I take great pride in taking care of my hair. Its dark, thick, heavy, prone to spilt ends and pretty much high maintenance but i love pampering my hair with hair mask, hair oils and such. I try to go a few days in between washing my hair. Number 1: my hair is really long and its such a burden to wash. Number 2: it gives me time to let the natural oils in my hair build so my hair doesn't dry out.
KL where i live is hot, humid and everything tropical. The minute you step out of the house, you will sweat! Its crazy! Even after a shower, while putting clothes on, you will sweat! I have been a dry shampoo fan for years but it was during my summer break when I was back home, I realised that i needed dry shampoo in my life permanently (if i was going to live in KL). The story is...our water heater broke. My house is over 30 years old, so it was still using the old water system and needed to be re-wired <- i dont know what was the deal! its taking forever to fix and when i mean forever, it is still not fixed!!!!!!!!! im going back in a month, really not looking forward to it!!! This also happened simultaneously when KL was having water shortage, certain suburbs in KL didnt have water for days, including mine! (sorry, still very bitter about the no water, no hot water and uncomfortable hot weather i went through) /bitter rant ends.
I depended on dry shampoo to make my hair look presentable. This thing was a life saver. I finished two big cans within two months. It frustrates me that the Malaysian market does not sell dry shampoo. I particularly liked Bastiste Dry Shampoo because of the smell. My favourite is tropical - it smells heavenly of coconut and vanilla.
How I Use It:
1. After second day hair, i would shake the can vigorously and lightly spray on my hair. I say lightly because there will be white residue which is the powder and it can get every where on your hair if not careful.
2. After that I would gently go through my hair and dust off whatever white residue is left and brush my hair like normal to evenly distribute the powder.
3. Style my hair. Usually in a ponytail or side braid.
It delays shampooing hair but doesn't replace shampoo. Pretty much from this review you can tell, I love this product! It is convenience and easy to use. It doesn't enhance my greasiness, oily or weighted down. I have a small travel size can in my handbag at all time for emergencies. I have to admit that it does make my hair little dull but I dont mind because i know eventually my hair will get washed.
You can get your Bastiste Dry Shampoo 400ml at Priceline for AUD15.95
