At times, it feels like I’m spending my morning, noon and night at the gym, and then in the shower. Oh wait. I am.
Once in a while, when it’s that special release time when fitness instructors like me end up teaching or practicing up to twice the number of our regular classes, we’ll find ourselves living in our showers. On one particular day when I had already had 2 showers, and it was only 2pm, I was given a fabulous tip by my hairdresser. She looked at me as though I had two heads when I told her I already had two showers, and would likely have a third before the day was over. She asked me if there was any possibility that I not have so many showers and I exclaimed that I become drenched in sweat, and unfortunately, that’s not an option. She asked me if I also used the ol’ 2in1 shampoo and conditioner. I told her unfortunately, I do, but only at lunchtime. She shook her head. After listening to me tell my shower practices, she told me to try something different next time. She said, just rinse the sweat out, and then add conditioner. Bypass the shampoo completely. It was my turn to look at her like she had 2 heads. She asked me to please promise to try it the next time. Well, what could I do but promise to try. So I did that night.
Well, hallulujah – why didn’t someone tell me that sooner? It works like a charm. Sweat will rinse out of your hair easily – there is no need to strip your hair some more when you’ve already done it once already that day. I can already tell the difference and my hair feels so much better!
Now, if only I can get the stink out of my clothes. More about that another time.
