Instead of baby powder I use scented dusting powder as I don't really like the smell of baby powder! You can also combine using powder to de-grease hair with the modern dry shampoo sprays. This will help you get over the residue on your scalp, which often necessitates you washing your hair soon after a powder dry shampoo. This will make the commercial dry shampoo spray last longer, as you will need less.

Using powder to de-grease your hair. Be it with baby power or dry shampoo is not a good idea. This makes your hair more greasy (reaction of scalp). If you want to stop your hair greasing, you must supply grease. I mean that once a week, massage olive oil on your scalp, about two spoonfuls. Put a towel around your head for at least one hour then shampoo with a mild one.
After a month (or so...) of this treatment, your hair will stop to grease by itself progressively. Then you will have to do this only once per quarter.

I agree with this and I like the Avon fragrance powders. They are cornstarch based and come in very nice different scents.
