Handmade Heroes Non Aerosol Dry Shampoo Powder - Dark Brunette Hair, 1.8oz | Natural oil absorbing mattifying powder for dark hair, vegan, travel size, benzene free hair care for women

I adore this dry shampoo, i was an avid spray dry shampoo user and i would have to use it every single day that i didn’t wash my hair. It was drying out my scalp BAD and causing breakage. I’ve been using this maybe 4-5 months and my hair is healing (it’s a long journey with the help of other products.) i apply this usually the night of hair wash day before bed. Dry shampoo works best on clean hair. I let it sit in my hair without brushing it overnight or 15 ish minutes. I then brush it out. It leaves a little white cast but it goes away within an hour or so. I wash my hair every 5 days. This picture was a second application on day 3. i probably won’t have to do another. i also notice that my hair doesn’t get to smelling dirty anymore. The one wish i have is that they would do a refill bag. The container is high quality, i even bedazzled it. So i wish instead of paying for packaging each time i could just buy a bag of it. The smell is refreshing as well.

I wish I would have known about this earlier. I used to use a major brand in a can but I hated it. I have textured hair and the other stuff dried it out and made it feel brittle. On top of that, i was using a can a week because I have a ton of waist length hair that is thick as all get out. That's just so much trash in an already, over polluted world. Plus, all the chemicals.... ewwww. I have been waiting to use this stuff till my hair had significant funk to test it out. The reviews were right, start slow. I had spray can mentality and it was heavy at first. I brushed it in and closed the dial a little. I got the formula for medium/dark hard and love it. It doesn't darken my silver hair and I love that but it also doesn't make it look dusty. It just looks fresh and voluminous. It was still shiny too and I NEVER had that with the canned stuff. This is gonna last me so much longer. Remember to get the dust out of your ears before you go out. Caught the dust in my ears and cleaned it up, right in time before I left. 😆 I can not recommend this stuff enough. I do wish they had a eco friendly refill but a can a week, has been deleted from land waste from me because of this amazing company. With my super thick and long wavy/curly hair, this one can should last me a few months. Also, doesn't make my scalp feel all dry and tight and scratchy. Just like a touch thicker than my freshly washed hair and in a really good way. Love. Love. Love.

okay listen, this one feels bougie without actually being bougie-priced. it’s a powder formula instead of an aerosol, which means no choking on a toxic cloud in your bathroom. you sprinkle it in, rub it through, and instantly look less like someone who hasn’t washed their hair in five business days. texture-wise, it’s super fine and soft, so it blends shockingly well. even on darker hair if you massage it in properly. no chalky cast, no clumps, no dandruff-lookalike situation. quality is high too: no weird smells, no scalp irritation, and it feels way lighter than most spray dry shampoos. the size is generous, and value for money is top tier because powders last forever compared to sprays. one bottle will stick around way longer than you expect. durability is also solid. i can go a full day of errands, sweat, and even laying in bed rolling my head into the pillow without my hair flipping back to oil-slick mode. functionality-wise, it’s a lifesaver for lazy days, chronic illness days, or when you just don’t want to deal with shampooing and drying. it makes me look like i actually have my life together when i absolutely do not. now, here’s the tea: it does stain clothing. like, if you’re wearing a cute light-colored top and don’t notice some powder fall, congratulations, you now have mystery gray smudges all over yourself. i learned the hard way and now i either apply it before i get dressed or shake it in the sink. overall, this stuff feels fancy, works great, and saves me from washing my hair every single day. just… maybe don’t wear your favorite pink sweatshirt while applying.

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.

Finally, a dry shampoo that actually works and doesn't make my sensitive scalp itch! I have very sensitive skin and am eczema-prone. I have wasted so much money testing out so many dry shampoos that just don't work. You know the bad ones that you spray on white and makes your scalp itch so bad that you want to rinse your hair out after 10 minutes (which defeats the purpose of a dry shampoo). Well, this dry shampoo isn't one of them! What I love about this dry shampoo is that it's made from natural ingredients that are generally good for your skin instead of synthetic chemicals that irritate. The ingredient mix is rather genius actually - instead of cornstarch, it's got rice powder (good for your skin) and kaolin clay (also good for your skin) that soaks up any oil. It has cocoa powder and bamboo charcoal (also good) for the coloring to blend in with your natural hair color. And a mix of essential oils to create a lovely and subtle scent. My scalp tends to be very oily - if I wash my hair in the morning, by night you can already see grease on my hair. So I'm one of those people who need to wash their hair daily or every other day. But with this dry shampoo, I'm able to stave off washing my hair up to 3-4 days and still look like I have freshly washed hair! BEST WAY TO APPLY DRY SHAMPOO: Do not apply with your hands unless you want to waste your product and create a mess. I found that the best way involves a big makeup brush (I used a cheap kabuki brush meant for applying face powder) and a lid/cover (from an old loose powder container). What I do is sprinkle some dry shampoo on on the cover, and then use the brush to pick it up and apply to my hair. Imagine you're powdering your face with loose powder, except now it's your scalp. You can "tone" it with the brush too so it doesn't appear like white powder on dark hair. I flip sections of my hair around so I can get to different parts of my scalp and ensure that I have enough dry shampoo covering my head evenly. Once I feel I have enough on, I just run my fingers through my hair to smooth out the powder. Then I brush my hair with a comb. And then my hair looks fresh again!

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.

Love this stuff! The only issue is that sometimes it can get on my shirt when I'm applying it, but even if it does, it easily wipes off with no issue. That's probably more user error than anything. So glad I discovered this powder!

Works really well and doesn’t have a horrible fragrance like most dry shampoos. It does leave some white residue in dark hair if you don’t really work it in.

Svolge la sua funzione, pratico da usare il plus rispetto ad altri è che non lascia nessun effetto ‘polveroso’ o alone bianco sui capelli

Si bien es un poco complicado de usar y se acaba cayendo algo de producto durante la aplicación, es un champú seco natural que cumple su función correctamente. Me viene genial para llevarlo en avión porque no va en una botella de gas. Además, al ser un poco oscuro es más sencillo de "difuminar".

I've tried so many different dry shampoos but this is my first non-aerosol dry shampoo. This keeps my hair looking cleaner than anything else I've ever used, and my hair is greasy within hours of washing usually. I apply it on a night and sleep with it in and it rubs in perfectly. I recommend applying it straight to the hair and not the scalp as it can leave your scalp looking black if you don't rub it in fully. Also, the minty scent stays in your hair and keeps it fresh! I just tap a bit onto my hair, and I've been using this for over a month and there's still over 3/4 of the product left!

Easily the best dry shampoo I’ve tried. I think the first bottle I purchased was back in October 2023, and Im only on my second. A little can make a huge difference and I can make my hair last a little longer between washes (it can probably be longer depending on the person) 10/10

Gör sitt jobb! Gillar att det inte är i sprey flaska. Men jag tycker håret känns för strävt (kanske tar för mycket?) kort sagt, den fungerar, men föredrar hellre min vanliga.
