I’ve been asked how do I protect myself/my hair when I have to go outside. Do I wash my hair daily now or whenever I have to go outside? Normally, pre-pandemic, I would wash my hair once a week. 2-3 times a week during the summer or whenever I swam in a pool. Now that we’re living during the Covid-19 pandemic, the first several months I kept up my regular schedule because I didn’t go out. After my state opened up a bit and work resumed, I initially wrapped my hair completely in cloth and then sprayed it with a rubbing alcohol and water mix. Alcohol is very drying! So by the end of March I alternated wrapping completely and washing. That is, on the days I did not wrap my hair when going out, I would wash it when I got home. Along with other Covid-19 precautions! Remember to practice social distancing and washing your hands often. Also, wear a mask and avoid touching your face once you leave home.
