How do you get Kate Moss hair: dry looking, bit of volume, falls and moves just so? The answer is really very simple, use dry shampoo.
While dry shampoo has been on the market for some time, to my knowledge it’s popularity still ebbs and flows - stalling when trends dictate freshly washed has no substitute and peaking when teens and designers alike raise hell, hemlines and the height of a backcombed crown. Nevertheless, I believe it’s an around-the-clock must-have bathroom staple. Seriously, how can one deny its ease, convenience and versatility?
Dry shampoo not only swiftly freshens-up a manky, stanky, otherwise unwashed mop sans shower time (simply spray at the roots and brush through. It’s perfect for fine hair or fringes that tend to become greasy more readily. Try Klorane Dry Shampoo or basic Baby Powder). Or pry lank-making moisture from the roots with such proficiency that it provides the kind of lift a palmful of mousse would be proud of (spray a generous amount of dry shampoo at the roots, staying well away from the hairline, before pinning hair into place). But it will also dull unwanted sheen (you may have noticed Brigitte Bardot’s hair was never Garnier glossy, but rather more straw-like. Therefore dry shampoo is especially useful when recreating this coveted look). As well as help conceal dark roots or mismatched hair wefts, even colour hair, albeit temporarily (choose a tinted dry shampoo such as Bumble and Bumble’s Hair Powder, dust the product throughout the hair, then disperse it with the help a blow dryer on gentle heat).
Not convinced? I urge you to give it a try; your hair will look all the more ‘Moss-like for it, I promise you. Besides, it’s million other uses make it cost-effective and unlikely to ever go stale on your bathroom shelf.
