Time for some real talk. How often do you wash your hair?

I recently cut back on washing my hair only two or so days a week and it’s been a total game changer. Since I’m washing and styling it less often, I’ve found myself putting more effort in during those two wash days a week which means day to day I look way more pulled together with styled (and then touched up) hair vs. the air dried look I went for when I was washing it on a daily basis. Additionally, my hair isso much happierwithout drying it out with too much shampoo and hot water – I swear, it’s never felt healthier!

My latest hair routine has been washing it on Wednesdays and Sundays after getting sweaty while horseback riding. I’ll typically let it air dry overnight to avoid the heat of the blow dryer and then usemy BeachWaver curling wandto smooth things out with messy waves in the morning (Aveda’s Damage Remedyis my go to heat protectant andDrybar’s Sheriff hairsprayis the best for locking in curls without any crunch or stiff feeling). Throughout the week I’ll do a quick curling wand touch up if needed and refresh my roots withBastise dry shampooas needed to help extend the life of my wash (and if you find yourself using a lot of dry shampoo, washing your hair witha clarifying shampoocan really help with build up to get hair squeaky clean).

And that’s it! So easy. It’s been so nice to spend less time dealing with my day every day and I can’t believe it took methislong to realize what a difference fewer washes would make in my beauty routine.
