Do You Dry Shampoo?

The other day my hairdresser was telling me that I am lucky to have oily hair and skin because I will not get wrinkles as early. Looking at my mom and grandma, I believe her. But in the next sentence she was telling me that I should not wash my hair every day. What? How can I have oily, thin hair and not wash it every day?

Her suggestion was to use a little bit of dry shampoo. I will admit that every now and again I use the “baby powder in the hair” trick. But even a little white powder can be mistaken for gray roots. So I don’t love it.

I was reading Good Housekeeping magazine today and they were writing about dry shampoo as well! I thought that it was expensive, so I didn’t get any after my hairdresser suggested it. Turns out that one of the top picks from Good Housekeeping is Batiste Dry Shampoo from Sally Beauty.com, and it is only about $7! That is definitely worth trying. They suggest that you spray it in before bed and brush it through. In the morning, your hair will look fresh. If you are considering trying it, here’s a coupon to save $5 off of $25 with coupon code 555202 (expires August 31).

How about you? Do you use dry shampoo? Does it work? Are you sticking with your baby powder? Do you let your kids use it?
