QuoteReplyTopic: HELP! AVEDA COLOR SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER Posted: January 12 2000 at 2:28am
Hi I am trying to figure out which is the best Aveda color conditioner and shampoo for my color hair. It is medium brown with gold and copper highlights. I am not sure if I should go with Madder Root or Clove. The Madder Root says its for hair with warm and reddish highlights and the Clove is for warm and honey colored hair. It seems like either one might work, but if anyone can let me know what their opinion is I will greatly appreciate it!Leslie

I think which one you want to use depends on what effect you wish to achieve. Madder Root will bring out the red in your hair (I've used this myself, so I know). Clove, I believe, is intended to bring out brown and honey tones. (I haven't tried the Clove myself - it contains coffee, to which I am allergic.)If you want to bring out the red, use the Madder Root. If you don't, use the Clove. Or try them both and see which you like better. The descriptions on the bottles and tubes are not hard and fast rules - even though the Camomile is intended for blonde hair, I have used it myself with some nice effects. Don't feel constrained by the labels.Laura Janelswanson@sunflower.bio.indiana.edu

I think the main thing is that you shouldn't be using any of the shampoos for darker hair on blonde hair. Otherwise I don't think you can really go wrong, although one or the other may work better on your hair.-jj
