Founded in 1978 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Aveda creates high-performance, plant-based products for beauty professionals and consumers. Aveda innovates by combining the principles of modern science and Ayurveda, the ancient healing art of India, to develop performance-driven hair, skin and body products. Made with pure flower and plant essences, products are created with respect for the Earth, alongside a comprehensive menu of ritual-based treatments for holistic beauty.

Invati is a system of 97-percent naturally derived products that reduces hair loss by 33 percent. Invati is powered by Densiplex, a complex of Ayurvedic herbs, which helps energize and rehabilitate the scalp around the follicles when massaged in. Invati includes a daily regimen that includes Exfoliating Shampoo, Thickening Conditioner and Scalp Revitalizer designed for guests experiencing signs of hair and scalp aging such as thinning, loss of volume, lack of density, or a tighter or drier scalp.

What is Aveda’s research and product development background?
Our goal is to ensure our products will benefit clients through exceptional performance while delivering the promise of environmental and social responsibility. Aveda’s products are formulated without parabens, phthalates or sodium lauryl sulfate. We believe in using what we call “green ingredients” in products whenever possible. The definition of a green ingredient requires that it meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • Naturally derived, or more than 50 percent of the molecule comes from a plant, non-petroleum mineral, water, or some other natural source
  • Certified organic
  •  Sourced from sustainable or renewable plant-based origins and does not negatively impact the ecosystems from which they are sourced

What charitable efforts is Aveda involved in?
We have long been committed to protecting clean water and ensuring safe access to it. Two villages near the organic farm that supplies organic turmeric to Aveda experienced water shortages and contamination during the summer seasons. This led the brand to partner with Global Greengrants Fund to help the communities address their water problems. In the dry season, the women of the villages used to spend three hours every morning and three hours every evening carrying water from a kilometer away. They now have six more hours in their days to help their children with schoolwork and to plant gardens to raise vegetables for their families.Aveda Global Creative Director Antoinette Beenders.
