Review: Psssssst Instant Spray Dry Shampoo

Written review:

Claims:

- Easy Flow Spray

- Refreshing

- Unscented

- For normal to oily hair

Directions:

1. Shake well

2. Hold can 6" to 8" from hair. Lift sections and lightly spray scalp and roots of each section. Wait a few minutes, then brush hair well. Style hair as desired.

Pros:

- Refreshing on scalp

- Scalp feels less greasy after product sets in

- Adds volume b/c oils no longer weigh it down

- Aerosol can sprays fine mist

Cons:

- Clumps up if sprayed too much

- Somewhat expensive, but most dry shampoos are pretty small

Verdict:

4 out of 5
For the price, I suggest buying this if it's on sale or you can get a rebate (like me). Or, if you really need something after gym or you don't like washing your hair everyday b/c it dries your hair out, there are other options by Salon Grafix and/or Tresemme.

This is an aerosol can spray that's to be used at the roots where most of the oil is concentrated (if you have oily combination to oily skin, you probably have an oily scalp as well). When I spray this, it feels very cooling and refreshing on the scalp, either b/c of the temperature or the product itself. After a few minutes I brush it through and my hair feels a lot less greasy and because the oils are mostly absorbed, my hair has more volume, which I like. On Makeupalley some people mentioned that this makes their hair gray, and I believe that's because they used excess product. Spraying too much in one spot does not work, since it will clump up, and when you actually try to brush it through, white specks may form b/c it doesn't have enough oil to absorb and run down the rest of your hair.

Scent: It says unscented, but to me it has a musky type of smell, which isn't bad but for those of you allergic to cologne or perhaps heavy perfumes, you may find this somewhat irritating.

Value: $7 for a 4 oz. spray can (prices may vary, I purchased this at Ulta)

Controversial issue: A while back, I heard that aerosol cans were bad for the environment because the gas it releases when spraying slowly destroys the ozone. Although I am not completely sure, I believe they've changed the chemicals so that it's not so harmful, so aerosol cans are not so bad anymore.

Repurchase?
Maybe, but I want to try the Salon Grafix or Suave one
