How to Use Dry Shampoo on Natural Hair
It really works for everyone.
Dry shampoo is a product that many women of color tend to walk right past when shopping for hair care products. Since natural hair is dry, why would someone with this hair type want to use dry shampoo? Sounds like adding salt to a wound. Now that we are spending all of our time at home, trying something new sounds extra appealing, especially if it’s going to improve our strands. Although it is true that dry shampoo helps absorbs excess oil (which is great for people with oily hair types), there are other uses that are beneficial for women with natural hair textures. Using dry shampoo on natural hair can actually work in your favor!
Using Dry Shampoo on Natural Hair
Want to get the lowdown on how you can get the most of dry shampoo on natural hair? Read on to learn the many ways you can use this product
1. Use Dry Shampoo on Braided Hairstyles
When wearing protective braid styles like box braids and cornrows long term, dry shampoo can come in really handy. Washing braids too often can lead to frizz and lose braids. Instead, you can maintain the look of your style by using a dry shampoo to refresh your scalp and hair. Spray a dry shampoo like Dove Care Between Washes Clarifying Dry Shampoo on your hair in between washes.
2. Maintain Straight Hairstyles
After straightening naturally curly hair—whether it’s with a blow-dryer or flat iron—the natural sebum from your scalp now has the ability to travel down your hair strands. In addition to this, you may also be using products like serums and oils that enhance the look of your style. A mixture of products and natural sebum can cause buildup which causes your strands to look limp. For a quick fix, use a dry shampoo on natural hair. We recommend using a volumizing dry shampoo for situations like these. Apply Dove Refresh+Care Volume & Fullness Dry Shampoo.
3. Use Dry Shampoo to Reverse Product Application Mistakes
Ever applied way too much of a product by accident? It happens to the best of us! Whether you’re wearing your natural hair straight, curly, short, or long, you can use a dry shampoo on your hair to remove excess product. This method is extremely beneficial when you don’t have time to wash your hair. If so, dry shampoo can provide you with a quick fix.
