I used to just wash my hair once a week. Maybe, if I was lucky, I'd go 8 or 9 days. Crazy right?!
Although, ever since I started going to Orange Theory 4-6 days a week, that has changed. I get so sweaty at those workouts, some days I am literally dripping sweat. My head gets soaked, and disgusting. For months I have had to wash my hair about every 3 days because it gets so gross from all the sweat. I've been trying to figure out how to prolong my blowout by using different pony tails, sweat bands, etc. And I think I've finally figured out what works best for me.
I have naturally really curly hair, so I use a curling wand to re-define my curls so my hair isn't as crazy, so it takes some time to wash, dry, and style. I definitely do not want to do that more than twice a week due to time, and frying my hair.
- Use a hair tie that will not crease your hair. I like these and these.
- Put your hair in a high, loose pony tail. If your hair is slicked back too tight it will cause your head to sweat more. This method lets your hair breath a little.
- As soon as you finish working out take your hair out of the ponytail and immediately brush through it. Do not let your hair dry in your wet ponytail.
- Next, grab a hair dryer, and lightly blow cool air on your wet hair until it starts to dry.
- Use more dry shampoo if needed, then style it as you normally would!
