Product placement

Aveda One for All leave in Elixir ACTS - it is sprayed onto hair to detangle, smooth, control frizz, add shine, and provide a base for styling. Removing it would change the hair prep process shown. Aveda (brand) APPEARS as a logo on the product bottle. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.

Transcript

Everyone sees the revealed, but this is the part that actually makes the difference. For me, it all starts fresh out of the shower. Before I wrap my heatless curls, this is the most important step. This is the Aveda One for All leave in Elixir. I love that it's one product with 25 benefits. So I'm not reaching for a bunch of different hair products. It helps detangle, smooths my hair, controls frizz. It also adds shine and gives me the smoothest base before styling. Using the right product to prep my hair makes such a difference before I roll my overnight curls. Then I do my overnight curls and let them work their magic. This is why I always say good hair starts before you even style it. Turns out the secret wasn't the heatless curls, it was definitely how I prep my hair first.
