Scalp Revival Charcoal + Biotin Dry Shampoo | Powder for Oily Roots

This is the best dry shampoo I have found. My other fave is Hask Chia seed volumizing dry shampoo, but because that one is a spray it contains butane and alcohol, which can obviously damage hair. This one is a powder, but unlike other powders it doesn’t make too much of a mess when applied. It was a little tricky at first getting used to application (shake the bottle, turn the cap until the opening is visible, then squeeze the bottle). It took a few tries to figure out how hard to squeeze to get the right amount of product. I have fine, thin, oily hair (I need to wash it daily, but I go every other day since my hair is chemically treated) so it is noticeably flat and greasy looking by the 2nd day. But this shampoo absorbs all the excess oil and gives it some body. I have naturally light brown hair and the product doesn’t leave a white color behind (it does remove all shine and makes it matte, but I personally love that). I attached 3 pics in outdoor lighting about an hour after I applied it - you can see there is no white discoloration on my hair. (I highlight my hair but it’s been over 6 mo the so I have massive root grow out). I also love that this doesn’t have any real scent and it contains tea tree oil, a natural astringent, and doesn’t dry out my hair or leave a buildup on my scalp, even though I use it 2-3x/wk. It also provides some great texture which allows me to keep it in a hair clip all day without slippage.

First of all, the scent of this dry shampoo is absolutely incredible. It is not overpowering or obnoxious like every other dry shampoo I have used (and trust me, I have probably tried at least 30 types). The scent is so light and clean and you don't get that dirty hair smell. It also doesn't make my hair stiff and starchy. I have no idea how, but it manages to soak up all of the grease and keep my hair voluminous but still soft. I work out a lot and my hair gets extremely sweaty, but this stuff makes my hair look freshly washed. My only complaints are the price, it is extremely expensive for how small the bottle is, but hopefully it lasts me a while, and, the nozzle. The dispensation of this product is a hot mess and the shampoo gets everywhere. However, it's worth it for the efficacy of the product.

Works great to give hair clean look and body. Appreciate it has no scent, doesn't dry scalp. Application was difficult and uneven until I figured out what worked best for myself.

Works well without leaving hair feel caked and only need to use a little. No powder left, just blend and pat onto hair

I really wanted to love this dry shampoo, especially since I’ve been trying to switch to cleaner, non‑aerosol options, but unfortunately, it just didn’t work for me. I have thick hair that gets oily quickly, so I rely on dry shampoo to help stretch my wash days. While this product does absorb oil immediately after application, the results don’t last at all. I find myself needing to reapply within 2–3 hours just to keep it looking fresh. For a product meant to help manage oily hair, that was really disappointing. The packaging is another big issue. The dispenser design makes it difficult to use. You twist the top open, but instead of pressing a normal spray nozzle, you have to squeeze the entire bottle. The powder tends to puff out in unpredictable bursts and ends up all over my clothes no matter how careful I am. I truly hoped this would become my go‑to clean beauty dry shampoo, but between the frequent reapplication, the high price and the frustrating packaging, it just isn’t the right fit for me.

I love this product as a clean alternative to the pump spray dry shampoos like Batiste and alike, that are all not good for you. Dry shampoo to be free of the toxic stuff needs to come in powder form. And to everyone that writes that this dispenser is hard to handle, here’s how I do it and find it actually super easy: you shake almost before every pump. Voila! A great amount of product comes out and you simply massage it with the fingers into your scalp. A great alternative to products like Act+Acre that are pricier and this one has a soft little scent, which feels nice, and it feels like one bottle lasts forever.

This is the absolute dry shampoo! I have always been a person that has to wash my hair every single day due to the amount of sweat and grease that builds up. Yes, I’ve tried training it - I’ve tried not washing it for a week, I’ve tried every other day, etc, I’ve tried many different dry shampoos. I eventually just accepted that it needs frequent washing. I bought this on a whim and it’s been a game changer! I will use it at night if I showered in the morning and it soaks up the oils overnight and my hair still looks fresh the next morning. I’ve also used it after a sweaty 10 mile run and my hair looks brand new again.

I have bought this dry shampoo about 3-4 times now and keep going back to it for a reason! Let me start by saying I have tried MANY other brands of dry shampoo and this one and Batiste are the only 2 I consistently go back to. It doesn't have a strong smell, blends/brushes into hair nicely, doesn't make my hair tangled or feel stiff, actually gets rid of and CONTROLS oil all day. I find my hair can go 2-3 days when I used to have to wash it every single day. Only complains are the packaging (hard to squeeze into hair) and the fact that it sometimes makes my scalp itchy if I use too much since the powder sits on your scalp but that could be user error. Overall worth the money as it lasts me a really long time where aerosol cans I would have to buy 2 a month this lasts me for about 3-4 months according to my amazon re-purchase history. I wish they had a brown colored one since my hair is dark it can sometimes make it look dull or powdery but I've definitely had worse. Trying out their puff powder next once my new bottle runs out.
