I used to struggle with greasy hair until I came up with a 3p solution – and no high-end dry shampoo can ever match it | The Sun

FORGET running to the drugstore to stock up on dry shampoo, as the perfect solution might be sitting in your kitchen cupboard.

Those with greasy hair know what a struggle it is to keep it looking clean and fresh – and sometimes it feels like no amount of dry shampoo will do the job.


This was a problem one beauty lover, Natalie Rose, used to be familiar with for years… until she came up with an inexpensive solution – using corn starch, also known as corn flour here, in the UK.

According to Natalie, who shared the hair hack on TikTok, not only does it cost next to nothing but the kitchen staple will also keep your locks looking fresh for more than a week.

''If you have greasy hair, I'm gonna change your life,'' she promised in the now-viral video.

''I've tried every dry shampoo from drugstore to high-end – corn starch can make my hair last eight days.''

''You need the tiniest bit on the brush and just pat it in.

''Blend it out like you would your make-up.

''It's also not flammable chemicals on your scalp,'' she added.
