our 3 favourite hacks to perk up strands between washes!
perk #1: hold off using dry shampoo until day 2
If you’re wanting to enjoy a break from your long hair wash day routine, it’s a must to hold off on the dry shampoo on your second day hair. Unless you are planning frequent hair washes, you need to choose carefully when to reach for your perk up.
A build-up of product can cause an irritated scalp and limp hair, especially when your scalp hasn’t produced enough oils yet. We want you to enjoy your healthiest hair yet!
perk #2: eliminate unpleasant smelling strands
Often a long night at a friend’s barbeque, a night in a smokey bar, or even your weekly gym class can be just enough to give you a premature hair wash day that throws off your whole schedule.
Perk up plus will be your bestie on days you need to refresh and restore your strands back to our heavenly signature scent of warm vanilla, spicy sweet clover, and fresh citrus.
perk #3: boost volume and texture
One of the biggest giveaways of dirty hair is it’s limp, flat texture that makes you feel just the same. Dry shampoo helps soak up some of that excess oil and helps reset your strands to look and feel much thicker and fuller.
How to use: Simply spray perk up plus over your dry roots, complete styling up your favourite hairdo, then go in with another dose of perk up all over the head. Roughly massage to invigorate your strands and give you that added oomph!
PSA: Say goodbye to white cast as this dry shampoo is totally invisible, and yes.. even on dark hair.
