Dry Shampoo 101
As straightforward as the blowout-extending concept seems, there’s nuance to a good dry shampoo and finally the best advice in how to get the most out of your blowout. The right product will deliver the perfect finish to your platinum blonde or the right amount of grip to a deconstructed braid or sleek ponytail. To that end, here is the ultimate tip for proper application and our favorite dry shampoo products to stock up on.
Tip #1 Spray an aerosol formula along roots in sections. Wait 2 minutes then run through them with a boar-bristle brush. This allows enough time for the dry shampoo to completely absorb the oils wearing your hair down.
Tip #2 Do this trick before bed and then again in the morning when you wake up.
