How To Use Dry Shampoo

written by

There are many days when you will find me with a huge messy bun on top of my head. I will get a ton of compliments on my top-knot, when in reality I am on my last and final days before I have to wash my hair. I will typically laugh and let them know I haven’t washed my hair in 2 weeks. Then they just laugh and think I am kidding. Which I am totally not kidding. LOL If I can stretch washing my hair up to 2 weeks, I am a happy camper. I know, I know… that sounds crazy, but it can take me up to 30 minutes just to blow dry my hair! That doesn’t include washing time. It is such a process for me, I will stretch the time between washings as long as I can.

Dry shampoo can be a time saver and is so convenient. Less shampoo means healthier hair! And who doesn’t want healthier it? It will help keep your hair healthy by cutting the times you have to wash your hair. Which means less stripping of the oils and exposure to heat from your blow drying and styling your hair. Dry shampoo can also regulate oil production and to boot it adds volume and texture to styling your hair.

So I have written out the steps to help you apply the Dry Shampoo. Hopefully it will help eliminate any mistakes like I have made in the past!

How To Use Dry Shampoo

Mandy Cox is Sharing How To Use Dry Shampoo

Step: 1 Spray about 6 inches from root.

To start, spray the dry shampoo approximately 6 inches from the root. You only need to concentrate on the front sections of your hair. Or where you feel your hair is the oiliest. Divide your hair into a couple sections and then spray.

Diffuse it with your blow dryer or massage your scalp with your fingers.

Step 2: Diffuse it with your blowdryer or massage your scalp with your fingers.

Once you have sprayed the dry shampoo into your divided sections, wait a few minutes letting the shampoo dry and settle into your scalp. You will want to use your diffuser on your blowdryer or you can just simply massage your scalp with your fingertips. This will help with absorbing all of the excess oil on your scalp, especially if you feel you have greasy roots.

Brush your Hair and Style

Step 3: Brush your Hair and Style

Once you feel the shampoo is dry and evenly distributed, you will want to brush your hair out. Then proceed to style your hair however you wish.

Use dry shampoo everyday or every other day when you don’t wash your hair. I would use it in the morning before you begin to style your hair. The dry shampoo soaks up excess oil and gives you volume.

LIVING PROOF PERFECT DRY SHAMPOO

I went to a “Favorite’s Party” the other night. So first, what is a “Favorite’s Party?” We each had to bring one of our tried and true favorites to share with the group. We would explain our favorite item and why it was our tried and true. When then exchanged each of our items. One of the girls at the party brought Living Proof’s Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo . She testified how she had tried so many brands of dry shampoo and this one was her absolute go-to favorite. It just solidified what I already knew, it is one of the best dry shampoos. This one was hers (and mine) all time obsession.

There are so many dry shampoos to try! So which one is best? I have tried a few and researched reviews. I have listed the ones I believe are the top 5. Between me quizzing my hairdresser, my friends, and researching reviews.

Our time in Uganda with @kids_lacrosse_africa and Our time in Uganda with @kids_lacrosse_africa and @signaturelacrosse was nothing short of divine. We came to give, but we received so much more. New friendships, deep joy, and a lasting impact on our hearts. God was present in every moment. Watching our kids serve, love, and build friendships across cultures was a glimpse of heaven on earth. We loved moment, every smile, and every connection. 🌍🙌 🇺🇬

Today, we celebrate this girl turning FOURTEEN. I Today, we celebrate this girl turning FOURTEEN. I wrote most of this when she turned 10. I have changed a few things. And we are still so proud of whose she’s becoming with each passing day. 
.
I don’t think I will ever be able to do her justice by my words on this platform. I always say I didn’t realize how much I needed her till I had her and that statement becomes more true every day. 
.
She is funny. Not the telling jokes funny and trying really hard to be funny. The kind where you really have to listen to her and you don’t remember what she even said a day later, but you remember her making you belly laugh and crying funny. 
.
She is kind. At school they had to go around and say what they admire in their classmates and one of them said Audrey is kind, even when someone isn’t kind to her. OH MY HEART! I cried. I still cry thinking about this. As a parent, you try to teach your kiddos this, you know “when you can be anything in the world, be kind.” But honestly that is HARD. Our flesh wants to do the opposite and its always easier to say these cliche statements and way harder to act them out. And to hear that Audrey practices this makes my heart explode! I am still hearing stories of her putting this into practice. 
.
She is thoughtful. At Christmas, she made a list and bought for each family member with her own money. Without giving it a second thought. And she made sure the gifts were exactly what they wanted. she still does this year after year. 
.
The best sister. We tell Brydon everyday he is so lucky. From sitting at lacrosse tournaments and never complaining to looking at me and advocating for him to switch school because she knew what Brydon needed even if it meant she was giving up her favorite time of the day, B driving her to school. 
.
And today, this amazing human turns 14. Still trying to figure out how to slow time down. But for now, Kris and I are cherishing every minute God has given us with her.
“God is love” Merry Christmas from our family “God is love” Merry Christmas from our family to yours!♥️🎄♥️ 1 John 4: 13-18

From sea to the blue waters of Nassau, day 3 and 4 From sea to the blue waters of Nassau, day 3 and 4 aboard Celebrity Silhouette did not disappoint. Relaxing poolside to relaxing seaside at Baha Mar, with amazing food (lots and lots of ice cream) and more entertainment than we knew what to do with, we had the best getaway on our short Caribbean cruise. We came back relaxed and recharged. @celebritycruises #CelebrityPartner #ad
