I have always had such thin, fine hair. And when you have fine, thin hair you can not. I repeat CAN NOT NOT wash your hair every day. It’s a greasy mess barely passable for the gym. I was mentioning it in passing to my stylist and she recommended TIGI’s Dry Shampoo Rockaholic. Well. That was WAY out of my new budget UNTIL Ulta ran a breast cancer awareness campaign and put their specially marked cans on sale for $6.99 last week AND put out a 20% coupon in the paper.
So this morning, I rolled out of bed just a few minutes before having to get to work and found that my hair was as usual…smashed in the back, sticking out at on the sides and starting to get a bit greasy in the front. I started spraying at the roots, concentrating at my hair line and then at the crown. I used my round brush to restyle as I would with my hair dryer and voila! My hair was suddenly passable! It even poofed at the crown like I like! This picture is about 10 minutes after rolling out of bed and no flat iron either!
Now, I can’t say it was just as good as the first day. The texture was much more coarse than normal and I had to tame a few stray pieces through the day. But FOR SURE hundreds of times better than having to do the whole thing over again. For days like today where my biggest outing was Walgreens for a good deal on cough drops and aspirin, it worked like a charm.
So. Have you ever tried a dry shampoo that you’d recommend?
VERY cool. I’ve been looking for a dry shampoo to review for Buy-Her. I will try this out, although I’m going to miss BCA month because I already have a post set to go this month. Oh well.

Let me know what you think!
Ha, I tried baby powder once as a dry shampoo. That was a mistake, I have much higher hopes for better dry shampoo after reading this though. But my hair can last more than a day if I don’t put too much product in on the first day.
Years and years ago I tried the baby powder thing. This is WAAYY better!
I know that must have been difficult to pay anything for hair products when a Drugstore Diva like you is used to getting it all for free. But, you found a great deal and it was TOTALLY worth it! I’d venture to say you could pay full price for it and not feel guilty. 😉

Yes, Richelle, it is usually SO hard to pay for any type of beauty item except my hair stuff. I think I’ve segmented my hair needs from couponing 🙂 However, I stuck to the budget on this one and am always happy to get a deal on any product!
Amazing! I’ve seen your hair in the am so I’m super impressed 🙂 You rock.
