GREAT PRODUCT Read more

Love this product. I've used this for years..I'm not balding I'm greying and this covers your scalp beautifully. A little goes a long way. I can go two days before I wash it out, before it becomes itchy... Read more

(This review addresses coloring the scalp to conceal thinning areas ONLY, NOT to covering gray hair. I've never used a fill-in powder to cover gray hair and have no idea how that would work.) This is the only fill-in powder product I've ever used other than a product that comes in a shaker bottle, excellent product but the shaker is not precise enough when using close to the face. I've learned from my experience with that product that these fill-in powders cover best if you choose the shade one step darker than your hair color. My natural hair color is light Ash brown, I use the medium brown in the shaker product, so I bought medium brown in this product. This medium brown is lighter, and true to my experience, not quite dark enough to give good coverage without applying more than should be necessary (which results in rub-off issues). Next time, I'll get the dark brown, and I'm sure that will work as I expect. As I've grown older I've also learned that shampooing every day is a sure-fire path to damaging my very fine hair, so I try to limit it to twice a week, filling in with dry shampoo if necessary. The shaker product I use stays in place from shampoo to shampoo, this one doesn't do quite as well unless I cover it with good jolt of hair spray. Not a real big deal but something I have to remember when applying. I've become annoyed over the inadequate case it's in. After a few uses, loose powder develops on top of the compressed powder, and that makes for a mess in the sink that has to be cleaned every time I use it. I don't want to blow away that loose powder because that's just a waste, I use that loose stuff on top. I ended up putting the whole thing in a small jewelry box to contain the mess, which takes up more room in an already over-full make up drawer, and it's just and annoying hassle that shouldn't be necessary. It needs a deeper case. Finally, the accompanying brush is HOPELESS and has been shedding from the very first use. It'll be bald before the product is gone. If you're going to put out a quality product, don't pair it with a gross brush that sheds all over that product! ICKY! Overall, I'm satisfied with the product (dismissing the error in getting the color right), but I'm docking one star for the fact that it doesn't stay in place quite as well as the shaker product I use, for the case that doesn't contain the loose powder that's inevitable, and for the hopeless brush that I'll replace the first time I'm in a store and it comes to mind.

Love it. So easy to brush on and blend in. My hair is thinning at the top and this blends in so well you can't even tell. My hair looks thicker naturally. Read more

This stuff is awesome. Life says, "here's some thick hair!" then life says: "I giveth and I thinneth yer hair." And that's just life. What what to do? After watching a bunch of Youtube videos, research and all that stuff... I found this... Wonderful stuff. It doesn't transfer unless you scratch your head (in deep thought, that sometimes happens). I workout with this lightly powdered on my pretty little head and it does not run at all. AT ALL. A little goes a long way. Just a dusting and it's like..."what thinning hair? I don't have thinning hair spots." I even got a compliment about how awesome my hair looked. Ha! I just have a little thinning here and there and this is a great "filler" for the little spaces. Recommended? If you have a TON of thinning...this may not work. Ok, it probably won't. If you have a little thinning that you can "hide" with the rest of your hair...this is perfect to make you feel confident that even if the wind blows, your hair will look full, regardless. I love the price and the light feel, easy to apply, don't need a lot. This stuff will last a long time! Read more

I've had a small cowlick on the back of my head that shows a little bit of scalp unless I tease my hair over it, and it's always bothered me. I saw a product by Joan Rivers that might solve this problem but it was $30, and I didn't even know if I would like it. I ended up finding this fill in powder and it contains the same amount of product for a whole lot less money, so I decided to give it a try. I have very dark brown hair and I didn't know if I would need the dark brown or the black, so I first purchased the split pan that has both shades in it. It turned out that the black blends right in kind of softly, whereas if I use the brown and you are close up you can see it. Also the black is a neutral to cool tone and the dark brown leans a bit warmer and my hair does not have warm tones in it, which could be why the dark brown was more noticeable than the black. Now I don't know if this would cover gray, it's probably not the best product for that, it's more for filling in bald or thinning spots on your scalp so the scalp isn't noticeable which then also creates the illusion of thicker hair! I discovered that when I tried it on my part. The brush that comes with this is pretty bad. It sheds like crazy, but I'm not taking off points for the brush, you can always find an inexpensive dense brush to use instead. As far as application, you kind of wiggle the brush head (not the sides) into the product and then kind of stamp and wiggle it onto your scalp. This stuff has amazing staying power, and lasts until it's shampooed out. I don't see any transfer on the pillow case either, but if you get an itch and scratch your head where the product is it will come off some on the pads of your fingers and under your nails. I've read that some people also use this on their eyebrows, I haven't tried that, but if I do, I'll give an update. Bottom line: This does exactly what I had hoped it would, so I can highly recommend it if you're using it to fill in areas on your scalp where the hair is sparse. Read more
