I came across an Aveda sample ad a while back. I requested the sample which was scalp solutions overnight scalp renewal serum.
I’ve always enjoyed Aveda samples and have had good results with them. So I knew I wasn’t going to be disappointed by this one.
The product
This product is a scalp serum. You apply it to dry spots on your scalp after showering. I liked that it wasn’t too oily but was easy to work into the scalp. It gave me a slight tingle but nothing too irritating.
The serum has a citrus scent to me.

User experience
For me, the serum was easy to use. As I mentioned above you can apply it to wet or dry hair before bed. You part your hair into sections and can apply it to the scalp. You work it into the scalp and you’re done. I found that using the right amount may vary depending on the scalp area.
Since I have a sample tube I used a few drops at a time. I liked that the serum didn’t make my scalp oily. It did give me a slight tingle but that was about it. When I woke up in the morning I liked that my scalp felt hydrated.
The serum is clear and it’s not runny.
Final thoughts and where to buy
Final thoughts
Overall I liked Aveda Scalp Solutions Overnight Serum. It helped me with my dry scalp. It also hydrated my scalp. I still have a bit of the sample left so I’ll finish it off.
I liked that the serum didn’t make my scalp or hair oily. It also didn’t transfer onto my pillow either.
Where to buy
This product retails for around $56 (USD) and can be purchased from Aveda, Amazon, or where salon-quality products are sold.
