Hair Stylist Tips

Blow Drying Tips

Blow dry hair on low speed with high heat. And use a diffuser. This gives you defined, frizz-free curls. For extra lift and volume, flip head upside down when blow drying.

Finger-Drying Tips

Avoid running fingers through hair as it dries. It causes curls to separate and become frizzy. For on-the-go touch ups keep Be Curly™ Curl Control in your purse to redefine and de-frizz as needed throughout the day.

How to Towel Dry Your Hair

Always blot wet hair dry with a towel.
Don't rub—rubbing creates more frizz.

Insider Tip From Antoinette Beenders-
Award Winning Stylist

To cut blow-drying time in half, pre-style hair with Smooth Infusion Style-Prep Smoother after cleansing and conditioning. The exclusive plant blend creates a smooth surface on hair, and defends against humidity for up to 12 hours.

Reduce the Frizz. Enhance the Curl

Don't brush or comb curly hair when dry. It removes curl and causes frizz.

Revive Yesterday's Style

Pure Abundance Hair Potion soaks up excess oils and provides a matte texture- ideal for creating a "second-day" hair style

Reducing Frizz at Night

Wrap hair in a silk scarf before bed.
It helps prevent frizz while sleeping.

Skip The Blowout

If you have wavy or curly hair, there's no need to blow-dry hair. Simply apply Be Curly Curl Enhancer to towel-dried hair to tame frizz and intensify curls. The unique wheat protein blend expands when hair is wet and rtetracts when hair is dry- leaving you free to curl up with a good look.

Create A Sleek Ponytail

When you're behind schedule, run Light Elements Smoothing Fluid through hair and tie back in a ponytail. You'll add shine and tame flyaways with one simple step.

Use Aveda Products to Reduce the Frizz

Spritz curls with a firm hold hairspray. Pure Abundance™ Volumizing Hairspray prevents frizz in humid and/or windy conditions.

Esthetician's tips

What is the most modern way to wear blush?

Apply blush to the center of your cheeks using your iris as a guide for placement. With a blush brush, blend in a circular motion for a natural blushed finish. Finish with a small amount of Inner Light™ Shimmer Accent high on the cheek bone as a highlight. 

Can makeup help me look well-rested, even if I'm not?

To create a well-rested look using makeup, try enlivening your complexion by applying Inner Light™ Shimmer Accent with a blush brush over tinted moisturizer or liquid foundation—and lightly over concealer to brighten the under eye area..

I need help covering under eye circles. Which products will help me?

A concealer like Inner Light™ Concealer is the best choice for minimizing under eye circles. Concealer should be used minimally first in the area that needs the most coverage and then blended out seamlessly and invisibly to the surrounding areas.

Slow Down Aging with Healthy Choices

Eat fruits and vegetables that are high in anti-oxidants. These foods are highly colorful. Think of red, ripe tomatoes, broccoli, carrots and eggplant. 

Eat organic food whenever possible. This will ensure higher quality foods, and less contamination with additives, dyes, chemicals, pesticides and antibiotics. 

Consume a wide variety of whole grains, fresh or frozen vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds, greens and beans. 

Eat foods high in omega-3 fatty acids, low in processed ingredients and hydrogenated vegetable oils. 

Drink plenty of water—half your body weight in ounces per day. 

Do not eat foods containing hydrogenated oils. Limit all fried foods, saturated fats, refined oils and processed foods. 

How do I find the right foundation for my skin type?

Choosing a foundation that balances your skin type is the best way to achieve healthy looking skin. If your skin tends to be oil rich, a powder formula like Inner Light™ Dual Foundation minimizes and controls shine. If skin is dry and needs moisture, Inner Light™ Tinted Moisture provides a dewy, luminous finish.

Can I get that "smoky-eyed" look easily?

Try Petal Essence™ Eye Color in blue or brown tones. Think in threes: dark, medium and light. Encircle the eye with a medium tone and blend edges softly. Next, highlight the brow bone with a light shade, shimmer or matte. A smoky eyed look works best with the darkest tone connecting the upper and lower lash lines very close to the lashes.

 
Men's Hair Tips

What is different about the men's shampoo & conditioner versus Aveda's existing shampoos & conditioners?

Men's scalps are thicker than women's and on average can produce twice the level of oil. This can make men more prone to sensitivity, dryness, redness, irritation and other uncomfortable scalp conditions. The Aveda Men products were specifically developed to combat these unique challenges.
