This post brought to you by TRESemmé. All opinions are 100% mine.
Blogging has turned me into a night owl, and I rarely get to bed before midnight. Considering I also have to leave the house each morning by 7:30am to get the kids to school on time, I am often rockin’ the greasy-hair-pony-tail-and-sweats look. (Enter from stage right my new hero: TRESemmé Fresh Start Dry Shampoo.)
Yes DRY shampoo! No water required. You just spray it on, let it dry a few minutes, then brush it out and style as usual. Have you ever tried a dry shampoo before? Well, I never had until a few weeks ago and I have to tell you that I am now sold. However, there are a few tricks and tips in spraying this stuff that will help you get the best results:
- Shake the can well before you spray and in-between bursts to make sure product sprays evenly.
- Lift sections of your hair and spray lightly at the roots.
- Hold can 8-12 inches from your head and spray in short bursts. (So important! It sprays on wet and won’t work well if you’re spraying too close to your head.)
- Don’t spray like hairspray (all over and continuously) – remember short bursts at the roots.
- Let it sit for 1-2 minutes, then use your fingertips or a brush to distribute the product evenly.

Would you like to try a bottle of TRESemme’ Fresh Start for free? Just leave me a comment letting me know why you need some dry shampoo. Out of the comments, I will pick one U.S. continental citizen and mail you a bottle….on me! I think you’ll love it.
Because I have 2 teenagers and a 1st grader…:-)
Oh I really need to try this! I never can skip washing my hair a day, my scalp is way too oily. I can’t believe they have come out with a dry shampoo. Genius, if it works.
I have yet to try dry shampoo, but would love to give it a shot! I have a-l-o-t of hair & having to actually wash & dry my hair can be time consuming (often a challenge with my toddler running around)! Thank you =)
I need this because I get greasy roots on 2nd day hair! It would be nice to skip washing my hair once in a while.
What a great service you are doing for all of your Readers! I am disabled & cannot wash my hair as often as I’d like to. I asked my stylist about using a dry shampoo, & she recommended one called “big sexy hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo” made by Sexy Hair Concepts in Los Angeles. It comes in a bright red 3.4 oz spray can & retails for $18.00 (with a “special price” sticker next to the price). I like your recommendation’s price much better! Thank you for the opportunity.
Wow, this looks like it could really work well!! I have so much hair,this ould be a great thing for me to start using, would love to try!!!!
I’d like to win because I’m having my first baby (c-section) the day before Thanksgiving. I don’t know for sure, but I have been told they cause some upheaval. I’m thinking holidays and a newborn could cause a need for a quick way to freshen up! LOL!
This is great! I’ve been wanting to try this product but its always sold out when I look for it. I have super fine hair and I have to wash daily (in the summer I still have to use baby powder even when I wash daily). I’d love to try a product that could give my fine hair a break from daily shampoo. Thanks!!
I have got to try this stuff! With a new baby it’s impossible to shower as often as I like and my hair becomes a ball of grease 🙂
I would absolutely love this product! I am a teacher and my day starts early. This would be the perfect solution on the days when I just don’t have time to wash my hair 🙂
Can I make a case for the stuff? Triplet sons, hubby out of country 3 weeks a month (this week Germany…next week Turkey), working part time…… I have tried 2 other brands that I was not that impressed with. I would love to try this one and see how it does. Pick me! Pick me!!
I would love to give this a try! I am always rushing around in the morning and with my oldest starting kindergarten this year I am finding it harder than ever to get out the door on time! This would definitely be a huge help on those days when there just isn’t time to wash and dry my ridiculously thick hair!
I’ve been wanting to try dry shampoo for awhile now. I like Tresemme is as good a brand as any!! 🙂 It would be GREAT for long weekends at rodeos with the hubs where there are no showers available… haha.
i have been DYING to try out a dry shampoo! i always wished i could be one of those girls that could skip a day of washing, but no such luck! i can’t even shampoo the night before without looking like a greasy mess come noon! so sad! you should totally pick me 😀

This week, while getting my hair shampooed, I was told to quit washing my hair every day (my hair is colored every 3 months or so). Toni (shampoo tech) said it was beginning to dry out; however, I love the feel of clean hair and this dry shampoo may do the trick! Definitely want to try it.
I would love to try this dry shampoo out! I’m generally in the same boat as you (up till midnight and out of the house by 7:45), so washing my hair is something I try to only do a couple of times a week (who has the time to dry it??!) I’ve wanted to try a dry shampoo for a while now. It’d be really interesting to see the difference.
Yes, yes and yes I must try this product! Like you, I am a blogger and a mommy and while I am typically a morning person I now find myself working on the blog into the evenings. The next morning I am either bringing my daughter to daycare or staying home with her, both make it difficult to fit in a shower. While I like skipping a shower, I don’t like looking like I skipped a shower! Any product that can help me keep it all together would be greatly appreciated!
Great blog, keep up the good work!
I love trying new products! I have thick hair and it takes forever to dry and would LOVE to only wash every other day!
I live in a dry climate and I only wash my hair every other day. Some products actually dry my hair out (like gel); so I would LOVE to try this for free!! Pick me! :.)
My friend uses this and says it is amazing! I’m starting a new job on Monday, and I will have to get up super early. This would be great!
Well, I would love to try this new product because my hair dresser says I shouldn’t wash my hair everyday. I have washed my hair everyday all my life because my hair tends to get oily by the 2nd day. I would love to try this product to see if this would enable me to skip hair washing days, thus make me and my hair dresser very happy 🙂
I work out every day so washing my hair is a must. Unfortunately, my thin, fine hair doesn’t agree that this is a good thing so I’d love to try something like this instead.
Would love to try this product. I hate when I really want to wash my hair because it’s flat, but don’t have time. This product sounds like the answer! I’m also THRILLED to find your site. I found you via “Beneath My Heart”!
I would love to try TRESemme’s dry shampoo. I have a bottle of another brands dry shampoo at home… and it works terribly, because I bought the absolute cheapest brand at the store. I would love to see how this brand compares!
I’d love to try this because unfortunately, i’m one of those girls who has to wash her hair every. single. day. because my roots get so greasy. Thanks for a great giveaway!
I wash my hair every day. This sounds the interesting.
I would LOVE to try this. I’m so envious of those that can go a couple of days without washing… maybe this will give me a chance!
Have been wanting to try it out! Awesome!
What a great (and fun) giveaway! Thanks!!!
I have oily hair, so all of my adult life I have had to wash my hair every day. Well, every day that I’m going out in public… 🙂
This product sounds like a life saver!
This would be perfect for days that I make a shuttle run to the HS before 7am, a shuttle run to the middle school by 8 and to work at the preschool by 8:30. Count me in!!
I really love dry shampoo but the ones I’ve found are much more expensive. It’s really good to see this reasonably priced, high quality brand, TREsemme entering the dry shampoo market. Thanks for the giveaway.
I need it for many reasons! I have 3 kids, so many times all the hot water is gone by the time I get my turn in the shower and there is no way I can put my head into freezing cold water! Another reason is that my hair does better “dirty.” Yes I still rock some big hair – I think it balances out a big booty! And a freshly washed ‘do just doesn’t do as well. Finally, the only way I can get a decent shower is to get up super early and well, I’m just not a morning person. I suppose I enjoy sleep better than a hot shower!
This would be great for me to use post gym when I have somewhere to go other than home. I’d love to try it!
Would love to try this stuff – I wash my hair everyday to keep oiliness at bay but I keep hearing how bad that is. Dry shampoo sounds perfect.
Hi! I must confess I am a lurker but had to comment (and *definitely* get in on the giveaway!) on this one. 🙂 I have babyfine hair with a double cowlick (sigh). Am also on meds for some DD’s (darn diseases) and between those&the DD’s my hair falls out if I have to wash every day. So-I got a “shot” one day I stuck my almost-greasy head in to say hi to my stylist&she spritzed me with her own! It looked so much fluffier&the cowlicks blended into the fluff! It does still feel like it needs a wash,but it eliminates ballcap day. I vot Yes! &beg for an entry a la lurk. 🙂
Never used dry shampoo. Is it good to use? Sounds great for a girl on the run
I often find myself having to jump in the shower mid-day because I get an overwhelming feeling of greasy hair & cannot handle the nastiness. I then have to get ready all over again. This is a pain. I’d love to try the dry shampoo in hopes of having a smooth, uninterupted, less greasy day!
I’m a little skeptical….but I will try 🙂
I’ve been wanting to try this! I would never dream of being able to go a day without washing my hair, so maybe now I can dream! 😉
I actually just tried another brand’s dry shampoo for the first time the other week…and I love how it works, but my bottle clogged after the first time I used it 🙁 So sad! I’d loooove to get another bottle from you! 🙂
I am so bored with the whole hair routine every morning. I’d love to give thia a try!
Oh my word! I just was a commercial for this! I’d love to try it! Pick me! I get so tired of washing my hair everyday (especially in winter) and the dryness it creates.
Just a side note: Some of the reviews stated that the product left a powdery film on brunettes. Since I’m not a brunette, I can’t speak to this but I do know it’s very important to use it correctly. The spray is a clay that absorbs oil but if you just spray it all over (like hairspray) it won’t work correctly. Also, it doesn’t make my hair feel clean. It still feels dirty but looks way better and it adds a ton of body. Great product when you’re in a jam!
I’m also a night owl – blogging, cleaning, enjoying the peace and quiet when the kids are finally in bed…..but with 5 little ones I’m not exactly sleeping in every morning and don’t always have time for a shower. This really sounds great and I would *love* to try this on busy days!

love to try it…
It’s better for your hair to not wash it every day, so I try to use dry shampoo on my off days.
Anything that helps my hair stay out of the water (its very very dry) and extends my hard fought blow-out (I have arms like Gorgeous George) would be fabulous!
Oh my gosh I need this stuff! About 8 months ago I started trying to wash my hair every-other day instead of every day. It’s not too bad, but that every-other day when I don’t wash it I ALWAYS wear it up. It’d be nice if this could allow me to wear my hair down on those days 🙂
I’m always up for a new product! Thanks for sharing!
Would LOVE to try this. I have normal-oily hair and would love to actually wash my hair the night before or keep a blow out that I got after work- for the next morning!! My hair drives me NUTS that way!! In the summer- my bangs are greasy by the end of the work day.. I’ve tried other kinds but don’t like their whitish residue. Haven’t tried this one yet though!
