Yarok Feed Your Hold Hairspray

Smells like Lemongrass

I was looking for something that would hold my curls while still being soft to the touch. I usually use a Herbal Essence Hold Me Softly Hair Spray, which I love. It worked like hairspray but didn't feel like it. I wanted to try this product because it uses natural ingredients. It did not hold my curls for the entire work day, my curls were almost straight by the end of the night. It was very sticky as well. Of course I got some on my neck and chin when I sprayed it on. Usually I can just wipe it off with my hands but this product made my skin so sticky and uncomfortable that I had to wash it off with water. I did not care for the scent either. I feel like your hair should always smell nice because it will give off a scent when it sways. This lemongrass scent that I got from the product was too strong to mask with perfume. I recommend using the Herbal Essence product I mentioned earlier if you're looking for a hairspray that won't make your hair hard and crusty.

TIGI Rockaholic Dirty Secret Dry Shampoo

Not Enough Bang for Your Buck

I recently cut my hair from almost-waist-length to just past my shoulder. I used to wash my hair everyday and just started using dry shampoo to train my hair not to be washed that often. I'm currently washing every other day. This is the first dry shampoo that I've used. It smells pretty good so no complaints there. It does leave a white powder behind sometimes, which can be tough to fix. Dry shampoo is supposed to absorb the oils from my scalp, but I find that my hair is oily and clumping by the middle of the second day. This makes me want to wash my hair by the end of that day. The amount that you get isn't worth the price you pay either. I purchased this at a salon because my stylist had recommended this to me. I paid more than $20 for it and it's about to run out, when it's only been about 4-6 weeks. I mean, it's my first time using dry shampoo but I think it's supposed to last longer than that! Going to try the Oscar Blondi Dry Shampoo next after reading some of the reviews below. Will see how that goes!
