The process of finding a good dry shampoo might not seem like a super important one, but a dry shampoo that actually works WITH your hair to keep it looking clean and healthy can be the difference between a good hair day and an “I should have just stayed in bed” hair day. Check out these 10 dry shampoos that will have you questioning why it took you so long to buy a dry shampoo in the first place!
A big problem we’ve noticed with dry shampoo is that some can leave a residue or a white powdery layer on our hair, causing our hair to look even dirtier and matted than it did when we started. That doesn’t happen with Amika! This dry shampoo is formulated without talc or aluminum, eliminating the chances of being stuck with what looks like a layer of baby powder on our heads all day. Amika works with all hair types, and it is color and sulfate-free, which means it’s safe to use on color treated hair! Amika is produced using a natural carb called rice starch, which absorbs all the access oils from our hair without stripping away all the good stuff we want to keep. Another perk of Amika? It helps to combat the flatness and limp quality of dirty hair, so even if you’ve skipped a couple washes you can still achieve that playful bounce and volume we all love so much!
Wanna know a dirty secret? Sometimes we just don’t feel like washing our hair. And that’s okay! Bed Head Rockaholic Dry Shampoo has got you covered.

Looking to achieve a perfect hair day but don’t have the time to shower, blow dry and style your hair? Now, you don’t have to! If you’re a busy gal and you’re always on the go, you don’t always have the time (or quite honestly the patience) to pour into styling your hair every day; but that shouldn’t mean that you have to compromise having a great hair day. Living Proof’s Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo is made with ingredients designed to mimic the process of actually shampooing your hair, which means your hair will look and feel like you just washed it without having to actually go through the process of washing it. This product works well on all hair types, and it actually works to eliminate sweat and odor from your hair (in addition to any excess oil), making it the perfect after-gym pick-me-up. Just spray at your roots, let it sit for 30 seconds, and massage with your fingers. Brush through all the way to the tips of your hair, and you’re ready to go with a refreshed ‘do that will last all day!
