"Another brand that is really good is this one called Living Proof. I got this from Amazon. It's their advanced clean dry shampoo. This is really good. I like the smell, but compared to the hair by anyone, I prefer the fragrance on that one much better. But this is a very good dry shampoo. Is a powerhouse."

"This is the worst dry shampoo I have ever used. It [...] puts this weird heavy film on my hair and it just makes my hair look lifeless. It looks dirtier than what it was prior. I've had this for a long time and I couldn't completely finish it. It just never worked for me. Maybe this would be suited for those that have thicker, coarser hair. I have pretty fine hair and maybe this is just not for my hair type. So, if you're thinking of this, I would say pass."

"One of my favorite dry shampoos, it's by Living Proof, it's their Advanced dry shampoo. Love this. It also gives a little bit of bounce to my hair as well as soaking up some of the oil in between washes. I have travel sizes, I have large sizes, and this has been on repurchase ever since I tried it. I don't really like their original version, but this just works perfect for my really fine hair. It gives it a little bit of body, a little bit of bounce, and just makes it look refreshed."

"I'm going to use the Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Advanced Clean. This stuff's great. My hair is [...] only 2 days old but it's a bit greasy because I went for a facial and I got oil in it. This dry shampoo really is the best. I like the other one as well that they do but that Advanced Clean, it's like more powerful."

"It's the first time I've ever used a dry shampoo that actually felt like it was doing something. It actually makes my hair feel clean, it doesn't leave a residue, it feels nice and lightweight, it adds a little bit of body to my hair without making it look crazy. I know that this one sprays white so if you have darker hair I don't know what the review would be. I don't know if they have tinted ones."

"This is the only dry shampoo that I like that doesn't get all gunky and crusty up in my scalp. [...] It is living proof of a perfect hair day. It doesn't make my hair nasty, helps it stay oil-free, helps give it volume and it makes me look and feel my best. I am a super oily scalp lady but my hair being dark, it like shows up if there's any white powdery crusty stuff. No white powdery crusties."

"This is definitely my favorite out of the two dry shampoos that Living Proof has. The other is just so intensely fragrant that I cannot deal with it, and it definitely has a bit more of a residue. Whereas this one, for me, is essentially residue free, and last"

What's Really Worth Buying During Amazon Prime Big Deal Days?

"This used to be my all-time favorite dry shampoo, but the Amika Perk Up Plus has now officially replaced it. I [...] don't love the smell of this dry shampoo, [...] it's just not great if I'm being honest, I think it's supposed to have a citrus smell and it kind of does but it's just not great. [...] While this is still great, I think the Amika one is even greater if you're looking for a product that not only adds volume but helps absorb oil."

"Those two were top tier for me when it comes to leaving as little residue as possible in the hair. This one definitely has a little bit more residue. It's a bit more powdery, but it's definitely not to the point of feeling gritty or dirty, so it's something I still enjoy using, because like I said, it smells freaking good."

"The Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Advanced Clean Dry Shampoo is still my all-time favorite. The only thing I wish they would change about this is the smell. It's definitely not bad, it just kind of smells almost like a little lemony, is that even the right word? I don't know, maybe a little citrusy. And unlike their original dry shampoo, it's not something that lingers. That original, oh my God, you'll be smelling that all day long."

"I have the Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Advanced Clean Dry Shampoo. I even use this on clean hair at the root to give me a little more volume, especially if I'm in a climate where my hair is just looking a little bit flat or maybe I get to the hotel and because of the hard water or something my hair feels very weighed down and just doesn't have the fluff that I want. This is really nice to have."
