Breaking news: Not all moms use dry shampoo.
Some of us (gasp!) actually wash our hair every day! I know, it’s madness, right?
As much as I would love to join the secret club of you moms who can somehow go days upon days without turning into grease buckets, I just can’t. Thanks to some unlucky genetics, my hair gets greasy approximately 13 hours after I wash it and no amount of dry shampoo can touch that business. Before you come at me with your apple cider vinegar nonsense, let me just assure you it’s just the way my hair is — my daughters have it too, so I have some visible proof that some of us are just gross, greasy, and unlucky in life.
That's not to say I haven't tried to join you
It will never be for me
I will never get to join in the cool-mom group of dry-shampoo jokes or know what it's like to have curls that last for days or know that doing my hair is actually worth the effort because it won't explode with grease later that day. And that's sad.
So, let’s stop making mom life synonymous with dry shampoo, because I’m feeling just a tad hurt over the fact that while you’re out there all living your best dry shampoo lives, I’m stuck washing my hair.
Again.
