DIY: Make your own dry shampoo
Ladies, its time to chuck out that can of chemicals. And yes, I'm talking about the toxic dry shampoo that should not be going anywhere near your beauty cabinet, let alone hair.
You may not be aware but not too long ago in 2022 headlines came out around the dangers of using aerosol dry shampoos like Batiste after high levels of the carcinogen (cancer causing ingredient) Benzene were discovered in them.
The ingredients in these dry shampoos already scream “stay away!!” and the Benzene news was just the sickly icing on top of an already toxic cake.
Okay so you've chucked out that toxic dry shampoo and promised you'll never touch it again?
Okay good! ;-)
Now here is my DIY dry shampoo recipe which is the easiest thing you'll ever make. Not only that but it will save you money and of course, it's toxic free!
What you will need:
• 2 tbsp tapioca powder / arrowroot
• 1/4 tsp cacao powder (add as much as you like, more if your hair is darker)
Additional extras: add a drop or two of essential oils such as clary sage for the scalp or rose or lavender for a nice smell. But you really don’t need it as it doesn’t smell like anything.
Happy low-tox DIY ladies 🤍😘
