Awesome for BLACK hair!
This is my hair on day 5 of not washing! I have excema so I don’t take long showers as they irritate my skin. I only do a long shower one a week to wash my hair. I dye my hair a blue black and this powder is the only one I’ve tried that doesn’t look brown or gray!!! I love the brush application to get down and in between hair, close to the scalp. There is some mess with this product, but as long as you’re careful it’s not bad. If you haven’t used colored powders before they will transfer on clothes or your hands, so be mindful not to rub through your hair alot after applying. 100% will be repurchased!

WORKS FOR ME *COMBINED* WITH SPRAY DRY SHAMPOO
I bagged this a couple years ago because it left a mark of brown on my pillows, and under fingernails if I scratched my head.But — combined with my favorite dry shampoo sprays (mine is BATISTE “bare” and “shine”) it’s FANTASTIC !!!I was desperate as the dry shampoos left my hair with white strips, and I was going through bottles.SO – I combined ..It’s 100 degree+ weather over here, a dry heat, no air conditioning, and my usually oily hair – is dry on the 3rd day.APPLY OVER SINK / AND ON A BROWN TOWEL if possible. If you don’t have problems – then disregard!! I found the little dots of colored dry shampoo marked where-ever they fell. They are washable, but it’s a pain to then get the spot remover for your floor / carpet / … So I stand on a brown towel and apply with my head over the sink UNDER the outer layers of hair. Then I fold the towel up — because the powder dots will fly off the towel if you just lift.. and get all over the floor!!..THE LONG VERSION FOR ANYONE WHO’S WONDERING HOW TO USEFor uber oily, long hair (mine gets oily within a day — lots and lots of fine hair) : 1. Use AMBIANCE DRY SHAMPOO * UNDER * layers of hair in the oiliest spots. I lift up the top layers of hair and brush it underneath. After each brush I rub it in. By the third day I will brush a little over the top center, for my oily hair. 2. RUB THAT IN !! As noted after each application I take a good scrubbing with the pads on my fingertips where applied. 3. Then sprits just a few short sprits from your favorite SPRAY Dry Shampoo, against scalp in temple areas / back of head / where-ever you’re really oily — again under the outer layers of hair mostly. I need this final touch because AMBIANCE does not work alone for my oily hair, and the Dry Shampoos I have to use bottles … COMBINED : I can go 3 days in 100+ degree weather with my long, lots of fine, what use to be oily hair. 4. RUB IN spray Dry Shampoo too with pads of fingers. 5. TOP OFF WITH A VERY LIGHT SPRITZ of your favorite strong-hold hair spray if need ( that helps my thin hair keep volume ).A good rub and it seems to join the oils with the products, and your head.SCENT : Ambiance use to have no scent; it now has a faint one which I’m not crazy for — but it disappears after application.STILL SLIGHT MARK ON PILLOWS & UNDER NAILS : washes off. Because I’m combining AMBIANCE with my own SPRAY Dry Shampoos, I’m using a lot less of both — so there’s barely any mess on my nails and pillows (both of which still wash out), and a longer time span in between buying my Spray Dry Shampoos.NO REACTIONS : I have skin allergies to nickle, parabens, latex .. and on from there. This is fine for me, though by the 3rd-4th days my head starts to itch and I need to wash it out !! No flakes / just start again with fresh hair.REASON FOR THIS REVIEW : I have spent years trying to keep my oily hair in check. Now, at 42, I’ve got something that works for me. There are a few winning ways out there against this problem, so you might have to do what I did and combine a couple of the formulas of whatever successful products you read about, for your own success!

BYE OIL!!!!
I’ve had bright teal hair for years now, so that means I try not to wash it too much so that I can prolong the color. I really liked the idea of dry shampoo being applied with a brush. I feel it can get deeper at the root more than my fingers can. I can’t stand oily hair, so I’ve used a ton of different dry shampoo powders and sprays over the years. I’ve even used baby powder. This stuff right here is a miracle in a bottle. It smells AMAZING, reminds me of sweet tarts, and the smell dissipates within 2 minutes once applied. My hair looks like I just washed it, and it fluffs it up a lot too! The only downside to this wonderful product is the actual container it comes in. You’re supposed to be able to slide the plastic rim up so that the brush is protected when you put the lid on top. But it gets jammed and stuck down in the bottle and I’ve struggled to get it out. Ya know, the kind of struggle to where I was pulling on it hard, and when it eventually came up, so did all the powder in my face XDI honestly don’t care that the bottle it comes in sucks. This is an amazing product that I’ve used multiple times between actual water and shampoo. I see why it’s so expensive now. But it lasts a long time. I’m definitely going to be buying this again!

My hair fell out in CHUNKS after using this product!!
I would give it a 0 if i could! At first I loved this product and sometimes used it to get another day between shampoos. My hair has always been extremely healthy but gets slightly oily the next day after shampooing. This product looked great and matched my blonde hair perfectly. I loved it… UNTIL I had my hair re-highlighted and my hair literally fell out in CHUNKS!! Luckily I have really thick hair (or HAD really thick hair before this) so it wasn’t a complete travesty. I didn’t know at that time what was going on though and continued to use this product. The next time I highlighted my hair it once AGAIN came out in chunks! My hairstylist had used a different, and more mild product to highlight my hair that time, but we had the same results. So we were certain it wasn’t from getting my hair highlighted… Besides, as I said my hair has always been healthy and not “fried” as it would be from over-processing. We talked about what I was using in my hair and this Ambiance Dry Shampoo was the ONLY thing that was new to the equation. So I stopped using it and Viola! This time when I got my hair highlighted, NO chunks of hair fell out and it has started to grow back! Plus, we noticed that the ONLY places my hair came out were the top & sides… the ONLY spots were I used the dry shampoo! So, even though I rarely review products, I felt I should warn other people so that maybe it will prevent others from losing their hair too.

It does cover up my roots and gets rid of oil but it also looks a little synthetic. On days that I have bad hair/roots it definitely makes it better. I won’t use it often but it’s good to have for those bad hair days. Also I use my own brush to apply as when I try use the brush supplied too much comes out. Would recommend for ppl like me with roots.

Easy to use thou very pricey

Great dry shampoo that has no nasty additives and adds volume which is good if you have fine hair like myself.
