For anyone stretching the time between washes, and especially for dark hair, where many dry shampoos leave a grey or white cast. It is also a good option for people who are sensitive to scent or prefer unscented products. It suits all hair types and is a simple at-home product.

The usual trade-off with dry shampoo is a white cast or a strong scent. Redken made Invisible Dry Shampoo to avoid both: it absorbs excess oil without leaving visible residue, and it contains no fragrance at all. That makes it the Redken choice for dark hair and for anyone who wants a clean refresh without perfume.

1. Shake the can well.
2. Hold it about 10 inches (25 cm) from the head and spray onto the roots.
3. Massage into the scalp or brush through to spread the product evenly.

Pros

• Leaves no visible residue, so it works on dark hair
• Completely fragrance-free
• Talc-, silicone- and sulfate-free
• Refreshes oily roots in seconds without water

Cons

• Aerosol with an alcohol base, which can feel drying on a dry scalp with heavy use
• Does not add the grit or volume of a texturizing dry shampoo
• Builds up if used for many days in a row; still needs a proper wash
