Batiste Dry Shampoo Review

Well, for me at least. I have tried a few different ones now, and the Batiste one is the only one that works (minus the pink one, for some reason that one didn't want to get along with me) They smell nice and are easy to use, just shake and spray, then rub into your hair. Or, pray into hair at night and leave to absorb oil overnight.

I’ve tried two different Batiste Dry Shampoos: the “Medium & Brunette” when I used to dye my hair, as it’s coloured and doesn’t leave any white residue (just don’t get it on your clothes accidentally) and “Tropical”, which I currently use.  

I love the coconut smell of Tropical, as it reminds me of being on holiday in the Caribbean. 

Compared to Tresemme’s Fresh Start Dry Shampoo, I found that Tresemme gave me more volume, but left a slightly sticky residue.  Batiste Dry Shampoo leaves my hair looking better (hardly any residue) but I don’t get as much volume.

Overall, it's a good product and does leave hair looking refreshed and much less greasy. It allows me to go for another day before having to wash my hair.

Why did I ever hesitate to try this? Previously I would use small amounts of baby powder to help absorb small amounts of excess oil to help freshen my hair before its next wash, and while that works, it's missing the number one quality of Batiste - Batiste not only absorbs oil but adds volume! Making your hair look truly clean again! I can't imagine not having this in my cupboard at all times now. I will definitely buy a mini bottle for things like plane trips and holidays.

I picked one of these up in England, a mini sized one, before I headed on a two week tour of Europe and I am so glad I did. This was perfect for the days when you were waking up extremely early after a long, late night before and you had no time to wash your hair. It freshened it up just enough to keep you going until the next destination. I wasn't a huge fan of the way it made my hair feel once it had been in for a while though. It also can be a huge pain to brush out as it causes my hair to tangle etc. Overall I would purchase again and would recommend to friends =)

I have really curly hair, which sometimes is great but sometimes I just don't have time to spend making it look good. The Batiste dry shampoo is awesome because it fits nicely in my handbag, and comes in really handy, especially after a long day. It gives your hair a fresher look. It leaves a strange feel though so I wouldn't use it as a staple - I'd definitely rather have the time to blow dry my hair if I had the choice.

I have tried the one for brunette hair as well as the XL volume one. I love the latter because it dries the roots as well as giving you hair a bit of extra oomph. It is perfect for when you hair goes flat on day two after washing. It is also great for extra volume if you're going out at night and don't want crunchy hairspray hair. Mini sizes are useful for travelling although the volume one is harder to find in a small can.

I have seen this raved about everywhere but it seems to make my dark blonde hair look whitish at the roots no matter how many times I brush it through and run my fingers through to work it in. I am sure I am using it right but a bit disappointed! I think it's a good product for the price thought minus the white look it leaves. It's not too bad but I would rather without it!!

This is my desert island product! I have quite long hair so washing it take up 1 hour of my life i'm never going to get back, until I met this fella! Its perfect to mask the 'bed head' smell, add volume to your hair and dry up and grease/oil build up. Sounds gross but when i'm having a lazy day and can't be bothered i just apply this. The bottles come in all sizes too including a little travel size one! The only down side to this product is the price, it's quite expensive, but it's worth it!

As a flight attendant I somedays don't have time(or can't be bothered) washing my hair. Dry shampoo is the perfect product. Spray it into the roots in the evening, go to bed, do NOT brush out. By the morning the white is gone(yay) it's sucked up all that oil overnight and now you can just brush it out. Trust me, this product is a flight attendants best friend.

I hate to mark a product down unfairly but this product just doesn't seem to work with my hair. I have tried maybe six times to use this, I even still have this product in my desk drawer for emergencies but.. It just seems it either leaves me with white hair, or dirtier feeling hair or looking like I have dandruff. It smells pleasant, and the concept is awesome, who wouldn't want a back up plan for heading out and you have greasy oily lank hair. But I can't honestly say this product works for me, because it doesn't. It seems to make it worse. Sigh. I wish it didn't! Maybe another brand?
