I end up having to shampoo and condition every day, otherwise my hair just gets so very greasy and unmanageable and...yeah. Not very fun at all.

Most of the time I end up just doing that plus just brushing out my hair. Just enough to make sure that my hair is neat and not trying to go every which way. Though if I weren't so lazy, I'd go out to get it cut - I think that's more than overdue, especially with summer coming. Hmm.

(Might be obvious I'm not all that concerned about my hair. As long as it's clean and relatively combed out, I'm good.)

I really should wash my hair every day, as it gets kinda greasy if I don't. If it's been recently cut, I can normally go for every other day, but as soon as it starts showing any signs of length, out come the shampoo and the conditioner in a double-whammy attack.

Apart from that, though, I don't really do anything on a major scale. There was a period when I was about 10 where I put gel/wax in, but I could never find a consistent style to go with, and I ended up looking kinda ridiculous. So, apart from drying it with a towel and making sure that it doesn't stick out over my ears, I just let my hair go completely au natural!

My hair gets so greasy, I have to wash it nearly EVERY DAY.

Also, I often have to brush and comb often. (Yeah, it's really fiddly)

Back in my school days I would style my hair daily. I cared very much how it looked, so I took great care of it. I still take good care of it now, but I don't style everyday anymore. My style now is just a clean buzzed look. Not bald, but very short.

I take care of my hair by washing it daily or every other day. Today I haven't taken a shower.

I used to use something called HairPlay which I actually really really liked because it always styled my hair exactly the way I wanted it. This was a while ago and I've since stopped using it (or any stylizer) because I didn't like that I relied on third-party applications to look good. But now I've got a job where I need to look somewhat presentable so I use what I found in the bathroom, something called Sebastian Texturizer. It's not bad either. I don't use it every day though, I honestly just apply it when I'm changing to get ready for work.

I don't wash my hair less than every other day. It all depends on if I want to shower.

I don't think I condition.. I can't remember if my shampoo is an all-in-one though.

It's been pretty sporadic as of late. I used to get a haircut every few months or so, but 6 months ago I got the genius idea of shaving my head, kept the look for about 2 months and have been growing it back since then. Now it's actually slightly longer than I like it so I'm due for a haircut. It actually looks pretty bad, I should get on that.

Yeah it's important enough. Hair I think is one of the most telling features of someone. If someone doesn't style it a certain way then that's fine, they may just not be into that sort of stuff and want to keep it au-naturel. But if they always have a greasy head, that's not something I respect much. I try to look my best and that means at least having showered when I'm going somewhere.

My hair is...precious.

-I don't use any sort of gel, spray, or any sort of thing. I just... expensive shampoo and use expensive conditioner for the best results.

-I use nothing to style my hair besides.....a hair brush. I had the luck to be born with hair that naturally looks shiny and glossy without any need for...products.

-How often? Every day. In my house, hygiene is of utter importance.

-Yes, I condition.

-How often I get a haircut...er, twice a year at most.

-Why yes, the upkeep of my hair is important to me.

How do you take care of you hair?
I wash it every day, just keep it in check through out the day to make sure it isn't standing on end.

What do you use to style your hair, if you choose to do so?
I just use some styling wax that I have always had.

How often do you shampoo?
Every day.

Do you condition?
Yes or my hair turns to straw after 2 days.

How often do you get a haircut?
Every couple of months.

I sound so... proud of my hair in those. Haha.

I'm fairly practical. My hair gets in the way, but I need it long otherwise it poofs out like crazy. So, I wash it, dry it (Mum recently started getting me to use a hair-dryer, before that I dried it naturally) brush/comb it, and put it up in 2 plaits. That's it.

I wash my hair daily and have it cut every...six weeks or so. I've started getting it cut so that I don't even really have to do anything to it, it's short enough that it looks good without having to use gel or even really comb it that much. I use a dry scalp shampoo and conditioner, since my scalp gets horribly itchy if I don't use both.

I can't really be bothered to obsess over my hair like a lot of people do. :/
