Trying to refresh your hairstyle or just give it some added oomph? You may be considering a dry shampoo or a hair texture spray. Both are popular products, but what are the differences and when should you use them?  

What Does a Texturizing Spray Do?  

A texturizing spray is best used to bring out your hair’s natural shape while adding texture. Whether you want enhanced waves or just some added grit, texture sprays can help to elevate your hairstyle. They are perfect for achieving those effortless, undone looking hairstyles, adding a little tousle to your hair’s natural movement.  

Is a Texturizing Spray the Same as Hair Spray?

 It’s easy to confuse the purpose of hair spray versus texture spray. They both help to give hairstyles some added hold, but a hair spray is better for a more polished, controlled look while a texture spray delivers a style that’s more lived in with a soft, tousled finish.

Some texturizing sprays, like wave sprays, can be used on damp or dry hair to enhance texture, while hairsprays should only be used on dry hair after styling.

How to Use a Texture Spray

To add texture to your hair, use a texturizer hair spray like Lazy Jane Salt-Free Wave Spray. To apply, shake product, mist on damp or dry hair from roots to ends, and scrunch to bring out texture. Air dry hair in braids or blow dry with a diffuser for even more texture. 

What Does a Dry Shampoo Do?

Dry shampoos are typically aerosols or powders that are applied to dry hair to absorb oils between wash days, that gives your hair a refreshed look. Use dry shampoo for hair when you want to revive hair from looking oily and give it that just-washed look.

How to Use Dry Shampoo

To apply, shake the can and hold 10-12 inches away from dry hair. Spray lightly on roots and massage into scalp or brush through. 

When to Use a Texture Spray vs. Dry Shampoo

While both products are meant to enhance your hair, a dry shampoo works to extend hair styles and a texture spray works to prepare them. 

To put it simply, use dry shampoo in between washes to keep hair looking clean and refreshed and use a texture spray during styling for grit and texture.
