A dry shampoo not for spraying, but for pouring with an integrated powder pad – that’s something new. Leon Miguel founder Marc Barthel invented it. The German actor from Berlin, also known as singer Jesse D’Lane, works on innovative hair problem solutions with his company. From him also comes the bulk hair Fiber in different hair colors. It has an instant filling effect for receding hairline, hair loss and thinning hair.
Born out of self-interest
Why is hair particularly close to Marc Barthel‘s heart? He himself suffered from the visual consequences of hereditary hair loss in his early twenties, which didn’t exactly help his self-confidence or his career as an actor. Barthel scoured the hair products market for high-quality solutions, but was unable to find what he was looking for. From this situation, the Leon Miguel brand was born under the motto: There’s always better.
In the meantime, however, the Hair Fiber inventor has undergone a hair transplant – as the more permanent solution. But that is only in passing. Back to the “Root Refresh Stick“.
Dry shampoo in pocket size
The Leon Miguel “Root Refresh Stick” consists of a handy, round can at the end of which sits a white powder pad. By pressing it on the hair roots or parting, greasy roots are quickly matted and the hair is to get fresh volume for 24 hours. Apply, massage, brush out and style as usual – says the company’s advertisement.
Easy or not?
If only your roots are greasy, you can refresh them well with the stick. But volume for the rest of the hair? The powder can not keep up with the usual dry shampoos in spray form. With the cushion, the powder simply can not be distributed so generously, it acts rather selectively. And the application also takes longer than a spray puff. However, the fine powder particles of the “Root Refresh Stick” can be combed out without residue and do not stick to the hair.
Conclusion: Well suited if you only want to loosen greasy roots and thus delay a hair wash. Those who want to achieve more volume throughout the hair will not be happy with the product. Positive about the dry shampoo is its handy pocket format – practical even when traveling. And like all Leon Miguel articles, this product is vegan and cruelty-free.

To travel during my profession as a beauty journalist was never enough for my. Also my six month on a world trip didn’t do it. It always attracts me to other cities, foreign countries, on roadtrips and places I don’t know yet. But I am not only interested in “culture” and “cream”, I am also fascinated by people who have stories to tell . Such unique experiences I want to share with you.
Gegen Bad Hair Days gibt es nichts Besseres als Trockenshampoo. Keine Diskussion. Der weiße Puder schenkt den Haaren Grip und Volumen und bringt platte Ansätze sofort wieder zum Stehen. Allerdings hört man immer wieder, Dry Shampoo würde der Kopfhaut schaden und Allergien auslösen. Bloße Spaßverderber oder ist wirklich es dran an den Gerüchten?
Trockenshampoos sind für mich unverzichtbar. Kein anderes Beauty-Produkt ist so praktisch und zeitsparend. Es ersetzt zumindest eine Haarwäsche, saugt wie ein Löschblatt überschüssiges Fett von der Kopfhaut. Die Haare sehen im Handumdrehen wieder frisch aus, die Frisur hat Halt und Volumen. Was will man mehr! Das gleicht kein noch so perfekt geschminktes Make-up aus, wenn die Haare platt und mit fettigen Ansätzen am Kopf kleben. Als Alternative geht dann nur noch Joe Cockers Tipp: leave your hat on!
Trockenshampoo: Was ist drin?
Die typischen Inhaltsstoffe der Sprüh- oder Schütt-Puder sind Silikate (Salze) und Stärke-Mischungen, die oft aus Reis oder Mais gewonnen werden. Sie nehmen den überschüssigen Talg von der Kopfhaut und den fettigen Ansätzen und schließen ihn ein. Das ist der Grund, warum die Haare sofort wie gewaschen aussehen. An diesen Inhaltsstoffen ist nichts problematisch. Hinzu kommen können Duftstoffe, Alkohol, Treibgase, Filmbildner, Talkum und Konservierungsmittel. Wer sehr empfindlich ist und eine extrem trockene Kopfhaut hat, sollte sein Trockenshampoo mit Hilfe einer Produkte-Check-App (z.B. Codecheck) überprüfen. Die gibt genaue Auskunft, welche Stoffe er besser meiden sollte.
Aber kann ein Trockenshampoo tatsächlich Haarbruch, Juckreiz, Schuppen oder gar Haarausfall verursachen, wie man immer wieder mal liest? Dazu sagt L’Oreal-Ambassador und Haar-Profi Manfred Kraft: „Trockenshampoo schadet nicht, wenn man es maximal zweimal pro Woche bis zur nächsten Wäsche anwendet.“ Nur wer es öfter oder gar täglich benutzt und die Veranlagung dazu hat, trocknet seine Kopfhaut damit zu stark aus. „Zudem könnten die Talgdrüsen angeregt werden, vermehrt Talg zu produzieren“, so der Experte.
Trockenshampoo ist kein Reinigungsprodukt
Eines muss man allerdings klarstellen: Trocken-Puder sind kein Ersatz für ein Styling-Produkt und noch weniger für eine echte Haarwäsche. Frauen, die dem Trockenshampoo ihre irritierte Kopfhaut und ausgetrocknete Haare bis hin zum Haarbruch anlasten, haben meist ganz auf die reinigende Wäsche verzichtet mit der Begründung, dass häufiges Haarewaschen ja schädlich für das Haar sei. Aber Trockenshampoo ist nun mal kein Reinigungsprodukt, auch wenn der Name auf eine falsche Fährte führen könnte.
Trockenshampoo absorbiert lediglich das Fett und beseitigt das strähnige Aussehen der Haare. Es entfernt weder Öl noch Schmutzreste von der Kopfhaut, wie das ein Scrub plus Shampoo und Wasser erfüllen.… weiterlesen

I admit it, I am fond of dry shampoos. Especially the new generation, which is transparent and does not leave this despite brushing still visible, ugly gray haze on the hair. I have actually also already tried any amount of such products. With some, as I said, powder residue was visible, others showed hardly any effect and still others made the hair stringy. What do we expect from a dry shampoo? Definetly a refreshing of the hairstyle and a volume boost, with which we can postpone the next hair wash a little while.
Dry shampoo kills bad hair days
That’s exactly what the “Volumising Dry Shampoo” from the new “Volume” series by La Biostethique promises. Although the hair care line, which is based on an extract on Tahitian microalgae, is especially designed for fine hair and mine is anything but fine, but I try it anyway. After all, stringy roots exist in other hair textures as well. You know those Bad Hair Days when your hairstyle flops.
In liquid dissolved powder particles
My test begins: At first glance, the spray bottle with the milky-cloudy liquid does not look like a dry shampoo. I shake the bottle as recommended and then spray in parts directly the roots of my hair with it. There, the extra-fine powder particles dissolved in the liquid care formula which should absorb the excess oil. Magnesium and an active complex of plant proteins and the algae extracts provide new stability and support the structure.
Refreshing volume booster
I like the pleasant fresh scent of the dry shampoo and that the liquid dries immediately in the hair. I massage it in lightly with my fingertips and then brush the hair thoroughly overhead. A look in the mirror: The hairstyle has again stand and fullness, especially at the roots, and my hair looks like freshly washed. The next wash can actually wait until tomorrow or the day after.
