Schwarzkopf Got2be Dry Shampoos

If you’re having to do lots of Zoom calls or catch up with people on your screens, it’s all about the hair right now. (Sorry if we keep going on about hair. It’s currently a total obsession.)

Many (including Prince William) have joked about how it doesn't matter what you look like from the waist down. But hair? Everyone notices, and there’s only so many times you can get away with wearing a silk headscarf worn à la Rosie the Riveter.

So: next time someone schedules an urgent screen call on a Bad Hair Day, make sure you’ve got a tin of this handy. An absolute bargain from Schwarzkopf (‘improved formula and fragrances’, they promise – though we aren’t familiar with its previous incarnation), it is cleansing, creates what they call an ‘instant backcomb effect’ (i.e. va-va-volume at roots), and smells pretty good, too. (Choose from apple-y Extra Fresh Clean & Crisp – our choice, for instant freshening – or Extra Volume Breezy Tropical, for even more oomph.

Turn your head upside down, spritz onto roots, brush through and sort of tease into place.

We’re keeping it on our desks next to the tinted lip balm, for the digital equivalent of the neighbours dropping by unexpectedly.
