Step 1: Find the Best Dry Shampoo Don't sabotage yourself before you start by choosing the wrong dry shampoo. "Finding what works best for your hair type will ensure you won't be left with a messy residue or unsightly white color on your roots," explains Markham.
Your best bet: Choose an aerosol dry shampoo (the particles are very fine, and work quickly) that smells fresh to neutralize the telltale odor of unwashed hair.
If you color your hair, use a dry shampoo specifically formulated for color-treated hair, like ColorProof DrySpell Color Protect Dry Shampoo, $26, which will make hair more vibrant and add heat protection.
If your hair is dark, look for a formula that won't leave a residue, such as a tapioca-based dry shampoo, says celebrity stylist (and Beachwaver-creator) Sarah Potempa. (She recommends Aussie 7in1 Dry Shampoo). You can also choose one that's tinted to match your hair color.
