Magic Powders

October 18th, 2010

Revive and refresh your hair—no water required! These dry shampoos, conditioners and styling helpers absorb oil and give your look a boost.

They also save time because you lather up less often. We’ll help you choose the right ones to solve your style problems!

1. PROBLEM

I need great style in zero time. Help!

SOLUTION

Regis DESIGNLINE Powder Boost Volumizer

BENEFITS

Superfine powder instantly absorbs oil at the roots and adds long-lasting body and lift. To use, gently tap the shaker near your scalp and massage in the powder with your fingertips.

EDITOR’S NOTES

“This formula dissolves right into the hair, leaving no residue. It’s matte, too, so you won’t get greasy-looking roots.”

2. PROBLEM

My hair goes flat and limp by midday.

SOLUTION

Regis DESIGNLINE Reactivate Style Refresher

BENEFITS

Moringa seed extract and wheat protein work together to recharge the hair products you already use. Scrunch into curls or spritz onto straight hair and then fl ip your hair upside down and tousle with your fingers.

EDITOR’S NOTES

“This is a great product to keep at work when you need to refresh your style or take your look from day to night.”

3. PROBLEM

My hair is dry and needs conditioning between shampoos.

SOLUTION

TIGI Rockaholic Dirty Secret Dry Conditioner

BENEFITS

Try a dry conditioner! Lightweight moisturizers, like hydrolyzed silk and chamomile flower extract, help soften strands and prevent static.

EDITOR’S NOTES

“Spray on this powder from mid-strand down. Concentrate on the ends to help prevent splitting!”

4. PROBLEM

My mature hair looks dull and unhealthy.

SOLUTION

Alterna CAVIAR Anti-Aging Dry Shampoo

BENEFITS

Alterna’s caviar-infused formula adds a healthy gleam to mature hair, leaving it more youthful looking.

EDITOR’S NOTES

“Your hair will look healthier if you use this to stretch the time between shampoos (and heat styling).”

5. PROBLEM

Dry shampoo makes my dark hair look white

SOLUTION

Kenra Platinum Dry Shampoo

BENEFITS

Many powder shampoos are made with talc, which can leave locks dusty-looking. This one, with translucent rice starch, is less apt to leave a residue.

EDITOR’S NOTES

“A plus: This has a refreshing melon fragrance that gets rid of odors in hair.”

6. PROBLEM

I want to protect my hair from the sun.

SOLUTION

Sexy Hair Concepts Big Volumizing Dry Shampoo

BENEFITS

This product doesn’t just fluff up your style between showers. Its micro-fine UV protectants also shield your hair and scalp from sun damage.

EDITOR’S NOTES

“Celebrity stylists use this on their clients for outdoor photo shoots and events.”
