Dry Shampoo Your Way to Beachy Waves!

Shampooing every other day is surprisingly hard to do, especially if you have fine, limp hair like mine! This morning, in an effort to conquer my
fear of unwashed hair I passed on John Frieda in my shower,which
normally would have led to a morning hair meltdown. However, I picked
up a bottle of dry shampoo and a flat iron and decided to make it work.

I love dry shampoos because they double as texturizers and do a great job at holding curls. Here's a trick that I used this morning to get beachy
waves with dry shampoo and unwashed hair (right now I'm test driving Ojon Rub Out Dry Cleanser. It's working great and I've already gotten compliments!)

In the morning, apply dry shampoo to your roots. I prefer a spray since
it's easier to control application. Flip your hair over, giving your hair a good shake and flip back photo shoot style.

If you have dark hair, be sure to go with a dry shampoo closer to the color of your hair to avoid looking flaky. Next, grab a flat iron, and gather a section of hair. Clamp your iron at the top of your strands
closer to your roots and turn your hair through it, while pulling down to your ends. (think of same motion you make when curling a ribbon). Do a quick flip once your done and voila! You've got sexy beachy waves
using shampoo! The dry shampoo not only absorbs oils, it holds your style and acts as a great volumizer.
Let me know if it works for you!
