I have very dry hair that actually gets drier rather than greasy if I don't wash frequently and add moisture to it.
Since I live in a hot country (well, not so hot at the moment, but gets very hot in summer), I find my head sweats a lot when I exercise. It's especially noticeable when I cycle in the summer and my hair, which is only about chin length at the moment, gets soaked with sweat under my helmet. If I can bear to not wash it, and just spread the sweat through it with my hands, scrunch it back into shape, and leave it to dry, it's much more soft and silky and looks "healthier" once it's dried.
What is it about sweat that my hair likes so much?
