Dry Summer

“Dry shampoos are a go-to product backstage at runway shows and photoshoots”

There’s no hiding from the camera these days, and whether clients are heading to warmer climes this summer, packing up the camper van or heading to Glastonbury, they’ll still want their hair to look fresh and finished.

The latest generation of Dry Shampoo products not only cleanse the hair but care for the scalp without leaving any drying tell-tale powdery streaks.

As a bonus, these corn or rice starch formulations can be used during styling, both by professionals and clients, to ramp up the volume and add structure to fine or limp hair. They’re a goto product backstage at runway shows and photoshoots, and a good dry shampoo will be your secret weapon for flawless updos. Look out for travel sizes that you can retail; they’re great to pop in a carry-on case or gym bag.

So whilst dry shampoos aren’t designed to replace thorough cleansing with water-based products, when there’s no chance to style from scratch, these professional formulations will ensure your clients are Instaready all weekend long!

Olaplex No.4D Clean Volume Detox Dry Shampoo

This lightweight formula addresses scalp health thanks to detoxifying Rambutan Seed extract and Rice Starch which absorbs odourcausing oil and sweat. There’s no product build-up, powder residue or itchy scalp, and Olaplex’s patented bond-building technology mitigates any hair damage.
