I LOVE THIS SCENT! it’s calming, slightly earthy and Aveda has so many products with the Shampure scent. I use the composition oil straight out of the shower after using the shampoo, conditioner and body wash along with it.

this is my favorite hair gel for slick backs. it is thick, sticky and has GREAT hold. it doesn’t flake and doesn’t look greasy either.
