Love this stuff. It's brilliant for those mornings when you really just cannot be bothered to wash your hair. I find I have to wash mine every day, so am easing myself out of that routine by using this on the 2nd day. Fabulous.

No white residue, no dustyness, just lovely clean hair. I do find it makes it a bit matte for me, so I do put a spritz of shine spray over the top to bring it back to normal looking hair, but love it.

Okay, so I saw this and thought, well, what have I got to lose? I might as well try it, as sometimes, you know, you're not gonna have time to wash your hair 'cause something pops up, bla bla bla.
So anyway, I LOVE IT. I decided to try it instead of washing my hair, and what you do is just spray it (mostly on the roots) on your hair, and then massage it in, leave it for 30 seconds or so, and then brush it through. Don't let it scare you that it shows up white! I'm a fairly dark brunette and as soon as you've massaged and brushed it, it doesn't show up at all.
Once you've brushed it through, your hair will feel clean, and completely refreshed. I definitely recommend this product wholeheartedly. Oh, another thing: it smells a-MAZ-ing!
GO BUY IT! :D x

I tried this as it was so highly recommended by other users on various sites. I thought I'd use it when I was unable to wash my hair, if I was in a hurry after the gym and couldn't wash my hair or if I wanted a more stand-up-ish hair style.

So, I click and spray, right?

Well, yeah, but make sure no one is within 5 meters of you and make sure you were not planning on looking like going out. This spray is white. VERY white! Maybe this works if you are blonde or grey or want to look gery, but not if you are black or brown or red or anything darker then, er, white!

Added to this the need to even the whiteness out. Whilst this sounds like a good idea - just brush through I hear you say, well, spet for the fact that my hair is nor bone dry, the entire reason I sprayed my hair was because it had a little oily redidue which needed dealing with. So now the talc- sorry, product has stuck to the uneven oily patches, you resemble somewhere between a badger and a snowman and the only way to deal with this is to wash! The one thing I had no time to do! Or you could continue spraying...and becomming more white...and using up more of your time doing so. Its just easier to step into the shower and rush out the door with your hair in a bun.

And then theres the scent- its horrible! Its sort of like cake misture gone horribly wrong. Now some people love the scent (I have yet to meet one but considering the volume of these being sold) the scent will probably not mix with your perfume so beware and test it out first.

So, are there some uses for this product? well, I guess if your hair is mega greasy its better then talc. It is easier to apply then talc but it takes alot of fuss, leaves alot of white poweder on your hair, your clothes, on nearby people when you spray.... so there is alot to improve. I see they now sell a version for brown hair- but what about the rest of us with dark blode/black/red/... hair? Any why does the powder have to smell the way it does?!

Not on my shopping list!

Buy this instead: Bumble and Bumble hair powder, James Brown Dry Shampoo
 

Like nothing else I have tried.

This is fab for occasional use but I wouldnt use this reguarly. You can end up using half a can dry washing your hair.
However, this is fantastic, it makes your scalp feel like youve just washed your hair. I'm not sure how it does it but I'm not complaining!
The white spray can be a bit of a pain in the beehind, especially with dark hair. It can be hard to brush out if you dont rub it in properly, it also can transfer onto your clothes, especially if you are wearing a dark top. It can look like dandruff on your shoulders.
This does have definate cons, it runs out quickly, it can leave white powder in your hair and can look a little like dandruff on your shoulders. If you are short on time and your hair does need a quick refresh I would definatley reccomend this.

this stuff is amazing. my fringe gets really greasy at times but whenever i cannot be bothered to wash it i use this stuff. it freshens my hair up and smells so good. only problem is that because i have dark hair,you can sometimes see the white powder so i have to make sure i rub it in or brush it out, but apart from that its a great product for when you're really lazy or in a rush.
