Tresemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo
OVERALL RATING: 2/5
WHERE TO BUY: Most drugstores (Walmart, CVS, etc)
WOULD I REPURCHASE?: No
MY THOUGHTS: I had really high hopes for this product. I thought finally, a dry shampoo from a drugstore brand that's cheap and easy to find! I'm usually a big fan of tresemme; I really like their shampoos and styling products. However, I was really disappointed with this one.
I ran out of my Batiste dry shampoo (click here for that review) and needed a quick fix for my oily bangs. Saw this at Walmart, bought it, and used it right before going out to dinner. I applied this to my hair, following the instructions on the back of the can. First off, the application is kind of messy. I thought it was safe to apply this in the bathroom with my boyfriend and his little sister present. The spray filled up the room as I applied it to my hair and they were coughing while fanning the air. Kind of like those messy aerosol hairspray cans. The smell wasn't too bad though. After all was said and done, I examined the finished product. My bangs were slightly less shiny, but felt flat, oily, and sticky. There was absolutely no volume or movement to my hair. It almost felt like I had just applied hairspray to them. Had to go to dinner with stiff greasy bangs :(
POSITIVES:
- Affordable
- Easy to find
- Doesn't smell too strong
- Took away some shine
NEGATIVES:
- Hair still feels oily
- Gave no volume; left my hair feeling flat.
- Sticky
- Messy spray

I'm disappointed by this dry shampoo, too. What is strange is the first few times I used it, it was amazing, so I did a positive review, but now it seems to be less effective... -_-
ReplyDeleteGaby: ohh that's weird! mine just felt like hairspray from the start. i really wanted to like it though.
ReplyDeleteBatiste will always be numero uno as of right now! To be honest, I don't see much of a difference in your before & after pic. Thanks for your honest review though, I'm gonna have to pass on this.
ReplyDeletetina marie: haha yes, i'm gonna have to stop by sallys and get some more batiste! :)
