Handmade Heroes Non Aerosol Dry Shampoo Volume Powder | 1.8oz | 100% Natural & Vegan | For Light Hair & Blonde Hair

Be careful because alot comes out at once but it worked really well. It looks like baby powder but it doesn’t leave residue or any powder. I used my nails to rub it in and then used a comb to make sure I got it off my roots. Nice bottle too and it’ll last a while. Shelf life is short tho. 3months

Thin, stringy hair runs strong in my family: My mother had it, my sister has it, & I have it as well. We also have a history of having oily scalps, and when you combine a head not-so-full of hair & a tendency for an oily scalp, what happens is that you wake up the morning after a shampoo and your hair is greasy, clumped together, and your scalp shows through around the part. You look like a dirty, drowned rat & wonder what happened during the night that made your hair so oily! Doesn't matter if you washed it the previous morning or right before bed, you're going to wake up looking like Tim Robbins after crawling through that pipe in The Shawshank Redemption. There are a few things you can do about it: 1. Wash & style your hair every single day. 2. Get a perm (the chemicals dry out the scalp & adds volume.) 3. If you don't want to wash your hair daily, find a product that keeps your scalp dry. I do not like washing & styling my hair every day (I'd rather sleep another 15 minute) and perms are expensive, so I usually go for option 3. 1. Spray on dry shampoo: it doesn't work with thin hair & oily scalp - it just leaves a thick, greasy residue that adds to the dirty hair. 2. A hat, but I can't wear them at work. 3. Corn starch powder (so long as you're not allergic to corn products) or Baby Powder. These actually do work. I go for the corn starch because it is much, much cheaper & has no fragrance. But, both options are messy - the powder is very light gets all over & you look like Marie Antionette in a powdered wig. I put it on at night before bed, then maybe a little more in the morning as I'm putting on makeup, then towel off my hair. It may look a little dusty, but at least it's dry & adds a bit of volume. So I thought to myself, "Why don't they make a powder with some color to it?" Cuz the white powder, as I said, does leave some residue & you have to really scrub your head with the towel. Even then, I tend to have dry hands & lips & can feel the grit all day. Anyway, I decided to look on Amazon to see if they had anything, and of course, they do! I found quite a few products with colored powder dry shampoos, and read through the reviews. I chose this one. I felt the price was good & so were the reviews. I was not impressed by the small bottle (wish it were bigger), but people said a little goes a long way, so I tried it for the first time last night about a half hour before bedtime. Now, I'm not sure if you're 'supposed' to put it on before bed, but that's what I usually do with the corn starch, so I did. I sprinkled it on the crown of my hair & it looked like greyish purple powder. I went back to watch the end of my tv show, and after 5 minutes, I used my fingers to comb it into my hair like the instructions say to. Upon seeing myself in the bathroom mirror before going to bed, I smirked because it looked just like the corn starch . . . or so I thought. I wake up, and the powder was almost gone from my hair (it did not mess my pillow or get on my pajamas.) My hair looked perfectly dry & normal. The greyish purple had turned brown (on my scalp) and I did not have to use any more & had no dusty residue after I brushed & styled it, no dry lips or hands, no gritty feel whatsoever. I am VERY PLEASED with this product - a little does go a long way! There was a fragrance when I put it on (it was okay), but it was totally gone in the morning. I am so glad I took a chance. I am now a customer for life! Love it!

It works perfectly! It would be nice if it had smaller holes so not so much came out at once. I usually use it before getting dressed or it will be all over my clothes. It does have a very "earthy" smell, not something I love but it fades within 15 minutes or so.

This is better than nothing and extremely affordable. I’m giving it 3 stars because I was a hairstylist for 16 years, so I know what else is out there. But, if I wasn’t in the industry, I’d probably give it 4. The good: 1. Does what it says it will! Absorbs oil. If you’re a greasy girl like me, you’ll take whatever you can get in a pinch. 2. It smells good, but let me be clear when I say “good” is synonymous with “toothpaste”. It smells like toothpaste. Minty? I like it, but once my brain made the connection, it was hard to “unsmell”. 3. Can get it same day shipped, and I’m a sucker for convenience. The bad: 1. The delivery system is terrible, and that’s if you can even muster the strength to pop the top open. It’s basically a child lock, and… I am basically a child. So that’s not helpful. When you try to sprinkle it over your hair, it will fall fast and heavy in whatever spot it’s hovering over. Difficult to get an evenly distributed application. If you buy this, plan to brush the heck out of it to blend it in. I wouldn’t do this after curling your hair, if your curls tend to fall out easily. 2. It has a strong presence in the hair. Gritty/buildup. But that’s almost unavoidable with an “aerosol alternative”. If you want weightless, go aerosol. I usually wash every other day so I don’t really care about this kind of build up, but the once a week girlies will definitely not be a fan of this.

Beautiful scent and easy to apply. Well worth the price and gets the job done quickly on those days you've got no time to wash before you leave the house!

I waited a bit to write a review on this one. I have very fine hair, but a lot of it. Dry shampoos don't work on me. I tried the sprays, the powders, I tried doing that "no shampoo" method for 6 months waiting for my scalp to "rebalance" while looking like a greased weasel, tried all kinds of special shampoos and masks and conditioners, and just gave up and started washing my hair every day with a sulfate free shampoo. That works ok, but I'm getting older, and my hair is more frail. Last year my hair grew a pathetic 4 inches, with regular end trimmings against split ends. I was crushed. So I took a shot at this one - it's not baby powder but coconut. Wee-ow, it's the best. I can go up to 4 days if I don't mind looking a little greasy on that 4th day, but I usually go 3 and then wash. Every single other dry shampoo has my scalp itching after a day. Not this one. Another unexpected result - it gives me VOLUME. Nothing else, not blowing drying, curlers, an entire bottle of hairspray - has ever, ever given my fine limp hair volume. Ever. This stuff smells good, absorbs all the oil in my hair, and my hair has grown a good inch and a half since January. An inch and a half!!! It's outdone my wildest expectations. My hair is so much stronger and I can't believe my hair looks fresh and washed after using this. I love it so much. Please don't ever stop making this!!

So I have always been an everyday hair washer. However, becoming a mom has changed that. All of the sudden I found that I didn’t have time to dry my hair each day so I would wash it and put it up wet in a bun. This was damaging my hair so I decided to try and find a good dry shampoo so I could go one or two days between washes. I did a bunch of research on the best natural dry shampoos. (Aluminum spray on my scalp?? No thank you.) this product was consistently rated top 10 on multiple different sites. For the price point I thought- why not get it a shot. It’s been a few weeks of using it so I can officially say I love it. Such a great product!!! One of ny favorite things about this product is that it removes that gross hair smell you get after a day or two of not washing it. This product simply takes it all away- My hair doesn’t smell like anything- which I love!! (Mostly I hate it when my hairs smells like hair- if you know what I mean). I also notice it didn’t make my scalp itch at all. Another great thing is that it blends in really well (I have dark brown hair). It takes ALLLL the grease away. And I mean all. (I work out every day and sweat in my head- a little blow-dry and a little of this magic and poof! I have amazing volumized clean hair). The other great thing about this product is that it will last for a day or two. I will apply it the day after I shower and day 3 I have no grease either! The ONLY slightly negative thing I will say about this product is that when you do apply it and you do itch your scalp you will sometimes get the grey powder under your nails which makes them look dirty. But seriously that is such a minor thing compared to how great this product is!! Very very happy with my purchase.

This dry shampoo powder does an okay job, but it’s not perfect. I love that it’s natural, vegan, and non-aerosol — that’s a big plus. It gives my hair some nice volume and absorbs oil decently well without leaving a heavy residue. However, the application can be a bit messy and uneven. It’s also tricky to control how much comes out, and it sometimes leaves a slightly powdery look on darker roots if not blended carefully. The scent is light, which I like, but the texture can feel a bit gritty at times. It’s a decent eco-friendly alternative if you’re avoiding aerosols, but for the price, I wish it were easier to use and gave a bit more refresh between washes.
