What a week for unwashed hair.

On Thursday we wrote about the growing trend of people not washing their hair. The next day we read at Green Daily that unwashed hair actually cleans the air- it scrubs ozone from the atmosphere around your head. Unwashed hair sucks up seven times more ozone than freshly washed, there’s no word on how hair powered ‘doos do but I’d guess somewhere in between.

Either way, it’s a good excuse to pull out anytime you find yourself a few days past your last shower. “Hey, I’m just trying the save the world here. Think Globally, don’t wash my hair Locally”.
