I did mine with roughly equal parts of tapioca starch, baking soda (I wanted the texture to make it more of a volumizing powder), sandalwood talc, turmeric, ginger power, cinnamon powder. These colors work great with my warm blonde hair and don't look like I just dumped baby powder into my roots. Works great!

I know this is an older comment but if it's of any benefit to you it took way longer than a month for me to train my hair. If you have extremely oil hair then you may not be able to train your scalp but it's worth a shot if you don't have any major scalp issues/concerns. 😊

Thank you once again. I just tried this this morning and loved it too. May hair is quite dark brown so i added quite a bit of cocoa. But it did work really well. In fact I am really impressed with the cocoa idea. As I've tried commercial dry shampoos in the past and they weren't create for me. Besides the scary chemicals in them, they tended to leave a whilte film in my hair. Even when brushed out, some remained. With the cocoa, you apply, brush out and all is fine. Hair is clean looking, with body. And no residue showing. Very impressed. I added Rose EO to mine as I thought chocolate and rose ought to smell good together, Tney did also because I used to much cocoa that is by far the predominent scent. I could see it will Sweet Orange EO too! Orange and chocolate imo would be good togehte4r too. Anyway, thanks once again for another hit.:-)

I'm an avid newcomer here. LOL I made this tonight..LATE. I applied it and hoping to NOT wash my hair tomorrow. I didn't have cocoa powder but I used a smidgen of cacao because even though I have a few grays, I have very light brown hair. I also have to wash my hair or it sections off and exposes my ears and it's very embarrassing from the back view. I guess that's where all my oil comes from. So, use this daily until the next wash?

@@cynthia5082002 I haven't noticed any drops. What I do is once I have applied it to my hair with a make up brush, I leave it for about 5 minutes to let it soak into my hair. Then I will comb my hair to make sure there won't be any fallout, or flip your head over and kind of rub it into your scalp. When you do this you may get a few bits on the floor, so make you do it over a sink or put a towel on the floor. But after you have done that there shouldn't be any that falls out over the day. As for rain, I haven't been out in the rain so idk. But I would just make sure you always cover your head if you're in rain cause it might start to come out if you get really wet. If it's only light rain it shouldn't be a problem, only if you're in heavy rain.
