Dry Shampoo

Refresh your hair with dry shampoo

Life can get busy, and managing your hair wash routine can be time-consuming. That’s where dry shampoo can step in. Designed to help you extend the time between washes, dry shampoo can be a quick and convenient way to refresh your hair.

At Healthylife, we offer a wide selection of dry shampoo from brands like MooGoo, Batiste, and Klorane. Each has unique formulas tailored to different hair types and needs.

What is dry shampoo?

Dry shampoo is a hair care product designed to help absorb excess oil and grease from your scalp, refreshing the appearance of your hair without the need for water. It typically comes in spray or powder form and is often infused with ingredients like starch or alcohol that soak up the oil. Dry shampoos don’t clean your hair, but they may be handy for a refresh between washes. Dry shampoo is not designed to be a replacement for regular wet shampooing.

How do you use dry shampoo?

Dry shampoo is simple to use. Start by shaking the bottle well to ensure the ingredients are mixed. Hold it approximately 30cm away from your scalp and spray lightly, focusing on your roots, where oil tends to build up. 

Massage the dry shampoo into your scalp with your fingertips to distribute it evenly, then brush through to blend it into your hair. Be sure to avoid over-applying, as too much may leave a residue.

How does dry shampoo work?

Dry shampoos work by absorbing oils and greases that accumulate on the scalp, which may make your hair look flat or dirty. Ingredients like alcohol or starch bind to the oil and draw it away from the scalp, helping hair appear cleaner and refreshed​. While dry shampoo may be effective for a temporary fix, it doesn’t remove dirt or fully clean your scalp and may be best used as a complement to regular washing.

Is dry shampoo good for your hair?

The answer depends on your individual needs and the product you use. Some dry shampoo formulas may suit your hair and scalp better than others.

Overusing dry shampoo or relying on it as a complete substitute for washing may lead to residue buildup, which might cause scalp irritation or dryness​. Dermatologists recommend using dry shampoo sparingly, ensuring that you cleanse your scalp thoroughly with regular shampoo as part of a balanced haircare routine. Consider consulting your healthcare professional for specific advice.
