It’s no secret, if you read my blog, that dry shampoo is definitely one of my favorite hair care products, not only for adding instant volume on limp hair days but also for extending the time between washes.
One of the biggest challenges from people who have tried to go one or two days in between washes, which I hear over and over again, is that their hair becomes too sweaty or greasy from a workout, and it’s hard to find a dry shampoo that truly absorbs the excess oil. I challenge you to try one of my favorites, Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo.
What’s Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo?
This Sexy Hair product is a clay based, mineral and talc free dry shampoo, absorbing excess oil, product buildup and impurities. It contains UV (ultraviolet) filters protecting hair against damaging sunlight and creates instant texture and volume. Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo is safe for color-treated hair, and by lengthening the time between washes, it helps prolong hair color.
Directions for use: Be sure to spray 8 inches (about 20 centimeters) away from the scalp, focusing on roots. Let it sit for about 1 to 5 minutes and then brush excess product out. Style as usual. (Read more…)
My Experience
This dry shampoo is for the greasiness of greasy day-old hair. When I am going for a prize to extend the shampoo an extra day when I probably shouldn’t or, I’ve done a tough workout at the gym, this is my go to dry shampoo.
Your dark hair won’t be lightened because this Dry Shampoo is not powder based. However, it is clay and mineral based so you’ll feel this dry shampoo in your hair more than some other products which are powder based and less effective. The upside: you will love the way your hair feels and looks with styling texture and mega volume, and zero greasiness. The downside: you may dislike the feeling of this dry shampoo in your hair. Sometime, I guess you have to compromise, right? 🙂
I truly adore this dry shampoo and highly recommend it for all hair color and types. It is excellent for girls with fine hair that needs volume, and also adds an unparalleled thickness to the hair. Even if your hair is oil or you can NOT bear to go one single day between washes, this dry shampoo is an amazing styling aid to amplify the volume and control the grease. In addition, I take it as a base product for up styles or, before teasing my hair, to spray on my roots.
The Benefits of Dry Shampoo
By using a dry shampoo, the benefits to your scalp and hair are quite extensive:
Shampooing less saves money. Your traditional conditioner and shampoo last a lot longer, you’ll use less electricity to style your hair and less water in the shower.
Shampooing less is healthier for your scalp. You’ll experience less drying because a detergent is not daily used on your hair, which also allows your natural oils to balance. Healthy hair starts from a healthy scalp.
Shampooing less saves you lots of time. You could save several steps in the shower (no conditioning or shampooing necessary), no hair drying time, and to create volume in your hair style, a lot less time is needed.
Shampooing less helps extend the life of hair color. A dry shampoo could help you win the battle if you fight hair color fade. Your hair color could be literally washed off with traditional shampoo.
