Review : TRESemmé Freshstart Dry Shampoo



This is definitely a product I regret buying. It's the first dry shampoo I try. I heard a lot of good things about the Batiste dry shampoo and wanted to try it but it's not available where I live. So when I saw this bottle in the drugstore, I was so excited and bought it. BIG mistake !
I wash my hair everyday and I know we should not do that. That's why I wanted to try a dry shampoo, so I can skip a day of washing my hair.

What it claims
"TRESemmé Fresh Start Dry Shampoo is the perfect solution to clean hair without water anytime. The unique formula with Mineral Clay and Citrus, refreshes your hair by removing oil and odour while injecting volume. Just a quick spray transforms lifeless, limp hair into clean, fresh hair full of bouncy body. It also helps to maintain hair colour with less washing."

How I used it (the day after I washed my hair)
I shook the bottle, hold the bottle 15 cm of my head and I sprayed on the roots of my hair. I left it for 1 or 2 minutes as stated on the bottle. Then I brushed out my hair.

Pros
- It smells ok (same smell as the hairspray)
- It didn't leave white residues
- The packaging is good
- Price is ok 6.49$ CAN at Jean Coutu (drugstore)

Cons
- My hair was sooooooo much greasier than before.
- Made my hair looking dull.
- It weighs down my hair as if I put some oil on it. I had to go wash my hair right away, it was so disgusting.
- It didn't give any volume at all and took away the little volume I had before.
- The smell can be overpowering for some people, but it fades away after a few minutes.

Overall I hate this product and regret buying it.
