If you’ve ever wondered how women can get away without washing their hair for a week, the answer is Dry Shampoo. However, this handy beauty aid is not only good for cleaning your hair when you don’t want to wash, but is great during natural disasters when you don’t have access to water to wash your hair the traditional way.

Dry shampoo is generally made from a talc base combined with products to volume and deodorize your hair. It can either be found in a powder or aerosol spray form, both work equally well. To use a dry shampoo in powder form you work it into your hair as you would a traditional shampoo then just brush the powder away. Spray dry shampoo only requires that you spray the roots of your hair, then simply brush away the excess.

There are marked benefits and draw backs to using dry shampoo spray. It can be great if you are wanting to preserve a new hair-do or if you just don’t have time to wash your hair traditionally. Dry shampoo is also great for lengthening the time between dying your hair, since you won’t be washing it as much. Also, because you won’t have to blow dry your hair, it will not get as much heat damage as normal. It is also great for when you are trying to create or maintain a hairstyle that benefits from your hair being a bit dirty (like Amy Winehouse’s beehive). One major drawback is that it doesn’t clean as well as traditional shampoo and you may be left with residue on your hair. You can use dry shampoo for about a week or so, before you will notice that it is not working as well to tame the oils and smell and you will have to wash it the traditional way. In the end it boils down to your needs and preferences, sometimes having it as a tool after getting in a quick work out at the gym can be an unbelievable aid. It can really make the difference especially if you like to go to the gym early in the morning and do not have enough time for a full hair wash. This is the perfect solution to that problem, and lets admit it washing your hair properly can take along time and its not even healthy to do on a daily basis. Using a Dry Shampoo is the ultimate get up and go fix.
