Our verdict

A very fast in-shower bond-building treatment that strengthens hair and adds shine without silicones. It is a step after conditioner, so it adds to a routine rather than replacing one.

Overview

Plant-powered bond-building molecules and lamellar liquid crystal technology drive this Aveda flash treatment, strengthening hair in a few seconds in the shower. Apply it after conditioner from roots to ends, wait briefly, then rinse.

Real repair in almost no extra shower time is the case for it, and it works on all hair types without silicones. It is designed to follow the Botanical Repair conditioner, which means one more product in the routine.

Who it's for

Suited to busy routines on breakage-prone, colored or heat-styled hair. People happy with a weekly long mask may not need a quick extra step.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Very short treatment time
  • More shine and smoothness
  • Vegan and B Corp brand
Cons
  • Extra step after conditioner
  • Claims from brand testing
  • Coconut floral scent
  • Generous use empties it faster

Performance notes

Small bond-building molecules move into the hair and reconnect broken links quickly, which is why the treatment works in seconds. Lactic acid and the liquid crystal base smooth the surface so it reflects more light.
