But I have to admit, I didn't care for this product. Recently, I have used

1. bumble + bumble

2. Pssssst!

3. Algemarin dry shampoo

4. Klorane

Klorane is my least favorite. I don't like the way it makes your hair feel. With Pssssst! and the Algemarin, your hair feels soft and not greasy. This stuff makes it feel kind of dry and stiff and not really clean. Smell is OK. Pick the Algemarin; nice smell. Sadly, Pssssst! no longer has a scent. They decided to release the unscented version,. Algemarin is more like pssssst and doesn't leave a lot of white stuff in your hair. I think the particles on the Klorane are bigger, therefore they not only show more, but don't really do the job as well as they could.

P.S. there is a technique to using dry shampoo and if you are anything but grey haired or blonde, you need to follow the "rules." First, never spray it on hair that will be the outer hairs of your "do" meaning don't spray it where you plan to part your hair. Spray it just underneath it. Second after spraying, take a towel and towel rub it through your hair. Then take a soft BRISTLE brush and brush your hair till all the white is gone and it looks more normal. Wipe off any remaining "white" residue with a damp washcloth. Style as usual!

I've used this product twice and liked it both times. The scent is much nicer than the other dry shampoos on the market, and I found that it cleaned better than Pssssst or Algemarin. The down side to this product is its cost--pricier than the other shampoos and the can is rather small. If you have long hair, you'll probably be able to get only 3-4 uses before the can empties out. I'm only giving it 4 stars because of the cost and size. I'd rate it 5 stars, however, for performance and quality.

dry shampoo EVER! And I've tried them all! Perfectly fine spray seems to disappear. After brushing, there is NO residue. This dry shampoo easily gets hair looking good through another day or two! WONDERFUL--well worth the price!

I've tried all the products on this site at one time or another. Most have a really strong smell or leave a weird residue (B&B is really waxy and leaves a dark residue in my hair that is visible when I wash it out).

Klorane Dry Oat Shampoo is the best of the bunch. It's true, you only get a few uses out of each bottle. However, the time saved is invaluable. I straigten my hair and cannot wash it every day or I will dry it out too much.

A few tips that may help:
1. Only spray at the top of your head sparingly. (You probably don't need it underneath)
2. Only spray at the roots
3. Once sprayed at the roots, massage it in like you are washing your hair to spread it out, like shampooing
4. Let it sit for 2 minutes while putting on makeup
5. Use a paddle brush to brush out the excess
6. After brushing through thoroughly, you may have some residue. I have found that spraying my paddle brush with a bit of aersol hairspray and brushing through seems to help remove the residue.

Hope this helps!

I'm quite pleased with this product. I've always just used corn-starch based baby powder on the mornings when I don't have time to shower and the hair looks a little greasy, but that's a huge mess and leaves my hair smelling like a baby's bottom! I read reviews for a bunch of different "dry" shampoos and decided to go with this mid-priced one.

The scent is inoffensive and the spray can is easy to use. I'm not sure if it actually soaks up any oil (my hair still feels dirty when I touch it) or just dulls the shine, but it makes my hair look clean enough that I am comfortable going to my formal (business-attire required) office. On the down side, along with taking out the shine from the oil, it takes out natural shine, too.

I've used this can approximately 10 times and it still feels like there is plenty left. I spray fairly conservatively, holding the can about two inches from my scalp and aiming directly at areas that need shine-reduction. I imagine that covering every inch of your hair in the powder would drain the can pretty quickly, but I don't think it's necessary to use that much. Just spray the roots and brush it out.

I will buy this product again when my can runs out. It's no substitute for washing your hair, but is very serviceable in a pinch.

I've used a couple of products similar to the other reviewers. Klorane, plainly and simply, dries out my hair & I've got some thick strands going on.

If you're looking for a good product, I would have to say either Bumble & Bumble (but they've discontinued their dry shampoo from what I understand) or Algemarin. Hands down.

The only other reason to buy this product (if you're new to dry shampoo) is to test it and see the effect it has on your hair....otherwise, I'd try something else.

There are mornings that I just can't face, or don't have time to, wash and style my hair all over again so I really enjoy this product. It really makes your hair look clean and full of volume. The only caveat is that if you use too much it can make your hair look a little white - that is not too much of a problem for me since I have blond hair but I wonder how it would be in dark hair.

Not washing my hair as often has made it healthier and I have been able to grow it longer which is really nice.

Every since I was a kid, my hair looks greasy when I get out of bed in the morning - for that reason, I rarely skip the shower.

I had read that a lot of people use talcum powder for this purpose - I tried that, and it worked pretty good, but it can get messy.

So I tried this stuff - its great, and you don't smell like a baby.

I don't use it regularly, but its nice to now have the option to just wash my face, brush my teeth, and spray this stuff in my hair and be presentable.

Would be great for camping trips too, or to freshen up after a long flight.

Update: After using this a couple times, I've decided its too heavily scented for a guy. Even girls might not appreciate the strength of the scent.

I used this product after surgery and could not wash/style my hair. It worked better then another product I had used but after only using the product twice it would not spray anymore. The can did not appear to be clogged but it still would not work.

This product's specific formula really absorbs oil on the hair near the scalp -just be careful not to use too much or at your part you'll look like you have gray hair! Brush through really well - it also provides amazing volume at the roots. It helps me take better care of my colored/processed hair by allowing an extra day without washing and blow drying.
