My experience with Batiste Dry Shampoo Original:

Batiste Dry Shampoo Original is very aptly described as “clean and classic”. It not only lifts up your limp hair by absorbing the extra oil, but it also has a fine fragrance which leaves you feeling fresh. Manufacturers claim that it is for all hair types, and its suits my oily hair. It lives up to its claims, and is an excellent return of investment.

Its very powdery and whitish. Below are the images how it looks just after spraying and 1 minute after spraying.Just after spraying it is a little wet.About a minute after spraying, it turns to an extremely smooth powder, and the powdery white color becomes less intense.

Pros of Batiste Dry Shampoo Original:

• Has very subtle citrus scent.
• Instantly revs up the limp oily hair by absorbing all the oil.
• Oily hair beauties don’t have to wash hair every day, and can even then look fresh.
• Perfect for the lady on the go, and all those who don’t want to damage their hair by washing it every day.
• The fragrance is not at all bothersome a few minutes after the application
• The can is sturdy and easy to use.

Cons of Batiste Dry Shampoo Original:

• Care has to taken to spray dry shampoo from a proper distance, or it will leave your hair whitish, and you will have to work a bit harder to get the white powder out.
• You need to properly brush out the dry shampoo, as it is very powdery.
• Also if you do not massage it properly with your fingertips, it won’t be that effective.
• If you apply more quantity, your hair will feel a lot heavy the next day. I have never ever been able to skip washing the day after using dry shampoos.

IMBB Rating: 4/5 (Pretty good, but a greedy person like me needs something more 😉 ) |BUY THIS PRODUCT HERE|

Will I repurchase/recommend Batiste Dry Shampoo Original?
Though this dry shampoo does its work pretty well, but I am not fully satisfied with it. It works pretty well for now, but I will be on a constant lookout for a dry shampoo which does not force me to wash my hair the very next day after its application, even if I don’t have to go out anywhere.
