Dry hairspray

Today, among women leading an active lifestyle in conditions of constant time pressure, dry hairspray is very popular.

Dry hairspray is a natural product that has a special composition that differs from the traditional one. If an ordinary liquid product contains harmful freons, then dry varnishes do not contain them at all. Alcohol in them is replaced by mild organic solvents. This is why dry fixatives are less aggressive than their liquid counterparts.

The dry fixative is distinguished by its original component composition, including:

• amino acids that fight the problems of brittle hair;
• plasticizers that give the strands elasticity, flexibility and elasticity;
• polymers that are distributed without gluing along the strands and help maintain the shape of the styling;
• film formers that provide stable fixation;
• vitamins;
• solar filters that protect against harmful ultraviolet radiation;
• panthenol (optional, depending on the preferences of the manufacturer, component), which prevents overdrying of the strands.

Dry varnishes are produced not only in the form of the usual spray, but also in the form of powder, placed in a small bottle. A specific feature of this tool is that in most cases it requires application to dry, and not to wet curls. This feature of the spray allows you to successfully use it "on the run", during a work break, when moving, traveling.

The attractiveness of a dry fixative is due to a number of advantages. These include:

• composition safety;
• hypoallergenicity;
• lightness of the substance applied to the hair;
• no effect of gluing and weighting of the strands;
• resistance of the composition to spreading at elevated temperature and ambient humidity;
• fast drying;
• the possibility of repeated modification of hairstyles;
• ease of use.

With all the obvious advantages, dry spray is not without some disadvantages. Be sure to pay attention to its inherent functional limitations:

• inability to securely fix heavy thick strands;
• inefficiency of application for non-standard, complex hairstyles.

Considering the characteristics of various brands of dry fixative, it should be remembered that it is primarily intended for everyday styling of fine hair. However, from among the famous brands, you can choose exactly the brand that is right for you.

When choosing a product, learn more about its composition. The presence of natural ingredients is an absolute advantage. Pay attention to the manufacturer of the cosmetic product: proven brands do not cause allergies, as they go through a multi-stage testing system. Before you start using the spray, apply a small amount to the crook of your elbow. If no irritation appears within 20 minutes, you can use it without any worries.

In order for dry polish to be effective, it must be applied correctly. Experts advise to adhere to the following recommendations:

• do not try to spray on wet hair (oily hair is an exception);
• on oily hair, varnish should be applied twice: first on wet, washed, and then on dried;
• strictly observe the rule of its spraying: no closer than 20 cm from the head;
• to increase the volume of hair, apply varnish first to the roots, and after drying the styling, fix it with a spray;
• use varnish at the end of each completed stage of creating a hairstyle.

When choosing a hair spray, remember that there is no absolutely safe cosmetic product. The most common contraindications to the use of dry varnish include:

• susceptibility to allergies which can be called by any of the tool's components;
• the presence of seborrhea, which develops rapidly with blockage of pores;
• bronchial asthma disease, in which any pungent odor can provoke a severe attack;
• the presence of open wounds on the scalp;
• having a skin disease which can be sharply aggravated under the influence of an unexpected smell or an unusual cosmetic product.

Experts strongly recommend applying the varnish strictly according to the instructions. In particular, if you want to achieve an impressive volume, then you should:

• wash and dry your hair;
• lowering your head, carefully apply the fixative to the hair roots;
• fix the crown strands with a hairpin, separate several lower ones and try to pull the dried curls up;
• dry hair from the bottom up;
• apply varnish to the strands by spraying.

To get curls, you must adhere to a different algorithm of actions:

• dry washed hair;
• secure the separated curls with hairpins;
• apply a fixative on each strand, wind it on curlers (it is not recommended to use hot styling methods);
• after removing the curlers from completely dried curls, do not comb the hair;
• separate the curls with your fingers and give them additional splendor;
• spray the styled hairstyle with a fixative.
