buyer beware - my new review

Horrible scent. Can't handle it as a migraine or asthma patient.I love their curly line. There products have always been amazing so I didn't hesitate to orderNow I wish I had for this product. Not returnable and the light fresh scent is sooo far from light or fresh.Wish I was able to get my money back. I would generally try another dry shampoo from this line. I still may but I am much more hesitant to try anything I don't know. Even though thats how I come to love their curly hair line

Pros
  • It was ok
Cons
  • Left my hair feeling stiff. Not something I would buy again.

Works and without the white residue!

I don't wash my hair daily because I don't think it's good for your hair but some days when I wake up my hair is pressed down at the back of my head, no matter how many times I brush it out. I didn't like using dry shampoos because of the white residue.Finally someone came out with one that doesn't do that. I turn my head upside down and brush out my hair and then apply to the underside. It lasted all day, which the other ones did not.The scent is stronger than I liked but it dissipates…

Pros
  • Does not weigh hair down
Cons
  • The drying formula can be harsh on already damaged hair

John Frieda Refresh Dry Shampoo

Meh.I have oily, frizzy hair that I have to wash daily. I've tried the no poo method and dozens of other shampoos. I don't want to wash daily so this seemed like a great alternative. I used this for a week. And while it did cut down on the oiliness on the second day, I found I needed a clarifying shampoo to get all the dry shampoo product out. It is a catch-22. Clarifying shampoo strips my hair of color but I need after using this every other day. I'll just stick to my usual daily washing and…

Pros
  • Goes on invisibly for a natural look
Cons
  • The dry shampoo can be difficult to wash out, leaving hair greasy and weighed down

Not sure if it works or it is my technique

I have tried this dry shampoo several times now. I'm not really sure how well it works or if I am using it wrong. I have long hair and trying to use this on sections of the hair it took too much time with my arms up in the air (with my arthritis that is a no-no). I'm glad I got to try this as I had been considering getting some dry shampoo as washing my hair on a routine basis these days is next to impossible. But I don't think the dry shampoo is the route to take as your hair is still dirty…

Pros
  • Nice scent. Seems better than others I've tried.
Cons
  • Lasted for 3 uses and didn’t really help

While I have always loved anything John Frieda

While I have always loved anything John Frieda, this product does not make my list of great dry shampoos. My scalp was really white after use and after working out the powder just became a big white chunk in my hair.

Pros
  • TRANSFORM FINE HAIR FOR TOUCHABLE FULLNESS - Maximize your volume without unwanted oils and give yourself the full, thick hair style you have been searching for
Cons
  • The scent is too strong and overwhelming

this really blasts out

I was surprised at the force with which this product blasts out! It's a pretty big burst and one would do best to hold the can farther away than maybe normal when first using this to make sure you don't overdo it before getting used to it. This product works as it should and I didn't see any visible white spots in my hair, definitely gave my fine hair a big boost of volume for a short time, but I really didn't like how much came out when I applied it as it took a while until it felt like I had…

Pros
  • Beauty & Personal Care
Cons
  • The dry shampoo does not effectively remove oil and grease from hair

It works well in my review

It works, but i don't care for the smell. The good news is the odor doesn't remain and it works really well. it leaves a tiny bit of powder but it is really easy to work in your hair. I kinda can't wait till i'm finished with it.

Pros
  • Love this product!!!
Cons
  • The product worked fine, but smelled so bad that I couldn't use it.

Great for restoring volume!

If you want volume, you’ve got it! Smells great, no visible residue, just the right amount of volume, and portable for touch ups!

Pros
  • Suitable for all hair types, but especially effective for fine hair
Cons
  • The dry shampoo can cause hair to appear dull and lifeless

Worse smell - my new review

This product smells terrible, like rotten eggs. Do not buy. Unfortunately it wasn't eligible for return so I had to keep it. It went to the trash.

Pros
  • Absolutely love it!
Cons
  • Not very good.

Left hair sticky.and worse, with an off-putting smell

I tested this product on a very hot and humid summer day when I could not get to a shower to wash my hair. Instead, following the instructions, after vigorous shaking, holding can at proper distance from hair, sprayed roots.Now, it's possible that the weather may have somehow "affected" the product in use, but this came out and instead of a dry spray, it was sticky and liquid-y. To say that my hair was in worse condition than when I started, is to understate the post-spray condition of my…

Pros
  • I love it.
Cons
  • No cap, dented bottle. I would bet my bottom dollar it's used. Gross.

Lots of residue best in my review

More white residue than most dry shampoos I’ve used- took a lot of brushing to disperse. I would not recommend for individuals with dark hair unless you want badger stripes.

Pros
  • Helps prolong the life of a hairstyle
Cons
  • The product can cause hair to feel dry and brittle

Great dry shampoo: my feedback

I dye my hair and try to go about a week between washes to help the color last. I've been through quite a few brands of dry shampoo and this is by far my favorite. The smell is fine but I wish there were other scents. A little goes a long way with this one! Will definitely buy more!

Pros
  • Hair Care
Cons
  • The product is expensive compared to other dry shampoos

Revainrating 3 out of 5

YES, THERE IS WHITE RESIDUE

The description says no white residue, but this is a typical dry shampoo that goes on white. It takes a significant amount of rubbing and brushing to get it to disappear on my dark hair.It makes my hair look more matte than I'd like .It provides a lot of texture, and the scent is pleasant, not overwhelming. It's ok, but I've had better dry shampoos that cost half as much.

Pros
  • Instantly removes oil and sebum from hair and scalp
Cons
  • The product can leave a powdery residue on clothing and linens

Worst dry shampoo to date!

I generally really like John Frieda products, and the hairspray is my holy grail. I thought this dry shampoo would be equally as good - NO! I used this very sparingly this morning, and it left a huge cloud of powder all over my bathroom, my clothes, and a dense powder throughout my hair. I brushed, and brushed again, thinking I got it all worked through. but NO, all day long, I've had residue on my shirt, my hands - which transferred to my black pants, and my brush. I feel gritty all over and…

Pros
  • Great for volumizing. Best used at night. So handy!
Cons
  • Very very small bottle

Worked for me! in my review

I'm probably not the greatest judge of dry shampoo because I've used, like, two kinds, but I was perfectly happy with this. I like the luxurious volume line, and have also used the mousse and hairspray. No noticeable residue.

Pros
  • Adds texture and body to hair
Cons
  • The can runs out quickly and needs to be repurchased frequently

Revainrating 4 out of 5

pretty good on my review.

The scent is a bit much but most dry shampoos are a bit strong and this is far better than all other brands I've tried. It also works pretty well without making my hair look really dried out.

Pros
  • Residue-free formula does not leave buildup
Cons
  • The spray nozzle can clog easily, making the product difficult to use

Hate the fragrence but I like the results.

Dry shampoo is hit or miss with me. It usually leaves a film on my brush and dulls my hair. Normally it is the fragrance that I like. This product was the opposite. It left my hair shiny. The film on my brush was minimal. There was no residue on my scalp. It made my hair a bit fluffy and even a straightener didn't help much. This I can live with. I hate the fragrance though. I must have been mean-girled by someone who used a product with a similar fragrance because it was an immediate trigger…

Pros
  • Doesn't leave any white or powdery residue
Cons
  • The scent can be too strong and irritating for people with sensitive noses

A brand you can love!

Wow! I have tried many dry shampoo but this is by far my favorite!No residue left behind, great scent, and it makes my hair look amazing and gives it some volume!

Pros
  • So nice to find a favorite on amazywhen I can’t find it in stores.
Cons
  • Just not crazy about this product. No reflection on sender.

Works as well as other brands like Living Proof that I’ve tried. Once it’s in, it does take out the greasiness of unwashed hair and thicken it for styling. Does what it says it will. My issue with all dry shampoos is that you have to really push down on the nozzle hard to get it to spray and then it sends white spray everywhere on your face, over your bathroom. This could be user error, but it’s been my experience with this and other brands. I did have to work harder with this brand to get the…

Pros
  • Provides a lift to flat or lifeless hair
Cons
  • The product can cause hair to become flat and lifeless

Just plain bad on my review.

I've never used it before and I don't think I will ever again. It worked twice and then it just sprayed nasty wet stuff that was hard to get out of my hair.

Pros
  • Love this dry shampoo. It's easy to use and comes out in a nice, even spray.
Cons
  • Does not work whatsoever. It's like spraying hairspray onto your roots. Terrible
