Another day, another TikTok trend. This time, it’s all about dry shampoo because apparently, most of us have been using it wrong. Well, at least I have, as I discovered while writing this article.

In the past, I would spritz some dry shampoo into my roots, give it a quick rub and off I went. Except, I was often left with white patches in my hair – which my colleagues have had to discreetly point out to me on more than one occasion. I also used to find that sometimes the ‘fresh’ effect wouldn’t really last that long and my greasy roots would reappear come 4pm.

According to TikTok user Cora (@corascamera), there’s a slightly different method which is a lot more effective.
