Product Praise: Drybar Detox Whipped Dry Shampoo

Product Praise: Drybar Detox Whipped Dry Shampoo

It's cold and dry out.  My hair is in crisis.   As much as I want to wash it every day, I know that will only make the situation worse because washing it is so drying.  If you're washing your hair every day, it's time to stop that craziness.  Think of your hair like your favorite t-shirt.  If you washed your favorite t-shirt every day, what would happen?  It would fade, lose its shape, look meh.  Shampoo is basically laundry detergent for your hair.  It strips it down and breaks down the structure.  If you HAVE to wash your hair daily or most days, you can try this trick: just wash with water (it gets rid of 80% of the dirt and oil) and add conditioner to your ends. No shampoo. The rule: shampoo max 3x/week.  

The main reason we wash our hair is to refresh our roots, so I'm a huge fan of dry shampoo.  Use them all.  Love most.  So you can imagine the little dance I did when I was at Drybar recently and saw they have a new WHIPPED dry shampoo.  I love this because it's ultralight and doesn't contain powder (which can sometimes show on my dark brown hair).  If you haven't tried dry shampoo or are ready to try a new one, this one is different than the others and so far, I love it.  

  Enjoy!
