Aveda Damage Remedy Restructuring Shampoo for Damaged Hair — 8.5 fl oz, quinoa protein & gentle babassu cleanser

Aveda Damage Remedy Restructuring Shampoo is a 92% naturally derived cleansing formula designed to help repair and strengthen hair weakened by heat, chemical processes, and everyday styling.

This gentle shampoo combines quinoa protein and a babassu oil–derived cleanser to remove buildup while supporting hair resilience. It’s formulated without animal-derived ingredients, SLS/SLES, synthetic fragrance, parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, paraffin, or formaldehyde donors. Use it as the first step in a routine with Restructuring Conditioner or Intensive Restructuring Treatment for more intensive repair.

How does this shampoo help damaged hair in the shower?

The formula cleanses without stripping, while quinoa protein helps reinforce weakened strands. The babassu-derived surfactant lifts dirt and pollutants gently so hair feels cleaner and less brittle.

• Quinoa protein supports surface strength and smoothness.
• Babassu oil–derived cleanser removes residues without harsh sulfates.
• Light foam rinses easily, leaving hair primed for conditioner.

Will it work for chemically treated or heat-styled hair?

Yes — the shampoo is formulated for hair with physical and chemical damage. It sets a foundation for follow-up treatments that rebuild and hydrate the hair fiber.

• Safe for color-treated hair when used as directed.
• Designed to address damage from heat tools, bleaching, and frequent styling.
• Pairs best with Aveda Restructuring Conditioner or Intensive Restructuring Treatment for full repair support.

What makes this a “naturally derived” formula?

The product meets ISO 16128–based criteria, so most ingredients come from plants, non-petroleum minerals, and water. That natural sourcing is combined with lab-optimized actives for performance and sensory consistency.

• 92% of the formula is naturally derived according to ISO 16128.
• Includes plant-based proteins and a babassu-derived surfactant.
• Formulated without common synthetic additives like SLS, parabens, and phthalates.

How should I use this shampoo for best results?

Use a small amount on wet hair, massaging to a light lather and rinsing thoroughly. Follow with Restructuring Conditioner or use Intensive Restructuring Treatment weekly for deeper repair.

• Apply to wet hair, massage scalp to distribute, then rinse.
• Follow immediately with Aveda Restructuring Conditioner for daily care.
• For intensive repair, apply Intensive Restructuring Treatment weekly after shampooing.

Who is this for: Aveda Damage Remedy Restructuring Shampoo is suited for people with hair compromised by heat styling, chemical services (like bleaching or perming), or regular mechanical stress. It’s a good fit for anyone seeking a gentler, plant-forward cleansing option that supports stronger-feeling hair while avoiding many common synthetic ingredients. Ideal for users who prefer vegan, cruelty-free brands and want a reliable shampoo to pair with restructuring conditioners and treatments.
