Reviews

It helps with oil!

"I wish I could give this 5 stars, but I feel like the pump doesn’t always give you enough product, so you end up pumping over and over again to get sufficient coverage. Once you have enough, it definitely does help with oil. I think it’s a great texturizer and definitely helpful with volume!"

Paige D. (4/5)

Clean ingredients, I think it works?

"Love the ingredients, the natural scent, and the fact that it blends into dark hair. Just not sure how much of a difference I notice with removing oil from my roots."

Grace A. (4/5)

Great option for dry shampoo

"I love how light this dry shampoo is, a great non toxic swap. When I touch my hair after I use this, it feels cleaned and not like it’s got a thick amount of product in it like I’ve notice with other dry shampoos. Really no downside to this product."

Gabby C. (5/5)

Best Dry Shampoo EVER

"I was skeptical as I have never had good luck finding a DS that I love and actually works. I absoltelylove the one from Primally pure. The nozzle gets clogged so I have to take the lid off which is a pain BUT the product itself works so good. Highly recommend."

Monique B. (5/5)

I wish I loved it

"I wish I could say I love this product. The pump design doesn’t work well it’s hard to get enough product out and when you do it does “spray” it well. It also takes a lot of product to absorb grease and get hair looking clean- doesn’t help with volume either. I love primally pure but this product wasn’t it for me:/"

Maryanna (2/5)

Sprayer is horrible. Product is great!

"I really like the product itself. But the spray bottle is so bad. Barely any product comes out. I have to open the top and dump it out to use. That is why 2 stars knocked off."

Ashley J. (3/5)

The BEST dry shampoo

"The only dry shampoo I will use. It is the perfect consistency and gives the best coverage. I was thinking I would not like it being it is a powder but I LOVE and recommend it to everyone I know!"

Taylor O. (5/5)

Works well

"The applicator of the bottle works great to puff out tiny amounts of powder into the areas you want it so you don’t get a powdery overload of dry shampoo all over the place. It doesn’t feel as chalky once it is in as other dry shampoo I’ve tried before and does the trick between washes."

Rachel S. (5/5)

Works great! Still too light for very dark hair

"I love using this underneath my bangs day to day to help reduce the oiliness that accumulates across the day, especially in summer when I get sweaty. But I still have to put it under my bangs and hide the color because even though it’s listed for “dark hair” it still sits very light against my deep brown-black Asian hair. Better than bright white though. I do like the pump spray as it makes application very precise (I used another brand where you dumped it in your hand and that did not work as well)."

Snow C. (5/5)

Great so far

"Like this product. I would buy it again. I’m always trying different clean, non pore clogging dry shampoos to find which one I like the best for my hair."

Q&A

Is it possible that you will get a dry schampoo without grapefruit (allergic) ?
Oh no! We are sorry to hear about your allergy. At this time we do not have an alternative.
Hello, I’m really interested in purchasing primally pure dry shampoo. I have bright red/almost orange hair so I was wondering if I could use these products with my color hair. If so can you recommend if the dark or light dry shampoo would be better. Thank you
Hi there! For your hair we would recommend our Light Locks. :) Please let us know if we can help with anything else! XO, Pure Team
I have light/medium brown hair with blonde highlights. Which color of dry shampoo would you recommend for me?
HI Melanie, For the hair color that you described, we'd suggest using the Light Locks formula. :) xx, The Pure Team
I'm not sure what color of the dry shampoo to get. My hair is not brunette. But it is not light blond either. It is a mousy/dirty blond. Can you help with this?
We would recommend the Light Locks if you have lighter brown hair, for black hair we would recommend Dark Locks. Please reach out to hello@primallypure.com if you need further assistance. :) XO, Pure Team
Does it fall onto light color clothes and stain anything? Will I see it on my pillow case or my white shirt?
Thanks so much for reaching out! If you are seeing any Dry Shampoo powder residue it would be because you are applying too liberally. Please feel free to reach out to hello@primallypure.com for further assistance. :) XO, Pure Team
