I took a bottle of this on a 17 day trip overseas. I didn’t believe that it was really 20 washes worth of shampoo in the tiny travel size, so I took a bar shampoo as back-up. I washed my hair about 10 times on the trip and the bottle is definitely half full. I never touched the bar. This lathers up quickly and is super easy to use by lathering in your hands or shaking directly onto hair and working it. I will be using it on more trips for sure.
Easy to use, lathers up well, feel clean after use, like the fragrance, good for the environment!
Thanks, Mark! Glad it's easy, lathers well, and leaves you feeling clean — and love that the environmental side matters to you too, that's very much the point of The Energising Body Foam Wash.
I initially bought the shampoo for reasons of ecology (in refillable aluminum cans). Second, I liked what the company said about their products and ingredients. I have aging, thinning hair that is also being affected by medications I take. Further, my scalp has become a ton more sensitive - likely a a result of aging and the medications changing the scalp environment I would guess. So, the shampoos have been a game changer for me. I am not getting the scalp irritation for the most part (decreased by almost 100 percent I would say) AND my hair looks much better in terms of smoothness and fullness. It seems to "hang in" there longer without looking stringy as thin hair can tend to do...I have used the shampoo and conditioner in a yellow can for thinning hair, the one in the green can for irritated scalps and most recently, the moisturizing one in in the lavender can (which has an intoxicating end scent to it) and all work beautifully! My hair is still too thin but the shedding that I expected to occur this time of year especially really has not occurred and my hair looks fuller and shinier. I feel that if things continue on this path, I will not be inclined to use any hair regrowth therapeutics, that I can live with what I've got.
This is such a moving review to read, thank you for taking the time to write it all out. Going from near-constant scalp irritation to almost none, plus fuller, shinier hair that's holding up through a season where you expected shedding — that's exactly the kind of change we hope for, especially for something as personal as hair changes from aging and medication.
It sounds like you've found a great rotation — The Invigorating Shampoo for the thinning, The Exfoliating Shampoo for your sensitive scalp days, and the lavender one when you want that extra moisture and scent. No silicones, sulphates, or harsh chemicals across the board, so it makes sense your scalp is finally getting some peace.
And starting with the aluminum cans for the sustainability angle, then staying for the results — that's the whole thing we're trying to build.
Thank you again, Alison. Wishing you continued good things with your hair.
I have long, thick hair with oily roots and dry ends, but it’s starting to thin a little due to menopause. After chatting with The Powder Shampoo team on their live chat, they recommended trying a small pot of Hydrating Volume Conditioner For Fine, Dry & Thinning Hair Bergamot & Rosemary. However, it didn’t seem to work for my hair so I’ve since changed to Nourishing Repair Conditioner For Thick, Damaged & Frizzy Hair, combined with the Strengthening Shampoo For Normal & Sensitive Scalps Grapefruit & Probiotics - both of which suit my hair much better. Both conditioners I’ve tried can feel a little gritty when applied and it’s tempting to keep adding more. However, I’ve found if I add a few drops of water to the powder and rub it while it’s in my hand, then apply it to my hair, it goes much smoother and further. Because it’s light, it doesn’t weigh my hair down so it’s brought back my natural waves too! I’m allergic to SLS so this has been a game-changer and they were so light to take on holiday!
Hi Maxine,
Thank you for such a thorough one — and so glad the team could point you toward the right combo in the end. The Nourishing Repair Conditioner alongside the Strengthening Shampoo sounds like a much better match for thick, oily-rooted, dry-ended hair, especially through menopause-related thinning.
And you've landed on exactly the right technique, it really does make it smoother and stretch further than applying it dry.
Being SLS-free and this light for travel making a real difference for you, plus getting your natural waves back, is fantastic to hear. Thanks for sticking with us through the trial and error to find your fit, Maxine.
Hydrating Volume Conditioner For Fine, Dry & Thinning Hair Bergamot & Rosemary 50g / 1.76oz
Hi Cecile,Thank you so much for the 5 stars on the Hydrating Volume Conditioner! Really glad it's working well for you.
Would love to hear more if you ever feel like sharing — always nice to know what stood out.
When I found out powdered shampoo even existed I had to try it and def glad that I did...so far it dosent seem to leave my hair quite as soft as if I had used cera ve on its own, but I normally condition afterwards so as long as I am able to do that after wash its great...I hadn't tried a powdered shampoo conditioning product yet tho or body wash but would like to
Hi Ryan,
Ha, love that framing — glad you took the leap and tried it! Makes sense that it feels a touch different from CeraVe on its own since ours skips the silicones that give that instant soft feel, but pairing with a conditioner after is exactly the right move and should get you there.
You should definitely try the conditioner next — the Exfoliating Shampoo does the detox/exfoliating work, and the conditioner is where the softness really comes through. And if travel or a body wash is ever on your radar, we've got you covered there too.
Thanks for giving it a real shot, Ryan.
This is the perfect soap to travel with!!! It foams up nicely and smells great!
Hi Marilyn,
Thank you! So glad the Relaxing Body Foam Wash is earning its spot in your travel bag. Foamy lather and a good scent in something this compact is exactly what we're going for.
This is the only shampoo and conditioner that makes my mature hair shine and look healthy. A little goes a long way. A keeper for me.
Hi Julie,
'A keeper' might be the nicest thing a review can say — thank you! So glad it's giving your hair that shine and healthy look, and that a little goes such a long way.
Thanks for sticking with us, Julie.

Besides being light weight, colored hair friendly, eco friendly, easy to travel and it works for my dry hair, I don’t know what else to say!
Hi Hannah,
That's honestly the best kind of review — when a product just quietly does everything right! Thank you for the kind words on the Hydrating Volume.
Lightweight, colour-safe, and travel-friendly by design — 0% water, 0% plastic, TSA-safe, and free from silicones, sulphates, and harsh chemicals that can strip colour or dry hair further. So glad it's become your go-to for dry hair.
Thank you also for the tree planted on your behalf with this purchase (working toward 1 million by 2030) and for the plastic kept out of landfill.
Love it! Leaves hair and scalp fresh and healthy.
Thank you so much — we love hearing this! Fresh, healthy scalp and hair is exactly what the Purifying Shampoo For Oily Scalp & Limp Hair — Peppermint & Papaya Enzyme 70g / 2.47oz is designed to deliver, so it's wonderful to know it's working so well for you.
Thank you also for the tree we've planted on your behalf with this purchase (working toward 1 million by 2030) and for keeping plastic out of landfill.
I thought I’d give it a try after reading some reviews that claimed their oily hair has improved. It was a bit weird to use a powder shampoo at first but it lathers up really well. I have 2 main problems with my hair - it gets oily very quickly and I have a very sensitive scalp which means I develop psoriasis if using most shampoos. This dry shampoo is proving to be great with both my issues. It is perfectly gentle on my scalp, and it really has improved the oily hair. With other shampoos I see the oil at my roots within 24 hours, and I must wash by 48 hours because my hair starts to look and feel like an oil slick. But with this powder shampoo I don’t see oil at the roots after 24 hours. I can now go 3 days between washes which I have never been able to do before. I have been using it for 3 weeks and I am so happy with it I will definitely buy more. I highly recommend giving it a try.
Love this shampoo and conditioner. It’s the only natural shampoo that actally works on my hair. So nice to find an evo friendly alternative that is so good.
Hi Geraldine,
This means so much to hear — thank you! We know how many 'natural' shampoos and conditioners promise a lot and fall short, so hearing that our Nourishing Repair Conditioner For Thick, Damaged & Frizzy Hair — Geranium & Rosemary 50g / 1.76oz is the one that actually delivers on thick, damaged, frizzy hair is exactly the win we hope for.
And yes — eco-friendly without compromising on results is the whole point. 0% water, 0% plastic, 40+ botanical ingredients, no silicones or sulphates, so you get real repair without the trade-offs of a typical bottle.
Thank you also for the tree we've planted on your behalf (working toward 1 million by 2030) and for keeping plastic out of landfill with every purchase.
So glad you found us!
Purifying Shampoo For Oily Scalp & Limp Hair Peppermint & Papaya Enzyme 70g / 2.47oz
Thank you so much for the 5-star rating on our Purifying Shampoo For Oily Scalp & Limp Hair — Peppermint & Papaya Enzyme 70g / 2.47oz! We're thrilled it's working well for you.
If you have a moment, we'd love to hear more — how your scalp and hair have felt since switching, especially with oil control and lift. It really helps other customers weighing a switch to a solid, plastic-free formula.
I bought the travel size to start because I love anything that means I have to pack fewer liquids. I have fine, thinning hair and on my first wash I love that my hair feels smooth and bouncy and my scalp feels refreshed. I was also so impressed with how easy to use and lather it is! The aroma of this formulation isn't my personal favorite but I like what's in the ingredients for scalp revitalizing, and that's more important to me. I needed a more travel friendly alternative to my previous expensive salon-brand organic herbal 'invigorating' shampoo & conditioner - makes no sense to package in plastic and makes no sense to sell me a formula that's largely water by weight. Trying it convinced me to go all in on a larger supply of the Powder Shampoo & Conditioner. My scalp feels great. 🥰 And with short, fine hair, it will go a long way, so I think stocking up on this is ultimately way more friendly to my wallet than the salon stuff I've been using, and for... dare I say it? Possibly even better results?? Pretty psyched about this find.
Hi Ingrid,
We are so psyched about this find too! Thank you for such a detailed, joy-filled review of the Growth & Volume Duo — On-The-Go, featuring our Invigorating Shampoo and Hydrating Volumising Conditioner — this is exactly the kind of first-wash reaction we hope for, especially for fine, thinning hair that needs volume without weight.
Ours is 0% water, 0% plastic, and TSA-safe by design, so packing fewer liquids isn't a compromise — it's the whole point. And with 40+ botanical ingredients doing the scalp-revitalizing work (no silicones, sulphates, or fillers), a little really does go a long way, so your instinct to size up is a smart one, wallet-wise and results-wise.
Noted on the aroma — we appreciate you being upfront about it, and we're glad the scalp feel and ingredients won you over regardless. We'll pass that feedback along.
Also, thank you for the tree we've now planted on your behalf (working toward 1 million by 2030) and for keeping plastic bottles out of landfill with every refill.
Welcome to the Powder family — so glad you're going all in!
Bought it for my son and no more dandruff after second wash. What a relief we finally found a shampoo that works... after two years of trying many different types.
Hi Azlina,
What a relief indeed — thank you for sharing this! We know how frustrating two years of trial and error must have been, so hearing that your son's scalp cleared up by the second wash genuinely made our day.
Tea tree and salicylic acid do a great job targeting flaking at the source, and since our formula is 0% water, 0% plastic, and free from silicones, sulphates, and harsh chemicals, it's gentle enough to keep using long-term without irritating his scalp further.
Thank you for trusting us with something as personal as your son's care — and for the bottle you bought, we've planted a tree toward our goal of 1 million by 2030, and kept up to 10 plastic bottles out of landfill.
Amazing product! Highly recommend ✅
