Dry shampoo is initially not bad for your hair. However, you often hear that with long-term use, some problems arise. Dry shampoo naturally ensures that natural fats are removed from your hair and scalp. Repeating this too often for a long period of time means your scalp is getting too clean. Your sebaceous glands will ensure that extra sebum (fat) is produced, which ultimately results in overproduction of sebum (fat). And that's exactly what you don't want! In addition, we do not recommend using dry shampoo for several days in a row, then it can accumulate at the hair follicles, which can cause irritation.

How should you use dry shampoo?
This depends on what kind of dry shampoo you use:
Dry shampoo spray - Spray the contents of the dry shampoo on your hair with a distance of 15-20 cm from your hair. This depends on the dry shampoo you bought, so we always recommend reading the instructions on the canister. Do you have a dry shampoo that is not specific for dark locks? Then we recommend using the dry shampoo from below, especially if you only use it for volume. This way there will be no white / gray haze on your hair, but you will benefit from all the benefits of the relevant Dry Shampoo.
Dry shampoo powder - If you use a powder form, you can distribute this directly on the hair roots or first in your hands. If you go for the former, divide your locks into sections and shake a little bit from the jar on the scalp. Then brush it through or rub it out with your hands. If you use your hands, it is best to bend your head forward during application to prevent wasting the powder. Apply a small amount to fingertips and rub into roots.
Dry shampoo mousse - Divide the hair into sections and apply the mousse to the scalp. Then divide it with your hands. To be able to dose better, you could also first apply the mousse to your hands and then to the scalp.
