Sunday crisis > AVERTED!


SUNDAY WASN'T SO FUN-DAY! 
11.12pm. Sunday. Dirty hair. Ready for bed. Monday. Meetings. Need to look good! AGHH! (that is pretty much how it panned out!) >


SO... WHAT DOES DRY SHAMPOO ACTUALLY DO: 

Dry shampoo is a powder that usually comes in an aerosol spray can, that absorbs the oil/hair dirt (sebum) from your hair. It also adds volume, and gives your hair a fresh and clean appearance without water. It works particularly well in blonde hair and lightens up the roots. 

WHEN SHOULD YOU USE DRY SHAMPOO: 

Dry shampoo should really only be used in SOS situations. Or, on a Sunday evening at 11.12pm because you didn't plan ahead! It is important that you do not replace your normal shampoo/cleaning routine with this product. It is designed purely for intermittent use between normal shampoo washes. Depending on the frequency of your 'normal washes', it is ideal for a second or third day touch-up between. 

APPLICATION TIPS & SIDE EFFECTS:

There are many ways to skin a cat, but, here are my tips from experience. The first step is to comb through your hair to get rid of any existing tangles. Then, spray the aerosol can approx. 15 - 20cm from the desired area (hair line, hair part, behind the ears - oily prone areas). I found when I sprayed the powder directly onto the scalp it caused severe irritation and left a white residue (similar to dandruff). Once you have sprayed the shampoo onto the desired area (from a small distance), either with a brush or your hands, give it a good comb through. This will spread out the powder and evenly absorb any oil.

    1. Absolutely! I also find it helps with styling. A little grittiness is a must for hold and shape.
