Dry shampoo???

Does anyone ever use it?  I'm interested in trying it, to add a little body and volume in between shampoos.

I don't need it b/c I have dry hair, but I use it on DD's hair. It works.

I have super oily hair, and none of them work for me. I end up with a head of hair coated with white powder that has to be washed out. Not worth it for me.

 They make dry shampoo for darker hair so it's not white powder.

I've tried one - it still was a mess of powder. And I have good - very very good - brushes.

Like momala, I have never had any luck with dry shampoo. It just makes a mess and doesn't soak up the oil.

Don't spray it on top of your head. Lift your hair in small sections and spray it under, then massage your head a little, and then let it sit a few minutes before you brush it.

I use them and I have dark hair. It's trial and error to find one that works for you. I like Klorane (High end $25ish) and Batiste ($6). I spray and let sit for a few minutes then rub in as if I was shampooing and then brush out. No white residue that way.

I think it works great if you get a fancy blow out and want to extend it.

I absolutely hate to blow dry my hair myself. Like, it's one of the worst chores ever.

I just want to add some more fullness at the crown in between shampoos and thought it might help.

You know the old ladies with the up dos?

Those full, rounded up dos.

After my great grandmother passed, the family was cleaning things out.

In her vanity drawer was little balls of hair.

She never cut her hair. Her church didn't believe in women cutting their hair, other than bangs.

Anyway. When she brushed her hair, she would clean out the brush, roll up what came from the brush and save it.

Once every two or three weeks she would wash her hair and when she put it back up, she used those little balls between washings to get the fullness.

 I didn't know until my aunt told me. 

Can you imagine never cutting your hair?

Her hair, when down, would lay in a pile on the floor. Took her a whole day to wash and brush.

 I have heard of hair receivers. That's how those Victorian ladies got their big updos. 

I cannot imagine never cutting my hair. It drives me crazy when it gets long enough to get caught in chairs and such.

She always had it up. The only time it was down was on the day it was washed.

Guess that's who influenced me. Mine got long enough I sat on it.

 Me too. My hair is super thick and drying it with a hair dryer takes me at least half an hour. By that time I am sweating so much that I need another shower. I ❤️ dry shampoo for this reason. It buys me another 2 - 3 days! 

I also apply it the way LL and NAOW do. You can't just spray it on and call it a day and expect it to work. You have to massage it in. My hair is so dark brown it's almost black and it works for me. You do have to find the one you like - but trial sizes if available.

I can't remember the last time I used a blow drier.

I also think I had wet hair from 8th grade until my 30s.

I look like a homeless person if I don't blow dry my hair.

If I blow dried mine, I was 3 inches taller.

And it frizzed.

If I didn't dry my hair it would still be wet when I got home from work.

 Yep. 

Like I said, wet from 8th grade til my 30s.

When it was below freezing, I'd use a diffuser to get neXT to the scalp drier but it was always damp.
