Fresh Starts - Add These Shower Scents to Your Great Morning Routine
August 20, 2021From a crisp sunrise to that citrus shot at the start of your day, all the way to that cool shower after an early morning workout, nothing boosts a mood better than a fresh start. So it’s no surprise that when choosing hair care, we gravitate toward energizing scents that make us feel brand new. At a time when we could all use a bit of inspiration to bolster us through a long day, we’ve made a list of hair care products with fresh scents that match your needs and add to your great morning routine.
So what does it mean to smell fresh?
Scents matter. They are tied to our emotions and memory. In the hair care world, they mean a lot too. We follow a fragrance wheel where fresh scents are defined as clean and energizing. The fresh fragrance family offers a range of notes from citrus scents to tropical fruits, freshly cut grass, and some floral notes.
Here are some of our favorite scents to fit different hair needs.
Therapeutic Herbal Aroma
Like a green smoothie for your hair, detox your scalp and flush away some stress carried over from the day before with Aveda Rosemary Mint shampoo, P1,200 . With a relaxing blend of rosemary to soothe plus and peppermint to energize, , this scent helps draw out your fatigue and anxiety, while mildly cleansing scalp and strands.

Summer scents remind us of deep hydration. Enjoy a blend of coconut, avocado, green tea, and some sacha inchi seed oil with every Aveda Botanical Repair Light Strengthening Kit, P6,700 .
