As an experienced Aveda Artist, many of Ronnie’s clients come to him with concerns of hair thinning. He recommends the 94% naturally derived^* invati men^™ system to help thicken hair and help keep the hair they have.^** The 2-step system includes invati men^™ nourishing exfoliating shampoo and invati men^™ scalp revitalizer.

The first step is to cleanse and exfoliate the scalp. A clean scalp helps promote healthy-looking hair, which is why it’s essential to remove impurities and dead skin cells from the scalp for a clean foundation. Formulated with wintergreen-derived salicylic acid, the invati men^™ nourishing exfoliating shampoo helps remove build-up and excess sebum (aka oil) that can clog pores. It renews the scalp and conditions to help strengthen thinning hair.

The second step uses invati men^™ scalp revitalizer, which was created with amla to instantly thicken hair at the root. A potent blend of plant actives helps invigorate the scalp when massaged in. When used with invati men^™ nourishing exfoliating shampoo, this 2-step system reduces hair loss. ^** Give your dad, boyfriend, or any other guy the shower tools he needs to help strengthen thinning hair.

Ronnie’s list of go-to styling products start with our 98% naturally derived^* nutriplenish^™ leave-in conditioner, from the vegan, silicone and paraben free nutriplenish^™ collection. As a hair care staple, Ronnie loves using this lightweight leave in conditioner to help tame frizzy hair.

Perfect for all hair types and textures, it’s formulated with omega-5-rich organic pomegranate oil that will help make any man’s hair soft and more manageable. We also harnessed the power of sand ginger to create a naturally derived UV filter, that helps protect hair from the drying effects of the sun. And if the guys in your life use a blow dryer, nutriplenish^™ leave-in conditioner protects hair from thermal styling up to 450 degrees, for a gift he’ll use daily.

Ronnie also recommends aveda men pure-formance^™ grooming clay. A product of simplicity and high performance, this styling clay easily creates texture with a strong, pliable hold and leaves a no-fuss matte finish. Your dad, brother or guy friend will love its spray formula, which gives control to create any style. What’s more, this is a gift you can feel good about giving: it’s packaged in a jar made of 100% post-consumer recycled HDPE, which helps keep new plastic out of landfills.

Ronnie’s ultimate mens hair care and body care recommendation is the silicone, paraben and mineral free rosemary mint collection. A reason to skip morning coffee, this best-selling collection features an invigorating aroma and cooling effect that helps kick start the day. Featuring an essential oil blend of certified organic rosemary, peppermint and spearmint, the scent of each product helps energize, awaken the senses and improve focus.

Upgrade your giftee’s shower tools and routine with our 97% naturally derived^* rosemary mint purifying shampoo and rosemary mint weightless conditioner. This shampoo is formulated with micelles to gently remove product build-up and other impurities without disrupting the natural balance of scalp & hair. White vinegar helps to gently purify and hair is left feeling squeaky clean.

Our rosemary mint weightless conditioner uses plant-based conditioners to add body and help prevent tangles and static. And to round out the perfect mens shower set trio, add on our rosemary mint hand and body wash. Its gentle cleansing formula helps restore skin’s balance for frequent washing. Ronnie tells us this collection is a perfectly-priced option and a great line for men who want a rejuvenating feeling every day.
