Review: Jonathan Product Green Rootine Dry Shampoo

Like many women with long hair, I don't wash my hair every day. I often go two or three days between shampoos, and sometimes more if I'm feeling lazy. Dry shampoo is a lazy girl's best friend. It usually comes the form of a powder that helps absorb oils and keeps your hair looking fresh. Jonathan Product makes a Vegan version called Green Rootine Dry Shampoo.

Pros:
  • Effectively absorbs oils
  • Reduces shine
  • Blends in with hair color
  • Vegan and gluten-free
  • Brush allows a great degree of control (twist to allow more powder through)
  • Easy to apply
Cons:
  • May require reapplication throughout the day
Summary:
Green Rootine Dry Shampoo is a nice option when you can't wash your hair but want to keep it looking fresh. It is easy to apply and comes in an applicator with a brush. I'd love to see refills for sale, as I currently only see the applicator version in the brand's web store. The powder did work well, but I found that I needed to reapply once or twice throughout the day. The small, portable size and on-the-go applicator makes this possible, but I'd love it if the product lasted longer. While this product rated relatively low 3 on EWG's Skin Deep database, the ingredient aluminum starch octynylsuccinate weighs in at a heavy 9. However, I love that this product avoids many harsh chemicals, comes in two colors, and is both gluten-free and vegan. If you want a vegan dry shampoo, this dry shampoo is a nice option.

Also available on Amazon.com: dark and light shades.
