How to Use Dry Shampoo

  • Step 1. Avoid spraying dry shampoo directly on the scalp. You actually want to spray directly on hair strands, right above the scalp. It will soak up the oil in the hair and give the appearance of freshly washed hair look.
  • Step 2. Spray underneath each hair section. You want to section the top of your hair off into pieces. Lift up a piece and then spray underneath the hair. Then lay the hair down. Finally, of to the next piece. The trick is to always spray underneath the section of hair for best success. You can use a bobby pin to hold each piece up if needed.
  • Step 3. Don’t spritz too close or use too much product. You want to actually spray 3-4 inches away from the hair. That being said you don’t want to use too much, or you will have white residue. Start with less product as you can always add more.
  • Step 4. Use the correct dry shampoo. If you have dark hair, you need a darker shampoo. You will also find some that will work for both blondes and brunettes.  
  • Step 5. Only apply it to the top of your head. Just lift up a section and spray oil hair follicles. That will help to increase volume as well as reduce oil.

Pro Tips

  • Massage the dry shampoo in. After you have applied it to your hair, let it sit for 2-3 minutes and then rub in it. Just use your fingertips and massage in.
  • Try applying at night. If you know you are going to apply dry shampoo the next day, go ahead and apply it the night before. That will allow the product to soak up any oil while you sleep.
  • Don’t skip using real shampoo in your hair care routine. It is not a cleanser. It’s simply a powder that absorbs any excess oil, which helps in between shampooing.
  • Try applying dry shampoo on clean hair. Did you know that using this can actually help give you volume? Especially fine hair types that often lack volume.
  • Use your blow dryer. Blow drying your hair after you work out or sweat before you apply dry shampoo will help.
