Strange how things can work. I've usually washed my hair every third day and sometimes every other day. I've tried to stretch washes but never with any success, until now ...
Since the beginning of September I've been home from work due to "occupational burnout". The upside to this was that I started to neglect my hair. I didn't have the need to wash it to look good for others, since I spent most time at home by myself. First I perhaps washed my hair twice a week, then once a week, and today I realised I haven't washed my hair for 12 days and... it looks and feels great! Not greasy at all!
Another benefit is that I haven't experienced the usual "fall fall", meaning that usually on every autumn I have lost more hairs than usual. Not so this year.
So... not sure what I want to say other than that stretching washes really work, and it might be easier if one get some time "away from society". :o

Ps. On my profile picture I had just cut my hair back from BSL'ish to even things up since I was growing out my bangs and they finally was long enough to touch my shoulders. I'm in the "6 Month No Trimming Challenge (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showthread.php?t=137977)" and haven't cut my hair since the end of June, so it's grown quite a bit since then.
