Fun fact: I do not own a comb.
With the exception of when I'm in a salon, my hair hasn't really been combed in years. It has been around three years since I last cared and gave time to my hair during morning preps, but who's counting. I may have already mastered the art of the
Right now, my weekday hair routine goes like this:
1. Wash
2. Towel dry
3. Air dry while tousling hair with fingers
4. Tousle some more while in transit to the office
But when I suddenly need to be somewhere with little time to prep, or when I simply cannot get over waking up with a gorgeous bed hair, I just shower without washing my hair. And that is what we eventually call the second day hair.
It's a win-win scenario, tbh. First, you save time by not having to dry your hair before leaving the house. (Win!) Second, the VOLUME is awesome. (Win!) Third, you let your scalp rest from the chemicals brought by the shampoo and conditioner, letting the natural oils keep your hair healthy. (Win!) Fourth, have I already mentioned the amazing VOLUME? Because if there's one reason to pull off second day hair, it is definitely because of the volume it gives your hair. (Win! Win! Win! Okay, I just really wanted to insert that The Office reference. Please tell me you got that?)

"But it is very humid in Metro Manila, wouldn't the second day hair backfire on me?"
Thank goodness for dry shampoo! I have only been using dry shampoo since 2014, but boy did they give second day hair a chance in the humid Metro Manila.
I have only used two brands: the Dove and Toni & Guy dry shampoos, having much disparity in market price with Dove's costing below 300 pesos and Toni & Guy's costing 990 pesos. That's more than three times in price difference! Let's also take into account that the Dove brand is 5oz while the Toni & Guy one is only 1.53oz.
