Looky here! Another little find in the Hair Powder category. I am on a kick with hair powder these days. I have long been a fan of dirty-looking, textured hair and there seems to be an upswing on the availability of these kinds of matte texturizing/volumizing styling helpers lately.

Now you know you can use baby powder to absorb excess oils and get a funky kind of texture going, but that is really just a quick fix and meant to be used more like a dry shampoo. And translucent powder (loose powder for your face) can be used as well. That works a bit better than baby powder because it it skin-toned and won't leave a dingy grey tone if you over-use it. But we'll discuss those in another post. 

I am only aware of 3 brands of hair powder at the moment: Bumble & Bumble, Big Sexy Hair and now this little brand.  This one is similar to the bumble & bumble brand in that it comes in colors to blend in with your own hair color. I have naturally dark hair and I did not have any problems using the Big Sexy powder; it blends right in as you work it into your roots. So I'm not sure it's even an issue but I'd like to know if it is. I think the b&b is supposed to help conceal regrowth at your part maybe? We'll see if this stuff is strong enough to do that.

See the info on the Big Sexy Hair post here if you aren't sure how these work.
