Battle of the Budget Dry Shampoos

Morning!

Dry shampoo is something that i can't live without, it is such an easy way to make sure your hair looks great, even if you are running on no sleep and haven't managed a proper shower in days (mums with littlies will know what i'm talking about).  It's the perfect way to keep your hair fresh between washes, too.

There are plenty of brands on the market, but most are quite expensive, and they all do the same thing.  There are a couple of gems, though, that aren't going to break the bank.

These are both for dark hair, they also come in normal and blonde formulations

Girlz Only is available at Target for measly $2 a can, Polished London is slightly more expensive at $4.95 and is available at Priceline.

They both do a good job, and smell great.  If i had to pick a favourite it would have to be the Polished London, it smells better and does a slightly better job.  The Girlz Only is slightly chalky, which is easily fixed with a light application of serum or oil to give your hair back it's shine.  The Polished London doesn't dull your hair, but it does tend to stay wet for longer, which can make it hard to style your hair. 

Girlz Only and Polished London, you can see how chalky the GO can be

For $2 you can't go wrong with the Girlz Only, it is cheap and cheerful, and when you are at home with everything at hand it is easy to counter the chalky factor.  However the Polished London is perfect for on the go and travelling, 1 product is all that is needed for perfect hair.  Either way you can't beat the price!
