Dry Shampoo 101: How to make it your new beauty BFF

By Cat Juan Ledesma

2016 has been a year of beauty discoveries. One of the most wonderful secrets revealed is the much-loved dry shampoo that gets all the raves for its amazing benefits. It does make your hair smell good, fights oiliness, and keeps your locks look great even if you’ve just stepped out of the gym. This holiday season, the dry shampoo makes one beauty best friend to count on.

With the number of Christmas parties that you’ve been going to this month, we’re sure that heading to the salon for styling is going to cost you more than the ordinary. Dry shampoo is here to help lengthen the life of your blow out, and give you some extra lift when needed. Here’s how to make sure you’re getting all the benefits out of this wonder powder or spray:

  1. Patience is a virtue: Be sure to wait at least five minutes before shaking or brushing out the dry shampoo. It needs time to absorb oils and do its work.
  1. Don’t spray too close: If you’re using the spray version, be sure to hold the can at least six inches away from the scalp to avoid just getting blobs of white that are actually tricky to remove.
  1. A little goes a long way: Dry shampoo should be used sparingly because too much just makes hair look dull and actually builds up on your scalp to cause flakes. I recommend a clarifying shampoo after using as well.

Since the beauty world has tons of options to give you, we’ve listed down our tried-and-tested dry shampoos worth buying at Calyxta:
