How To Use Dry Shampoo

Sometimes we are so worried about using masks , hair serums or other extra products to give our hair shine, that we neglect the essential: shampoo . There can be many types, from those that cover the first gray hair to solid shampoos like the one used by Juana Acosta , but the essential thing in a shampoo is to look for the one that meets the needs of our hair (basically what you do when choosing a cream facial).

And if that works for regular shampoos, why wouldn’t it work for dry shampoos ? This type of product has as many defenders as detractors but, with a few honorable exceptions, those who belong to this second group tend to hate it due to ignorance, for not using it as they should .

The truth is that this type of shampoo is our salvation to keep hair clean and shiny without having to resort to traditional washing that can weaken our hair if you do it excessively. After leaving the gym, to keep those strands of hair that get dirtier because we can’t stop touching them or wearing scandalous bangs at bay, dry shampoo is your best ally. But not only that. If you have fine hair, this type of shampoo provides a sensation of volume and, although it may seem unbelievable, with dry hair it does a nourishing and protective job.

Before making our selection of the best dry shampoos according to your hair type, we are going to give you some guidelines to use it properly :

1. The first thing you should do is untangle your hair and separate it into sections.

2. Shake the bottle before use so that the product formula is evenly distributed throughout the container.

3. Spray the product on each of the sections of your hair only on the roots about 30 centimeters away. If you apply it too close, it is very likely that it will leave clumps or a white layer that is very difficult to remove.

4. Let it act for about 10 minutes. This step is very important for the product to perform its function and sometimes, in the rush of day to day, we skip it.

5. Shake your hair with your fingers, gently massaging the roots to remove excess product.

6. Brush carefully to finish removing residual powder and allow the product to blend throughout the length of the hair.

7. Clean hair! You can now go out into the street to show off a scandalous mane.

And now yes, we go with the selection of the best dry shampoos according to your hair type . Try them and tell us:
