There are plenty of dry shampoos out there that work pretty well. This is not one of them. I got the travel size in a goodie bag at an event and I was super excited because it is small and not in an aerosol can so I can take it on the plane. Well, the excited died down quickly after I sprinkled it on my hair only to look like Pig Pen with a cloud of white dust around my head. It is white powder that you squeeze out of the bottle directly onto the hair so it stays white and powdery. I have black hair so I put tested it on my new blond intern. She hates me now, her exact words, “I feel like an old lady who just came out of the salon”. It left her hair looking gray!! Well, just the roots, which is kinda worse. It also makes a huge mess during the application. I think dirty hair is a much better choice. That’s what ponytail days are for. At Sephora
