Welcome to another edition of my Love of the Week. This is where I talk about something I absolutely love. Today’s love… dry shampoo!

My two favorite brands

I don’t know what I would do without this product. It has to be one of the greatest inventions! I have naturally curly hair that more times than not, I straighten. I also have very thick hair. For me to have to wash, blow it out and then straighten, it can take more than an hour. That is a lot of time and time is never on my side. LOL! However, this could pose a problem for someone who works out six days a week, with at least 4-5 of those days consisting of running. As one can imagine, the sweat does nothing for my hair. Sweat leaves one with greasy, limp hair. So not the case with Not Your Mother’s dry shampoo and Batiste dry shampoo. Each one of these products leaves my hair feeling soft, smelling good, and full of body. I have been asked if there is any build-up of the product in my hair. My honest answer, eventually. If I use it so many days in a row, by the 5th day or so, I feel some. However, by then, I am rewashing my hair. Though I do have a confession, the picture below was taken this morning. This is day 7. I have been putting off washing my hair until after my long run today. I always wash my hair after a ten miler or more. I sweat too much!

Day 7 of dry shampoo

As you can see, my hair is not greasy and is still full of body. It doesn’t feel too bad, either. So why don’t you give it a try? I would love to know your thoughts.

Happy Friday!

    I have never tried dry shampoo. My hair is thin and fine. I just never thought it would work for me and it takes no time at all to wash and dry. HAHA! There are times though, that I don’t want to be bothered, so I might give it a try after all.

      Laura: You might find it makes your hair a bit fuller.

    I haven’t had good luck with dry shampoo, but maybe I haven’t tried the right one.

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      I had to find the right one. There have been a couple that I have not cared for.

    I’m a big fan of dry shampoo. I can get 1-2 days extra before having to wash! I’ve used both of these before and liked them too but they do make my scalp itch. I have a new one i need to try sitting here on my desk…

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      Hummm.. interesting. I am curious how the new one will work for you. Please let me know.

    I’ve tried the Batiste before! I haven’t tried the other one, but Not Your Mother’s is a favorite brand of mine, so maybe I’ll try it next!

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      Let me know what you think!

    My girls love dry shampoo. I wonder how it would work on my oily hair?

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      It would help. That is is the point of it. It dries up the oil. Give it a try.

    You always recommend the coolest products. Will have to have my daughter try this with her uncontrollable hair.

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      Thank you, Pauline! I only highlight those that I love. I love getting recommendations from others on products, so why not pay it forward.

    Dry shampoo has not been my friend…maybe this brand will change my mind 🙂

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      I had to go through a few brands before I found ones that I like.

  10. Amy Irvin | 20th Aug 19

    I have tried dry shampoo before, but not in a long time. May be something I purchase again once I start straightening my hair again. Thanks!

  11. Alexandra | 20th Aug 19

    It’s been many years since I tried a dry shampoo. I’ll have to check out this brand!

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      Let me know what you think!

  14. Catherine | 21st Aug 19

    Batiste is my baby!! I am like you.. I have very long, thick hair. It takes too long to wash, dry, and style it everyday so I often turn to dry shampoo. It took me forever to find the perfect product. Batiste is my go to!!

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      Yay! Isn’t it awesome when we find something that we love and works!

  15. Maria | 21st Aug 19

    This is a great product for people that struggle with greasy hair!

    • Heather | 9th Sep 19

      Yes it is! Do you use it?

  16. T.M. | 28th Aug 19

    I haven’t used dry shampoo to date. I’ll have to keep it in mind.

  17. Heather | 9th Sep 19

    If you try it, let me know what you think.
