Whether we like to admit it or not, most of us have those odd days when we know we really should wash our hair but for one reason or another, we just can’t face the hassle. That is when dry shampoo really does come in handy. There are a few on the market now but my favourite is still Batiste Original Dry Shampoo.

The key is not to spay too close to your head or in one area for too long. I find spraying a little, rubbing it in and then spraying a little more is a better tactic rather than just spraying lots all in one go. That is when you get the dreaded ’white hair’ problem, which none of us want (especially if you have dark hair!). It is also good for providing extra volume to fine hair.

Because I have dark hair, I have tried the one which is specifically for brown hair, but I must admit – I wasn’t a fan. It has some brown dye and I didn’t really like this as I kept thinking, “what would happen if it rains??”

I feel this is a great product just to have there for those times you need it. They also do a miniature version which is great for weekends away or even holidays.

So no need to just tie your hair up when you are being a little on the lazy side…. no one has to know
