This one’s great for the people whose woes include an oily scalp, and it definitely succeeds in keeping your hair clean for at least three-four hours. We’ve heard that it works better on finer hair than thicker textures, and does a good job of adding temporary shine and bounce to your mane.

Perhaps the most popular dry shampoo in the world, Batiste comes in a bunch of variants, including Original, Cherry and Coloured {this one aims to both clean and maintain colour}.

Lasts us about six hours before the oiliness inevitably comes creeping back.
