How to Make Homemade Dry Shampoo Spray?

We all heard of dry shampoo sprays. Sometimes, dry shampoo can save your life. Especially, if you don’t have time to wash your hair but your looks like a mess. As always, I searched for natural ways of making dry shampoo at home. And I found this amazing homemade dry shampoo spray recipe.

All the ingredients are easy to obtain, and the preparation only takes 1 minute. Trust me. You will feel so much better after using this DIY homemade dry shampoo spray.

Even though commercial brands offer dry shampoo products on the market, I don’t fully trust them. And we all know the reason. Those commercial dry shampoo products often contain highly chemical products that could be extremely harmful to your hair. And what is more, you are spending hundreds of dollars to repair the damage of commercial dry shampoo products.

I want to stop this horrible cycle. So, this way to do that is to make my own homemade dry shampoo spray. After some research, I found isopropyl alcohol.

This ingredient is ideal to eliminate the oily look of the hair. Especially if you have extremely oily hair. My hair is mostly dry, but it could get extremely oily after spending a day in the city. Also, I sometimes do not have time to wash my hair between two events. So, this homemade dry shampoo spray is saving my life at those times.

Homemade Dry Shampoo Spray Ingredients:

  • 3 table spoon of high proof alcohol (the level of alcohol should at least be 50%)*
  • 1 table spoon of filtered or distilled water**
  • ½ tea spoon of calcium carbonate
  • 10 drops of essential lavender oil – you can also select another essential oil.
*If you are using alcohol with higher percentage like 75% or 99% isopropyl, you may consider changing the ratio in the mixture. Probably 2 table spoons of alcohol will be enough for your homemade dry shampoo spray recipe. Since I have used 75% isopropyl alcohol, I still used 3 table spoons recipe.
**If you are using higher percentage of alcohol, you can increase water ratio to 2 table spoons.
