How root lifting powders work

These powders add texture and grip, so hair holds a lifted shape and looks fuller at the roots. Many also soak up a little oil, which keeps roots looking fresh.

Using them well

  • Part hair into sections, and shake powder directly onto the roots.
  • Massage with your fingertips and lift as you go.
  • Style as usual, and brush or shake out any excess.

Choosing a shade

Most are clear or white and blend in as you massage. Darker hair may prefer tinted or dark-friendly formulas.

What to look for

  • Clear or tinted formulas that blend with your hair.
  • A shaker top that dispenses a small amount.
  • Texture: a lightly gritty formula gives the most grip.
