Aveeno Nourish and Volumizing Shampoo Strengthens Hair
Shampoo manufacturers have their hands full. No matter how popular a specific brand/style might be, they still have to develop new products- products that are better than those presently available or that have unique qualities that set them apart from the competition. One common trend is to create shampoos with exotic ingredients and one good example is **Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo**, a Johnson & Johnson product. **Shampoo Commentary:** Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo is a thick shampoo containing special ingredients intended to strengthen hair and add body. This shampoo is made with wheat and blue lotus flowers- two ingredients that add extra nourishment to hair. Because of these qualities, this product is meant for those with fine, thin, or limp hair that could use a lift every now and then. As I said above, shampoos with unusual ingredients are becoming more and more common every day as manufacturers look for new ways to make shampoo that will appeal to a different audience. I have sampled sveeral of them and what I have found is that with some, the exotic ingredients are really no better than standard shampoo. But with others, the special ingredients do make a difference and Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo is one of them. With this shampoo, hair really does appear fuller and individual strands of hair seem stronger and less likely to break off easily. As I said, Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo offers two items not normally found in shampoo: wheat complex and blue lotus flower. These are the ingredients that are intended to strengthen the hair by fortifying the hair shaft with protein, making it stronger and less likely to break. This certainly sounds appealing and it will likely attract the interest of those with fine and/or thinning hair. I was skeptical when I first heard this claim, but I was willing to try the shampoo and then put the product to the test. And my results have been positive. My hair tends to break off easily- a simple action like running my fingers through my hair, similar to what you would do with a comb, will often result in multiple strands of hair breaking free. After using Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo for a couple of days and then performing the same action, I find that I don't have this problem anymore. There might be one or two loose strands, but that is it. As for cleaning ability, Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo does a very good job. It cleans nicely and rinses away very quickly. It also offers a fresh, soapy scent that is gender neutral so that most anyone can use it. My hair is short, so there is no need to wash it a second time. A single washing is all it takes to get the hair clean. Looking for something wrong with Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo, I can find two things, and they are related to each other: The amount of product in each bottle and the price per ounce. There isn't as much shampoo in this tall, narrow bottle as there is in the containers of other shampoo products, but the cost is greater than that of most other shampoos. This means that the price per ounce is significantly higher with Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo. The manufacturer likely knew the product's sales would decline if the bottle was larger (the standard size Aveeno shampoo bottle is only 10.5 ounces) because the price would be psychologically out of reach and beyond most budgets. So, they decided to package it in a smaller bottle, which means it will not last very long. **Bottom- Line Viewpoint:** Aveeno Nourish and Volumize Shampoo is a very good product that does, indeed, strengthen the hair as it promises and offers a nice level of clean. I wish the bottle was a little larger and the price a little lower, but this is still a very good hair care product with plenty of positive qualities. It makes a good choice for those whose hair is flat, limp, and could use a little strengthening.
