A Sephora reviewer says: “I developed really thin hair after having thyroid cancer, and this has made my now fine hair get very oily. I’m trying to move away from products containing talc, so I thought I would give the mini size a try, and I’m glad I did. I sprayed it on the roots, rubbed it in, and my brown hair was as good as new without any white residue. It also lasts for several days, so you wouldn’t need to reapply unless you felt it was needed. I know it’s also not a feature, but it did improve the volume of my hair at the scalp, probably because there was no oil to weigh it down. I started buying the full-size cans because I like it so much.”
