Let me first start off by saying that I am fully aware this post is not going up on a Tuesday. Yesterday was my Mom's birthday, and sometimes things don't get finished in time, and you have to sacrifice those things for more important things. So here I am, on a Wednesday, coming out of a cake coma, with your next Tuesday Tip!
I feel like baby powder is one of those household products we all own, but never fully utilize- until now! You probably know the common uses such as, sprinkling some in your sneakers or flats to prevent sweaty feet, or helping to absorb our bodies natural oils. I however, have used baby powder for many many years for a different need, dry shampoo! We've all been there, thinking our hair could stand one more day of not washing, to wake up looking like we spent the night inside a deep fryer. Not to worry, sprinkle some baby powder on your roots (or any oily areas), wait a few minutes for your hair to absorb the powder, and gently brush away the excess.
Take your tresses from greasy to glam!

This step is optional, but before brushing out the powder I like to massage my root area. Not only does this help the baby powder absorb more quickly, but adds extra volume to my hair as well. I'm a person who typically only washes my hair once or twice a week, so this little beauty hack really saves my life!
*Bonus Tip: Take your curls from tight to tousled by running some baby powder through them once they have cooled. The powder will act as a texturizing spray, helping to separate and provide a more beachy feel!
