For this modern-day Marilyn style, Shelley Gregory @shelleygregoryhair uses Badlands. “I never knew a dry shampoo paste is what I’ve always been looking for,” she says. “It gives texture that is weightless.”
When artist Meg Stringham @stylingwithmeg wants to add texture and grip to hair, she reaches for Skyline. “It gives hair an instant refresh and makes it easier to style.”
Artist Hannah Menor @hannahdisconnected applies Badlands on damp hair and blow dries for incredible lift and control at the crown.
In the world of beauty, products come and go, but dry shampoo has certainly stuck its landing. Despite its claim to fame as the answer to day-three (or -four, -five) hair, dry shampoo has also proven its versatility.
R+Co is no stranger to the game. The brand has not one, but four different dry shampoos in its arsenal: Death Valley, Spiritualized, Skyline and Badlands. MODERN tasked style gurus Shelley Gregory, Meg Stringham and Hannah Menor to incorporate the four dry shampoos into their everyday lives at the salon.
“R+Co has changed the dry shampoo game,” Gregory says. “They have made a formula for every hair type and every hair situation.”
Of course, the most popular niche dry shampoo fits is to make styles last longer while also refreshing hair without the use of water. Skyline was designed to do just that. When sprayed at the root and massaged in, this power leaves hair feeling fresh. Its nonaerosol pump allows stylists to deliver the powder with precision.
“It doesn’t matter how dirty the hair is,” Gregory says. “Skyline will erase all of that and give extra volume in the process.”
Death Valley is one of the quickest ways to get volume and body into your client’s hair. It features rice protein to improve hair’s elasticity and vitamin E to strengthen and nourish the hair.
“Death Valley is a must-have for every client,” Gregory says. “I always keep it stocked in my kit and even in my personal travel bag.”
Using a micellar formula, Spiritualized transcends traditional dry shampoos to cleanse the scalp without a powdery residue. It also soothes itchy and dry scalps.
“I love using Spiritualized as a finishing product,” Menor says. “It’s great at the end of curling a client’s hair to give them more texture and a lived-in wave.”
Part dry shampoo, part styling paste, R+Co’s Badlands adds second-day texture while absorbing oil. Its matte finish and reworkable hold mean there’s no buildup.
“Badlands is necessary for a knockout blowout,” Menor says. “I apply the paste at the root in the crown area to give amazing volume and hold.”
Regardless of which dry shampoo the artists grabbed, one thing is apparent: R+Co has elevated the product category to be an experience. Visit randco.com/join.
