To HATE washing my hair?

I can't be the only one surely.
I just cannot bare washing my hair.
I'll do absolutely anything to put off doing it. Dry shampoo, messy bun, thick headband.
Why is it such a ball ache?
Just gone 9 days and finally washed it.
It's blonde and frizzy so never looks greasy, doesn't ever smell due to the dry shampoo.
In fact it looks much better, glossier and less frizzy after about 5 days.
It's so thick and if I go to bed with it damp then it will still be damp at lunch time the next day.
If I cut it short then I hate it even more as I have to wash it more frequently as I can't tie it back.
Please tell me I'm not the only one?

I wash mine in the shower every morning One shampoo No conditioner It's a fine , chin length bob , and I can shower , wash hair , dry myself , dress , and dry my hair ( even out a dab of make up on ) in less than half an hour I couldn't face the day without a hair wash , but my hair is easy going
Wow! All that in just 30 minutes. Shock In that time I have only had a shower, and not got dressed yet. I must be a really slow person Confused.

I could have written your OP! It's so bloody hot on my neck, but it just gets matted if I put it up. I relate to how long it takes to dry too- if I were to follow the Curly Girl method, I'd just have damp hair all day. It frizzes up at the front especially if there's a hint of moisture, so I find myself straightening the fringe and sides a lot, which only compounds the heat damage and tendency to frizz.

Bane of my life.
