- Q
Everyone says "It smells great!" but that tells me absolutely nothing about the actual scent. What is it? Gourmand/sweet/powdery/fresh/floral/citrus/etc? (Some of those flavors make me want to vom so I don't want to waste the money on something I'll immediately throw out but this product sounds good enough to try if it's not one of scents I can't tolerate.)

It works! And I'm a brunette!
I can understand why brunettes might not like this product. Yes, it does leave a bit of a white residue. The trick is to use VERY LITTLE at the scalp and use your fingers to vigorously rub it in. I have tried every dry shampoo known to man and this is the only one I like; not only does it give body ...

Perfect Product with one HUGE Exception. Brunettes beware!
I like this powder better than the spray, which I have loved for years. It works better and smells wonderful. I swear by this product and will continue to use it. The fatal flaw is not offering it in dark for dark-haired beauties. I am 52 years old and lucky enough to have nearly zero grey hairs. My...

Makes my hair look less thin
Hair Type Straight Hair
I have white hair. It is thinning on top. I shake this into the top of my hair, rub it around and it whitens my scalp and adds body so my thinning hair is less noticeable. The pink scalp doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.
Best powder dry shampoo/worse container
Pros - Absorbs oil, adds volume and texture! Smell is decent. Add overnight and wake up with matte, voluminous hair. Cons - Container has a terrible product dispenser. My tip for if you have a used up Verb - dry power shampoo (Verb is not that great if you want volume/texture) or a similar bottle. I usually cut open the Bumble & Bumble container and pour the powder into the Verb bottle which opens at the top easily. The puffying of the Verb bottle dispenser makes distributing the powder product better in my hair bc I personally don't like the dry shampoo built up in my roots.
The GOAT of hair powder
I've been using this product for years. It absorbs oil really well and doesn't come in huge aerosol can. I have a fairly oily scalp and thin, fine hair so I use it almost daily in my styling routine. It does have a fairly strong scent, but it smells fresh and clean, IMO. A little goes a long way so it lasts several months, even when used daily.
NO
Dont do it. The worst
I would buy this product again and again
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
I have very fine curly hair, which I flatiron. This product give Mrs fabulous volume exactly where I want it and it lasts! I love that it's not wet and has to dry!
