Dry shampoo - any good?

[Summersummer18]

I have long fine hair and the day after I've washed it it's very limp with no body.

Do you think dry shampoo could work for me?

I’d give it a go ! Can’t hurt can it! Try to was it as little as you possibly can! My sister has the same kind of hair and this has helped her from this problem x

For fine hair it's great it really thickens it up

I just use cornflour in a herb shaker, much nicer end result but takes a few moments longer as it requires massaging in a bit.

I wouldn't be without it.

Oh great I'll get some. Any brand in particular?

I have fine bob length hair and wouldn't be without it. I use batiste.

I like the Aussie miracle one, it smells nice and is completely clear rather than white

Batisse seems to be the best one I have tried, and it comes in several 'flavours'.

I use it for my fine limp hair on day 2 after a wash then again day 3 with a pony tail sometimes I can even get a 4th day in a pony tail. I use the batiste tint of dark one for my greys.

I've tried many types but Batiste is my favourite. My hair is very fine and very straight too and this stuff really is a lifesaver for preventing stringy, mid afternoon hair. Without it I'd definitely have to wash my hair daily whereas with it I only need to wash my hair every other day.

I only really like the Batiste one....any "flavour" though, somehow the others seem more spray-ish than dry

I've tried a bunch of posh ones and they're all shit.

Bastiste is the best.

I find the Batiste plumping powder better for volumising limp newly-washed hair.

Batiste is the best - I've tried loads of varying prices and promises and always got back to Batiste!

Thanks everyone, definitely buying it tomorrow

Just got MoroccanOil (lighter tones) after several years of Batiste - definitely a step up. (Moneywise as well )

Dry shampoo is great, although the really cheap own-brand ones I've tried have been poo. DH and I are loyal to Batiste, it's excellent and the cheapest 'brand' one.

I'm sure you can buy a travel sized can of batiste in boots/Superdrug if you didn't want to buy a massive can without trying it. I have fine hair in a chin length bob and normally wash every day but I have when I'm feeling lazy used batiste occasionally. It's not quite the same as freshly washed hair but it's definitely passable.

Batiste is generally on a half price promotion at either Boots or Superdrug.

They don't do anything for my hair, even Batiste. Really annoying as my hair is greasy after one day.

I have the same problem Gwen. Would someone mind describing to me how they use it? I keep thinking I'm doing it wrong somehow!

Batiste by far the best one I've tried.

I spray it directly on my roots and rub in with finger tips like shampoo

Shake the can
Spray it on roots, along fringe
Leave it for 30 seconds
Tip head upside down and rub it in vigorously

You can brush after with a soft brush and if helps work it in and volumise
