Aveda Sun Care Hair & Body Cleanser — 8.5 fl oz | Color‑Safe, Sulfate‑Free Chlorine + Salt Remover with Coconut & Tamanu Oils

Aveda Sun Care Hair & Body Cleanser is a two-in-one, color-safe wash that rinses away chlorine, salt, and product residue while helping restore moisture.

After time in pools, oceans, or under the sun, mineral buildup and salt can leave hair and skin feeling dry and weighed down. This lightweight, 96% naturally derived* formula combines plant-sourced cleansers and a corn-derived chelating ingredient to lift chlorine and hard-water minerals, while botanical oils help replenish moisture without stripping color-treated hair.

How does this cleanser remove chlorine and salt without harsh sulfates?

The formula uses a babassu-derived cleansing system and a corn-based chelator that target and loosen chlorine, salt crystals, and mineral deposits so they rinse away easily. It avoids SLS/SLES and other aggressive surfactants, relying on gentler, plant-derived materials to cleanse effectively.

• Corn-derived chelator breaks bonds with pool minerals for easier removal.
• Babassu-based surfactants lift salts and residues without over-drying.
• Sulfate-free formulation suitable for frequent post-swim use.

Will this product keep my color-treated hair safe?

Yes — it’s formulated to be color-safe, so it cleanses away chlorine and styling buildup without stripping salon color. The gentle cleansing system plus conditioning botanicals helps preserve vibrancy between color services.

• Color-safe surfactants protect dye molecules from aggressive stripping.
• Moisture-supporting oils reduce fading from dryness-related dulling.
• Recommended as part of a sun-care routine that includes UV protection.

What hydrating ingredients help restore hair and skin after sun exposure?

To counteract drying effects, the blend includes tamanu oil, organic coconut, green tea, sunflower oil, and vitamin E to support moisture balance and soft feel. These plant-derived oils and antioxidants condition both hair and skin while helping to smooth and detangle strands.

• Tamanu and organic coconut oil help nourish and reduce dryness.
• Green tea and vitamin E offer antioxidant support and soothing properties.
• Sunflower oil contributes lightweight conditioning without heaviness.

How do I use this cleanser in my post-swim routine?

Use it as a shower cleanser for hair and body immediately after swimming or beach time. Lather onto wet hair and skin, rinse thoroughly, and follow with conditioner or leave-in treatments as desired to lock in moisture.

• Apply to wet hair and body, massage to lather, then rinse.
• Pair with Aveda Sun Care Protective Hair Veil or Daily Light Guard for added UV defense.
• Safe for daily use after exposure to chlorine or salt water.
