I’m back on shampoo.
I know, I know.
It’s weird having such clean hair.
But with the move and the monthlong period of being a nomad, and all the newness coming at me (I’m not good at “new” even when I ask for it), something was bound give.
It wasn’t going to be my carnivorous diet, for dang sure.
It also turns out that hard water + unwashed hair equals a sticky mess. (Seriously. It was gross.)
So what gave was the “no washing with shampoo” routine.
Even with a crunchy seaweed-based shampoo, I don’t love how my hair feels. It’s so dry and sad.
Eventually, as I settle in, I’ll figure out what I want to do next. I can get a filtered showerhead, or rinse my hair with vinegar to counteract the minerals, or stick with shampoo but add a pH-balancing scalp treatment.
In the meantime, I’m a normal-haired person again.
