Hair Building Fibers (30g) - Instantly Fill in Fine and Thinning Hair to Create a Thicker, Fuller Look - 14 Different Shades for Men & Women - Dark Brown

I read a lot of the reviews before buying this product as it had the least amount of "this looks like crap in my hair" comments. Not having it look natural would be my biggest concern - especially since my hair is more auburn and was even unsure if the color of "medium brown" would work. But it worked PERFECTLY for me, however these are the following reasons I think this product worked great for my hair: 1.) I have THINNING hair. The spots I needed to touch up still have hair present for the fibers to attach to, not a lot, but still some. 2.) I have short hair. Although I did see pics of people with longer hair and it looked good, the difference is if you don't have hair there, there seems to be an indentation when seen close up (which is accentuated if you have longer hair in other spots), although from afar it appears you have a full head of hair. 3.) I have course hair. I feel maybe the fibers won't blend in if you have very fine hair but my natural course hair helped the course fibers blend better. The company even emailed me with tips on how to style my hair. As long as your hair is dry, sprinkle it on the spots you need, BUT DON'T FORGET to pat it in to blend it. I feel maybe some people were just sprinkling it on and not blending it in - and that's why they stated it looked like dust on their head. I am able to use this after gelling my hair or using other styling products and it still looks great. Also I could sweat in it. I've been outside in the recent summer heat and even worked out with it in. I had a small fear it would run like mascara if it got wet or sweaty, but it didn't. Only when I ran my head under water in the shower did I notice the color coming out, and it came out very easy with the addition of a little shampoo. As long as you wash it out you have no fear of it getting on your pillow. I heard that it shouldn't get on clothes and I didn't notice it when taking off or putting on my shirt. Lastly, for those that knew me they immediately knew I had done something with my hair but couldn't tell what. They couldn't tell I had a powder in my hair but they gave me ample compliments. It feels great to have the appearance of more hair in such an instant. For as long as I have some hair for this product to grasp on to, I will have this product in my vanity.

I bought this specifically for my mother. She is in her 70's and has thinning hair in the back of her head. She is one of those women that does not do her won hair;has a steady appt at the beauty parlor once a week for a wash and blow dry. When she has come to visit me I have noticed her sprinkling a product similar to this on her hair. I could not believe the coverage and the difference. I sent her this product and she LOVES it. She brought it to the salon; her hairdresser said this was a very good product, initially applying this for her. She loves the coverage; the dark brown blends in with her hair color. She is glad to have one for home and this for travel. She is going to be able to keep this small shaker jar in her purse for touch ups when she needs it. This is an ingenious product for women with thinning hair, or small bald spots. Simply shake this to the bare area; the powder sticks to the scalp and surrounding follicles and creates the illusion of a fuller, thicker head of hair. I was given the opportunity to test and try this product. I was so glad I was able to supply my mother with this. She is 100% satisfied, and I am glad I found a way to provide her with something she needs via mail service. **Update*** 9/16/15 - just purchased two more to send to my mom at FULL PRICE. She loves this product..and she has used many of them "This is the best" she tells me. Highly recommend.

I had been telling my husband about a thinning spot that he never chose to pay attention to it or take me seriously until he saw a picture where he was standing in the background and you could see it. He immediately had to find a mirror so he could try to get a look at it but was unable to so I took a picture for him. Needless to say he went into an immediate funk and I said, "okay now that you've seen it, let's work on it." I wanted to get something that would be a more immediate fix, albeit temporary, for a few events we had coming up and we're working on natural treatments to actually help with regrowth. He was very much against any sort of spray or powder or anything like this product but I had a gift card and saw the reviews so I figured that if I bought it and it was in the house, he would at least let me test it out on him. It came and I told him to prep as specified and the immediate result was amazing. My husband kept making me take pictures from different angles and was kept looking in the mirror in disbelief. You couldn't tell the difference between where it was and wasn't applied at all and the texture of it is almost the exact same as dry shampoo which also helps to add a bit of volume. He pulled a total 180 and agreed that it was a fantastic, temporary solution. He doesn't wear it every day since it's just a thinning spot and he doesn't want people at work to think he got something done, but for special occasions we make sure he's got it packed... at least until we find a more permanent fix.

I've tried all the hair loss concealing powders out there. This one most closely compares to Toppik - it's rather dense, heavily pigmented and coarse and doesn't really blend so much as sits on your scalp. If you try to tousle the heavier spots to make it look more natural, pretty much all of it vanishes and you have to reapply, so it's a little persnickety. Otherwise it works fine. The dark brown is very dark and a little goes a long way. Because it's a coarser, heavier grain it can tumble from hair to forehead or shoulder so check yourself thoroughly before leaving and use a little hair spray to hold in place. I don't have problems with this coming off on sheets but I do find it comes off on my towels when I wash my face at night as there's always a little that's migrated closer to my hairline, but as I have olive skin it's not visible - I imagine someone with whiter skin might have a problem with this. If I don't remember to pre-treat the spots on towels before laundering, they don't come out in the wash, but this is true of most of the hair powders. I should just go with brown towels and be done with it ;) I use this as a last resort - when I run out of the brand I like X Fusion. A little goes a long way so I suspect I'll have this as a back up for years to come!

Product fills hair well. But color is lighter than advertised and does not match hair color. Overall product is good, I would just go one shade darker than you would normal get.

I have a similar product which I like, but decided to try this one for two reason; my friend gets me the one I use and I haven’t seen her to have her get it and two, the price was good for this one. HOWEVER, the sprinkler part of the bottle is way too big and you end up with powder on your face and clothes. This doesn’t cover like the other brand I use, nor does it help with hair volume like the one I use. The scalp is shinny using this one. I will be throwing this away, which is why I gave 3-stars for value, price is good, but won’t be using it.

I used this for the first time today and I LOVE it!! I am a female with thinning hair, esp on the top front, which is very obvious when I wear it in a pony tail. Well, today was the test. I pulled my hair up and sprinkled the product on my scalp. Wow ... it seemed to work. I pressed it down as instructed, then lightly sprayed my hair with hair spray as mentioned in one of the reviews. I then went to an hour long crossfit class and sweat. I was paranoid and kept wiping my head. When I left the class, I checked my car mirror and was not sweating brown, thank goodness. I then went to a trail and walked in the sun for over an hour. When I got home, I checked again and the product was still in place. I brushed my hair and re-did my pony tail. Still, no bald spot and product stayed in place. I will definitely buy this again. I have medium brown hair and bought medium brown and it matches perfectly. I feel like I used a lot, so I'll see how long it lasts. I will definitely purchase again.

Got this on sale for $19 after I noticed it when I was reordering Caboki, so I figured why not give it a try? Have to tell you that this product works every bit as well as Caboki to hide bald spots (and Caboki works wonderfully). I may even like this a bit more than Caboki as Caboki has changed the shape of their container (shaker) to a thinner model and this wider shaker seems to be easier to spread out the fibers. My only issue is that the product is now back up to around $35, which is about the same cost as on the Caboki website. Here on Amazon, someone is selling Caboki for around $10+ but they're charging nearly $17 to deliver. Bottom line, both this is and Caboki are great products which work well, but are very over-priced considering how much they probably cost to manufacture. That said, they are still worth the price to me as nothing quite looks as natural and hides baldness as well.

I bought this to cover up some grey roots in between colour appointments but they seem to get everywhere and are not easy to apply.

I got this for my wife who's got some small patches of thinning going on at the top of her head. We gave this a try and it works like a charm. She was so thrilled that it covered the thinning area and it really didn't take much. It's a very fine fibrous powder and came out without any issues. For such a simple and inexpensive product it really made her feel so much better about her appearance. Good stuff!!

Better than I expected !

Not great, didn't do job as on packaging suggests

Not what I expected
