My first experience with dry shampoo was a camping trip as a child (I despise camping in a hateful vicious kind of way) when my mother tried to clean my hair with it. It was a disaster. It looked like she’s gone after me with white spray paint. In college a friend referred to dry shampoo as “scalp whitener”.
Then last February I was helping my friend Malan Breton produce his fashion show and one of his sponsors was Batiste Dry Shampoo. I thought it was odd. Did he ask his models not to wash their hair?
But their hair looked amazing. See for yourself, here.
We each received a can of Batiste in our gift bags. A few months later my roommate presented me with an empty can. “Can you get more?” I was surprised to learn she LOVED the stuff. So I tried it.
Holy crap. This stuff is GREAT. Okay I’m sure some of you are rolling your eyes and saying “I wash my hair! I don’t need this.” Uh but you do. Not only does this stuff freshen your hair ( You never skip shampoos? You don’t travel?) but I can see skipping a shampoo to use it on special occasions as no joke it makes your hair fuller and more manageable. You spray the roots and it gives you such lift.
Batiste also makes dry shampoo with a hint of color for blondes and brunettes. It helps blend in root re-growth of colored, tinted or bleached hair. A quick burst revitalizes hair, leaving it feeling clean and fresh. No need to worry about skipping a shampoo.
Seriously this stuff rocks.
Check out Batiste Dry Shampoo
None have ever worked for me, but I’ll give them a try!
most suck! I was as shocked as anyone.
So it’s basically a hair product but could also be a shampoo replacement?
well I’ve noticed if you use on clean hair it doesn’t quite work as well if your hair is clean, maybe it works with the oils in your hair, but yeah try it!
I’m old enough to remember Pssssssst. The color formulation sounds interesting.
Much better than Psssst
Does it have scent? I have pretty bad scent allergies.
sadly it does, and a fairly strong one.
Wow, this does sound great. I have a 3-year old and washing my hair every day just isn’t happening. And I always need a lift!
Valuable info! Thanks for the write-up, Cameron.
I have super greasy hair, so love to have something to maybe extend my wash for evenings out. I’ll definitely have to try this!
Where can I find it on Long Island? I’d love to try it
When I was a kid, my mom would rub my hair with corn meal if I had a cold. She believed that bathing was unsafe for sickies. This has to be a huge step up from that!
I love this stuff. Even the packaging is fabulous.
Sounds like a convenient product! Thanks for the information.
I tracked this down and bought some, I like how it works but I’m not crazy about the scent.
