8 Drugstore Dry Shampoos That Actually Work

Courtesy

I don't remember what life was like before dry shampoo because I've repressed those days. When I'm too lazy to wash my hair, my bangs are greasy, or my hair's flat from sleeping on it, dry shampoo is my solution. It's one of the few hair products I use every morning.

And that's the problem. While spritzing my roots with dry shampoo instantly solves my current hair struggles, using it as much as I do means I go through a can faster than a new Kardashian makeup product sells out. Luckily, there are many affordable drugstore options that cleanse hair of dirt and oil without leaving the powdery residue that's notorious with dry shampoos.

Keep scrolling for the eight best dry shampoos (all under $15) that you can find at the drugstore.
