Homemade Dry Shampoo

This post will explain how you can make homemade dry shampoo for light or dark hair. It is all natural too! Store-bought dry shampoos can be really unhealthy and often contain tons of chemicals. Not to mention, they can be really expensive!

Here is a recipe for making your own all natural dry shampoo with ingredients that you can find around your kitchen. It lasts for a long time and works great!

For Light Colored Hair

Ingredients:

1. A container (I used these empty salt and pepper shakers which made it easy to shake onto my hair)
2. Equal parts cornstarch and baking soda
3. 5-10 drops of essential oils – I use rosemary or lavender because they are great for hair and scalp health!

Directions:

1. Mix the ingredients in a small bowl and transfer into your container.
2. Shake, brush or sprinkle your dry shampoo onto your scalp and brush through to ends.

For Dark Colored Hair

Ingredients:

1. A container
2. Equal parts cornstarch and unsweetened cocoa powder
3. 1 tbsp baking soda
4. 5-10 drops of essential oils (again, I like lavender and rosemary)

Directions:

1. Mix the ingredients in a small bowl and transfer into your container.
2. Shake, brush or sprinkle your dry shampoo onto your scalp and brush through to ends.
