Aveda Thickening Tonic Rules!

[@kellyr6075]

Love your enthusiastic presentation. I love Aveda and contacted Aveda CS Dept, if this product thickens hair in long term, or only gives appearance of thicker hair, while it’s on? They could not answer the question between them, so it’s a bit of a misleading claim.

[@DeronEdward]

Thanks for the kind words! I’d say it certainly physically and visibly thickens hair, but yes it washes out so it’s cosmetic, as opposed to changing the actual structure of your hair or how it grows out of the scalp. That being said, I wouldn’t underestimate how big of an impact that thickening effect can have on how someone feels about their hair.

[@sareb2902]

I’m confused about which is best? Volumisingbor thickening? Please help 😚

[@DeronEdward]

They are both great but they do different things, do you need thickness, volume or both?

[@hsl2208]

Deron Edward I’m looking for both, what should I use

[@DeronEdward]

If you really only want one product thickening tonic will probably get you closer to your goal, I could easily recommend using both tho, thickening tonic first and then volumizing tonic over top of it 👍🏻

[@sareb2902]

Deron Edward thanks so much for your reply! Much appreciate x x

I used to use only Aveda. Had to stop for 2 reasons. I’m now on disability because of migraines so I can’t afford it anymore. Second reason one day my head just couldn’t take the smell anymore. Gave me such bad migraines. I wish I could because my hair has gotten so thin. Getting older plus have hypothyroid. I miss my pretty hair.

[@DeronEdward]

I’m sorry to hear that Lisa 🫂

[@ghhm2705]

Lisa, if you haven’t already, look into healing your gut to improve or resolve migraines. Our bodies are miraculous, it all works together! Many migraine sufferers also have leaky gut syndrome.

Hi thanks for your video. I really want to use this tonic to thicken my hair. Can I use this before I go to bed? so I shampoo, apply this tonic, blow-dry and then sleep? Or is this mainly for styling so I should shampoo after using it? thank you!

[@DeronEdward]

You could definitely apply blow dry and then sleep, it works best if you apply right before you blowdry, but after that it’s fine until you shampoo again

[@putrimae9377]

Can make hair growth faster with thickening aveda?

[@DeronEdward]

We can’t claim anything about hair growth or speed, only that it thickens your existing hair and reduces breakage😊

[@LeilaVividSounds]

I have natural curly hair that has recently thinned out. I don't want to blow dry my hair and cause heat damage to my already fine stands. Does this tonic actually penetrate the strands and thicken root to tip? If I air dry my hair will it not work so well? I don't wear my hair in blow out styles very often.

[@DeronEdward]

Great question Leila! Sorry to hear your hair has thinned out, Thickening Tonic should still do its job, but remember it has a grippy feel to it, so you might want to offset that with some heavy conditioning, I’ve used Aveda Be Curly Curl Enhancer on my hair with Thickening Tonic and loved it, and my hair is fairly fine and delicate. It should work great without heat!

[@triliciouslyraw587]

Does it work as a heat protectant as well? Or do i need to apply something else before flat ironing.. and if so, what would u suggest for older baby fine hair with frizz? Thanks!! :)

[@DeronEdward]

It isn’t billed as a heat protectant but it does have some to it, sounds perfect for your hair, have you tried blow drying with a boar bristle brush?

[@Lucy-mf5gk]

Do I have to blowdry? And does it work if I apply on dry hair ?

[@DeronEdward]

Blow drying does help the thickening action, if you apply to dry hair you will still want to hit it again with a blowdryer to set it

[@marthahuizar8466]

Can I use thickening tonic in conjunction with volumizing tonic?

[@DeronEdward]

Totally! I usually saturate the hair with thickening tonic and brush it through damp hair first, and then layer on the volumizing tonic 🙂

[@tinkabell39]

@@DeronEdward my question answered. Thank you!

[@TheDaasha]

I’m a new user of aveda and avoiding heat .. I used the thickening tonic as a serum and my hair turned hard the next day.. any suggestions how can I make the product work for me without blow drying my hair .. thx for your help !

[@DeronEdward]

Unfortunately thickening tonic really depends on heat to work properly 😬 if you are looking for a thickening solution that doesn’t require heat I’d look at the Invati Advanced system

[@TheDaasha]

@@DeronEdward thank you so much 😊

[@sabeehahmad5303]

@Deron Edward what product in invati advanced system can be used for styling with no heat ?

[@DeronEdward]

I’d say all of it is suitable! Thickening foam included

[@janinekateff9629]

Can you use volumizing tonic and thinking tonic at the same time? Or should O use one at a time?

[@DeronEdward]

You definitely can Janine! I would apply the thickening tonic first, comb or brush it through and then apply the volumizing tonic 😊

[@relentlessxasf8770]

Do i have to use shampoo everyday to wash it out or can i just use conditioner in the shower?

[@DeronEdward]

I’ve honestly never really tested that particular scenario, but I imagine as long as you manipulate the conditioner really well in your hair you’d be fine, BUT there’s a new Aveda Invati Thickening Foam that I like even better than Texture Tonic, I need to make a video on it 😮

[@dklc28]

How do I use it with the nutriplenish leave in? Before or after? Thanks

[@DeronEdward]

I would apply the nutrients leave in first, brush it through, then apply the thickening tonic 😊

[@dklc28]

@@DeronEdward thank you!

[@WabbleDeeDabbleDee]

Can I use the aveda thickening tonic followed by a sea salt spray? If so do I have I wait for the thickening tonic to dry in my hair before applying the salt spray? Would you also use the thickening tonic everyday? Thanks :)

[@DeronEdward]

Sure you could! Although I do believe thickening tonic works best with a blowdry, so I would only use it on days you shampoo your hair, and just reapply your salt spray everyday

[@WabbleDeeDabbleDee]

Deron Edward ah thanks! So should I use the sea salt spray after blow drying my hair then? Or when its towel dried? Sorry for all the questions, I’m not knowledgable on this subject xD

[@DeronEdward]

Sea salt spray you can use on damp or fully dry hair, but thickening tonic really needs the heat of the blow dry to work properly :)

[@WabbleDeeDabbleDee]

Deron Edward I got it! Thanks for replying!

[@jenlambert7]

Maybe this us the solution I’m looking for for my baby fine and low density hair . The lady in the video has way better hair than me 😢

[@DeronEdward]

Have you ever looked at the Invati line?

[@jenlambert7]

Deron Edward no but I will ! My hair has always been baby fine but I’m sure it’s thinned out since I’m 47 now.

[@aniketsaharan692]

is it okay to use it every day?

[@DeronEdward]

Yes totally!

[@zaimaziz6412]

Hi any update, would u recommend this

[@DeronEdward]

I absolutely recommend it, mainly for people that blowdry

[@Footballon-xi2tt]

How much time do i use in week and when?

[@DeronEdward]

You could use it after any shower or bath 👍🏻

[@Footballon-xi2tt]

@@DeronEdward evrey day?

[@DeronEdward]

If you shampoo every day yes, if not maybe every other

[@Footballon-xi2tt]

@@DeronEdward If I shower at night then put the product on the hair can I sleep with it or should To take him out?

[@DeronEdward]

You can sleep with it in, but you might want to wet your hair down in the morning, sleeping on the tonic could make for pretty strong cowlicks

[@kirankarani7457]

can we use it if we don't blow dry our hair and let it dry naturally?

[@DeronEdward]

You could but it won’t be as effective as when blowdried

[@kirankarani7457]

and is it effective long term or just whilst you are wearing it?

[@DeronEdward]

It’s cosmetic, it comes out with shampoo

You seem to have more product knowledge than the useless CS team at Aveda, between them. Will watch your videos from now on, perhaps you could train them up.
