According to celebrity hairstylist Mika Fowler, the day after your last shampoo is actually your best hair day. Fake that look with Bumble and Bumble Pret-a-Powder, $27, a hardworking volumizing dry shampoo hybrid.
You sprinkle it over your hair, and then rub it in like you're using a traditional shampoo (thus eliminating the possibility of noticeable powder specks). Unlike the other texture powders, it won't make your hair sticky (I could run my fingers from roots to ends without them getting stuck). Plus, it soaks up oil just as well as your favorite dry shampoo.

If you're the kind of person who can't stand going a day without washing, Pravana Nevo Lived-In Powder Potion, $20, will help you fake the day-after look.
One word of warning: Do not apply this product directly to your hair. Sprinkle it onto your hands and rub them together until it morphs into a slightly tacky pomade. Rub this completely biodegradeable, vegan and environmentally friendly styling product into your roots for volume, or use a tiny bit on your ends to get a separated, piece-y look.
