Maybe it’s a stretch to call a dry shampoo a miracle. But for me, someone with oil-prone hair that makes skipping even one day of shampooing socially questionable, Vegamour’s GRO Dry Shampoo ($32) may be a miracle.
I’ve tried my fair share of dry shampoos. Some don’t stand a chance against my hair’s amped up oil production. Others do a fair job of letting me go in public on Day 2, though by the evening I am anxiously anticipating vigorously shampooing the next morning. None have done what GRO did: make me forget if I’d shampooed my hair that day or not. Wait, did I wash my hair in the shower this morning? Or was that yesterday? My normally razor-sharp memory was truly stumped, and my hair didn’t give away any clues, since it felt and looked the same on both shampoo days and GRO Dry Shampoo days.

Vegamour GRO Dry Shampoo for Thinning Hair — $32.00
It must be a fluke, I thought. My hair was rewarding me, for whatever reason, by looking lush and voluminous days in a row, but it surely wouldn’t happen again. But then it did. And a few days after that, when I was confident it was a no-wash, dry shampoo day, I inspected my roots for signs of oil trying to sneak through. Nothing. GRO is the real deal in terms of absorbing excess oil and perspiration, but there’s a kicker: It also, apparently, bumps up your hair’s thickness and reduces hair loss when used long-term. Now that would be a miracle.
GRO parallels the ethos of all Vegamour products, most notably their fan-favorite GRO hair serums. Each uses a blend of organically grown phyto-active ingredients, which penetrate the scalp to help rev up hair follicles to visibly increase hair density and leave you with thicker, longer Gigi Hadid hair in as little as three months. GRO includes a couple main ingredients: organic rice starch, which helps absorb excess dirt and oil, and red clover and mung bean, which have been shown to prevent hair loss.

Vegamour GRO Hair Serum for Thinning Hair — $58.00
Whether that is true remains to be seen for me, but early signs are hopeful. My collection of shedded strands post-showers seems considerably smaller, but could it just be a placebo effect? I don’t know. But I do know that, simply as a dry shampoo, GRO has proven its place on my overcrowded product shelf. It’s lightweight, distributes evenly, doesn’t leave a powdery residue, and immediately provides serious oomph. The scent, which is all natural, is a delicate, fresh bergamot fragrance, the same as all of Vegamour’s serums.
Celebrity hairstylist Ashley Streicher, whose clientele includes Mandy Moore and Emma Roberts, is a fan of Vegamour’s dry shampoo too. “The GRO Dry Shampoo is great for anyone looking for clean ingredients and clean-feeling hair, without the hassle of washing,” she says.
“I like to lift the hair and spray 12 inches or so away from the roots, so the spray can cover a large area,” says Streicher. “I then gently massage with my fingers to help distribute the product.” If you have dark hair, beware that GRO may briefly turn your locks slightly gray, but don’t worry—it’s temporary. Simply revel for a minute in your Stacy London-esque streak.
GRO is meant for all hair types: straight, wavy, curly, coily, fine, medium, and thick. Whether you want to skip shampoo days more often, or are hoping to give your thinning hair a bit of a boost, GRO will give you serious volume. (“If hair growth is your goal, I recommend using the Dry Shampoo as needed, in conjunction with daily use of GRO Hair Serum,” says Streicher.)
