    COLAB Dry Shampoo Review

    March 11, 2020 / 0 Comments

    About a month ago, COLAB Hair was kind enough to send me this amazing PR package, which included a colorful lineup of their cult favorite Dry Shampoos!  Ever since I bleached the living daylights out of my hair, I've been relying heavily on dry shampoo to stretch my time in between washes, in an effort to extend my hair color and give it some much needed time to recover.  So, this seriously could not have come at a better time.

    According to their website, R+Co is a collective of some of the most forward-thinking, rule-bending hairstylists in the business.  They were kind enough to reach out to me and let me choose a couple of products from their line to try out and review.  I admit, I've never heard of the R+Co haircare brand prior.  It was so hard to choose from their selection because they have so many neat haircare products, especially in the coolest packaging 😍
