Dry shampoo is a marvel of modern beauty. What did we ever do before it? To me, it’s like life before the I-Phone..life was just more time-consuming. Don’t even get me started on life before google maps! This is how important dry shampoo is to the lifestyle of the working woman or (man.)

From the gym to the office to the city’s hottest nightspots dry shampoo gives you versatility without a single drop of water! Dry shampoo is the beating heart of hair’s go to cult products that clean the hair, add volume or add some texture before curling or heat styling. If you’re not already a fan…You should be, because they have evolved beyond the corn and rice starch products of yesteryear so check out  some of the below hot hair brands and what they have to offer! With your upcoming honeymoon, this gem of the hair world will save you hours of styling time leaving you for more time for adventure. It’s a fine hair person’s saviour without adding weight and great for adding love to the end of your ponytail or volume to your braids! If you are thinking about a destination wedding and the weather is hot and humid make sure you pack one or two of these away in your case before departing.

Not all dry shampoos are created equal. Now they come with added extras like hairsprays, texturizers and volumisers.

  • Oribe– microfine powder that leaves your hair refreshed for days- a celeb favourite.
  • Bumble and bumble dry spun-so light that this is a fine haired person’s dream-it has a soft hold hairspray included too that helps add texture and holds shapes.

HOW TO

Lift the hair and spritz lightly at the roots to the mid lengths to freshen and revive your hair and its style. To add volume-spray the dry shampoo throughout your hair right through to the ends. Spray through the ends of your hair to add extra volume to help texturize your ponytail or add thickness to your braids.
