“People always ask me, ‘You have so much confidence. Where did that come from?’ It came from me. One day I decided that I was beautiful, and so I carried out my life as if I was a beautiful girl… It doesn’t have anything to do with how the world perceives you. What matters is what you see. Your body is your temple, it’s your home, and you must decorate it.”

Hey beauties!
Today I want to review a product that has been really raved about on Youtube…
Big Sexy Hair’s Volumizing Dry Shampoo
You’ve probably heard about this from a hundred beauty gurus, how much they love it and how great it works.
Well…. I feel the total opposite. I fell into the hype, and let me start by saying that this stuff is NOT cheap! This tiny bottle is 3.4oz and cost me a little over $10!!! Crazy -but – if this were a great product, I wouldn’t care so much about the price. And unfortunately I have a few huge complaints about this product…
First, which may not happen to everyone but it happened to me… After the first use, the spray cap must have broken because the second time I grabbed for this, it did not spray out anymore. It drips a tiny bit of product out and that’s about it.
So whenever I try to use this – I end up squirting a little bit into my palms and then working it into my scalp… Had this product not been so pricey, I would’ve just tossed it!
And for my other complains:
- When it did spray, it was really strong so I’d have to hold it far away just so it didn’t spray a ton of product on one area.
- The smell is really strong and not pleasant, in my opinion… And it’s not one of those scents that lasts for a few minutes and then goes away. I’ll smell this on my hair all day long… If it were a nice smell, I wouldn’t mind but I really don’t enjoy the way this smells at all.
- Lastly, and my biggest complaint – it makes my hair feel SO gross. Really heavy and dirty, and just …. gross…. Absolutely terrible.
Yes, it does volumize but that’s about where the good ends for me. I will never purchase this again. Ever….. I know this is a pretty strongly opinionated post and I mean no offense to anyone who may like this! I wish I liked it; I had heard such great things but this really just did not work for me at all.

Thank you for reading! xoxo
Sorry this product was such a fail! I have curly hair and therefore have no use for dry shampoos (you can’t really comb curly hair when it’s dry, unless you want an Afro…which I do not). Still, good to know I should avoid this. Happy almost birthday! I hope you have a great weekend. 🙂
Lol at “… Which I do not” hahaha.. I wish I didn’t need them, but with the red hair now I definitely need to find one I like to prolong the color.
Thank you so much! Hope you have a great weekend as well ❤️
What I bummer! I guess I’ll stick to my Dove for now…
I haven’t tried the Dove one yet! I fell into the YouTube trap again and grabbed a Batiste spray! I hope I like this one better.
I really want to try Batiste! I’m sure it will work out better. At the very least, it will smell better 🙂
I’m glad I read this post as I’ve been wanting to try this for a while now but I think I’ll just stick with my trust batiste! 🙂 xx
That’s what I just picked up! I hope I like it better than this! 🙂
It’s really good, I like tat it gives your hair texture and volume but I’d hold it at length so you don’t end up with white hair :p xx
