Dry Shampoo
While I was in California last week, my sister flew out from New York City at the same time. She’s a whole ten years younger than me and I learn something new from her every time I see her. She was talking about dry shampoo and how high her hair gets when she uses it. Dry shampoo? Really? She said I could get it at a beauty supply store for sure. The timing was great because I visited my sister-in-law the next day. She works at a wholesale beauty supply store and gets a discount so she totally hooked me up.
It’s a little can and went for about ten bucks in the wholesale store, so probably costs twice as much retail. A little can with giant letters big sexy hair. That’s a brand name, not necessarily my objective. I just wanted to see if it worked… you know, for when you’re without water and need to look presentable?
Here are the before and after pictures taken by my lovely assistant and husband.
I brushed my hair both times, so you can see an improvement in the after pictures. I think I would rather just wash my hair, but nice to have an alternative when you push the snooze button one too many times before you realize you have an appointment.
It felt like hair spray… you spray it on like hair spray and it smells pretty good, but makes you cough if you stay in the hair spray cloud. It felt like I had just doused my head in Aqua Net. So I teased it a little and here are my wannabe rock star pictures.
I want to test this product more fully in the humid South Texas air. Because the rock star pics are pretty high hair for me. I guess I could spray some more on tomorrow and continue with this science experiment. Who knows? Maybe 80′s hair will come back in style.
