4-1-1 On Dry Shampoo

No time to wash your hair? Here's a fuss-free quick fix

WHAT’S A DRY SHAMPOO?

It's a fast-drying spray that automatically "washes" your hair and scalp. It provides a temporary water-free option but, like any other shampoo, it does the job of cleaning your hair. Some absorb immediately after application while others take a while to do their magic. Ultimately, dry shampoos leave your hair feeling clean and smelling good when you're in a fix.

WHY SHOULD I GIVE DRY SHAMPOO A SHOT?

It's a lifesaver when you're travelling because you can chuck it in your beauty bag. It also doesn't take time, so when you're desperate, you can simply give your mane a quick cleanse. But, don't overuse it. Give your hair a thorough wash with a normal shampoo and water when you're settled.
