Batiste Dry Shampoo Review

When I first tried this dry shampoo I was not impressed mainly due to white power effect and I wasn't using it properly (Failing to part my hair, simply spraying.

The powder acts literally like zillions of tiny sponges sucking up excess oil and enabling an extra day without hair washing. Great for camping or those mornings you sleep in.

The multiple fragrances, colors and sizes you can purchase in make the product even more versatile. The brown powder is a game changer.

This hands down is the most effective dry shampoo I have used.

I actually bought Batiste Dry Shampoo to use on my toddler who can be very resistant to getting her hair wet. In contrast she thought it was quite fun getting her hair sprayed ... but then, once again, brushing it through was less than popular. I found it a good stand-by for quickly getting rid of a bit of sticky-ness (yoghurty-hand hair twirl anyone?) before going to day-care. For myself it was most effective for giving my fringe a quick blast before heading out for a fresher look and feel. Not a miracle-worker, but a good stop-gap to have on hand.

When dry shampoo first came out or became a big craze in NZ, I was young and naive. I didn't really understand why someone would use shampoo with out washing it out. I wish someone would of explained how amazing this mystical product is.

I have crazy curly hair and it's a mission to wash. So I avoid washing my hair. I use to wash my hair twice a week and now with batiste dry shampoo I only wash my hair once a week.

Since I have dark hair I use the one made for brunette so it won't leave a white cast in my hair. I find with batiste it gives my hair more volume and leaves it looking freshly washed.

There a lot of different types of batiste dry shampoos on the market. You can get different scents, for different hair colours and also for volume.

The good thing about the scented dry shampoos the scent doesn't linger on for too long so it won't give you a headache.

My lovely friend gave me the last of her can of batiste dry shampoo to try it out before I decided to purchase it myself - and I'm glad she did! I have heard lots of people rave about dry shampoo but for some reason it didn't work for me. I have used it a couple of times, following the instructions by spraying it into my roots at a distance then brushing through. While it initially gave my hair a glossy clea look, after about an hour tops the grease started to come back, and by the end of the day my hair was just as oily, if not oilier than it usually is when I aven't washed it. While batiste is very highly rated by most, and has a great selection of different fragrances, it does not seem to be suitable for my very fine, grease-prone hair!

I received a bottle of this in a beauty box last month, I received the scent "Blush". I wasn't particularly sold on the scent for starters but it did grow on me. I sprayed this on my hair when it was oily and flat on top - the only effect this had on my hair was that it made my hair feel soft, it looked a little bit shiny but it still looked completely dull and flat and would not have been comfortable going out for an event. So disappointed!

This product is really good for when my hair is greasy! It makes my hair look clean and also makes my hair smell nice. Its a great thing to have when you don't have time to wash your hair! Just spray and you have clean hair again! It really is a handy product. The only thing i could say bad about it, is the fact that when you spray your hair it makes your hair look grey but an easy thing to do to get rid of that is just to brush your hair to blend in the spray. I really enjoy the blush fragrance, it has a great smell to it. This shampoo also brings volume to your hair and style :)

I have this in 'Blush' and only because I got it in a subscription box. I have really short hair and have trained it to survive on one shampoo/condition a week (its naturally wavy/curly). PS google the No 'Poo movement ;) From time to time, it gets a bit oily in the last couple of days before it's due for a wash. I have used this a few times on those occasions to SOME success. Whilst it does soak up the oils, I find it dulls my hair. My hair is very dark brown and quite shiny but after use of this it looks rather dull. Also, the first time I used it I thought I was getting dandruff! I was finding product fallout on my shoulders and fingernails (I'm a hair raker) and thought it was dead skin! It does smell okay, but kind of like a room spray. I wouldn't expect someone to smell it on me and say "Oh you smell nice!" Did it make my hair look less oily? Yes. Was it easy enough for the layman to use? Sure. Would I recommend it? Probably not. Maybe if you're a blonde.

Dry Shampoo is one of my 'must have' items, I've tried a fair few different brands in my time - some of which are absolutely brilliant, and the others that are a completely let down. Despite the hype, Batiste Dry Shampoo didn't fit in either of those two categories, I just found it to be completely average.

It does do a fantastic job at removing grease - almost too well. If I use this in the morning on second/third day hair, grease is instantly absorbed by the product and my hair returns to it's voluminous and "fresh" looking state, and remains that way all day.

As I said before, it does do a fantastic job of removing grease.. but I do find that it does leave a lot of residue and has a tonne of product fall out. Perhaps I'm just using too much in my hair, but whenever I shake my hair - despite the inital rub in and brush through, I find that I shed a lot of dry shampoo dust. Not really a great thing for it to do when I pretty much wear all black!

The product comes in a variety of scents, I prefer Clean & Classic although I have tried others. They do smell nice, but I just find them to be far too strong.

The packaging is adorable. You can easily find it in your bag or on the store shelves. It's iconic and bold. I love that even though there are different scents available, they all remain consistent in their branding.

Depsite it's averageness, it's a product that does work. I will always keep one in my bag as they are the only brand I have found that does a dry shampoo in a mini bottle.

I have found that there is nothing super outstanding about this brand compared to others. They are all very similar in texture and performance. For example the telk spray does make your hair feel quite clean for about an hour or so. The appeal of this product is the price - it is quite a bit cheaper than other brands of dry shampoo.

I got this product after seeing it in shaaanxo's favourites video. I wanted something to make my hair look less oily on those days where i dont have time to wash hair. I have a sandy blonde natural hair colour so its very noticeable when its oily as it bunches together and goes a darker colour. I found this product did exactly what it says. It like sucks up all the oil and leaves your hair looking fresh and smells amazing.
