When I had our first baby, the newborn phase ROCKED my world. I had no idea how a tiny six pound baby who slept most of the day had the ability to turn me into someone who literally could not complete one single task all day long!
Amongst the sleep deprivation, changing dirty diapers every 10 minutes, crazy hormones that had me crying multiple times a day, wearing a giant diaper myself bleeding from places I didn’t know possible, and my boobs leaking milk all over, I learned one thing. There’s RARELY time to take a proper shower, let alone blow dry and fix my hair every day!
The days of spending an hour to get ready in the morning were OVER. I had to become EFFICIENT.
Insert DRY SHAMPOO which literally was the ONLY thing that made me feel like I had the ability to get out of my house and act like a member of society. ?
I’ve always had oily hair. I couldn’t go a day or two between washes.
I experimented with various dry shampoos over the years, but I thought I’d take it to the masses and ask ALL my momma friends over on Instagram! I did an Instagram Story asking for recommendations and literally had DOZENS of recommendations that came in!
Out of all of them, there were 12 dry shampoos that led the charge, and since I KNOW I’m not the only momma trying to go out in public by extending the days between washes, here you go! 🙂 I linked them all so you can check out details and pricing for each!!!
These are the top 12, in order of most votes to least votes!
