AVEDA Color Control Conditioner for Color-Treated Hair — 6.7 fl oz, Silicone-Free & 97% Naturally Derived for Shine

AVEDA Color Control Conditioner is a silicone-free, 97% naturally derived* formula that conditions, detangles, seals the cuticle, and helps maintain color vibrancy for all hair types.

Designed to protect the look and feel of color-treated hair, this conditioner blends plant-derived ingredients, omega-9-rich apricot oil, and Aveda’s Botanical Acid Complex to smooth the hair surface and reduce color fade. Its lightweight, vegan formula rinses clean without adding heavy silicones, and it carries Aveda’s Pure-Fume aroma of osmanthus, organic orange, cypress, and cedarwood. The product is formulated without animal-derived ingredients, gluten, mineral oil, SLS/SLES, synthetic fragrance, parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, paraffin, or formaldehyde donors.

How does this conditioner help preserve hair color between salon visits?

The formula targets the hair cuticle and surface to lock in pigment and enhance shine, helping color look fresher longer. Regular use alongside a color-safe shampoo reduces the rate of visible fading from washing and environmental stressors.

• Seals cuticle to reduce color leaching during washes
• Botanical Acid Complex smooths hair for reflective shine
• Apricot oil’s omega-9 helps restore surface softness
• Silicone-free to avoid buildup that can dull color

Will this conditioner detangle without weighing hair down?

Yes — the lightweight, naturally derived emollients and slip agents condition strands to ease combing without the heavy feel of silicones. That makes it suitable for fine hair that needs manageability as well as thicker textures that require extra smoothing.

• Provides detangling slip for easier combing and reduced breakage
• Leaves hair soft and silky without residue
• Works on straight, wavy, curly, and coily hair types

Is this product safe for highlighted and chemically treated hair?

This conditioner is formulated for color-treated, highlighted, and chemically processed hair and avoids ingredients that can irritate or build up. It’s designed to be gentle while addressing the specific needs of treated hair — moisture balance, cuticle sealing, and color retention.

• Free from sulfates and harsh preservatives that strip color
• Vegan and free of animal-derived ingredients
• Compatible with Aveda Color Control Shampoo and Leave-In Treatment

How should I use it to get the best color-care results?

Apply after shampooing: work a quarter-sized amount through mid-lengths to ends, leave for one to three minutes if desired, then rinse thoroughly. For best maintenance, pair with Color Control Shampoo and use the Leave-In Treatment or a weekly mask as needed.

• Use daily or as recommended by your stylist
• Concentrate on ends and colored areas for targeted protection
• Combine with color-safe styling and UV protection practices

Who is this for? AVEDA Color Control Conditioner suits anyone looking to extend the life and luster of salon color without silicones — from people with subtle highlights to those with bold, all-over color. It’s a good choice if you want a plant-forward, salon-quality conditioner that detangles, reduces breakage, and enhances shine while avoiding common harsh ingredients. Pair it with the rest of the Color Control system for a coordinated routine that supports longer-lasting color and smoother hair texture. *Per ISO 16128 standard: from plants, non-petroleum minerals, and water.
