My straight, super fine hair is naturally a complete oil factory at the roots, and I was lucky enough to have this given to me in 'Blush' by my fairy-hairmother (my stepmum who owns a hairdressing salon!) following the Christchurch earthquakes. We were without electricity and water for two weeks in our suburb, so this bad boy got a SERIOUS work out, as I managed to sneak off to a friends house for a shower once or twice a week but otherwise had to rely on Batiste to get me through... and boy did it deliver!
My hair goes pretty lank once it gets a bit greasy, and there's only so much anything short of a proper wash can do about that, so I still wore my hair up most of the time and certainly wouldn't go as far as to call this a cure-all, but it's definitely the next best thing. A few light sprays at the roots each morning and a quick brush through was all it took to save me from the slicked down greaseball look before throwing my hair up in a pony.
I still reach for it every now and then if I run out of time to wash my hair on its usual day (I'm an every other day girl) and it still doesn't fail to impress me every time.
My fine hair does not handle summer well- it gets oily roots during the hot nights and my goal of only washing my hair every three days means that more often than not I end up sporting a messy bun. Enter Batiste dry shampoo! This product has revolutionised my hair care- I can still only wash my hair every three days, avoiding even oiler, damaged hair and also avoid looking like a scruff! You spray this product onto the roots and it smells fresh- I particularly like the coconut one! After massaging it in, I like to brush my hair so that the product is distributed through the mid lengths. The result is clean looking, fresh hair! Great price point as a can will last two months, meaning great value for money.
Tips: Brush your hair after massaging in so that you can get the product through the mid lengths
