Lazy Day Hair Fix: Lululemon Headbands

So many people are all over dry shampoo these days, but I cannot for the life of me get it to work. I have very dark hair, and none of the ones I've tried do a darn thing for me other than leave a greyish white cast over my hair which looks nasty. I will admit I haven't tried one formulated for dark hair, but I have tried everything from sprays to powder. The powder ones have a better texture in my opinion, since the propellant in the spray ones seem to leave my hair even greasier by the end of the day, but I still can't really make them work. So long story short, I give up on them!

I do not, however, give up on lazy day hair! I want to roll out of bed and go! I have curly-ish hair (it's actually more wavy at this length and the climate right now is super dry, so the curls don't stay) which makes it naturally dry. This in combination with dry skin, means I do not shower every day (gasp!) I will bathe every other day, be it a shower or a bath, but I wash my hair only 2-3 times per week usually. My regular hair washing schedule is Wednesday morning and Saturday morning, with another day in there if I've gotten gross and sweaty or if I've been sick. But I'll admit that by the end of the 3 or 4 day period, my hair is sometimes a little gross at the scalp (somehow I still have dry scalp, even when I have oily hair o.O) So what do I do for that last day or two? I put on a headband to cover my roots! 

I started collecting Lululemon headbands last year because I was looking for something to keep my hair out of my face and the frizzies down while I was skating. I figure skate and there's nothing worse than hair in my face when I'm trying to concentrate on not falling flat on my face. So my cousin who is a Lulu

connoisseur suggested the bangbusters because they have a wider front and will work to keep more of the hair out of my face. I took her suggestion and purchased my first one. I put it on as soon as I walked out of the store. 10 minutes later, I walked back in and bought another one, I loved the first one that much!

Since then, I have added 2 more to my collection, as well as 3 other ones in 2 different styles. I've included a picture of 6 at the bottom of this post. You can check out the video above for the 7th one I have as I'm wearing it in the video. 

I will admit that these headbands are a little pricy. A Lululemon headband will run you anywhere from $12 to $18CAD. Admittedly, you can find cheaper ones at the drugstore, or even the dollar store. BUT I have yet to see a silver lined one or a reversible one at the drugstore. And they're nowhere near as cute!
