Description

Why we love it:
Give damaged strands a second chance with Aveda Botanical Repair™ Bond-Building Pre-Shampoo Treatment. This ultra-nourishing gel-cream strengthens hair 3X in just one use, protecting against breakage and tangling while fortifying bonds from the inside out.

How it works:
Powered by Triple Action Strengthening Technology, this pre-shampoo treatment penetrates deep into the cortex, building new bonds and reversing past chemical damage—perfect for hair weakened by bleaching or heat styling. A nourishing macro green blend of avocado, green tea, and sacha inchi oils smooths, detangles, and prevents future breakage, while a plant-derived complex shields hair from environmental stressors.

How to use:
Apply generously to dry hair, working from roots to ends. Leave on for 5–10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with Botanical Repair™ Strengthening Shampoo and Conditioner for optimal results. Use weekly for mild to moderate damage or every wash day for more intense repair.

From the experts:
“Think of this as the foundation of your repair routine—applying to dry hair lets it penetrate deeply, rebuilding bonds before you even shampoo.”
