amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo - 1 oz. Customer Reviews

Dry shampoo that works great, doesn't weigh me down.

Dear Birchbox,
Please stop trying to make amika "Perk Up Dry Shampoo" happen- it's never going to happen. I don't understand how this is your "highest rated dry shampoo". What the actual....? It smells terrible, and doesn't perform well enough to compensate for the odor. Honestly, even Batiste is better.

If anyone is looking for a good dry shampoo, try the Klorane product in either scent (although I prefer nettle). It is the best one I've tried. You get what you pay for and it lasts a while.

Compared to other brands of Dry Shampoo - This is the winner. Keeps hair fluffy and fresh, and smells delicious.

I would give this five stars if it weren't that I sometimes use Oribe texturizing spray as a (maybe better) alternative to dry shampoo, but I truth amika's dry shampoo is absolutely fabulous for days when you wake up too late to shower before running out for a bit, or when you need to bounce your flat hair back up during humid days. I use it after showering and before blow-drying to keep my hair from looking limp two hours after the shower in summer, and I ALWAYS spray a bit when I'm styling my hair in a top knot or bun.

no problems with this dry shampoo it seemed light and useful. I didn't get the white spray like from other dry shampoo

I haven't had much luck with dry shampoo. They all seem to leave my hair heavy. However, I really liked this one- it smells great and really left my hair with a clean look. The only thing is, like with most dry shampoos, if you forgot to "work it into" your hair (I just rustled it a bit with my hand) you will be left with some leftover and probably unwanted color. That said it was easy to work in and DID NOT weigh my hair down like others.

I never tried dry shampoo before this. I was surprised at how well it worked, the way it left my hair (silver) shining with no visible residue. Definitely good for quick touch up if no time to shower and wash hair.

I have tried a lot of different brands of dry shampoo and this is by far my favorite. No white cast and a little bit does the job. It also smells amazing too which is a plus!

Would recommend, works better than a lot of other dry shampoos and smells good to.

i have had this sample for a while, having received it in one of my earlier birchbox shipments. usually washing my hair every day thanks to miami temps and wavy hair, i opted to skip a day (or 2) after going thru the trouble of blowing it out and straightening it... i dug up my little dry shampoo and was SO PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! my hair is very dark brown, so i was nervous -- but i held it about 8" away from the roots and then just ran my fingers thru the roots until any of the minimal residue had been absorbed. i don't mind the smell at all, but recognize it's definitely fruity. am ordering the small one for travel and larger one for home!
