The warmer weather upon us and we’ve been enjoying more time outside. Not just us, our whole family, including our dogs! I made this dry shampoo for dogs to keep them smelling fresh and clean. It’s fun, easy, and yummy smelling. I even made a free doggy printable for those of you that love to label jars as much as I do!
Have you ever used (or made) a dry shampoo for yourself? Dry shampoos freshen up hair in between washes. Dry shampoos are a wonderful quick fix for those days where you are rushed or where you want to make your hair smell pretty without going through the entire wash and dry process. If your dog doesn’t have any skin issues and is relatively good health, you can make a dry shampoo for them too! This is perfect for our furry friends who adore jumping around under the warmth of the sun.
This is the Skin Safe Vanilla Fragrance Oil I used. (Click here to see the kind I use)
