f you've been catching flak
from your significant other
or family for not washing your
hair every day, then you're not
the only one—and the truth is,
youre not supposed to!
times my family and boyfriend
have been grossed out by the
fact that I only wash my hair
maybe two or three times
a week. Being completely
honest, up until recently I was
one of those people who did
wash their hair every night
before I went to bed, and I
was completely baffled when
other people told me that they
didn’t. | mean, how could they
get greasy?
Then a friend of mine told
having issues with breakage

: Number one is that you can

: Organic shampoos don’t

: The trouble is they can be
expensive, and a lot of people

Solution two is that you

The last solution, and
: the one that I personally

: and it will soak up the oils,
: allowing you to brush it away.
: This removes the excess oils,
: but will leave the majority
so you can reap the benefits.
: Most dry shampoos also have
: conditioners in them as well,
: making your mane easier to

: solution if you have naturally
: fine hair, because it will
: actually thicken it slightly and
: give it texture, which will allow
: it to hold a style for longer.
: Don’t like aerosols? That’s
: totally fine, just take a large
: powder brush and dab loose
: powder into your roots. This
: will do the exact same thing;
: don’t forget to brush it out,
: though!
So then, how do you
: know when to wash your hair?
: Eventually you'll be able to
: feel it. Instead of greasy, look
: out for when your hair feels
: too stiff. Generally that’s a
: good indication that there’s
: either too much product in it,
: in the case of if you're using
: a dry shampoo, or that it’s
accumulating too much oil.

you need in the morning, and

your day is done, ensuring that
you have a healthy, homemade
meal to fuel that big ol’ brain of
yours.
Soak the pinto beans for
approximately two days in the
fridge.
Ina large skillet or frying
pan, heat oil and add onions.
Cook onions for approximately
eight minutes, stirring
occasionally. You'll be able to
tell you’ve cooked them long
enough when they start to
brown slightly.
Add chilli powder and
garlic, stirring constantly until
you really begin to smell the
garlic. It shouldn't take very
long, less than a minute. Just
make sure it’s all mixed in
meatless!
Remove from heat before
: stirring in the vinegar. Scrape
: any browned bits off the side
: and bottom, making sure that
: they stay with the onions for
: when you transfer them to the
: slow cooker.
Spray the slow cooker’s
basin with cooking spray.

Take the pinto beans out

: then rinse them under cold
: water before putting them in

: stir until everything is evenly
: mixed.
Layer the onion on top of
: the veggies and beans already

: mix them. Having the beans

A hair-raising tale!
» Knowing when to wash your hair, and when to leave it the heck alone!

f you've been catching flak
from your significant other
or family for not washing your
hair every day, then you're not
the only one—and the truth is,
youre not supposed to!
times my family and boyfriend
have been grossed out by the
fact that I only wash my hair
maybe two or three times
a week. Being completely
honest, up until recently I was
one of those people who did
wash their hair every night
before I went to bed, and I
was completely baffled when
other people told me that they
didn’t. | mean, how could they
get greasy?
Then a friend of mine told
having issues with breakage
: consider the fact that you’re
: washing all the essential oils
: out of it. Essential oils are the
: good kinds of oils, the stuff
I can’t count the number of : that keeps your hair shiny and
: healthy looking. Generally
: shampoos have sulphates
: in them, which break down
: oil and wash it away. Used
: too much, the sulphates will
: actually start breaking down
: the oils your hair needs to
: keep itself strong, resulting in
: breakage, and in some cases,
: hair loss.
: can’t wash your hair every day
manage to do that? Wouldn't it | without damaging it, but it
: looks greasy if you leave it,
: even for one night.
