The idea of putting powder in my hair made me think of our founding fathers who wore those crazy white wigs…and I was immediately turned off.

But, now I’m thinking those old dudes may have had the right idea…Aveda’s Pure Abundance Hair Potion is a truly amazing product that turned my unruly mess into a voluminous, textured, full-blown head of hair. This innovative new formula brews plant-derived ingredients into a high-performance styling tool that instantly transformed from a powder to a light, absorbent lotion.

In fact, it also increases the hair shaft’s diameter by up to 17%, which is awesome for girls like myself who have really fine hair. The potion is perfect for those mornings you’re running late for class since it contains silica, which helps absorb excess oil from scalp and hair and the potion can also be used on dry or wet locks to achieve multiple looks and styles. Not the cheapest product, but I definitely think an extra half hour in the morning is totally worth $22.00!
