let's talk about how i haven't washed my hair in six days.

GO WASH YOUR HAIR.

i sometimes wish i could go more than 2 days without washing my hair.

I WAS TRYING TO MAKE IT GREASY SO IT DOESN'T GET GREASY SO FAST OKAY?

Yes, I realise that only makes sense in my head, but WHATEVS.

"The answer to how to stop, prevent, avoid, get rid of and even perhaps cure greasy hair is to wash it as often as necessary to keep it clean and in good condition. Too-frequent washing can encourage the production of grease."

I swear this is why. I swear it. I am not just really dirty. Ish.

i know nikki. its ok. i understand you.

*sigh* thank you tova. I just really needed to back myself up before everyone though i was disgusting.

Attention Internets: I am now going to shower!!!!

AND SHAVE MY LEGS! HYGIENE TWO FOR ONE!

I will keep you all informed on the grease level of my hair later. I am sure you will all wait with baited breath.

I am telling you people, if you can tough it out, I think it helps heaps to go without washing it.

I guess we should also keep in mind I have VERY curly hair and it tends to be very dry when I wash it all the time. I think straight haired folks might be a in different boat.

My hair is pretty curly too but I still have to wash it every few days. I can usually go about three days between washings, but by the third day I'm practically scratching holes into my scalp. ITS AWFUL.

HOW DO YOU DO IT, NIKKI???? TEACH ME.

CELISSE: Come to Canada. I will take you under my wing and teach you. I will treat your scalp with tender love and care.

ALL FROM THE GOODNESS OF MY HEART!

Do you straighten your hair or go curly face? When I wear my hair curly lots, I only ever shampoo it every few days, but condition every day.

It depends how I'm feeling. When I was working, I would usually wear it straight. But if I wasn't feeling particularly bothered, I'd wear it curly. It tends to stay (or at least look) less greasy when I wear it curly sooooo if I'm feeling lazy...... hahaha

But yeah. I wash and condition every time. Sometimes if my hair is extra greasy, I'll just use a clarifying shampoo and no conditioner, but that's not good for everyone. My hair is very disciplined.

Bizzy, my hair is exactly the same!! My curls are so much better if I haven't just washed my hair. Or else mine does the exact same. And the curls don't stick together--- they get all frizzy and crazy and in your face.

Um, just so you guys know, I am pretty awesome right now. Shaved my legs, got myself all lotioned up, clean hair finally, exfoliated and the whole bit.

WHO WANTS SOME SEXING? [kidding, kidding, but we should all take a moment to celebrate my good hygiene.]

I LOVE PRODUCTIVE SHOWERS.

how does it help heaps to not wash your hair for a week? besides saving 10 cents on soap and water that is. because then you can finally buy that newspaper you've been saving up for... if it were 1950!

yes skanko, you missed a sexing. artschooled likes to look down little kids' pants and send boys and girls to different sides of the room according to content.

Six days is pretty impressive. I've been trying to stretch out my hair washing longer and longer, but it's hard in the summer when I work out and get super sweaty. Sometimes I'll just rinse it, though. That seems to help too.

skanko, you will have to ask artschooled. she is doing the sexing. i didn't finish high sckewl so i don't get to do fancy werks.
