Wonderful for days between showers
-05.20.13
Quick Take: scented, easy to use, natural looking, oil-absorbing
I absolutely love the Oscar Blandi dry shampoo! I have thinner hair so it tends to get oily faster, and this stuff is a miracle worker! I love it for days between washes, and it smells wonderful!

Use Right, Get Right Results - Best STUFF
-05.14.13
Quick Take: scented, natural looking, easy to use, worth every penny
This stuff is fantastic!! My hair dresser would give me a hard time for washing my hair everyday because it gets oily if I don't. Now that I've used this for a good year or more, I am skipping almost 2-3 days washing my hair because it's healthier and I have this as a back up. For those that complain about a "dandruff" look can find ways around that. Lean your head over the sink or bathtub so you have a surface that you can wash away the excess. This really soaks up oil and gives you a workable texture on your hair. I apply it just to my roots and work into hair with my fingers. Sprays just don't do it for me. They make my hair sticky and I feel like I use it too quickly. With the powder, you get more visual results and the large bottle of this lasts me about 5-6 months. Worth every penny!!!!

It works!
-05.11.13
I used to wash my hair every day because it is oily and this product allows me to go 3 days with out a wash. It's gross to admit it but it really helps when I have to run out the door and get my son to school. It smells like cleaning solution (stong lemon scent) but it goes away.

Dry Shampoo Makes My Life 60% Easier
-05.09.13
Quick Take: scented, natural looking
Let me preface this review by saying that I am biased because I think I would die without dry shampoo. My hair gets oily quite quickly (by the 2nd day it is flat and looks gross) so dry shampoo is a MUST unless I shower every day.
The cons to this dry shampoo are:
-it does leave a slight white residue if you don't massage it in very well (it is sometimes even visible in my blond hair)
-it is less volumizing that other types of dry shampoo I have tried. I used to use a drugstore spray-in dry shampoo that created insane volume but it also left my hair feeling unnatural and sort of crunchy. This powder leaves my hair looking and feeling quite natural while absorbing the oil. It's not as volumizing but it's a good trade off for the natural feeling.
The power isn't as hard to apply as I had expected. It's a little harder to get the back of my head than with the spray but it just takes a bit of practice
On the whole, I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has oily hair or who prefers not to wash their hair on a regular basis.

Quick Take: scented, easy to use, natural looking
This is hands down the BEST dry shampoo!!! The scent is perfect and it does what I want it to do - refresh my hair by soaking up the oils of my second day hair while giving me a fresh lemon scent. Sad that Sephora stopped carrying this.

Great for 2nd day, 3rd day, (even 4th day; ya I have my grungy moments). Adds great texture to freshly washed hair as well. Smells like lemon pie. I have very dark brown hair so it does take some massaging to make sure there is no white residue. But it lasts all day, is natural, no gross texture. Lasts forever

The best dry shampoo - with no scary ingredients!
-04.26.13
Quick Take: scented, natural looking, easy to use
I have used Oscar Blandi's dry shampoo before and loved it. After it ran out, I did a lot of searching for a less-expensive option, but everything I was finding in stores and online contained butane/propane. Who wants a highly-flammable head? So I'm back to my first love. Yes, it's expensive but it does the job so well, smells good and doesn't make me fear open flames.

Quick Take: awesome!
Throw your hair over to apply Pronto to the underside of your hair. It is important to follow this direction. Then distribute as though shampooing your hair with gusto. This completely eliminates 'greasy' hair and gives great manageability. I use this product 2-3 times a week.

At the moment, not worth the money.
-04.19.13
Quick Take: scented, easy to use, effective, leaves residue
If I wasn't on a tight budget, I'd keep this product. However, I am so, this product isn't worth it. I'll be returning it.
The pro: the actual cleaning effect. It's easy to use (just spread some into the roots of your hair. It did quickly and effectively remove oil and left my hair clean and lighter.
The con: it makes it look like I have severe dandruff. I have black hair the powder is clearly visible in my hair, even if I only use a small amount and attempt to brush/blow dry it out. The powder will fade over the course of a few hours, but that still means I'm walking around with "dandruff" in my hair for quite some time.
All-in-all, this dry shampoo is great in a pinch. It's very convenient and fast to use, but it just isn't worth the price-tag for me.

Works but Dont Like Smell
-04.12.13
Quick Take: scented, natural looking, easy to use
I like this stuff, works well on days when I dont have time to shower. I just put a little on my roots and work up and voila, my hair goes from gross to just almost gross (or from almost gross to normal). I have black hair and this does not make my hair look "grey." However, I really don't like the smell. I've had several people ask, "whats that smell" when I've passed by after using this stuff-- It smells like fruit-loops. Maybe thats just the smell after it combines with my hair, but it has a very potent chemically smell to it. Also, it is quite expensive...

Lasts All Day

Quick Take: scented, natural looking
First off, my hair is EXTREMELY oily.I can shower before bed and still wake and need to wash again. This stuff WORKS and is amazing. It's not clumpy, it lasts all day, it doesn't make my hair feel weird or look like I've used a dry shampoo. I suspect this will also work great for after being in the pool this summer, too. I'll let you know!

Best dry shampoo
-04.05.13
I have used dry shampoos for years and this is the best one I've tried so far. I apply it by squeezing some powder into my hand and then rubbing into my hair in sections (not the way the bottle suggests). It absorbs the oil and looks fresh. The best thing is that it does not dry out my hair. The smell is not over powering. Overall it just makes my hair look clean and normal - not like I'm using dry shampoo.

The only dry shampoo I'll use
-04.01.13
Quick Take: scented, easy to use, natural looking, the best
This stuff is the best. I've tried numerous spray dry shampoos and they all weigh my hair down and make it look worse. This dry (powder) shampoo does just what it supposed to do. I apply it to my oily roots and this sucks the oil right up. It also adds body to my hair and has a pleasant but discreet scent. I highly recommend this product.

This is by far the best dry shampoo that I have tried. The nozzle makes it easy to use and more economical to use. The sprays sometimes makes my hair feel weighted down and this does not. Try it your sure to love it!

Not what I thought
-03.30.13
I have previously used spray Dry Shampoos and none of them really do the job they say they will. I thought having the actual powder would be easier to use and get a lot of it in the areas that need it most. It is easy to use but I still don't think this works as well as a spray would. I am still in seek of the perfect dry shampoo. Ahhhhh

Quick Take: scented, natural looking, easy to use
i just got this product yesterday because i wanted to see what all the dry shampoo hype was about. i went down to the store and a lady recommended for me to get the 1 oz one for $11 (inexpensive for salon quality). i tried my friends' drugstore dry shampoos: horrible. this one, though, meets ALL of my wants. i only just started using it, but i'm sure this will last me a long time(: super worth it, thanks sephora!
