Dry shampoo has been around for ages, just ask your grandma – but it’s poised for a comeback. While it’s been used behind the scenes for fashion shows and movies for years (many, many cans of Klorane Dry Shampoo were used to create Kirsten Dunst’s towering updos in Marie Antoinette) it’s finally making its way back to the mainstream as women are discovering the benefits of powdering between lathers. Just in time for the summer heat, which can leave hair feeling, well, a little greasier than usual.

Using a dry shampoo lets you space out your shampoos, which means less time spent styling your hair and less water used when you shower. As an added bonus it gives volume and texture to what would otherwise be greasy, matte hair.

It’s pretty simple to use, just spray or shake the dry shampoo onto the roots of your hair and let it absorb any excess oil for a few minutes. Then brush it out and rub your head with a towel to get any persistent powder out. This part is key, especially if you have darker hair, you don’t want to look like you got in a flour fight before you left your house. Voila, no fuss, no muss, your hair is refreshed! Dry shampoo is great for travel, to freshen up bangs in between washes, or just to amp up your hairstyle before a night on the town.
