Jennifer Aniston's Unexpected Gym Secret: Skipping Hair Washes!

Jennifer Aniston made the unusual move of revealing a dirty habit of hers, and it's not smoking; seen this summer in an ad for Smartwater

JENNIFER ANISTON'S DIRTY SECRET EXPOSED!

The beloved star of Friends, Jennifer Aniston, has just spilled the tea on a shocking habit that's left fans gasping in surprise. In a recent interview with ET online, Jen revealed that she's guilty of neglecting one of her most prized possessions: her hair. Yes, you read that right - after hitting the gym, this glamorous blonde often skips washing her locks altogether!

But don't worry, it's not because she's too lazy to shower (although we wouldn't blame her if she was). According to Jen, she believes washing her hair every day is a no-go, citing that it strips her natural oils and leads to dryness. Instead, she relies on a trusty sidekick: dry shampoo! Specifically, she swears by LolaVie's Powder Perfect Dry Shampoo ($25), which she claims gives her hair "a little life" and adds volume.

However, Jen warned fans of dry shampoo to be cautious not to overdo it - too much can lead to a greasy mess and an unflattering powdery film on your locks. Uh-oh, sounds like a bad hair day waiting to happen!

But that's not all the juicy gossip we got from Jen's chat with ET online. The 56-year-old actress also opened up about her love for vintage fashion - specifically, the fabulous '90s style. While she's thrilled to see narrow sunglasses and thin eyebrows making a comeback, she's less than impressed by these revivals. "I celebrate the '90s coming back," she said with a wink. "Except for those narrow sunglasses and the really thin eyebrows."

We can't help but wonder what Jen's thoughts are on other retro trends that have made their way back into fashion - like plaid pants or choker necklaces? Perhaps we'll get more insight from her in the future.

The Hollywood favorite does not wash her hair after a sweaty workout at the gym, she said. The Friends star has admitted she tries to avoid washing her hair too often because it's 'not good' to do it 'every day' so she relies on a dry shampoo to freshen up her locks after her workouts

But what really got us hooked was when Jen dished about her close friendship with Jason Bateman's family. The actress has been known to gift clothes to his daughters, Francesca (18) and Maple (13), who she affectionately calls "almost like my nieces." According to Jason himself, "She's the first one to call or text about big dates in the girls' lives... She has questions about boyfriends."

Jen's relationship with the Bateman family is almost too good to be true. We can only imagine how surreal it must be for Francesca and Maple to receive advice from their favorite actress on boys, relationships, and life in general.

With her busy schedule of filming and promoting her brand, LolaVie (which offers a range of natural hair care products), Jen is proving that she's more than just a Hollywood star - she's a devoted friend and mentor. Who knew being fabulous was also about being kind and compassionate?

'I usually will use it [dry shampoo] after workouts. It's good not to wash your hair every day and let your natural oils sort of do their thing,' she told ET online. 'I use it just to sort of have a good refresh. It also gives a little life back to it. It gives a little height'

There you have it, folks! It looks like Jennifer Aniston is still the ultimate girl next door we all love and admire. Now if only she'd spill some tea on her love life...
