Rosemary Mint Purifying Shampoo

The best combination treatment ever!

I use this in conjunction with the Aveda Rosemary Mint Conditioner and it has done wonders for my hair! I'm constantly touching my hair so it gets greasy quite quickly and prior to this combination I had to wash my hair every single morning. But now with the aid of this magical duo, I can go three days or more with it still looking fresh and ready to roll.

I would buy again

I love this shampoo and the rosemary mint scent. I've heard great things about Aveda from close friends and this was the one that was recommended to me. The Rosemary Mint scent lingers and keeps my hair feeling fresh all day, love it!!

Has solved my psoriasis problem

I have had psoriasis of the scalp since I was a teenager, and the only products that seemed to tame this were selenium based products that were horrible to used and made my hair and hands smell horrible. I tried using this after a chat with a trichologist, and it worked. My psoriasis no longer bothers me, and it slowly comes back if I stop using the shampoo. It can dry your hair out, but I have short hair, and this is not a massive issue for me, but if using on longer hair you will need a decent conditioner as well.

Disappointing

I REALLY wanted to like this shampoo, but unfortunately my hair has become increasingly dry - even after experimenting with using the conditioner just on the ends and also from root to tip. My hairdresser recommended buying more expensive shampoo and washing my hair once a week instead of more frequently. After my haircut I left it a week (which was tough!), and washed with an eco shampoo bar (to avoid my high-street ordinary shampoos that my hairdresser advised against) that ordinarily didn't do anything great, but it was amazing! My hair looked like it had always 'just been brushed', very full and shiny. I knew that the bar wasn't great for the long term, so I took the hair quiz on the Aveda website and bought this Rosemary and Mint shampoo and conditioner. I was really hoping the same thing would happen again. It has been so disappointing. My hair is now so dry. I chose this shampoo as I live in an area with hard water and thought the purifying aspect would help. Also the shampoo my hairdresser used at my haircut was of a similar variety designed to focus on cleaning your hair, but it was aloe vera and mint by Kevin Murphy. I have been washing my hair only once a week, using the conditioner as well, and I use hair oil on the ends of my hair and to tame fly-aways. I don't know what to do! I have these huge litre bottles now.

A little on the thin side

I previously used the clove shampoo, and found this to be thinner and less pungent. It may be better for fairer hair, but being a brunette with fairly thick hair I would definitely recommend something thicker/stronger.
