How many times do you happen to be late for an appointment or to go to work and realize that your hair needs an imminent wash? If you don't have time for a complete shampoo, discover here our precious tips to have a fresh and clean hair without having to use water, shampoo, conditioner and hairdryer.

Discover all the peculiarities of dry shampoos and the benefits of this practical product in your daily beauty routine:

Regardless of the lack of time, washing your hair every day is not a good habit, because the protective layer of the scalp is very sensitive, it is damaged and consequently the hair itself is also affected, weakening and thinning.

However, if you see that the style is no longer fresh or that the roots are fatter, you can opt for one of these methods that will allow you to have clean hair without having to resort to traditional washing!

Before starting any dry hair treatment, remember that it is absolutely necessary to comb and brush it as best as possible to completely eliminate knots.

1. With talcum powder degrease the hair and refresh the style!

The most common method for dry washing hair is simple talcum powder which, in addition to absorbing excess sebum, also leaves a good scent on the entire hair.
Put yourself upside down in the tub or on the sink, sprinkle a generous amount of talcum powder and massage thoroughly, insisting on the roots, which are usually the dirtiest ones. Then scrub with a dry towel or cloth to remove excess dust and give it a quick cold blow-dry to remove any residue.

The extra tip: If you are blackberry or brunette you can also add cocoa to the talcum powder, which will make the powder darker and it will be less noticeable in your hair. If you are blonde, you can add turmeric or saffron for the same reason.

NB. However, this remedy only lasts one day, after which you will have to necessarily use the shampoo since the talcum powder makes the hair slightly opaque.

For a longer-term result, we recommend Corinne Taylor's 100% natural and organic powder shampoo which, in addition to absorbing excess sebum from the scalp, is able to give volume and clean the hair well without drying it too much. - available on Amazon for about 20 €.

Ghassoul is suitable for all types of hair, even oily ones, because, being an effective sebum-regulator, it leaves them very soft and clean without drying the ends. You can buy the 400g pack on Amazon for less than € 10.

4. Bicarbonate: ideal for cleaning oily hair without water

Perfect especially for greasy hair, baking soda is also an excellent do-it-yourself remedy for hair and can be a valuable ally for clean hair without the need to resort to shampoo and water.

Put a small amount on the palm of your hand and rub it into your hair so that the product adheres well. To remove residue, use a dense bristle brush.
