At Aveda, we believe in harnessing the power of natural ingredients. Quinoa protein helps strengthen and repair, buriti oil helps hydrate and soften, and acacia gum helps fill out fine hair. There are so many wholesome, natural ingredients that can keep our hair healthy, and aloe vera might be the most versatile of them all.

Aloe vera isn’t just great for hair; it helps our health from head to toe. This precious plant keeps us healthy from the inside out, from aiding in digestion to offering intense hydration.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF ALOE VERA

Many people know the aloe vera plant as a healer for sunburn, but its benefits stretch far beyond the world of after sun care. Aloe vera can be used topically, like it’s used on sunburn, or used in drinks like aloe vera juice.

One of aloe vera’s many benefits is that hydrating. Aloe is water-dense, which means it’s great for preventing dehydration. Just like skin and hair, your body needs plenty of hydration to stay healthy. An aloe vera drink can hydrate you after exercise or throughout the day.

Another health benefit of aloe vera is its aid in digestion. Aloe vera contains important enzymes that can help break down the food you eat and keep your digestive system healthy. Because it keeps your digestion running smoothly, it also helps you absorb the nutrients you eat.

Aloe vera doesn’t just help you absorb nutrients; the plant is actually full of vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Aloe vera contains vitamins B, C, and E, along with folic acid.

Drinking aloe vera juice can offer a range of health benefits, but it also provides several benefits for our skin and hair. Aloe vera benefits for skin range from hydration to treating sunburn, while the benefits for hair include added smoothness, shine, and curl definition.

ALOE VERA IN HAIR CARE

The benefits of aloe vera for hair are as plentiful as its benefits for the body. Not only does aloe vera contain nutrients that are great for our hair, but it also helps hydrate, cleanse, and define our hair.

Aloe can help cleanse your hair by absorbing excess oil and leaving hair healthy and shiny. It can even help define curls by taming frizz, adding smoothness, and infusing moisture.

Aloe vera is also an ideal hydrator both for your body and your hair. Because it’s full of water and moisture, it’s the perfect ingredient in a range of hair care products.
