11 of the Best Drugstore Dry Shampoos for Every Hair Type

Batiste is one of the original dry shampoo companies, and this product is still a fan favorite today. The powdery formula may look like it leaves behind a residue, but once you brush it through, it will be undetectable, and your tresses will be totally degreased. It also delivers loads of volume that fake that just-done blowout vibe, revitalizing texture. For really dark hair, try the Divine Dark version—it’s a Byrdie-editor favorite.

Garnier’s dry shampoo gives your hair the most pleasant pick-me-up there is; with citrus extract and a silicon-free formula, this will leave your hair smelling amazing and oil-free throughout the rest of the day without it feeling weighed down or dry. Using it between washes will remove dirt and oil, all while keeping hair natural, soft, and weightless. 

Oil can weigh hair down throughout the day—especially finer hair that collects oil faster. To get the volume back in and keep your hair fresh between washes, Nexxus’s formula absorbs the oil, adds volume, and can extend the life of any hairstyle. It also kills sweat and odor, so you might want to stash this one in your gym bag.

The keratin and B12 in Tresemmé’s formula help to refresh and revive damaged hair the second it makes contact. It removes excess oils that may be slowing down the recovery process and has a weightless, invisible formula for easy use.

Coloring your hair is a great way to change up your look or express your personal style, but it’s also a great way to damage your hair and leave it dull and dry. This formula is infused with keratin, which works to revive damaged hair and keep it looking as fresh as the day it was first colored.

For fine hair that shows oil easily, this is what you need. It soaks up grease quickly, leaving behind a slightly matte—but not chalky—finish. The jury’s out on the scent (some people love it, some people think it’s too much), but in terms of extending hairstyles for fine hair, it’s a winner.

Klorane’s dry shampoo has been a cult favorite for years. Don’t be fooled by the super-fine texture of this spray; it works in heavy-duty times of need, which is why it’s great for particularly oily or very thick hair. Post-Klorane, hair looks and feels clean sans ashy residue. It’s also great for extending the life of a blowout, no matter what your hair texture is.

This formula is powdery, but it won’t leave your hair dull with that dry-shampoo residue. It’s not sticky, but it’s not as light as some of the others on this list, which is why it’s our pick for thick, textured hair. It’s also the smart choice for girls with thick curls and waves because unlike a lot of dry shampoos that promise to add volume, this one won’t—just refreshed tresses. 

This beloved dry shampoo from Dove has garnered legions of fans for its simple scent and refreshing powers. Just a few sprays soak up the oil, leaving hair looking and smelling fresh. The formula is designed to pump up the volume, leaving locks with loads of volume and body.

Charcoal is a star beauty ingredient for its ability to detox and remove impurities, making it the perfect hero ingredient for dry shampoo. This one also contains ultra-fine rice starch to sop up dirt, oil, sweat, and odor, making greasy locks a thing of the past. The formula has a botanical citrus scent that you’ll want to keep getting a whiff of.
