Do you use dry shampoo to save time? If so, do you have a favorite type?

There are just some days that we never have enough time. Thankfully, the invention of dry shampoo can save me a lot of time! It took a while, but I found a brand that works for me, do you have a favorite brand?

    I shampoo my hair about 3 times a week and use conditioner to rinse through the other days. I shower after working out so am always sweaty and I don't think dry shampoo would work for me because I wouldn't feel totally clean. I guess it could come in handy if I didn't work out and didn't want to wash or condition my hair, but I am honestly not sure how it works.

      I agree! I am so sweaty after working out that I feel like I have to shampoo or condition my hair in the shower. I don't think it would work well for me either.

        It definitely doesn't give you that super clean feeling of freshly washed hair, but it absorbs the grease at your roots to make you look cleaner than you are ;) A shower cap and dry shampoo keep me looking mostly presentable during those super busy weeks.

    I use it occasionally - I have a lot of hair so washing and styling it daily is time consuming. It definitely helps when I don't have time to do the whole blow dry routine...eliminates any extra shine/greasiness at the roots. I've tried several brands - so far my favorite has been Kevin Murphy Fresh Hair Dry Cleaning Spray.

    I use it and love it! My hair is thick and naturally curly and takes about an hour to blow dry straight. I try to get three days out of a blow dry and dry shampoo helps get me through day three and, I'll be honest, occasionally a day four.

    I love Living Proof's Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo! I actually use dry shampoo the night before I know I'm not going to wash my hair - I think it gives the product more time to absorb and works better than when I apply it in the morning. I also love to use it before an event to keep hair looking fresh all day. A must have product for me!

      Great suggestion! I haven't considered using it the night before, but I'm going to try it. I have dark hair, so it can look kinda dusty when i first use it. I bet this would help with that.

    I have always been intrigued by the concept of dry shampoo but have never tried it.

    I got a travel sized Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Dry Shampoo for camping, and found it works really well for my hair! I use it every once in awhile on mornings when I am in a rush. It's great for absorbing oil and adding back volume.
