Review: Batiste Dry Shampoo

Hello everyone! In a previous blog post about dry shampoo I mentioned that I never use it, but things have changed a little bit after that review! I bought a bottle of dry shampoo for those ''bad hair days'' when my hair looks oily and I don't have the time to take a shower before I leave the house. However, the one I previously reviewed left my hair with a bit of a weird white ish shine, so I gave that one to my younger sister (yup, the hair-freak).I really wanted to get one from Batiste because I heard good stories about the brand, but I hesitated for a while because I find them a little bit expensive. (The ones you can see above are like 4 pounds/5 euro each). I really wanted to give it a try though, so a few days ago I decided to buy the one with a hint of colour (so I could hopefully avoid that white shine) and my sister picked one that promised her big and bouncy hair.

You get 200 ml of product, the one I have is for the (medium) brunettes but they have a huuuge range of products. Do you want something with a bit of shimmer or a tropical scent? Batiste has it! It's also super simple to use: just shake the can, spray into the roots, massage for a minute and brush your hair!

Uh-oh, that does look pretty dark! This is what the can looked like after I was done spraying. At that point I was afraid that it would be a little bit too dark for my hair...

And this is what my hair looked like right after the spraying part, hello white stuff...

Okay, time for the before and after pictures! At the left you can see me with obviously dirty hair, at the right you can see what it looks like after I used the dry shampoo. Not bad eh? I'm very happy with the final result! At first I felt worried because my hair seemed covered in that typical white powdery stuff, but after I brushed my hair it looked fine. The dry shampoo smells pretty nice too, which is not a bad bonus!

My sister decided to go for this one, her hair is a tiny bit lighter and she never had any ''white shine'' problems, so she just wanted something that would give her hair a bit of an extra oomph.

 Again, the dry shampoo does a wonderful job! Just like the other one it makes oily and dirty hair look a whole lot better, and the effect is very long-lasting. However, we didn't really notice ''XXL volume'' or anything like that, and my sister mentioned that this one made her hair feel a little stiff and even said that her hair felt like ''a stack of hay'' at some point. It could be her hair type though, next time she wants to try the original version in stead.

Am I happy with my bottle of Batiste dry shampoo? Definitely! I don't know how long it's going to last (although I do hope that it's going to last a couple of weeks because I don't plan to buy a new can every month) but besides it being a bit expensive I do love the product! Using dry shampoo is a super easy and quick way to give your hair a boost and the huge product range of Batiste is also pretty awesome. I definitely suggest giving Batiste a try if you're looking for a dry shampoo! :)

Have you already tried dry shampoo before?
