Wait A Sec™ Dry Shampoo

Wait A Sec™ (A play on the French word “sec,” meaning “dry”) is a science-backed powder dry shampoo that adds volume and includes our clinically efficacious peptide combined with antioxidants to preserve and stimulate pigment without leaving a white residue.

  • Absorbs excess oil and adds volume
  • Non aerosol tinted powder
  • Dehydrated Mela-9™ Complex slows and helps repigment grey hair 
  • Made with clean ingredients, vegan, cruelty-free and gluten-free
  • Designed to be used in conjunction with The System or Shower Duo

DESCRIPTION

Our gentle non-aerosol powder dry shampoo adds volume and refreshes hair without leaving hair feeling weighed down. Wait A Sec is formulated for all hair types with a subtle tint that won't leave a white residue, and includes our signature all-natural fragrance of cedar and sage to help even lived-in hair smell refreshed.

USAGE

Shake well and apply to dry hair and scalp in sections, holding the bottle about 1-2” from the head. Use fingertips to distribute amongst scalp and hair.

Opting in to Auto-Replenish is the best way to maintain lasting results. One bottle of Wait A Sec typically lasts around three months. If you use 5 pumps a day or less, we'd recommend a 90-day frequency. If using more than 5 pumps a day, we would recommend a 60-day frequency.

    Love this

    Powdery type dry shampoo. Works great, lots of volume. Have dark hair and haven’t noticed white powder left behind.

    No weird smell

    Most dry shampoos have an overpowering smell or a weird feeling to it. This works great for my hair and doesn’t give me a headache with a strong smell. It also doesn’t feel like it leaves a buildup, which other brands do.

    Great dry shampoo !

    I love this product. I tried many dry shampoo but this one is amazing. I work out every day and honestly I do not want to wash my hair ever day. Thanks to this product my hair looks great all the time. Will highly recommend it.

    It’s good

    The best part about it is it’s tinted and you know you won’t strip color by using it. It will give you another day but it 1) spreads poorly like all their products and 2)as a result you have to use a lot of it and 3) your gaur will feel tangled so you have to be very gentle after application. Also beware if you travel- half will leak out.

    Hi Amber, thank you for your review and we are glad to hear you are enjoying Wait A Sec. Please make sure to hold the bottle around 8 inches from your hair so that the poof can distribute the product throughout your hair. And for travel, make sure to tighten the pump and cap!

    So far so good

    I’ve only been using it for 2+ weeks but it feels good to try and be proactive on my grey hairs. I have hope it’ll work.
