I frequently rely on dry shampoos or other products to last me until my next hair wash because I fear the natural oils will be stripped away.

However, I was glad to discover Straand’s Crown Refresh Revitalizing Dry Shampoo Mist, £20, to solve my problem. An Australian-made haircare company claims that their products are “scrubs for your scalp.” When it should be given the same care as your body or face, the scalp is frequently pushed aside.

Powdery formulas in your hair can be a real problem, causing irritation, dry skin, clogged follicles, and occasionally even hair loss. So when I first learned about Straand’s scalp-friendly mist, I knew I had to try it out. I was pleasantly surprised by the results.

With a £224 savings, we tested three new £10 “Le Labo-inspired” fragrances from Aldi.

Customers’ “favorite shoes ever” are calling their Dr Martens launch leopard print mules.

The scalp-friendly formula in Straand’s Dry Shampoo (Straand)

Pros

  • leaves a dry, powdery residue that is not there.
  • Ideal for use after a workout
  • rather than drying out the hair and scalp
  • leaves hair looking refreshed

Cons

  • It needs to be completely misted and then blow dried before use, so it won’t be as quick to use as some dry shampoos.
  • Before blow-drying, leaves a strange texture on the hair.

Review of the Straand Crown Refresh Revitalizing Dry Shampoo Mist

I’ve been looking for a way to get my hair to hydrate more quickly than I do it, so I’ve been looking for a solution that doesn’t have to wash it constantly. Most other dry shampoos, according to my experience, left my scalp with an odd white cast or a dry feeling, but Straand’s didn’t.

You must completely saturate your hair and roots with Straand’s dry shampoo, which has a wet mist consistency. After that, you enter the room with a blow-dryer and your hair is immediately soft and shiny. I used it for the first time, and I was so pleased with the results because I didn’t anticipate my hair to appear nearly freshly washed, but the mist did just that.

You can zhuz through your hair a little bit, but I’ll say that it’s not as convenient as other dry shampoos, and you’re ready to go. A hair dryer and some extra time are required for this.

However, I’ve found that my work and gym bag are both very useful. I can mist, dry, and look as good as I did when I left the house if I ever need a little refreshment after a long day or sweaty workout at both my workplace and my gym.

K18’s new Airwash Dry Shampoo, £49, and Got2B’s more affordable getFRESH Dry Shampoo Mist, £5.50, are two other non-aerosol dry shampoos that look great.
