Dry shampoo is becoming a thing. If you ask a bunch of women what their favourite beauty products are at least 1 out of 10 would tell you it is dry shampoo. Let’s face it. No matter how damaging it is, heat styling is becoming a huge thing and dry shampoo is the way to go if you want to keep your style going for a few days.

Also, the popular notion is that washing your hair everyday washes away the essential oils that nourish your hair. This might weaken your hair and render your hair unhealthy. This is where the dry shampoo comes in since it definitely does not leave your hair oily and too conditioned.

Using the dry shampoo

The key to getting the most out of your dry shampoo is to tackle the grease before it even happens. that means you should use it straight after you have dried your hair post-wash.

Particularly, those with finer hair have to be careful since the hair gets oilier more quickly. Spritzing it onto a newly blow-dried style will amp up volume and make your hair last longer between washes too.

What to Use

Picking the right product is essential. If you have darker hair, choose an invisible formula such as Redken Pillow Proof Blow Dry Two Day Extender or Living Proof Healthy Hair Dry Shampoo to avoid a chalky residue.

Blondes might actually find that a powdery formula helps to cover dark roots and promotes a creamier hue – Klorane’s cult classic Oatmilk Gentle Dry Shampoo is one of the best all-purpose formulas.

Application of the Dry Shampoo

Use the dry shampoo as you would use a volumising spray. Start from spritzing your hair in section about two inches apart working down form the paring to the nape.

Hold the nozzle around eight inches from the hair and don’t focus on one area for too long, to avoid product build-up. You can even gently shake your head as you’re spraying it, to make sure it doesn’t all settle in one particular area.
