I would NOT buy this product again

No, I don't recommend this

I used Aveda Scalp Benefits products for years. They were excellent. Please bring them back. Scalp Solutions actually makes my scalp itchy!!! It is also very difficult to get a lather. I do not recommend it and will not buy it again.

Really disappointed with this product

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

No, I don't recommend this

I have used the Scalp benefits shampoo for years and absolutely loved it. It made my hair feel clean and my scalp really did benefit from using it. I told so many people about it. I was surprised to see that it had been changed to Scalp solutions but thought I would give it a try. I hate it, it makes my hair feel greasy and I need to use so much more of it. It doesn't feel clean at all and my scalp really isn't benefiting at all. I won't be buying it again. Please please please bring back the old one. Why would you change something that was so good?

Dissapointing!

scalp solutions shampoo leaves my with something like an oily film on my hair! It leaves it heavy and looks unwashed even though i just washed my hair! If you have oily and fine hair this is terrible! I do love Aveda products and I used to use scalp benefits shampoo before which was the best shampoo I ever had in my life. Very dissapointing and definitly not a replacement for the scalp benefits shampoo. Please bring it back again!

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

Yes, I recommend this

I have lots of fine hair and sensitive scalp and for years used 'Scalp benefits' which worked well for me but it tended to dry my hair so I balanced it with the quite moisturising 'Shampure' conditioner. I recently tried 'Scalp solutions' and I'm very pleased. My hair looks healthier and stays looking that way on day 2 which is brilliant because I try to wash my hair every other day.

I WILL NOT BUY THIS SHAMPOO AGAIN, IT'S THE WORST SHAMPOO

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

No, I don't recommend this

The worst shampoo ever. I don't recommend this shampoo to anyone. The previous SCALP BENEFITS BALANCING SHAMPOO was the best shampoo that I have used for years, but unfortunately discontinued for some reason. Bring back the original SCALP BENEFITS BALANCING SHAMPOO.

Make your own mind up!

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

Yes, I recommend this

I used the previous formula and, yes, it was lovely. However, I have been deterred from buying the new version because of the negative responses. All I can say is make your own mind up. I asked for a sample recently after my hair cut at Aveda as I did not want to purchase a large bottle but this shampoo is lovely! It lathered really well and cleaned thoroughly. My hair is so short that I don't need a conditioner. I do suffer with an itchy sensitive scalp so I am hoping it will help but so far so good. I WILL purchase a full size bottle.

Poor Substitute

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

No, I don't recommend this

I bought this because it seems Scalp Benefits had been discontinued. I had been using it for several years and it was THE best shampoo & conditioner for my hair and scalp. A luxurious product. I then try this thinking it must be a new and improved formula to find it leaves my hair lank and lifeless. My hair had no volume after washing and looked and felt awful. Please bring back scalp benefits and read the forums where other customers are now buying other brands.

CANNOT COMPARE TO SCALP BENEFITS

No, I don't recommend this

Absolutely awful. Left hair feeling unclean. Nothing like scalp benefits. Total waste of money and bottle is 50ml less than original scalp benefits.

Amazing new formula

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

Yes, I recommend this

I have used the old scalp solutions since it came out but always found it drying on my hair. This new formula is luscious in comparison! My scalp and hair feel hydrated and it has a new minty smell which just makes the experience bliss. Very very happy! Well done Aveda!

Would give no stars and would not recommend

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

No, I don't recommend this

I've used the scalp benefits shampoo and conditioner for years and have found it a very good product. I thought I would try the new scalp solutions balancing shampoo and conditioner and it was dreadful. My hair felt matted together after shampooing and the conditioner did not smooth it at all. I had to reshampoo and condition with scalp benefits before my hair felt normal. Will not be using it again. Expensive mistake.

Excellent

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

Yes, I recommend this

I was a scalp benefits user and was hoping this would be an effective replacement. It is. And I think it's better too. One thing to note: if you live in a soft water area (or have a water softener) then you probably don't to use the conditioner at all.

I have only just started using this but it smells amazing and my hair is so much healthier. It is also helping my scalp which was the main reason I bought this. Worth the price.

Disappointing

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

No, I don't recommend this

I bought the travel size as I wanted to give it a try before buying the bigger size. I tried using it as part of the 3-step system as well alone with a different Aveda conditioner, and unfortunately I was still left with greasy film on my roots. It was as if I had used hairspray leaving my strands separated, but also when I lifted the top sections of my hair up, my hair underneath was greasy.

Best Shampoo and Conditioner combo!

Originally posted on aveda.co.uk

Yes, I recommend this

I was lucky enough to secure a sample of the Scalp Solutions Balancing Shampoo and Conditioner. After just one wash my hair felt smooth and sleek; even when completely wet! Having used a few times I've seen a noticeable difference in the texture of my hair and seen great results post heat styling too. Be interested to see the differences over a longer period of time. Worked through hair using the scalp brush which was great to ensure it was really evenly distributed!
