How do you manage super oily hair during pregnancy??

Hey y'all. I have oily hair naturally, right? Well since I've been pregnant, I have to wash my hair twice a day just so that it stays dry and oil free. I'm a server and I feel that my hair affects my tips after a few hours because I think it makes me look dirty. Any advice??

I used to have oily hair as a teenager, and would wash it all the time because I was embarrassed. If you wash it less, you will actually be less oily. I wash my hair once a week now (mostly because I have no energy with a toddler) and my hair isn’t even oily when I wash it. It’s your body balancing your skin. You strip oils from your skin and hair, it creates more. I’d try going to every other day for a while and just wearing your hair in a tight bun. Sometimes I’d use a little gel when putting my hair up, so that would kind of hide the oil.

I use a natural dry shampoo. In a little container put a table spoon of cornstarch and a tea spoon of cinnamon (I use cinnamon because my hair is kind of red) I apply it to my hair using a blush brush.
I saw it in YouTube.

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
