Equipment
Dry shampoo container
I actually use an old foundation container.
Ingredients
1
tablespoon
of cornstarch
½
teaspoon
of bentonite clay
for lighter hair or
½
teaspoon
of cocoa powder
for darker hair
Instructions
Measure out the cornstarch and add it to a shallow container with an airtight lid.
Next, choose between cocoa powder or clay, depending on your hair color, and stir in well.
Use an applicator brush to dot a small amount along the part line. Then, use a comb or your fingers to run it through your hair.
Notes
Perform a patch test before using this dry shampoo regularly on your hair.
This is not a replacement for regular shampoo.
Use 1-2 times per week.
