I don't know if anyone else out there has the same issue i do, but i am sure someone probably does. My hair is very fine and very straight. When it is freshly shampooed and dried i have a very hard time getting it to hold any style, especially when i have my hair cut in a shorter style and try to acheive the "touseled" bed head type of looks which i love. I find that on the day after shampooing my hair, i can achieve much more textured, stlyed looks and they hold much better, but my hair is on the oilier side and i cn't stand my roots looking greasy, when the rest of my hair loks gorgeous. I have read many tips in fashion magazines about using a "dry shampoo" product to help eliminate this problem, while still maintaining the wonderufl managability of non-freshly washed hair. These products are like a powder, that one sprinkles in the hair, lets sit for a few minutes, then you brush through your hair to remove the residue. The powder essential absorbs excess oil from the scalp and often times freshens the smell of your hair, without stripping all the oils out of your hair that are what assist in managability. I was wondering, where can products like this be purchased? When i look up info on line, most of them refer me to european stores. I suppose i could order them online and have them shipped to me to try, but i would rather not pay all that extra money if i can find it somewhere locally. I have never seen them in any f the stores around here, would i maybe have more luck if i tried a beauty supply store or something like that? Has anyone out there heard of or tried these products? Any reccomendations or tips? In a few of the magazines the recommend using baby powder or corn starch if you don't have these products, which i have tried and they somewhat worked, but now that i have darker colored hair instead ofmy original blond, i find they affect the sheen and color of my hair, as not all the product comes out after brushing through. I have come across in my searches that these dry shampoos actually come specified to what hair color you have, so if you have darker hair, the powder is darker in color and won't leave white residue on your scalp, which would suit me better. Thanks for sharing any info or comments you might have!
