The Best of SEPHORA HOLIDAY SALE: New Finds, Favorites & My Wishlist

"The Perfect Hair Day is a dry shampoo that I use on occasion between washes. I also will use it occasionally right after washing just on the ends to give my hair some soft manageability and body. It cuts the frizz after I shampoo my hair. I've been loving this treatment by Living Proof. It's a triple bond complex, very similar to the K18, but the K18 irritates my scalp and this one does not, so I've been reaching for this about once a week to once every other week just for a little bond repair and smoothing, just to cut down on the frizz."

"So many of them they just are duds. I open it and this happens, and then you try to poke, like 'is there a clog?' but it's like it's never been used before. Try to run it under some warm water, the nozzle nope, nothing worked, nothing at all. This is a full full dry shampoo, can't use it, completely unusable. [...] I switched to another brand because that was just happening way too often and I was over it. [...] A lot of you have been having that same struggle with Living Proof. It's really disappointing. Hopefully it's just a manufacturing error, [...] but until I can be sure that I will not be receiving a dud, I am not buying it anymore."

"My living proof has been getting clogged. This is actually the second time that I've been using the Living Proof dry shampoo and after a few days the nozzle won't go anymore. This is a second bottle where it's been like a full bottle and I've just been like so sucks."

I’m sorry, hot girls wanna talk hygiene??

"I was so anti-dry shampoo for so many years. When I was in high school, middle school, my friends were using dry shampoo and I was like, how are you using that stuff? It never worked, it always left a film on my hair. Living Proof dry shampoo is the best dry shampoo I've ever used ever. It actually makes my hair feel clean. My process is I wash my hair at night, then in the morning I'll mist my hair, blow dry, don't really need any additional product. The next day, same thing, mist my hair, blow dry, dry shampoo. Now I can push that one more day if I need to. When I do that I'll mist my hair with a little bit of water, then mist it with a little bit of leave-in conditioner, blow dry, and then dry shampoo. That makes a really big difference. My hair looks so good with that sequence."

It's a NOPE for me

Everything in my travel bag, minis GALORE

"I have a dry shampoo, Living Proof mini dry shampoo, it's a necessity for me when I'm traveling. I try to only wash my hair every like three days or so, and [...] I usually can get away with using a dry shampoo only once before I have to wash it. [...] Living Proof is the best one, it's the only one that keeps my hair feeling clean, actually cleans hair."

The products I recommend in REAL LIFE

"When the bleach is gone my hair gets [...] greasy and I'm not trying to wash my hair every day because that just kind of exacerbates the problem. The Living Proof dry shampoo is the only one that keeps my hair clean. [...] It's just the best, [...] the only one that I would ever recommend, and this is coming from a girl with very very fine greasy hair."

"The one that I always use is from Living Proof, their Perfect Hair Day PhD dry shampoo. This is just a great refreshing, I really love this scent, makes me feel instantly refreshed when I use it. It helps to absorb any excessive oil, sebum, and odor from your scalp. I spray it the night before before I sleep, so it's best to use it at night before you sleep. It's really easy to use and I love the fact it doesn't leave any visible particles, especially with my darker hair. I feel like sometimes other dry shampoos can leave like this white powder on my scalp and make me look like I have really bad dandruff. This one does not. So it works really well, I love the scent, and it instantly helps to absorb any excessive oil and debris and also kind of gives a temporary volumizing effect. So if you're looking for a dry shampoo, highly recommend trying this one."

"I tried it and it really didn't work better than any other dry shampoo. As a matter of fact, I liked it much less than most other dry shampoos I've tried. This one felt really wet going on, but it's almost like they just went overboard with the masking fragrance. The fragrance was just too much for me. [...] I didn't like how it made my hair look. I didn't like how it made my hair feel. And I really couldn't stand the smell of it. The smell is so strong and it was with me all day long."

"I love the Living Proof Perfect Hair Day PhD Dry Shampoo because it's a really nice balance of absorbing the oil in your hair so it doesn't look greasy, but it also doesn't deposit so much residue that it looks like you have a bunch of crap in your hair. With some dry shampoos, you put them in the morning and your hair looks great, but by midday your hair looks greasy again. That's not the case with this one. If I use it in the morning, I get a whole extra day of longevity out of my hair without it looking greasy or oily or weighed down."
