Wella Professionals EIMI Dry Me Dry Shampoo

The first commercial dry shampoo came out in the 1940’s in New Jersey and targeted those women who needed help to whip up a style for “surprise dates” or while “sick in bed”, still having the look of great hair. Believe it or not, but before this very sexist product pitch of the 40's, as far back as the late 15^th century we know that other cultures were using clay ground into powder to ward off oily scalp and hair.

So let's get to it then:

DO’s – dry shampoos are great for that lived in 2^nd, 3^rd, 4^th…pushing it on 5^th,day hair. You MUST spray and BRUSH OUT the product with either a brush or your fingers for optimal result. 

DON’Ts – Don’t just spray and leave in the hair. That is what creates that dry, brittle chalky look that you see a lot of lately…. not nice!! Also by not brushing the product out you’re essentially creating a cocoon around the hair that makes further colouring, toning and highlighting very, very difficult. And can create unpredictable results. So a call out to our wonderful clients, don’t load up on dry shampoo before your colour service.

At Salon Blo we respect that no two dry shampoo's are alike. Therefore we have a couple of options for you to try:

 

Nioxin Instant Fullness – Offers the oil wicking capabilities of a dry shampoo with none of follicle clogging properties. It also has a wonderful menthol cooling feeling on the scalp.

 

Sebastian Dry Clean Only – More of a harder performing dry shampoo for those of you that produce more oil in your hair.

 

Wella Eimi Dry Me – a rice starch based product that doesn’t leave any white residue in dark hair and is easy to brush out. 

 

All these brands carry a travel size version for on the go "zhooshing".....you know what we mean.
