Hair Perfume

hello! what is everyone using for hair perfume these days? I’ve always just sprayed EDPs in my hair, but lately I’m wondering if that could be contributing to dryness. I know there are a lot of brands that make alcohol-free sprays, and bath and body products specifically for hair — what are your go-tos? I was looking at the IPM Sprays from Black Hearted Tart and the Fragrance Mists from Birch & Besom. I know Alkemia has Alcohol Free Perfume Sprays as well, but I have yet to try anything from that house yet. I’ve seen a lot of people mention BPAL Hair Glosses and Haus of Gloi Hair Oils in the daily threads, which I don’t think are what I’m looking for but would love to hear about how you use these and what you use daily. for me, I’m thinking about days when I shower but don’t wash my hair and want a little pick-me-up/refresh — which I feel like is not going to be an oil/product but I could be wrong! scent-wise, I would be looking for something fruity and fresh, but I think most brands would have something suited to everyone’s tastes. basically, what do you use to scent your hair? have I been influenced by algorithms and marketing to feel like I need a separate product from my EDPs? I would love to hear your thoughts!! submitted by /u/fairysalt to r/Indiemakeupandmore [link] [comments]

Hi! I’m new to using fragrances and am first exploring w things I already own and a bunch of samples my neighbor gave me. On TikTok, I’ve been seeing people using fragrances specifically for hair. Tbh it seems like a grift since you can just use a body mist or something else without buying a designated product. What do you guys think? Am I missing out? submitted by /u/drieduphighliter to r/fragrance [link] [comments]

A fresh juicy pear scent. Clean washed hair vibe. Very fruity. submitted by /u/Front-Grapefruit4044 to r/perfumesthatfeellike [link] [comments]

I have naturally curly hair (Irish/German/Viking = translucent bitch with 2C/3A, mid back length when dry, and I'm 5ft10ish so mid back for me is very long, curls). I put a leave in conditioner on AND I spray with my chosen perfume. Done. You may hand my arse to me now. submitted by /u/Tricky-Passion-7191 to r/FemFragLab30plus [link] [comments]

i’m back on my journey to the explore the perfume world. >_< like with the others, you don’t necessarily have to read the little writing i have placed here. but as always, feel free to. 💗 unlike the others, this one is a little more personal to me. i questioned whether to post it or not— but perfumes must be found and i must explore. :,) mommy, i remember our first real argument. what was said, i can’t recall, but i’m pretty sure i aggravated your headache as i stormed down the hall. my throat hurts, my head hurts and god, i wish i hadn’t yelled like that. we were both trying our best, but i didn’t have the empathy to see that. rebelling for the sake of rebelling, with no real intent behind it. even when my words and actions caused harm, you still pulled me into your arms—you told me that you loved me and the time? that was enough. you loved me, i was safe, so i was okay. but mommy, things are changing. we’ve gotten closer, no doubt. mommy, i’d like to think i’m mature—18 is old enough to see reason, i’m sure. i think we understand each other better. mommy, i think i understand you. my throat doesn’t hurt and my headaches stopped a while ago. mommy, i’m all grown up now—i think. but there are still times i wish i was a child—you combing my hair at your bathroom sink. jojoba and olives, cocoa and shea. oh, and how could i forget? your dior perfume. j’adore, it was named. and boy i do remember, as my thick hair was tamed, it filled your whole bathroom. oh, mommy, if i could have it bottled up—not just the perfume, but everything else, that would be nice. it would be just for us and nobody else. i don’t know if i’d wear it—maybe it’d live next to my hair kit… just as your j’adore does. i try to replicate the memory. i do my hair like you, i do my makeup like you. i barge into your room just to be annoying—because sometimes? that’s fun too. but it doesn’t feel the same. mommy, i’m all grown up. i’m not small enough for you to do my hair anymore. no. i’m much too tall now. and i can do my hair just fine—but is it bad that i want to go back to that time? that time when i was small enough to be dragged into your lap for a detangling. that time i was little enough to still look cute in in those loud clacky barrettes. but no, mommy, i’m all grown up now. i’m 18–i don’t wear barrettes anymore. i’m fully grown… fully grown. is it so bad that i miss it? when you hugged me tight and called me your own? ah. mommy? i still like barrettes, you know. submitted by /u/mofuism to r/perfumesthatfeellike [link] [comments]

Longevity is a must, has a scent that is strong but not overpowering, and preferably costs no more than $25. I REALLY love the warm scents. Caramel, vanilla, honey, gourmand, etc. I also love the sandalwood and patchouli type of scents, a little fruity is ok, but I don't like anything that's too floral. Thank you in advance! 🫶🏼 submitted by /u/fairy-of-nightmares to r/beauty [link] [comments]

i’m looking for a hair perfume that leaves a scent trail when people walk by you or when you walk by them. My main preference is anything fruity, floral or vanilla. My main thing is also longevity of the hair perfume! i was debating between gisou, ouai, and kitsch! however, I’m also open to any hair products (not limited to just perfumes) that also smell very good aswell ❤️ submitted by /u/heylolllllll to r/FemFragLab [link] [comments]

A friend mentioned she layers hair perfume with her regular fragrance and I looked at her like she was speaking another language. somehow this entire category escaped me despite being into fragrances for years? apparently hair holds scent differently than skin because no body chemistry interaction, and it creates more of a subtle trail because your hair moves. which actually makes sense now that I think about it. The price range is wild though, byredo charges almost as much as their EDPs for a hair mist and I'm not convinced the juice justifies that just because it's "formulated for hair." Anyway I've been down a rabbit hole and here's what I've tried so far: kitsch warm sugar (the dry down is nice, decent longevity too) ouai (smells good but fades fast for the price) byredo (beautiful but cannot justify spending that much on hair mist) Is anyone else into hair fragrances? curious what's actually worth it in this category beyond the luxury markup stuff. submitted by /u/ssunflow3rr to r/fragrance [link] [comments]

So I bought Vanilla Addiction from Gulf Orchid on sale at TJMaxx. Love the scent, but it only last for 30 minutes to an hour in my skin. I was annoyed that I wasted $8 on it lol. After showering one day I decided to spray some in my hair after my leave in. Yo. It lasts 24+ hours in my hair. If I spray it in my hair at night I can still smell it the next evening before my shower, strong too. I tried a few other of my tjmaxx cheapies in my hair and they all last SO much longer in my hair the difference is crazy. My husband even commented on how good I smelled the next morning while we were cuddling. For whatever reason I never saw the point in hair perfume, but my scent-game is forever changed. I know this isn’t groundbreaking info but I’m so happy I have a use for my weak perfume now! I don’t understand the science, but if you have any low performing perfumes try them out on wet hair. submitted by /u/daddys_lil_meatball to r/fragrance [link] [comments]

23F, little sister is 13F. I live back & forth between my mum’s and my dad’s house. All of my siblings are half-siblings on my dad’s side. I love my little sister but lately I've been getting annoyed about certain boundaries she crosses. She’s obsessed with face cream, hand cream, body spray, perfume, any hair products that smell good, lip gloss/balm - she has a very big collection of all these things. I once sat and counted how many lip stuff she has accumulated over the years and I counted 37. Despite having TONS of her own, she always asks to borrow mine and often ends up using up the entire thing (one of my perfumes was almost completely used up because she would spray it at least 20 times every time she used it) She gets upset if I don’t share my stuff with her. For example, I got a body mist from Bath & Body Works recently because I loved the smell. I decided to leave it at my mum’s house. My sister saw it in the background during a facetime and said “oh that looks like it smells good, can you bring it the next time you come here?!” and I jokingly said something along the lines of “I think we’ve got more than enough perfumes at dads”, and she was visibly upset. I’m quite a patient person so I brush all of this off bc she’s my lil sister and that's just what siblings do, right? But this recent situation has really upset me and I don’t know if I’m overreacting or not. So: It was my birthday on Tuesday. I went to my dad’s to celebrate after work. When I sat down to open presents I noticed that all of them were intact except one, of which the packaging had been ripped open and the contents removed. Hm, weird, so I asked my little sister what happened and she told me that it was one of my brother’s gifts to me (a set that included hand cream, a nail file, a nail/cuticle oil, and a little nail clipper) and she “really wanted to try it” and couldn’t wait for me to open it so she decided to go ahead and open it herself and try everything out. Half the hand cream had been squeezed out of the tube, the nail file was used because it had those tell tale scratches on it, and the small nail/cuticle oil bottle wasn’t closed properly so it was also opened. I understand that, in the grand scheme of things, this isn’t a big deal, but it made me sad that she had just gone and opened my gift like that without even thinking to consult me first. I said to her, verbatim, “You need to stop thinking all of my things are automatically yours too.” Her mum taught her that everything that belongs to your siblings also belongs to you. Her philosophy: siblings share everything. So, setting a boundary is very difficult; My sister got mad because I “never share” my things with her anymore and am “purposely” leaving some of my stuff at my mum’s place to avoid her using them. Her mum called me “quite selfish” for belittling my own sister for wanting to be “closer to me” by borrowing my things. AITA? WIBTA if I continued to be harsh about these boundaries? submitted by /u/lalaokoklalaokok to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

I ordered $320 worth of product during the sale, 3 travel size Killian perfumes, big size necessaire body lotion, body oil, and their new lippie, K18 volume spray, and Kérastase hair leave in. I received my box today (after having a HORRIBLE day) and was so excited to open it. Ripped it open and it has ONE item in it, the lotion. Rechecked my app and it says everything shipped together. Package 1 of 1, package weight approx 4 pounds on the label. The lotion in the box weighed 1.5 pounds. This is how I received it (pictured). Got on chat, was told there was nothing they could do. Called, was told there’s nothing they can do. Talked to a supervisor, told there’s nothing they can do and that they will not escalate further. For some backstory here, I’ve never even returned anything to Sephora, never had a single issue with anything in shipping that could cause me to look like a red flag, and I’ve been rouge every year for the last 10+ years. I am infuriated by this entire situation and the supervisor even acted like I was lying because “they checked the fed ex label and it said it weighed as if everything was in it”. Sephora will never get another penny from me.

You’ve been referred here because you’ve got persistent stains, underarm buildup or a funky smell in your laundry due to oils not being removed thoroughly. This post was last modified 12/11/2025 - it now emphasizes the How of Spa Day instead of including the Why And When. You're Not Alone r/Laundry gets many posts a day about strange odors and persistent greasy stains. Many people recommend this technique or a variation thereof to get textiles suffering from these extremely common problems back to a clean fresh state. What In The Hell Is Spa Day? Spa Day is an intensive enzymatic reset process for textiles that have developed specific stubborn problems related to oily buildup, that won’t wash out in one or two typical washes with optimal product and program selection. It uses concentrated solutions of specific components to degrade oily soils, detach them from fibers and rinse them away. First the items are soaked in the Spa Day soak and then they are washed in the washer in a Rehab Wash to remove the things the Spa Day soak loosened up. There’s an entire post about What, Why & Why Not at What Is Spa Day? How To Spa Day What Do You Need? Container and Chemistry Holding It Together - You need a suitable container. Stainless steel, ceramic, glass or plastic containers large enough to hold the affected textiles but small enough to require a modest quantity of water are best. I am partial to beer coolers, as they hold heat for a long time and often have a drain spigot. If you’re using fragranced products and are concerned about your cooler retaining the perfumes or odor from the textiles, line it with a heavy garbage bag before adding the solution. Front Loading washing machines, even with soak cycles, are not amenable to Spa Day as you can’t keep the items submerged. If your Top Loading washing machine can do high volume soaking (with everything not just damp, but completely submerged) for 8-12 hours, that's a fine option as well, but you're using 20 gallons of water to do it and 5 cups of detergent is expensive. The smallest practical container that will completely submerge the items is the better, more economical answer. Please Don’t Use The Bathtub! - It’s much harder to keep the items submerged in a bathtub and they cool off much faster than in a container with less exposed surface area. The heat helps the chemistry work overnight. You don’t need any room for the items or solution to circulate. You just need the items saturated and submerged. If You Want To Keep The Bath Heated - sous vide circulators or a warming plate or similar gentle heat maintenance can improve Spa Day results if you’re not using a cooler or similar insulated container. Set your bath temperature to maintain 120F/50C - do not exceed 150F/65C as it damages the enzymes before they are exhausted. Chemistry - It’s As Easy As LOAD (formerly A,B,C,L)! Broadly you need four chemistry components; this can take two or three different products, depending on your personal preferences: Lipase - an enzyme that biologically cuts oils from animal or vegetable sources into four smaller pieces that detergent can more easily remove Oxygen - color-safe oxygen bleach lightens stains and rips up odor molecules Ammonia - a gas-in-water booster to improve oily soil removal and help surfactants remove oils from fibers Detergency - surfactants to attach degraded oil to water and rinse it away from the fibers The catch is, no one product can contain all four letters. They’re incompatible for storage, so it takes either two or three products to tick all the boxes. Give Me An A! - Ammonia No matter what other chemistry decisions you make, you will need a source of A - Ammonia, any 2-25% solution of ammonium hydroxide will work. Clear, sudsy or lemon doesn’t matter - it’s the ammonia that counts, not the additives. In the US and Canada it’s typically sold in large plastic jugs in the cleaning products aisle with window and hard surface cleaners, usually on the bottom shelf. It’s also available at home improvement and hardware stores. Outside the US and Canada it may be more easily found in hardware stores than grocers and hypermarkets. The most common brand available in the US is Walmart’s Great Value Clear Ammonia, found on the bottom shelf, under the window and floor cleaners. You will use 2 cups of 2% solution, 1 cup of 5% solution, 1/2 cup of 10% solution or 3T of 25% solution. A Note About Ammonia and Bleach: I’m frequently asked about the hazards of mixing ammonia and bleach. These are real. For chlorine bleach liquids or tablets, the risks of mixing with ammonia are injury and death. That’s what the dire warnings about mixing ammonia and bleach are about - chlorine bleaches, like Clorox or Cloralen. Mixing chlorine bleach and ammonia forms chloramine, a hazardous compound that can injure lung tissue with relatively minor exposure. Don't do that. Ever. You shouldn’t mix full-strength liquid ammonia with dry oxygen booster either, especially in a sealed container, as it will burst as it releases ammonia gas. This is why the instructions for Rehab Wash are very careful to minimize contact between dry powders containing oxygen bleach and the ammonia liquid. The risk from mixing ammonia and oxygen bleaches diluted in water, as used in this method, are limited to getting it on your hair and waiting 45 minutes to an hour, at which point you will be a brassy blonde. Or blond, if you’re a dude. Ammonia + peroxide is the secret of bottle blondes everywhere. It’s perfectly safe. I’m not out here trying to kill people. Follow the method directions below carefully. L, O & D - You Have Choices This has historically been the source of the most questions about the process. Hence why each of the four options has been split out into a separate linked document. Choose an approach before proceeding. Measurements for each component in both stages are in the linked document, along with regional example products. Option 1 - Complete Powder/Tablet in the Spa Day Soak, Complete Powder/Tablet + Liquid Ammonia In Rehab Wash Option 2 - Complete Booster Powders for Spa Day Soak, Complete Booster Powder + Any Detergent + Liquid Ammonia in Rehab Wash Option 3 - Lipase Detergent + Added Oxygen Booster in Spa Day Soak, Lipase Detergent + Added Oxygen Booster + Liquid Ammonia in Rehab Wash Option 4 - *NEW* Enzyme Booster + Any Detergent In Spa Day Soak, Enzyme Booster + Any Detergent + Liquid Ammonia in Rehab Wash Next Stop, Canyon Ranch - It's Time For Your Clothes To Have A Spa Day - The Soak Step S1 - Prepare The Textiles - Sort the affected textiles generally by color - it’s best practice to use separate soaks and washes for at least darks, colors, and whites + neutrals. Red cottons are notorious for bleeding color throughout their lives, so consider soaking them entirely separately. Step S2 - Prepare The Spa Day Solution - dissolve the Spa Day Soak components in hottest possible tap water (up to 140F/60C) and stir until completely dissolved using a wood, plastic or stainless steel implement. You must ensure that all of the granules of the powder are completely dissolved before adding the fabrics. Failure to do so can result in permanent discoloration of items. If you’re unsure if your powder components have fully dissolved, wait five minutes and stir again. The single biggest source of textile damage from Spa Day occurs when product is not completely dissolved and the wet particles settle on clothing causing focal bleaching. This is most common with Vanish/Resolve/Napisan powders in Option 2 chemistry, but all products with TAED are at risk of this side effect. Be especially careful to stir any foam back down into the bath if you're using Vanish/Resolve/Napisan , as fine particles can be suspended in the foam. You will not add any liquid ammonia in this step, regardless of which chemistry option you choose. Step S3 - Add The Textiles - submerge the textiles completely in the Spa Day solution, squeezing and pressing to ensure complete saturation. Textiles need to be completely underwater for the duration of the Spa Day soak. A ceramic plate or mug, or white cotton towels are an excellent way to keep items submerged. Covering the container to keep the heat in longer improves results. Step S4 - Relax And Enjoy Better Things For Better Living Through The Miracle Of Science- Soak 8-12 hours. Just let the process work. No need to stir. Watch cat videos or something. Step S5 - Drain - Drain the textiles. Don’t wring or twist or particularly try to dewater the textiles. Send Those Dirty, Dirty Textiles Straight To Rehab To Clean Up Their Acts! - The Rehab Wash(es) Now it’s time to wash off what the Spa Day soak has loosened up. Enter the Rehab Wash. Step W1 - Load Dry Powders & Liquid Detergent In The Machine - using the dosages and products described in Options 1-4 above, place any liquid detergent components in the dispenser of your machine (if so equipped) and place any powders either in the dispenser configured for powder (if only using powders) or in the bottom of the wash basket. Do not combine liquid and powder ingredients in the dispenser. If you have no detergent dispensers, place the powders and any liquid detergent in different sections of the wash basket so they don’t form clumps. Step W2 - Load Drained Textiles In The Machine - Place a load worth of damp, drained textiles in the machine. For front loaders, this is typically about 75% of the way up the glass when damp. For top-load machines, use as many pieces as you would typically wash, accounting that they will take up less space while sodden. Step W3 - Add The Ammonia - Pour the dose of the A - Ammonia liquid directly on the textiles - the amount ranges from 3T to 2 cups depending on concentration. Most household ammonia in the US and Canada is around 4-5%, so you’ll use 1 cup/250 mL. Do not pour the A - Ammonia in the washer first, nor pour it directly on any powdered products. If you're using a top-load washer, and you're concerned about ammonia odors, allow the washer to fill completely and then pour the ammonia directly into the water. Step W4 - Wash - It's important to start the wash quickly after the textiles are loaded - the powder they're touching is water-activated, and you don't want damp concentrated powder on the items for very long. Wash with a heavy duty cycle, warm or hot water as appropriate for the fabrics, and set the soil level as high as possible to extend the wash process if possible. Choose as many extra rinses as available to reduce any residue left behind. Do not add fabric softener, scent beads, chlorine bleach, borax, washing soda, v1negar, live animals or your hopes and dreams to the wash process. You may add citric acid or v1negar to the softener dispenser to reduce the final pH of the clothing. Please note: Rehab Wash may produce ammonia odors, especially in conventional top-loading machines - in fact, it may smell like the Windex factory exploded. Don’t worry - these fumes will disappear when the fabric is dry. Ammonia is a gas in water; it will evaporate completely leaving nothing behind. You may want to crack a window, turn on a vent fan or avoid the area while washing. People vary substantially in their tolerance of ammonia fumes. Step W5 - Dry - If you’re treating stains or visible underarm buildup, hang to dry when the cycle completes. If you’re treating odors, you may tumble dry on delicate/low heat until mostly dry, but hang to finish, just in case there is a lingering odor. It’s MUCH more effective to rewash when the lingering bits haven’t been baked in with thorough high-temperature drying. Step W6 - Evaluate - If visible stains or perceptible odor remain, you may need to repeat the rehab washes. Start from Step W1 of Rehab Wash If the stains or odors aren’t removed within three rehab washes, they may be permanent and they may not be oil stains at all. Please see Polyquat Spots for details on a common cause of oily-looking stains that can’t be removed by conventional methods. Step W7 - Bask In Your Success - Your textiles should now be clean to touch, feel and smell. Nice work! Keeping It Clean - Maintenance washes: Regular use of any laundry product with lipase (see The Lipase List for a link to a spreadsheet with a maintained list of products) will remove oily stains and prevent buildup and odors. All oily soil removal is improved by using at least a warm / 40C cycle and residue removal is improved by using an acidic rinse product like Downy Rinse Out Odor, Gain Rinse & Renew, Tide Boost, citric acid or v1negar. Citric Rinsing has details on residue-removal rinsing. Pretreating spots and stains with a pretreater or liquid detergent with lipase can virtually guarantee first-wash removal - see the pretreater tab on the sheet linked from The Lipase List ).

This was new to me, a friend recently was spraying something on her hair and the room instantly smelled of vannila and baked cupcakes lol. She got a lot of compliments on it, that's when I heard of hair perfume. Also those movies where the guy smells the girl's hair.. I get it now (altho mine would smell of rosemary oil lol). Do you use hair perfumes? Which ones do you recommend for someone who likes floral scents? submitted by /u/Dee_TP to r/beauty [link] [comments]

Looking for something that smells unique and could also be hair safe. Seems like all the hair stuff smells basic and all the great smells aren’t for hair. Any recos appreciated! Edit: thanks for all the recommendations!!
