I shower 2-3 times a week in the middle(-ish) of the day.
Showers make me sleepy so can’t do early mornings. I have very long, straight, and thick hair that takes hours to air dry, and refuse to use blow dryers, so night is right out else I end up with a really shit bed-head curl situation…
The sweet spot is mid-morning or around lunch, when I get sleepy anyway, given an hour to half-dry, then put up in a french clip bun, so when I take it down for the evening, it has a nice open curl. I never use the pretty, but it makes me feel very pretty at night.
Yeah, and I’ve also tried stuff like conditioner washing (co-wash), mostly when I did fun dye colors, to preserve the color. But my threshold to feel gross is honestly low enough that my hair feeling nasty is my shower habit trigger, else I simply wont do any self-care. So while it’s technically an option, it’s not one that works with my self. :D

You ever considered not washing your hair every shower?
