I Swear By the Strengthening Shampoo Shoppers Say Heals Strands That 'Break Like Crazy'

It’s a game-changer for my split ends.

Let’s face it — it isn’t easy to maintain healthy hair . Anything from heat styling, coloring, overwashing, to simply wearing tight ponytails can damage your tresses. Personally, I’m guilty of a few of these causes, which is why I have an overwhelming amount of hair care products to save my weakened strands . Among them, Aveda’s Botanical Repair Strengthening Shampoo is a game-changer for those who constantly struggle with hair breakage, like me.

The restorative hair treatment cleanses away excess oil and buildup as it mends hair bonds thanks to plant-based ingredients such as avocado , green tea , and sacha inchi oils (rich in vitamin E ). In turn, it improves hair’s elasticity, treats and prevents breakage, as well as reveals smoother and softer strands.

In a previous Shape interview, salon owner and licensed cosmetologist Anna Peterson explained that it’s essential to protect these hair bonds as they hold your strands together to keep your hair healthy. "When these bonds are damaged, it can lead to hair that is weak, brittle, and more susceptible to breakage and split ends.”

I agree that the Aveda Botanical Strengthening Shampoo is beneficial for reviving strands, particularly when it comes to fixing my split ends. After a few uses, my hair was less likely to break and shed, despite applying heat to my hair every two weeks. There weren't any noticeable improvements in my hair’s length, however this bond-repairing treatment creates a denser, silkier appearance.

Reviewers also noted that this strengthening shampoo improved their hair’s health, too. “It instantly makes my hair feel softer, healthier, stronger, less frizzy, and easier to manage,” an Amazon shopper said after one use. A second user shared that it repaired their hair, which used to “break like crazy.” Another customer added that their thinning hair is “more manageable and stronger,” while a Nordstrom reviewer noticed an “immediate difference” in their thinning hair looking “healthier and fuller.”

Treat yourself to the $39 Aveda Botanical Repair Strengthening Shampoo that deeply cleanses the scalp and tackles breakage. For the best results, I recommend using other products from Aveda’s Botanical Repair collection, including its conditioner and leave-in treatment, which start at $14 for a travel size bottle.
