Idioms

co-wash

co-wash

To wash one's hair using only conditioner (rather than shampoo and conditioner). "Co" is short for "conditioner." Ladies with thick, curly hair have taken to co-washing their tresses, to avoid stripping their hair of natural oils. During softball season, I often co-wash my hair after practice to avoid drying it out with shampoo every day. I do wash my hair with shampoo, but my hair is coarse, and I'm not supposed to wash it more than once a week. So if I need to wash it more than that, then I co-wash.
