What is considered the best dry shampoo? You don’t want to grab the first can you see, as some formulas can leave a powdery residue or weigh your strands down, resulting in a look that will have you feeling the opposite of a good hair day.
Before you reach for just any dry shampoo, Billboard Shopping spoke with celebrity hairstylist and star of Paramount+ reality show Blowing LA‘s Ted Gibson to get his expert insight on the best formulas to use, no matter what your budget and hair texture are. With clientele including Anne Hathaway, Angelina Jolie, Rachel Brosnahan, Lupita Nyong’o, Gabrielle Union and more, it’s no secret the hairstylist knows his way around hair products.
Keep reading to see Gibson’s picks, as well as how to use dry shampoo and ingredients to look out for.
How to Use Dry Shampoo
At first sight, it may look easy to use dry shampoo, whether you’re looking to maintain a blowout using your go-to blowdryer or hiding the fact you’re going on day three of unwashed hair. If you spray too close, you may get an unwanted residue, whereas spraying too far may not get enough of the product in your strands. Gibson recommends you “Spray 4 to 6 inches away from the scalp concentrating on the scalp and not the hair.”
Don’t just leave it, though — he further adds that “After you have applied it, massage the scalp to evenly distribute [the product around] the entire scalp.”
Best Dry Shampoo Ingredients
Gibson suggests when searching for the right dry shampoo for yourself, you “Look for Vegan and cruelty-free formulas.” This usually includes plant-based ingredients like argan oil, avocado oil, castor oil, black seed oil, murumuru butter and aloe vera.
“I think spray is good, but sometimes I do prefer a powder depending on what I want to accomplish and time for application,” he adds. “I have used them for covers of magazines as well as red carpet events.”

Time is a luxury and when it comes to styling your hair, and spending an hour or more per day on it is not maintainable. Lately, blow dryer brushes have swooped in to create a time-saving alternative. While the Dyson Airwrap is probably the first model you think of when you hear blow dryer brush, there are other, more affordable options out there that will not only leave you with a salon-worthy blowout, but won’t result in your wallet giving you the side-eye.

No matter what your budget is, before you wait for some beauty deals to knock down the price of the Dyson version, Billboard tested out Drybar’s Double-Shot Blow Dryer Brush, which acts as a worthy Dyson Airwrap dupe. The stying brush is only $155 compared to Dyson’s $600 price tag and is available on Amazon, Sephora, Ulta, Nordstrom and Target.

Drybar Double Shot Oval Blow Dryer Brush
$155.00 $154.08
As someone with thick hair, it’s not uncommon for my hair to frizz, making the traditional blow-dry approach unappealing. I also just don’t have the coordination to hold the hair dryer in one hand and brush in the other while attempting to flick and style sections just like at the salon.
Instead, I’d just wait until my bi-annual haircuts where I’d get my hair blown out at the end of the appointment. This continued on until blow drying brushes like the Dyson, Revlon’s One-Step and Shark’s SmoothStyle took over my social feeds. As a shopping writer, I did my due diligence and researched various models on the market that could handle thick, frizz-prone hair yet wouldn’t break the bank — and that’s when I discovered Drybar’s Double Shot Oval Blow Dryer Brush.
While it’s more of a splurge, the styling brush is totally worth it as it comes with a wide brush that can hold and dry more hair. Where I’d normally spend over 30 minutes blow drying my hair, it now only takes me around 20 minutes — so you’re getting your money’s worth. It may sound cliché, but the end result is salon-quality — my hair is smooth, bouncy and has lots of shine to it. That’s likely due to the use of ionic technology, which helps seal the cuticle for less frizz. The brand also strategically placed the vent holes to help speed up drying time, while the brush’s oval shape helps smooth and add volume as you style.
You can also choose between three modes: cool, medium and high, which can be customized to your desired haircare needs. While price tag remains steep at $150, it’s well worth it thanks to the ergonomic design and drastically shorter drying tim,e resulting in shinier, smooth hair that looks as though I’ve just stepped out of the salon.

The BET Awards saw a mix of stars hit the red carpet in elegant attire and hairstyles on Sunday (June 25). Among the celebrities to show off praise-worthy hairdos were Ice Spice and Latto, who opted for smooth straight strands and wavy voluminous hair. Their secret for hair perfection? Dyson’s Airstrait and Airwrap.
Before the award show began, both musicians prepared for the big night with their respective hair stylists. Ice Spice, with the help of celebrity hairstylist Kadijah Balde, went for a long, pin-straight hairdo that was achieved using a mix of the Dyson Airstrait and Airwrap, according to Balde.
“By using the new Dyson Airstrait straightener in dry mode at 285 degrees, I was able to straighten Ice Spice’s wig with no heat damage and achieve a sleek look without compromising the integrity of the hair,” Balde said in a statement. “Afterwards, I used a cool shot to lock in the straight look.”
For finishing touches, she ran the Dyson Airwrap through the “Princess Diana” singer’s hair to give it that fresh blowout look and shine.
“I then used … the firm smoothing brush attachment to brush and blow out her hair in order to proceed with additional straightening,” Balde added. “Dyson leaves the hair bone straight and very silky on my client.”
The finishing look was then posted the stylist’s Instagram account to show off the fresh, smooth strands.
Latto decided to debut waves full of volume and shine, which Dyson’s Airwrap was able to effortlessly achieve. Celebrity hairstylist Ashanti Lation helped her pull off this hairstyle using a couple attachments on the styling device.
“I used the Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler with the 1.6-inch long barrel attachment on a high heat and high airflow setting to create big, bold, beautiful blonde body waves, with minimal heat,” Lation explained in a statement. “I then used the Dyson Coanda Smoothing dryer attachment on high heat and high airflow to slick any flyaways for a polished final look.”

The versatile Dyson Airstrait can take freshly washed hair from wet to dry and straight in a matter of minutes. It can also sense when hair is in between the arms and will drop down airflow when it’s not to reduce noise and energy. The LCD screen will also allow you to see airflow and temperature settings for easier customization.

It also gained star-approval with Euphoria actress Barbie Ferreira being tapped to help launch the addition back in May 2023.
This best-seller even comes with a wallet-friendly price under $50, which, compared to designer perfumes with $100+ price tags, is a total steal!
