Batiste Dry Shampoo

Both my husband and I are a bit unfortunate in the fact that we seem to suffer from greasy hair. This is not normally a problem with daily hair washing using a good shampoo. However, a few months ago my husband had an accident while building a set for our local amateur dramatics group. Some wood landed on his head which resulted in him being taken to A and E with a nasty gash which was 'glued' back together. All was well and good apart from the fact that he was unable to get that area of his head wet for five days which of course meant no hair washing! Being the loving wife that I am, I was more concerned about the state his hair would be in than any lasting injuries he ...  Read the complete review

There are times when I like to complain, nothing like having a good rant every now and again. On one such occasion I was giving off about having greasy hair and it being a hassle to wash it everyday (at the time my hair was quite long). My friend informed me that the solution for in between washes was to sprinkle talc on my head and brush it through my hair. What?? Seriously?! Ok, so I tried it out once when I was having a seriously bad hair day, but the only talc I could find was lavender fragranced, which I had been given in a gift set at Christmas, and smelled so overpowering that I was more self-conscious than ever about my hair! Nevermind the fact that my ...  Read the complete review

My hair is quite greasy so I have found the most fantastic product to take care of it. Often I do not want to wash my hair everyday as I have spent ages straightening it etc, the day before and wanted something that would help with the grease when I came across Batiste Dry Shampoo. It says on the can, "refreshes and revitalises hair between washes." It comes in a 150ml spray can. I always buy mine in Boots where it costs £2.09 per can. This is good as I have seen some other dry shampoo's out there from places such as Bumble and Bumble that cost upwards of £20. When you spray it onto your hair it comes out in a fine mist much like the ...  Read the complete review

I have extremely greasy hair and skin and find that I need to wash my hair everyday for it to look fresh, or every other day at a push. I started to use Batiste about a year ago and it truly is a MIRACLE!!!! I still wash my hair every other day but the in between days look as fresh and clean as the days it has just been washed. It is also a brilliant product for freshly washed hair to give it volume and bulk to put it in an 'up do'. I find that a little of this product goes a long way and some days I only need to apply it to the crown for volume and my fringe to make my hair look fresh. I am a blonde so it blends well in my hair and I find that if I apply ...  Read the complete review

My greasy hair has always been one of the banes of my life. School photos show my moon face looking miserable under its curtain of sebum laden tresses looking for all the world as if I was trying to imitate my Dad's Brylcream look. I was told it was a condition which, like acne, would improve post adolescence. Nearly half a century later I am still waiting! The common belief then was that frequent washing would over-stimulate sebaceous glands and exacerbate the problem. Happily most experts now agree that this is not the case. In any case, in the 60's daily hair washing was not the norm so I never put the theory to the test! I just suffered! In my teens, a ...  Read the complete review
