Truth is, even if you do have dry shampoo somewhere in your cabinet of delights, you may not be using it the right way – which means you’re not getting the full amazing benefit of dry shampoo.
Let’s start with the essentials: do you have the right dry shampoo for your hair type? If you just walked into a store and picked up the first dry shampoo that caught your eye, chances are – you don’t.

It doesn’t matter whether your friend loves a particular brand – what matters most is your hair type, hair colour, and hair goals. That combo is likely to be unique, and you will want to look for a dry ‘poo that matches what you are and what you want.
Whatever you want, the perfect dry shampoo solution is out there – and it’s just waiting for you to find it!
Once you have your dry shampoo, you will also want to make sure that you apply it the right way so that you get maximum bang for your buck.
This isn’t the 1980s, the extra-large big hair helmet era, which means you don’t need to spray the entire bottle all over your head. While this won’t hurt you by adding plenty of texture, most of us just want the freshly-washed look.
Getting the freshly-washed look requires a lot less product: simply part your roots, spray them, then use a brush to brush out the dry shampoo from your roots to tips. This will spread the dry shampoo, absorb more built up oil, and give you a nice extra bounce and volume.

Your Hairbrush Is Your Best Friend
Rapunzel might have been onto something – but unlike us, she didn’t have the benefit of dry shampoo! Instead of applying dry shampoo to your roots, you can simply spray some onto your brush.
Wait a few minutes after applying, then start brushing your hair with a slow, focused motion to make sure your hair and scalp is absorbing the dry shampoo – we like using a zig-zag movement.
Using a loose powder instead of a spray? It can be hard to blend the powder using a brush or your fingers, so try applying the dry shampoo to your roots with a makeup brush – the fluffier, the better! This trick ensures that the powder blends in nicely while giving great coverage.
You might think that dry shampoo is for use outside the home, but it has one other use that can give you fabulous hair first thing in the morning. Simply apply to your roots, go to bed, and wake up with fabulous hair the next morning.
Just don’t play with your hair afterward – as tempting as it is to play with your tousled tresses, the natural oils in your hands will get to work on your hair which means you’ll have to start all over again!
Finally, don’t fall too much in love with dry shampoo – too much of a good thing ruins everything, and dry shampoo is no different. Too much can dry out your scalp, leaving you with dreaded dandruff.
…and ladies, it should go without saying that dry shampoo doesn’t work on wet hair. It won’t do anything, and you’ll end up wasting your time and money. So, don’t do it!
All you have to do is remember and apply these simple dry shampoo tips, and you’ll be rockin’ your best hair all day, every day!
