When and How to Use Dry Shampoo



Dry shampoo: the superhero of hair products, yet sometimes the sidekick we don't fully understand. Fear not, dear readers! We're here to demystify the magic of dry shampoo and help you use its powers like a pro. So, when and how should you use this hair savior? Let's break it down with tips straight from our hair styling experts from your neighbourhood Westboro hair salon! 


How to Use Dry Shampoo? 

Using dry shampoo is as easy as pie, once you've got the hang of it. Here's a foolproof guide to make sure your hair gets the TLC it deserves: 

  • Start with dry hair. Dry shampoo works its wonders best on hair that's gone a day or two without a wash – the oilier, the better! 

  • Shake that bottle like you mean it! Give it a good shake to ensure the product is well-mixed. 

  • Section your hair and hold the bottle about six inches away. Then, give your roots a gentle spray in short bursts until they're lightly coated. 

  • Time for a little massage! Use your fingertips to work the dry shampoo into your roots, absorbing excess oil like a champ. 

  • Brush it out, baby! Grab your trusty paddle brush or wide-tooth comb and give your hair a good brush-through to distribute the product evenly and style to perfection. 



Do You Use Dry Shampoo Before or After Showering? 

Ah, the age-old question! There's no right or wrong answer – it all boils down to personal preference. Some folks prefer using dry shampoo before showering to zap away excess oil and build-up. Others swear by post-shower use, treating it like a preventative shield against grease. Whichever camp you're in, just remember to shake that bottle and target those roots for a flawless finish! 


Do You Use Dry Shampoo on Clean or Dirty Hair? 

Both, my friend! Dry shampoo is a lifesaver whether your hair is squeaky clean or dancing with a bit of dirt. However, it truly shines on slightly dirty hair. If your locks are feeling extra greasy, a quick wash followed by dry shampoo can work wonders. And hey, sometimes prevention is the best medicine – using dry shampoo before the oil takes over can save you from a bad hair day! 


Do You Use Dry Shampoo in the Morning or at Night? 

Whenever the hair gods decree it necessary! Whether it's a morning emergency or a bedtime ritual, dry shampoo is there to save the day. Feeling a bit oily? Hit snooze on the grease with a morning spritz. Prefer to prep ahead? A nighttime application can set you up for success come morning. Just remember, a little goes a long way – don't OD on dry shampoo, lest you risk a hair catastrophe! 

 

Whether you're rocking Westboro hair for the morning rush or a lazy night in, let dry shampoo be your trusted sidekick in the battle against bad hair days!
