A little about the product.... The Aveda Invati Ultra Advanced Collection was made to help people with hair loss and thinning hair due to breakage. The Invati Ultra Advanced 4-step System claims to reduce hair loss by 77%. And, each Aveda Invati product has a very high naturally derived percentage! **Aveda Invati Ultra Advanced Exfoliating Shampoo Light is made of 95% naturally derived ingredients. The Invati Exfoliating Shampoo is 100% Vegan, Leaping Bunny Certified, Silicone Free, Sulfate Free, Paraben-Free, Synthetic Fragrance Free, Mineral Oil Free, and Dermatologist Tested. My thoughts.... This is Step 1 of the Aveda Invati Ultra Advanced 4-step System. The Aveda Invati Exfoliating Shampoo is a really nice gel Shampoo...you would think it has Exfoliating beads or something in it to exfoliate but it doesn't. It has Salicylic Acid, derived from Wintergreen, which exfoliates hair and scalp. It's very gentle and lathers beautifully - a little bit lathers into a lot! I love the scent...Aveda calls it "Pure-Fume" - which is lavender, clary sage, Australian sandalwood, vanilla, and other plant and flower essences. What I smell is a very light, calming, clean, fresh, refreshing, and slightly sweet/citrus-y scent...it's beautiful! The scent is light enough and clean enough that I think it would be safe for people who are sensitive to fragrance. I have extremely long hair that is down to my butt, and it is naturally curly. I do suffer from hair loss and thinning hair...between extreme stress, medications, and breakage, I lose so much hair in the shower when I wash it. And, I lose tons of hair strands throughout the day. Since using the Aveda Invati Exfoliating Shampoo for the past few weeks, I have lost less hair in and out of the shower! I still lose some hair but not huge clumps like I was, which is absolutely amazing! And, my hair and scalp feel really clean...kinda like a weightless feeling - which I love! My hair doesn't feel dry at all, even though this is an exfoliating Shampoo. The Invati Exfoliating Shampoo did not seem to affect my professional hair color, even though the Shampoo has Salicylic Acid (which can strip hair color). I received a Mini Size of the Invati Exfoliating Shampoo and all of the other Invati products...I'd love to see what this Shampoo and the entire Invati Collection can do longterm! I'm so happy that I'm not losing a ton of hair anymore! Overall, I feel that the Aveda Invati Ultra Advanced Exfoliating Shampoo Light is absolutely worth buying, especially if you have hair breakage issues! I did get quite a few uses out of the mini size, which is a perfect way for anyone to give the Invati Exfoliating Shampoo a try! As for myself, I'll definitely be purchasing the full size! #aveda #invati #invatiultraadvanced

Acidic shampoo-peeling shampoo gently cleanses the scalp fro

Recently, I've been suffering from such a problem as excessive scalp oiliness and dandruff. To be honest, I didn't even read anything about it, thinking that it was a shampoo with scrubbing particles that cleans the scalp.Imagine my surprise when I poured a little shampoo into my palm and found not a single scrubbing particle. But first things first. So that's what it's all about! The shampoo contains salicylic acid and acts like an acid peel, dissolving all the dirt on your head, in simple terms.It has a rather liquid consistency, mustard color with a pronounced herbal aroma. I can hear rosemary the most. For an organic shampoo, it lathers quite well: you can achieve a good airy lather from the second time. But be careful: if you get the shampoo in your eyes, ... MoreRecently, I've been suffering from such a problem as excessive scalp oiliness and dandruff.

But be careful: if you get the shampoo in your eyes, they sting mercilessly.It was a shock for me when, after the first wash with this shampoo, I felt that my scalp seemed to be breathing. No, really, I don't remember ever experiencing anything like that. Freshness and lightness on the head. It seems that there is no hair at all, and every cell breathes.My hair felt like fluff after shampooing. And now the most important thing. I saw the result after the very first use: the dandruff didn't disappear completely, but it didn't fall into fine dust.

Exfoliates Well!

I received the invati ultra advanced™ exfoliating shampoo - light complementary for my honest review. I have struggled with hair loss over the last year and was very excited to try this new system. The shampoo is light and easy to use. It really exfoliated my scalp and hair and acted like a clarifying shampoo. It did not dry out my hair like other options, which I really liked! One of my favorite aspects of this shampoo is that it is free from a variety a Parabens and formaldehyde. I prefer to use products that do not have harsh chemicals and I was excited to see the product breakdown on their website. This system does take 12 weeks for full results and I am on week two but I have noticed a positive difference in the quality of my hair texture.

It does have a strong scent, to me like Teatree oil, however I do not see that listed in the ingredients. It states it's made with herbs, including ginseng, I found the scent was strong when washing but was not strong in my hair after styling. Overall, I really am enjoying this product and if you are looking for a more natural option for hair loss or strength, this would be a good one to try.

Gentle but thorough hair & scalp cleansing

I received this shampoo complimentary from Aveda - I only received the shampoo, not any of the other 3 products in the 4 step regimen, so my experience is with the shampoo alone. I am in my 40s, I have had straight, thin hair for my entire life. First thoughts - I LOVE the fragrance. It's probably not going to be a scent that everyone enjoys, but I love it. It's hard to describe, to my nose it smells like a soft, herbal lavender, almost a medicinal scent. It's not super strong, and I don't notice it in my hair after my hair is dry, so if you aren't a fan of the fragrance don't worry, you probably won't notice it for long. The shampoo lathers very well, I use a quarter-sized amount on my mid-back length hair and it's plenty. I air dry my hair after my shower.

The shampoo lathers very well, I use a quarter-sized amount on my mid-back length hair and it's plenty. I air dry my hair after my shower. The first time I used this shampoo I had one of the best hair days of my life. My hair was shiny, it was soft, it was voluminous and bouncy, my scalp felt super clean as well as hydrated. I used this shampoo again the following day, and it was a less great hair day; my hair felt slightly heavier and just a little bit limp. Still very shiny with a little bounce. I used it again for a 3rd day in a row and it was not a good hair day at all, my hair felt even heavier, limper, and less bouncy, but still very clean and shiny. I have this issue often with shampoos though, I tend to rotate brands every other day. I was hoping this would be one that I could use daily, but I'll stick to using it every 3 to 4 days. I don't think I have used it enough to be able to say that it is or is not making a difference in the thinness or hair loss that I experience, but I do like this shampoo, and I would buy it in the future.

Hair Loss Shampoo For Fine, Thin, Normal To Oily Hair Types

I Would Highly Recommend Anyone Try This

I received the Invati Ultra Advanced haircare bundle from Influenster and Aveda in exchange for my honest review. This bundle was by far my favorite that I have received so far. I got to try all 5 products in the set and received enough to last a whole month! It has a very nice and refreshing herbal scent. The shampoo leaves your hair and scalf feeling really clean and refreshed. The conditioner does an amazing job of detangling, smoothing and moisturizing. There is a leave in conditioner you can use. I did use it sometimes and sometimes did not to see the difference it makes. It actually adds to how long your hair stays smooth and frizz free. The scalp serum is something I loved! It left my scalp feeling tingly and fresh. And the mouse does a great job with ... MoreI received the Invati Ultra Advanced haircare bundle from Influenster and Aveda in exchange for my honest review.

It left my scalp feeling tingly and fresh. And the mouse does a great job with naturally curly hair. Helped me tame my curls without weighing them down or being too stiff. Overall, I believe its worth the money and worth trying out. I noticed less breakage and less hair in the brush, plus overall thicker, stronger, shinier hair which is what everyone would strive to see. Take the plunge, get the whole set. It's absolutely worth every penny.

It Seems to Work But I Hate the Smell

I received a sample of Aveda Invati Ultra Advanced Exfoliating Shampoo from Influenster for my honest review. The sample lasted me for about a week and I only used Aveda Invati haircare products so my other haircare products wouldn't interfere with seeing results. After about a week and a half I do notice that I am seeing a lot less hair in my hair brush, but the sample did not last long enough to see if I have any new hair growth. I wish the scent wasn't so medicinal and masculine smelling. I felt like I was borrowing my husband's shampoo and it really made me feel self conscious in public about not smelling good. I was honestly relieved when the samples ran out so I could return to using my own shampoo and hair products. I'm not sure if I would buy this product. ... MoreI received a sample of Aveda Invati Ultra Advanced Exfoliating Shampoo from Influenster for my honest review.

It seems to prevent hair loss and it is possible that it encourages new hair growth, but since the results were not more obvious I would prefer to take vitamins instead. If Aveda creates a more feminine scent I would be interested since I experienced postpartum hair loss after having two children.

Perfectly clean hair!

I was very happy to receive AVEDA shampoo for free as a gifted by Aveda. AVEDA invariably ultra advanced The shampoo is presented in an oblong plastic bottle. The design is laconic, nothing superfluous, very reminiscent of professional hair cosmetics. The bottle is moderately compact, fits comfortably in the hand, does not slip in wet fingers. The disc-top lid closes the bottle tightly, does not open spontaneously. The dispenser spout is convenient, economically releases the amount of shampoo needed for use, thereby saving its consumption. The composition of the shampoo is excellent, it does not contain aggressive sulfates, there are softer and completely safe alternative components to sulfates. In principle, the shampoo can safely be called sulfate-free. The ... MoreI was very happy to receive AVEDA shampoo for free as a gifted by Aveda.

In principle, the shampoo can safely be called sulfate-free. The shampoo has a gel texture of medium density. The texture is uniform, viscous and a little sticky. When in contact with water, it gives foam, not very lush, but comfortable for cleansing the scalp and hair. The aroma is pleasant, herbal with a cosmetic note. Not very pronounced, so it does not cause any discomfort. It is almost not felt on the hair. The foam is washed out perfectly, from the first time, the hair after washing is clean. The shampoo really cleans very well and with it the hair looks fresh and clean for 2 days.

Spa therapy for your scalp

I was gifted by Aveda the Invati Ultra Advanced Exfoliating Shampoo for thinning hair rich/riche in exchange for my honest opinion.I have fine, thin shoulder length hair that is shedding/thinning. This shampoo is just one product in the Invati Ultra Advanced 4-Step System to help with thinning hair. The salicylic acid helps to remove oil, build up and environmental elements that can clog pores. The scent is calming, yet invigorating with notes of Australian sandalwood, lavender and vanilla. This is good for normal to oily hair. The shampoo lathers up nicely. I did not have the conditioner and I would recommend getting that as well.Due to the salicyclic acid/exfoliating I found the shampoo to be a bit drying.After blow drying my hair it felt smooth, and looked ... MoreI was gifted by Aveda the Invati Ultra Advanced Exfoliating Shampoo for thinning hair rich/riche in exchange for my honest opinion.I have fine, thin shoulder length hair that is shedding/thinning.
