Recently, American blogs have actively discussed replacing traditional dry shampoos with alternative products. Dry shampoos are a convenient way to quickly refresh your hair, especially when you don’t have time to thoroughly wash your hair. They make hair fresh, crumbly and beautiful, especially relevant in cases where the hair roots quickly become oily.
The innovative use of deodorants as dry shampoo has caught the attention of many. It turned out that aerosol deodorant sprays can successfully replace dry shampoos. Many users have noted that powder deodorants, although not as effective for their main purpose, do an excellent job of refreshing hair.
The benefit of using deodorant in this capacity is its ability to absorb excess oil from the hair, leaving it loose and looking fresh.
How to properly use deodorant as dry shampoo:
- Deodorant should be sprayed on the partings and roots of the hair, and if you have bangs, then on it as well, as this will help determine the freshness of the hair.
- Spray from a distance of at least 30 cm, so as not to overdo the amount and ensure even distribution.
- After spraying, wait a few minutes, then gently massage the hair roots with your fingers for better distribution of the product.
- Let your hair dry for another minute, after which you can comb it and evaluate the result.
After this procedure, the hair becomes soft and voluminous, and the oily sheen at the roots disappears. Using deodorant does not damage your hair or leave visible residue, as is the case with some dry shampoos.
Experiment with different deodorant brands to find the perfect one for your hair. If the effect is not satisfactory, you can always wash it off the next time you wash your hair.
I personally tried using several aerosol deodorants with a powdery effect and was pleasantly surprised by the result: they work no worse than expensive dry shampoos and are much cheaper.
