Dry shampoo: how does it work?
What is it : First, let's be clear, dry shampoo is not a real shampoo, in the true sense of the word. It will not replace your usual shampoo with water. No miracle here of the style "I shit and hop, I'm leaving for three days". This is a troubleshooting solution that can push his shampoo for a day or save his mane if our hair reaches the end of life and there is no time to do a real shampoo for example . This powder based on absorbent actives (usually rice or corn starch, clay, oats) is most often in the form of a vaporizer. Once applied, it absorbs the sebum, thus making the hair look cleaner.
How to use it : The dry shampoo is used without water and applies to dry hair. The product is sprayed 30 cm from the hair, at the root level. There is no point in applying it to the tips because the sebum usually concentrates on the roots. We do well dry shampoo along the lines, on the top but also the underside of the mane. It does not hesitate to lift his hair to distribute the product. We then wait a few minutes (everything depends on the shampoo) and, depending on the product used, it will be necessary to brush vigorously, or massage with the fingers, or rub with a towel to remove the powder.
Be careful not to have your hand too heavy at the time of application otherwise you will do more harm than good. This can indeed turn to the cat, dry shampoo accident is fatal for the look. We remember the white mane of Kate Moss during the Longchamp evening a few years ago that was apparently not a will of the top to launch a new fashion (even if it was the case) but a big failure beauty.
Who is it for : Since one must vigorously brush the hair afterwards, it is not for the curly or curly hair, the brush being forbidden to them between two washes under penalty of turning Jackson Five with a foamy mane. On the other hand, it can be very useful for fast-regreasing hair, for those who are tired of washing their hair every day or, occasionally, for normal hair to help out in case of emergency. It is also perfect if you go on vacation in waterless mode on the horizon or on a hike.
Small flat: If it absorbs the sebum, it makes the hair dull because by matting it necessarily extinguishes the shine, especially on dark hair. Finally, on some hair, the dry shampoo does not work. Some will have the impression of having the dirtier hair after (often because the product was badly eliminated).
The beauty trick
We can divert his dry shampoo and use it as a hairstyle. It brings volume to the hair and gives it texture. Not bad for thin hair or without form. To do this: after having sprayed the product, brush or massage the hair upside down.
