How Do I Use PSSST! Instant Dry Shampoo?
Like all beauty tools, technique is everything! Here's the "how-to" in 3 simple steps:
STEP 1: SPRAY. Shake the can vigorously and hold it 6" to 8" from your hair. Spray lightly and evenly onto your scalp and roots, using short bursts. Going around your head, lift two-inch sections of hair and spritz at the roots to make sure you've reached each area with product. Shake the can between sprays for best results.
STEP 2: MASSAGE. Work the product into your roots with your clean fingertips. Score body-building bonus points by flipping your head upside down while you massage the product through the lengths of your hair.
A Word of Advice
When used correctly, dry shampoo is a pretty fail-proof product, but watch out for these common mistakes:
- Spraying too close to your head will leave you with uneven product and potentially caked-on patches that will need more massage muscle.
- Heavy layers of dry shampoo will defeat the purpose and leave your hair looking dull and weighed down. You can always add more product if needed.
- Spraying dry shampoo on hair that's damp or wet (from water or from hairspray or other products) will form a gunky mess.
- Using dry shampoo as your only form of shampoo or relying on it for more than a few days between a proper, full-on suds and rinse shampoo causes product build-up that's bad for your hair in the long run. Your hair and scalp benefit from the clean slate that only regular shampoo provides.
