Oh Sh*t Beauty Disasters Fixed

Jessica Simpson Ashlee Simpson

The disaster: Oily hair with no time to shower

The scenario: A string of late nights and early mornings means you’ve had no time to wash your hair, and like Jessica over there, it’s starting to go beyond “grunge” and into plain ol’ “greasy.”

What to do: Meet your new best friend: dry shampoo. Sprinkle or spray some on your roots and massage it in and watch the grease disappear (try Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo, $24). If you’re out of that you can use baby powder, just make sure to really work it in so you don’t have ghostly white roots.

And if you’re out of both those things? Then make the grease look intentional by slicking all of your hair back into a sleek ponytail — and maybe spritz some perfume over it to cover the smell. Or just add a hat like Ashlee Simpson (maybe she should have loaned it to Jessica).
