8 New and Innovative Dry Shampoos to Add to Your Hair Care Routine

Fresh hair incoming.

Look, washing your hair can be a total drag. We understand. We’ve been saved by absorbent powders and refreshing sprays in between washes and after intense workouts many times — but the very best dry shampoos on the market go beyond simply cleansing the scalp.

Haircare brands like K18, The Rootist and Dae are offering revolutionary dry cleansers that promote a healthy scalp, regulate oil production, neutralize odours, add volume and provide days of freshness — so you’re spending less time washing your hair in the shower, less often.

To shop eight new and cool dry shampoo products your hair will love, scroll on.

Crown Affair The Refillable Dry Shampoo

Crown Affair hit Canadian shelves earlier this year and along with it came a silky dry shampoo powder that anyone with an oilier scalp should consider adding to their carts. While its persimmon-derived tannic acid ingredient deodorizes the hair and Tsubaki seed oil prevents scalp dryness and irritation, tapioca starch works to absorb unwanted oils.

If that weren’t enough, this potted powder is refillable (!!!) and comes with an adorable kabuki brush to allow for targeted application on hair of all types and textures. This includes folks with colour-treated hair!

K18 Biomimetic Hairscience AirWash Dry Shampoo

Formulated with patented odorBind biotechnology, K18’s AirWash Dry Shampoo is a game-changer. This smart-release hair tech detects, traps and eliminates odour-causing molecules at the source, leaving hair feeling — and smelling — fresh for up to three days.

In addition, translucent micro-beads soak up scalp oils without stripping the hair or leaving behind a dreaded white cast. With continuous use, its biotech-derived Meditteranean microalgae ingredient balances sebum and keeps excess oil production in check for a healthier scalp.

Batiste Sweat Activated Dry Shampoo

If you’re a fitness buff, Batiste’s Sweat Activated Dry Shampoo deserves a permanent place in your gym bag. Once you begin to sweat, fragrance capsules within this shampoo’s formula burst and release a blast of green apple, pineapple and pear-scented freshness that lasts up to 24 hours.

Ahead of your workouts, give this innovative shampoo a shake and spray it onto your roots in sections from about 12 inches away. Then, massage the product into your scalp with your fingertips and voila — your hair will be ready for whatever your personal trainer throws at you.

The Rootist Refillable Dry Shampoo Powder

Need to touch your hair up on the go? The Rootist’s talc-free Refillable Dry Shampoo Powder has got you and your roots covered. This oil- and sweat-absorbing powder is infused with a proprietary Rootbiomic Ferment technology which promotes a more hydrated scalp and healthier hair overall, as well as anchored roots.

With a built-in brush, you can toss this shampoo into your purse and reapply as needed, no matter where you are. Plus, its vanishing tint makes it suitable for those with darker hair. No powdery scalps in sight!

And, like all of our favourite Olaplex products, this one is formulated with the brand’s patented Bond Building Technology, too. Suitable for all hair types and textures, this dry shampoo is sure to come in handy between wash days.
