LWS happened upon yet another brand of dry shampoo called batiste recently and a few staffers have tried it and reported back their findings.
before moving onto the reviews - just a little back info on batiste: it's a pressurized aerosol dry shampoo in a can (much like hairspray) manufactured in the UK. the batiste packaging looks vaguely south pacific-ish with it's shades of teal, yellow and green - very tropical as perhaps it invokes a carefree vibe even though hair is wearing a washing from days gone by. shake can vigorously, spray evenly over day old hair, let set for a minute then brush thoroughly, preferably with a boar bristle brush and enjoy you some fresher hair.
on the upside, LWS operatives reported the following:
"batiste has a nice fresh scent - not cloying or perfume-y"
"really really easy to use. does not smell toxic or surround you in a toxic cloud despite warnings on the side of the can that the product is extremely flammable - just stay away from matches and fires when spraying i guess"
"ok, it sprays on white, so uh-oh, i feared the george washington powdered wig look but a few quick swipes with a brush (boar bristle of course) took care of that problem and voila! my days old bedhead looks AND feels like washed hair"
so there you have it folks, another dry shampoo to add to your hair arsenal.
batiste, available online through various websites, like www.drugstore.com as well as local drug stores in your immediate area, ranging in price from $5.99 to $7.99 for a 5.05 fluid ounce aerosol can.
