Apply Before Bed: Before you go to sleep, spray a few pumps of dry shampoo onto your roots and tousle through. This will allow the product to work overnight, absorbing excess oil and providing volume.

When you wake up, your hair will be revitalised and ready for styling.

Divide and Conquer: Divide your hair into sections and pump dry shampoo at the roots, focusing on the areas that tend to get greasiest. Spray a couple of inches from your roots, remembering to get right to the back and sides of your head as this will create a foundation for up top! Give the product a few minutes to absorb, then tousle through your roots using your fingertips.

Revive and Refresh: Throughout the festival, use dry shampoo each morning to refresh your hair. Apply it in the same manner as the previous day, focusing on the roots. This will eliminate oil, add volume, and keep your hair looking and smelling fresh.
