Dry Shampoo Alternative: Why Use Hair Cream
Hair cream is a great alternative to dry shampoo without sacrificing shine and moisture.
Who doesn’t love a good dry shampoo? When you’re in a rush or just need to freshen up your hair it is a go-to product for many of us.
Dry shampoo is even great before and after a workout session to get rid of sweat. But dry shampoo is not always the best option for your hair.
First, you need to be ready for the white cast the product leaves behind and the extreme oil absorption that might actually work against your hairstyle goals. That’s when hair cream enters the game!
What is Hair Cream?
First thing is first, what exactly is hair cream? Simply put, hair cream is a styling and conditioning product that nourishes your hair while providing texture, volume, and moisture.

Unlike dry shampoo, our Glacial Cream, will not leave your hair feeling dry or give a chalky look or dry feel to your hair. Highland Glacial Cream is a hair cream that is good for your hair!
