Is your SPF-infused face moisturiser as effective as your sunscreen?

Aligning your hair wash days to the major events you have planned during the week is a given, it’s simple girl math. But the dilemma arises when you have multiple events back-to-back where a fresh wash isn’t feasible and greasy hair isn’t a style statement you want to make either—especially during the festivities. You don’t need us to tell you that second or third day hair is not fun to deal with. Thanks to the excessive sebum production in the scalp, your hair tends to look streaky, flat, and lifeless. Basically, it’s everything a freshly done blowout isn’t.
From makeup to clothes, the festivities require you to get your glam on—but how can you when your hair is weighing you down? There are multiple ways in which you can make your third-hair work during the festivities.
Here are a few hair care tips you should keep in mind when styling between washes.

First things first, invest in dry shampoo. While it’s a temporary fix, dry shampoo helps soak the excess oil, giving your scalp an almost fresh start. One of the best ways to do this is to spray the hair care product on your roots, ruffle your fingers through your hair, and then use a quick blow dry on the roots to lift them.
Another way to revive your third-day hair is to use micellar water on the front of your hair. The particles present in the micellar water help soak up the oil. All you have to do is add a little micellar water in a spray bottle and spritz it all over your roots. Once the hair is damp, simply use a blow drier and a round brush or paddle brush to give yourself a quick dry.
If you’re looking to prolong the period between your hair washes, then the leave-in conditioner hack is for you. Simply dampen the lengths of your hair (midway) and apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner to it. Use a blow dryer and a round brush to dry the hair—the heat paired with the brush will help lift the roots and create volume, leaving you with refreshed, soft, and smooth hair.
Several hairstyles hold well with second and third-day hair. If you’re looking to amp up your style during the festivities without washing your hair every day, we’ve got you covered. Here are some hairstyles worth giving a try:
Braids come in different styles and sizes, and that’s what makes them the perfect choice for third-day hair. From boxer braids and fishtail to Dutch and French, feel free to take your pick from an array of braided styles. You can even add flowers to dress it up during this season.
A messy bun is a great way to work your third-day hair during the festivities. If you want, feel free to pair the bun with a couple of braids or accessories that match your celebratory outfits, to add that trendy touch.
A ponytail is often a quick go-to for greasy third-day hair. It can, however, be a little too boring, especially for the festivities. Play around with your ponytail style by adding cool new factors to it—braids, bubbles, and accessories, will elevate this once-basic hairstyle.
