Easiest Dry Shampoo… Ever

Easiest Dry Shampoo Ever| girl about columbus

Because it’s the weekend… and I felt like posting something fun/useful… I thought I’d share a secret with you all:

You don’t need to buy an expensive dry shampoo. Seriously.

Save some $$$ and just pull the cornstarch and cocoa powder outta the cupboard and you’ve got yourself a new dry shampoo/texturizer/volumizer. Pretty simple: Blondes use cornstarch. Brunettes use 2 tbsp. of cornstarch + 1/3 cup of cocoa powder. Redheads use 2 tbsp. of cornstarch + 2 tbsp. of cinnamon. That’s all.

p.s. Someone told me once to use baby powder… no, thanks. Cornstarch is 10x better 🙂

    I never thought of using cornstarch. Now if only my hair could decide if it’s blonde or brown….

XOXO 💋 // What's a new year's resolution you're XOXO 💋 // What's a new year's resolution you're excited about this year? The start of the year is a great time to make resolutions, but one that's often overlooked is resolving to start saving for your child's higher education. 💕 Ohio's 529 plans can be used at any higher education institution - from two-year to four-year, from trade to vocational schools. And contributions can start as low as $25! 👏🏻 So even if you don't have a clue what your kiddo wants to do when they graduate high school, saving now for their future will help get them here. Want to learn more? Click the link in my bio for more information ✨ Who here has started saving for their child’s education?
