However, this method does not work with all types of deodorants and carries some risks.
Limits and precautions to take
Ingredients not suitable for the scalp
Most deodorants contain aluminum salts, alcohol, fragrances, or antiperspirants , which are not designed to be applied to the scalp. These ingredients can dry out, irritate, or cause itching .
A sticky effect or visible residue
Unlike dry shampoos, some stick deodorants can leave behind a greasy or sticky residue , especially if they’re not formulated in powder form. The result can be worse than the initial problem!
Risk of follicle obstruction
