I had all but given up on anything that could bring volume and life to my flat straight hair until I picked this up on a whim in Boots a couple of weeks ago.
I have seen rave reviews on this but it ever appealed to me. The Bumble and Bumble Pret-a-Powder is, as you guessed it, a powder and I found the idea of pouring powder in my hair kind of gross and unappealing.
I can't stand super powdery dry shampoos so I thought this would be somewhat similar to them if not worse, but my curiosity got the better of me so I picked up the mini bottle.
This is the best volumising product I have ever tried.
My hair is straight and quite fine but I have a hell of a lot of it, and its long as well so whenever I have used products like this in the past- whether it be a spray or a mousse, it will look great for about ten minutes and then literally my hair falls leaving it more limp than before as it is weighed down by extra product.
I had pretty much sworn off these kind of products as they just made my hair feel dirty and I can't be doing with that, especially as washing my hair is really not my favorite pass time.
This little guy has been used almost daily and I am addicted, when it runs out a full size purchase is happening.
My hair is at its flattest after it was been washed as it's just so silky.
What I do is, wait for my hair to fully dry (I never even use a hair dryer...I think I use it once a year, I just can't be bothered) then I section my hair on both sides of my parting and put a little bit of powder on both sides and also I part under my hair at the back and then I rub my hands quite vigorously through it for a couple of seconds.
I honestly thought I would be left with white powder all over my dark brown hair, but no! It totally disappears! It does have dry shampooing qualities so I can use it on third day hair, but my favorite way is after I have just washed my hair so it has some movement and body to it.
It also smells lovely. Kinda like honeysuckle.
It doesn't weigh my hair down, make my hair look crispy or make me look like I have dandruff.
I have made the mistake of over using it and then things can get a bit heavy, but just a couple of taps into the roots and I am the owner of hair that looks much thicker and bouncier.
Thank you B and B for restoring my faith in volumsing products.
