  7. I've just found your blog, I keep seeing batiste dry shampoo mentioned, I will have to give it a try! As for shampoo and conditioner, I was given a set of Biolage Matrix for Christmas, and it's the best shampoo I've ever tried, I'd definitely recommend it! I've only been using it for a week so I'm not sure about the build up of it.
    Happy New Year!

  8. Hello and welcome! Batiste is definitely worth a try, I was sceptical at first but since I took the plunge, it's quickly become a staple product. I've not tried Biolage before, I'll have to check them out :) Thank you and happy new year to you too! xxx
