The Balm En Root Dry Shampoo

Picture Taken from The Balm 
Are you in a hurry? Are you tired of washing your hair everyday? Are you looking for an alternative to hair wash and would want to protect your hair? 

Then DRY SHAMPOO is the perfect product for you!!! 

DRY SHAMPOO is not a popular product in the Philippines. It is quite limited but I happened to stumble upon one when I visited Beauty Bar Trinoma. 

Here are my thoughts. :) 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: 
"Revive your hair between washes with this Paraben and Sulfate-free Dry Shampoo for girls on the go! It's the ideal time-saving alternative to a hair wash and blow dry (Source: The Balm)."

PACKAGING: 
Like most The Balm products, it has a catchy and girly girl packaging. It has a tall, slim can which is easy to hold. 

However, the spritz nozzle is faulty. On my first use, it worked well but on the second, nothing came out. When I asked the store to replace it, they asked me to try it out in the store and it was great. I checked the product after 2 hours and saw it leaked. I noticed that there was air coming out of the nozzle!!! I had to re-adjust it as to prevent the product from leaking. :(

Store the product in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat for it has a tendency to evaporate. Prevent from shaking it or putting it inside your bag. 

SCENT: 
It has a mild floral scent. When applied on the hair, it is not overwhelming. 
APPEARANCE: 

When sprayed on the hair, it comes out white. 

CONSISTENCY: 
The spritz nozzle sprays a good amount of product. Not too little, not too much. 
PRICE: 
P745 available at Beauty Bar Trinoma
HOW TO USE: 
"Spray onto dry hair, holding bottle at least 6 inches from your scalp. Concentrate on roots and move through your hair to get a fresh, clean look before styling (Source: The Balm)." 

MY THOUGHTS:
On my first use, it felt great. It doesn't leave a white or gray cast onto the hair. It absorbs oil fairly well and doesn't leave an overwhelming scent. Application of product varies depending on your hair condition and hair type. :)

My problem with this product is the SPRITZ NOZZLE. :( Like I mentioned above, it is faulty!! :( I have to be extra careful when I use it as not to waste the product. I sent my feedback to the staff of Beauty Bar Trinoma and even sent a review over TheBalm.com. I even heard from the staff that they have received a memo regarding The Balm hair products (my interaction with the staff is a different story). This means, complaints are pouring!! 

Final thoughts? I won't buy it again. 


I want to hear from you. Leave a comment below. :)
