Washing your hair everyday is quite damaging to your hair. You should only wash your hair thrice a week if your hair tends to get oily. If you don't have an oily scalp you can get away with washing your hair twice a week.
When you are in a hurry or have a busy schedule dry shampoo comes to the rescue. If you want to prevent washing your hair too often you should use dry shampoo. Dry shampoo is an excellent solution when you have a sudden plan to go to a date, an important event or a quick meetup with friends.
How to use a dry shampoo:
Dry shampoo usually comes in a spray or powder form. You either spray the product on to your roots massage it in for a few seconds and then brush your hair as normal. If it is a powder you can either directly put it on to your scalp or you can put it in your fingers and rub it in on to your scalp. Massage it in and then brush and style it as you please.
What dry shampoo does:
It soaks up oil from the scalp leaving it feeling clean and fresh. It also makes the hair smelling good and fresh because of the scent present in the dry shampoo.
The bonus is that dry shampoo also gives a boost of volume to the hair.
There are several dry shampoos in the market (Like Aveda, Dove, Kardashians, Tresemme, Lo'real Elvive clay, schwarzkopf, Klorane, Ojan, Paul Mitchell, Garnier, Fudge Urban etc )but all don't do the job well some leave the hair feeling more greasy, Some make it feel very drying and rough, and some leave a white cast which is not a good look.
I personally used Batiste dry shampoo. It has a very wide range but the one I used was for brunettes/ dark and deep brown. It has a bit of colour too which prevents white cast. and also does its job well.
But since I have switched to Co Lab Sheer+Invisible Dry shampoo I have not looked back. It is extremely effective, It doesn't leave any residue it makes the hair feel non-greasy, clean and fresh. It comes in various lovely fragrances. And It is also quite long lasting.
It has a version called Co Lab volume extreme Dry shampoo which gives a good volume and saves me the time of using a volumizing product. But it is not invisible as the original dry shampoo it gives a white cast when you spray it but once you brush through your hair it goes away. It also works as a setting spray as it hardens the hair too to set it.
There is also a new addition to the collection which is the Co Lab Luxe shine. I haven't tried it yet but will keep you updated if I do. As the name suggests makes the hair look shiny and lustrous. Making the hair look youthful and healthy. Hence "runway ready".
There is a new one coming out soon called the Co Lab Active.
In terms of the price it is a drugstore product hence it is very inexpensive and excellent product. I would say it is better than a lot of high end dry shampoos out there. It is easily available in Superdrug or Boots UK.
Dry Shampoo a product associated with women but my hubby loves using it too on second day hair when he is in a hurry and it smells good too. And I don't see why not is does the job well ...In terms of fragrance he uses the Co Lab London - classic fragrance which is quite neutral and also my favourite fragrance too. It comes in smaller sizes hence it is very travel friendly.
You can also make dry shampoo at home it is very easy and in expensive. I will tell you in my next coming posts. If you would like me to review any specific dry shampoo or may be a powder formula please let me know in the comments below my lovely angels!!
