Batiste Dry Shampoo Review

I don't have to wash my hair very often and I very rarely get that 'yikes, I need to wash my hair' feeling, so I didn't expect to need or like this product. Yet, surprisingly, on that day I realised I should have washed my hair but didn't have time, I tried this product out and found I really liked it. It's not something I use often, but it is a really great product to have on my shelf for those times when I only have time for a bare-necessities shower!

This product is easy to apply (sprays in) and doesn't leave any telltale signs in my blonde hair. The scent is obvious but without being overwhelming. It gives me another day or two before my hair gets really urgent!

Never knew about dry shampoo until BR. First time I got it in a BRBB since then have repurchased this brand and other brands but by far this is the top of the dry shampoo range. The price point is a little exspensive but I've learnt it is what it is and if you can get it on a deal then that's better. I can be guilty of overspraying and ending up with powering greys looking hair which isn't the thing. But mostly I can get it right what it does for my hair is removes any oilyness& gives my scents my hair but as for volume it just never adds any really. Maybe I haven't improved my dry shampoo technique that far. For now what it does I can be satisfied & will continue to repurchase, over any other brand.

If you have a fringe, if you're going on holiday, if you're generally lazy like myself batiste is a freaking life saver! This shiz comes in a million and one different scents - personally tropical and original are my favs. If you have super fine/limp hair like me it also helps heaps with styling to make it look 'effortless' even though I've probably spent 15mins on it.. Even if you spray a little too much on it's easily fixable with a little shimmy through with your hairbrush or fingers. Kmart is the best place I've found to buy at a reasonable price - usually the medium size can is $10 and they hold a variety of the scents :)

Not many people like to admit it, but we all have days when we ‘really’ should wash our hair but simply can't be bothered. Many people know of Batiste as the ‘Hair Survival Product for Festivals,’ please bare in mind Batiste’s dry shampoo range isn’t just for people who are staying away and camping! Their dry shampoo can be used in a few ways and not just as a hair refresher in between washes. It removes grease from hair giving it the impression of being cleaner. If you lift sections and spray this underneath into the roots it creates volume. It can make your hair look thicker if you spray through dry hair and then blow dry and if you have been out and your hair doesn’t smell fresh (Smokey rooms, BBQ smells etc), it masks the smells and your hair smells perfumed and gorgeous! It's like Fabreeze for hair!

Now from one product who would have thought you could do all that? Batiste really does know what they are talking about when it comes to dry shampoos. With years of knowledge under their belts, they have perfected a product so it's suitable for anyone. I currently have Batiste’s Tropical Dry Shampoo* (A mixture of Coconut and Exotic fragrances) and I adore the smell I absolutely love it. I usually go 2 days between washing my hair and find on day 2 I have a light spritz all over with Batiste’s Dry Shampoo, Day 3 if I am not washing it for whatever reason I will lift a section and spray under them into the roots just to add some volume back into my hair. My hair always smells great too in between washes and the fragrance really does last. People take vitamins and tonics as ‘pick me ups’ for their body, in my opinion, Batiste’s Dry Shampoo is a ‘Pick me Up’ for your hair!

Batiste Dry Shampoo is also available in 3 different sizes a jumbo size 400ml and the one pictured is a 200ml and a very cute mini size 50ml which is perfect to keep in your handbag.

I use this product in the morning when I don't have quite enough time in the morning to have a shower. It smells great and doesn't leave much residue in my hair at all.

Man...I remember this from back in the day...people used to only use it if they were hospitalised or had a broken bone where they couldn't immerse themselves in a bath or shower. It's come along way. I still like the classic scent but now have it in "Blush", "Oriental Blossom", "Marrakech", "Fresh" & "Eden". I use it for the days that I don't wash my hair and it freshens up my hair leaving it looking clean, soft and fuller looking. It's great for coloured hair as long as you thoroughly brush, and helps your do and vibrancy of colour last longer.

I love dry shampoo because it can be used for several different purposes. Of course it is great to help stretch out needing to wash your hair for a day or two without your hair looking or feeling horrid. But I also love it for styling. I often spray a little dry shampoo at the roots to help add volume to my hair. It's also great for doing certain hair styles such as pin up or 'big texas' hair as it adds volume and a bit of hold to the hair, making it easier to work with. The only thing I've found is that I'm not a fan of all the fragrances. There have been one if two smells that just did not work for me... but once I found a couple that I loved I stuck with them.

This product is amazing for those days when you need to wash your hair but don't have time or just can't be bothered. I Wash my hair once a week and use this dry shampoo on days where my hair is starting to get oily and the shampoo soak s all the oily up.
