True Confessions: You wash your hair how often?

Hi, welcome to the exciting continuation of The Bed Rest Chronicles

Today, we are getting personal.
Today, we are brushing up against that line known as "oversharing."
Today, I confess to you that I only wash my hair ever 5-7 days.

I know what you are thinking:

 It is impossible! I used to think that too. I used to be skeptical. I have been converted.

She is one of those crunchy granola types. While I LOVE granola...especially in yogurt and with berries, I do not make my own twine. I think those who can pull off those skills are amazing. It is just not me. I am a little more in the "easy button" camp.

She must look like a grease ball. Before I jumped on this bandwagon, I washed, dried, and fixed my hair every day. EVERY SINGLE DAY! I have no idea where I found that kind of time. I do not look greasy. I have shared my secret with many, many people who have also jumped on this bandwagon. I actually think my hair looks best on days 3-5.

We can no longer be friends. Try it first. I promise.

Who cares what you look like when you haven't left the house in weeks! On the one hand, this is true. On the other hand, a girl feels just a little better when she is wearing clothes and her hair looks decent.

The secret is cornstarch and a boars hair brush.

Yes, Cornstarch. That little thickener hanging out in the back of your pantry is a miracle worker. It acts as a dry shampoo. I'm serious. Some people spend mega $$$ on dry shampoo and I just raid my pantry.
The Boar's Hair Brush distributes your hairs oils leaving your hair soft, shiny and beautiful.

Let me tell you about it.

• In the morning, on day 2 or 3 (depending on my oily hair situation) I brush my hair and look at my roots. I notice those places where my hair is oily, matted and gross looking. For me, they are usually closest to my face. 
• I dip my fingertips into the small ziplock baggie of cornstarch (I keep this in my bathroom) and begin working it/dusting it onto my roots. I usually go with the roots closest to my face. 
• I work my way around my head a few sections at a time, until I have gone from ear to ear. 
• I let it sit in my hair for a minute or two and then I shake my hair out with my fingers. If I still have a bit of white, I might brush it out. If I notice a spot that is a little oily, I add a bit more cornstarch. 
• After my hair looks alive again, I touch up the style and I am ready to go. 
• For me, this process just takes a couple of minutes...5 minutes tops. 

Note: You are not trying to make your roots white, you do not need to cover every strand. Please do not dump the whole carton of cornstarch on your head. A little bit goes a long, long way.
ALSO, I am blondish. I am not sure how well this tip works on darker hair colors.
