我每周只洗一次头,但我的头发看起来好极了

I've always loved the look of second-day hair-perfectly-undone, slightly tousled waves like you just rolled out of bed. To achieve the style without waiting 48 hours, I used to wash my hair every night, curl it, then use a flat iron to transform the curls into waves that looked naturally lived-in. I loved the end result, but the process was time-consuming-and worse, it was damaging my hair. To top it off, I had oily roots, which meant my "second-day" look actually needed to be recreated every day. I needed a change.

我喜欢洗完头后第二天的样子--完美无瑕、有点儿卷，就像刚刚起床的样子。以前，为了不必等待48小时就能达到这种效果，我每晚都会洗头，卷头，然后再用夹板将头发卷成波浪卷，这样就十分自然了。我喜欢最终的效果，但这一过程太耗时了--更糟糕的是，我的头发因此受损了。除此之外，我头发很油，所以想要拥有"第二天"的完美头发，我必须每天洗头。我需要做出改变了。

About a year ago, I decided to wash my hair less often. I'd recently splurged on balayage highlights, and I was eager to make the color last. My goal was to eventually go a week in between washes, but I started gradually, cutting back one day at a time. And I'm not going to lie: during those first few weeks, my hair felt like an oil slick, and I was constantly tempted to shampoo it. But I resisted, and as time went on, my strands adapted to the new routine.

大约一年前，我决定不再那么频繁的洗头了。最近，我花钱染了头发，那时候我太渴望自己的发色能保持下去了。我的最终目标就是一周只洗一次头，但我开展的很慢，每次洗头时都只减少一天。我不会撒谎的：前几周的时候，我的头发太油了，我总想去洗。但我抵制了洗头的欲望，随着时间的流逝，我的头发开始适应了新的洗头模式。

Now, I can honestly say that weekly washing transformed my hair, and I'll never go back to washing it daily. Here's how I make my once-a-week shampoo look fresh for a full seven days.

诚实的说，我现在每周只洗一次头，再也不会每天都洗了。下面我将介绍如何每周只洗一次头却能保持一整周不油腻。

Every seven days, that wash needs to be thorough and effective. So once a week, I lather, rinse, and repeat with a clarifying shampoo and conditioner. My favorite are Hask Charcoal Clarifying Shampoo ($6; ) and Hask Charcoal Clarifying Conditioner ($6; ). After, I apply my one major product splurge: Christophe Robin Regenerating Mask With Rare Prickly Pear Seed Oil ($71; ). It's pricey, but leaves my hair noticeably soft and sMooth for days on end. If I'm trying to save money, I'll use Neutrogena Triple Moisture Professional Deep Recovery Mask ($9; ) instead. It's significantly cheaper, but still hydrating.

每七天才洗一次头，因此必须洗的彻底、有效。所以每周我都会揉出泡沫、冲洗，然后用清爽洗发水和护发素再洗一遍。我最喜欢的产品是Hask Charcoal清爽洗发水（网站售卖6美元）和Hask Charcoal 清爽护发素（网站售卖6美元）。之后，我会使用最贵的一个产品：Christophe Robin Regenerating Mask With Rare Prickly Pear Seed Oil（网站售卖71美元）。价格很高，但用过之后，头发会连续几天保持柔顺。如果我在省钱，那我就会用Neutrogena Triple Moisture Professional Deep Recovery Mask（网站售卖9美元）。这款发膜便宜很多，但也十分保湿。

After my weekly wash, I blow dry and curl my hair, always dividing it into two layers and curling away from my face, leaving the last half inch off the wand for a natural finish.

每周洗完后，我都会吹头发、卷头发。通常我会分成两层，从靠脸的地方开始卷，留最后半寸自然卷曲。
