Best dry shampoo?

[EmmaGrundyForPM]

I occasionally use dry shampoo, but find it dries out my hair and also I don't like the smell. I have only used Batiste. Has anyone found a gentler dry shampoo, preferably one that doesn't smell too artificial?

Sorry to be unhelpful, but I've tried various (Boots, L'Oréal...) and have never found anything as good as Batiste. I have v greasy, fine hair that needs washing every day, so will follow with interest!

Batiste is the only one used between DD15, DD17 and me. None of thr others can stand up to it in our opinion (we have tried many!)

I like soap and glory's dry shampoo

One to rule out is Superdrugs coconut dry shampoo. Smells more like banana to me and does bugger all. Batiste is my favourite so far, but I use it before bed so a lot of the powder and perfume has dissipated.

thanks for the responses. I'm sure I once read (on here?) an article about a really good dry shampoo but it sounds like Batiste is the best "regular" one anyway.

Batiste all the way

I've tried them all (as my username suggests!) and always go back to Batiste original.

I’ve tried many, including some more pricey brands, and always go back to batiste!

OK, maybe I need to see if there's more than one fragrance of Batiste as the smell is quite artificial.

Batiste really is the only one that does all of the things I want it to (degreases, gives volume, disappears quickly with no white patches).

I don't like the talcy smell of the ones I've used though - which Batiste has the freshest/least talcy fragrance?

Klorane

Always used Batiste until I discovered Lidl's own version of it!
Absolutely amazing and actually better than the original.

Definitely agree with a pp about the Superdrug ones, they make my hair crunchy!

Tresseme one is surprisingly good

I quite like the Lee Stafford dry shampoos and find they're similar to Batiste. They're often on offer in Sainsbury's!

The aveda one smells nicer but is otherwise rubbish.

Klorane do my favourite one, much less obvious and more effective than batiste in my view.

I'm trying a bumble and bumble one at the moment which is a powder that you sprinkle in your hair. I'm undecided about it. My hair looks great for far longer but feels horrible.

It doesn't smell at all

I love big sexy hair dry shampoo, the one in the red can. Not cheap but I couldn't get on with the smell of batiste.

Dd swears by the Soap and Glory one

Morrison’s own brand, love the smell and it works really well.

I’ve always hated the way dry shampoo makes my hair feel but have started using Living Proof which is loads better than everything else I’ve tried. It’s expensive so I got the travel size one to see if I liked it.

I usually buy Batiste but Lidl's own brand is really good.

Second this

Definitely adding to the Batiste chorus. They do a range of different scents though, my favourite is the one with the pink floral can. I also like the one that comes out a dark colour as I have dark hair but that's more expensive so I don't bother with it, just make sure I rub and brush it in really well to avoid white patches/streaks! I've tried a few others and none have been anywhere near as effective as Batiste.

Klorane. Complete convert.
