But my stylist always compliments my healthy hair, and I think it's mostly from not overwashing!Rowennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09757364614589686606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855154355147753086.post-69680512291420209562011-06-14T06:54:31.978-07:002011-06-14T06:54:31.978-07:00Ein: The hair takes a little while to get used to ...Ein: The hair takes a little while to get used to not being washed so often. I strated with letting it go one day longer between washes for several weekes before I added a day. I have never tried to brush with gauze- I'd love to hear what you make of it if you do.Isishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380497568603304818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855154355147753086.post-23679962782728181742011-06-13T17:00:27.590-07:002011-06-13T17:00:27.590-07:00I wash my hair every other day but I wish I didn&#...I wash my hair every other day but I wish I didn't need to wash it so often. My hair is dry but the roots get greasy looking after the second day. I love these tips though, I think I may try the brush + gauze idea! -^_^- Thanks!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14344826748455567092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855154355147753086.post-38289294862640861572011-06-12T06:26:47.873-07:002011-06-12T06:26:47.873-07:00Emily: I agree, there is a kind of a taboo, though...Emily: I agree, there is a kind of a taboo, though hair can't possibly get dirty in just one day, unless in extreme cicumstances.<br /><br />kitchen: I don't think it sounds gross. :) My hair is usually at it's best 2-4 days after a wash, and then I ususally wash it the fifth. I have very dry hair, though, so it diesn't get greasy ever.Isishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380497568603304818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855154355147753086.post-68929712087448044432011-06-12T01:53:19.706-07:002011-06-12T01:53:19.706-07:00I totally agree wih this, my curls are much more l...I totally agree wih this, my curls are much more lustorous and shiny after the 4th day.

I used to wash my hair once or even twice a day, but once I switched to once every two or three days, my hair has gotten much less dry and much thicker! So its nice to see a compilation of vintage hair advice thats encouraging this.

As an interesting anecdote, my grandmother was a teenager in the forties and she still washes her hair once a week, with a vinegar rinse at the end. She has beautiful, very long hair. Perhaps there's some secret in the "old-fashioned" way of washing hair...Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984385864865301366noreply@blogger.com
