Dry Shampoo for Dark Hair

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot or corn starch
  • 5 drops of essential oils (optional)
  • an old makeup brush to apply (optional)

  • Directions:

    1) Mix the cocoa powder, arrowroot/cornstarch and essential oils (if using).
    2) Store in a small jar or old powder container and apply with the make-up brush.
    3) Comb through hair and style as usual.

    Note: This variation is for dark hair. I would suggest Cinamon for lighter and just Arrowroot/Corn starch for blonde or other light shades. There is also a recipe that is for spray type shampoo, which uses water and an alcohol base then store in a spray bottle.
