Product Insights & Style Tips
The Aveda Men Pure-Formance Thickening Paste channels that no-nonsense, gym-to-street energy. A 91 percent naturally derived paste that thickens strands for a strong, defined look powered by botanicals. The scent is Aveda's pure-fume, a bright blend of spearmint, vetiver and lavender with amla helping to thick en each strand from root to tip. It dries to a natural finish with a soft, flexible hold.
Work a small amount between your palms and apply evenly through damp or dry hair. A little goes a long way, and the paste coats each strand with grip without stiffness, letting you shape and re-shape as the day evolves. It boosts root lift, adds texture, and plays nicely under other products or on its own, moving with you from office meetings to after-hours. At 2.5 oz, it travels light enough for gym bags or weekend trips, while the natural finish keeps things effortless and human.
As a brand, Aveda leans into plant powered grooming with a B Corp certification and Nordstrom Responsible Brands alignment, signaling a commitment to social and environmental performance alongside performance. The Pure-Formance Thickening Paste stays true to that ethos: clean ingredients, cruelty-free practices, and a product that looks both polished and lived-in.
