Botanical Repair™ Strengthening Shampoo 50ml

I used this in combination with the conditioner. I used it a few times but it made my hair increasingly dry, brittle and straw-like and after several uses my scalp was severely irritated and very itchy. I had to discontinue use and my hair texture has not yet recovered, so far from repairing it has caused more damage. I will not be using Aveda hair care again.

I have used this particular shampoo for years and it was my holy grail. I can no longer use it as it causes my scalp to itch like crazy and I always seem to shed more when I use this. It seems to be reformulated or some ingredients may have changed but I will use something else now.

This product has caused terrible shedding for my hair. At first I thought it's just because hair needs time to get used to a new product. But it got worse and worse and now for certain I can say that my hair is awfully shedding because of this product. My scalp feels dry and it's a bit flaky after using this product. My hair has gotten horribly dry and sheds so bad that I'm looking for clinical treatments! awful just awful!

I have used Aveda products for some time and have always been impressed. But not with this shampoo. It left my hair like straw and really dry. Also it was very flyaway and out of control. Sorry this was not for me. So glad that I didn’t buy the full size one.

Travel size Great for my fine hair. Have used large size for some time and it definitely suits my very straight fine hair. Bought this for travel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found this Shampoo worked very well with my fine hair. It lathered well, rinsed easily and gave me very good results.

I bought the Botanical Repair shampoo after trying the Botanical repair mask - which is wonderful. However, the shampoo couldn't be more different. It leaves my fine hair bone dry, like sandpaper. Have been using Aveda products for the last 20 years and so disappointed in this shampoo. Will not by again.

Recommend to trial this first, to me it smells like old, wet socks - not the spa experience I have come to expect from Aveda. I love natural scents, including the Sap Moss, so not sure what went wrong here. The product itself it up to par, but no better than any other Aveda offering and so not justifying a higher price point. A case of marketing over substance unfortunately. A miss for me.

This shampoo is not for me l use the leave in conditioner which I love but the shampoo no ,made my hair a bit fluffy soft and after a few days it was very dry. Not for me.

This shampoo is perfect for my hair. I have coily hair that isn't dry and have never found a shampoo that cleans my scalp without drying out my hair - till now. My head feels so weird because I am so used to itching and pain from having to detangle after tangles caused by too drying or too moisturising shampoos. Please do not discontinue this product. Best shampoo ever.

I was given the shampoo, conditioner and leave in treatment for a gift. My hair was really out of condition and very dry. The results have been AMAZING!! Two months later my hair is in great condition, and my hairdresser noticed the difference.

Been using the colour shampoo but found this better made my fine hair fuller and gives a lovely shine to it and followed with strengthening leave in treatment which I got as a free gift. Also makes blow drying my hair easier and looks smoother.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It helped add shine to my dull hair and strengthen it so hair doesn't fall when brushed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Made my hair feel clean and healthy. Looked really shiny after using.
