Has anyone tried that generic immitation of Aveda called Aura?

Hi,I tried Aura as did Jeff and another friend of ours. It made my hair tangle and knot like crazy. Jeff and our friend did not have good results with it either.I would not recommend any of their products. Just my opinion, but I found them to contain a lot of chemicals and not be anything like Aveda.Suave also has an Aveda "copy" that I have not tried yet. But it is sitting on my sink ready to be tested when I get up the nerve.Best wishes,Karen> I heard that a lot of the aura products (such> as the conditioners) can't compare to Aveda.

Hi Noreen,I can't wait for your report.Just today I was telling Jeff how great his hair looked and he told me that he had worked out a routine where he uses Aveda Blue Malva and Artec Conditioner and then ARTec shampoo and ARTec conditioner and then ARTec with Cherry Almond Bark.He said that he has noticed his hair is a lot softer and looks great when he does the alternating routine.I think that is true for me too.I can't wait to hear what you discover.Best wishes,Karen> Hi Karen,> I just noticed the Suave "Shampure"> immitation tonight at the store.
