Shower, yes, shampoo, no. Shampooing that often would fry my hair. But I HAVE to shower.
On the "Ask Cathe" where this same question was asked, I posted the following trick that works well for me -- hope some of you might find it helpful!
Here's what I posted:
My (newly dark ;-)) hair is about shoulder length now and layered through the crown with bangs, too, and I've found another method for a quick fix-up that might work for you, too (or anybody else with a similar haircut). If I'm short on time after a workout and my hair's basically clean but damp (or wet underneath, which is usually the case with schweaty me!), this works pretty well to recreate a nice go-anywhere "do". My hair's not naturally curly like yours, Cathe, but I do have a
lot of body and some wave in it, so it will "imprint" curlers pretty quickly. Here's what I do:
First I cover up my hair with a loose shower cap like the ones they give you in hotel rooms and take about a 3-minute quick-rinse shower so I'm not all yukky and stinky. Then I stick about 5 or 6 of those big velcro rollers in the bangs and crown, spritz them with Aveda Volumizing Tonic or Aveda Flax Seed & Aloe spray, and hit 'em with the blow dryer for a minute or two. I usually hold onto each roller as I point the dryer at it so that the rollers don't fly out! And by the way, the Aveda Flax Seed & Aloe is especially good for this because it dries more quickly than the Volumizing Tonic and REALLY imprints the roller shape onto the hair. Next, I grab my trusty medium-sized round brush and give the sides and lower back a quick touch up. Finally, I let the rollers sit for 5 more, while I spruce up (or put on!) my makeup, then take them carefully out and fluff fluff fluff!!!
I can do the whole thing in between 10 and 15 minutes, depending on just how rushed I am.
