Dirty Hair

I have delicate hair and I put nasty things on it like dye and swimming pool water. I compensate by avoiding heat styling and washing it only every three days. Day three styling is often a challenge. I’ve learned to love dry shampoo and now I’ve got a new trick for concealing greasy roots: the scarf.


Scarf, some department store in the 90’s. Cardigan, Rodarte for Target. Shirt, Romeo + Juliet Couture. Belt, thrifted. Pants, Forever 21. Booties, Madden Girl. Bag, Deux Lux. Sunnies, Girl Props.


A French braid was already one of my go-to hair styles for third day hair. Kansas Couture inspired me to add a scarf to conceal my roots and add a bit of polish to the look. I usually struggle with scarves slipping off my head, but the tucked up braid helped keep it in place.



Hooray – another scarf technique to add to my repertoire.
