Dry Shampoo - Notes and Rough Drafts
-dry shampoo is often a power form put into the hair, near the scalp, allowed to sit in the hair and then massaged throughout the scalp to ensure the powder is evenly dispersed, powder can sit in hair for short amount of time or overnight and brushed out in the morning

-dry shampoos can be purchased in aerosol or power form, can be also be made at home/by the user of the product

-dry shampoo is used to absorb sebum in the hair, which is oil produced by glands in the scalp. it's the sebum that causes hair to have the greasy appearance and it's produced to preserve the moisture of the hair and scalp (prevent from drying out which could lead to flaky skin). the powder within the dry shampoo absorbs the sebum, which reduces the greasy appearance of the hair, but the absorbed oil and powder remain in the hair so the hair may not feel more clean (would need to shampoo/wash scalp formally for hair and scalp to feel "clean"). may need to find a more reputable or appropriate source before using in the real article

-purchased dry shampoo: common ingredient listed on original page

-do it yourself dry shampoo: cornstarch or starch base, baby powder or essential oils for smell, essentially mimic the ingredients already found in dry shampoo, will be a powder that will need to be brushed through the hair after applied may need to find a less bias source

-why shampoos are needed (need to look at this source more and write more notes from) (can you use source, but might be considered a more bias source)

-the oils in hair and why they are important
