Review on Rene Furterer NATURIA Dry Shampoo: Oil-Absorbing Clay, Beige Tint & Light Scent by Tom Oberhue

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Does exactly what it claims.

When I have to be at the office early, it isn't practical for me to wash my hair in the morning. It takes way too long for it to dry naturally, and blowing it dry is tedious and damaging for my hair. The problem is, even though I showered and shampooed the night before, my hair is limp and the crown is a little oily-looking in the morning if I don't shampoo again. That coupled with the increasing media coverage of how unhealthy it is for us to wash our hair twice a day, I decided to try these dry shampoos. After reading a lot of reviews, this Rene Furterer Naturia was my first purchase.The Naturia definitely allowed me to get up and shower without shampooing my hair. It was pretty fabulous being able to do 3 or four parts in my crown, spraying each one and then rubbing it in, and then just do a style touch-up and go. I was even able to sleep in an extra 20 minutes (Heaven!). Another bonus was that my hair definitely had more volume in the crown. Always nice. It's too early in my trials to be definitive, but it seems that there are two drawbacks to this purchase: the product didn't last very long (This could be partially due to my lack of expertise in usage!), and I did notice a few times that my crown looked lighter than the rest of my hair, even though I tried to first just brush it as directed, and eventually to rub into my scalp and also brush out. I have almost black hair naturally,and I might've been a tad heavy-handed with it, so take that with a grain of salt. After I've tried out several other brands, I'll purchase this again and reevaluate, to be fair.Bottom line: a little pricey for the amount of uses, but it truly works.

Pros
  • Ideal for busy schedules
Cons
  • May not provide enough volume
