Your roots have grown out, but it's still a long time until your next hairdresser's appointment? Then you definitely need this affordable beauty product.

I know that this time will come again at some point. I just know it. But still, even though it's completely predictable, I'm careless and don't always take care of it in time.

The pattern can (sometimes) be applied to some situations in my life. But what I mean now is something very banal. The point is to make an appointment at a hairdressing salon early.

Apart from the fact that the tips would also have to be cut again, what is much more dramatic for me is that the roots are becoming more and more visible. My hair has grown, the light strands have slipped down a level and my darker natural hair color is still shimmering on the top of my head. At least now the alarm bells are ringing for me.

But by then it is usually already too late. Even though I call my hairdresser with confidence and optimism every time, of course I don't get an appointment - not at short notice and certainly not immediately. All slots are taken and there are no gaps.

Well, deep in my heart I actually knew that my way of scheduling appointments brought with it this dilemma and came across as quite naive. As always, I vow to get better. Nevertheless: Until my hair can be saved again, I need a solution to conceal my – in my eyes – unsightly roots. And that means:Dry shampoo with color*.

That's why I think Batiste's dry shampoo with color is so good

When I dig out the large spray bottle from the bathroom cabinet, it's that time again: I can no longer see my roots. I urgently need to go to the hairdresser. But I have to be patient. Unfortunately, it will still be a while until my long-awaited appointment.

And that's why I start spraying diligently. Withwith color from Batiste. There is currently no better product for me that reliably saves my hair until the re-coloring appointment. It conceals and makes my unwanted roots magically disappear.

How does dry shampoo with color work?

Actually, dry shampoo is primarily intended to freshen up your hair without having to wash it. To do this, spray the product specifically onto the roots so that excess oil (sebum) on the scalp and hairlines is absorbed. This is achieved through ingredients such as starch, silica or clay.

The hair then looks fresher and more voluminous, but at the same time it is easier to grip and easier to style.
