Herbal Essences Dry Shampoo Review
Hi friends! Dry shampoo has really been my best friend lately. At the end of a busy day, sometimes washing my hair is the last thing I want to do. I’m trying to let it grow out and it is quite thick, so it takes ages to dry. I’ve tried a few different brands of dry shampoo, but I have…
