Gym Hair Help? Dry, damaged, sweaty, hair, what to do, what to do...

I have hair problems, thin, wavy, very long (almost to hips), dry and damaged hair.

I am also very far from rich, so expensive salon products are absolutely not an option.

I often hear that you should not wash your hair everyday, it dries it out, especially true if you have damaged hair.

The thing is, I work out every day, and I work out hard! I don't just break a little sweat, I'm totally soaked after a workout, almost like I just jumped out of the shower, my hair is soaked in sweat, so I have to wash it everyday.

On days where I workout in the morning, and do hot yoga in the evening, it will get washed twice in the same day.

I tried a kind of "hair refresher" spray that was suppose to refresh your hair without having to wash it, but my hair is fine and thin so once it gets all sweaty, it just gets completely flat, greasy on top, and totally dried out and frizzy on the ends if I don't wash it, but all the washing is probably only drying it out more, and making it ever harder to manage.

It's a vicious hair cycle!

I won't stop wrking out because of my hair, but can't I have both great hair and a healthy lifestyle?

I want my cake, and I wanna eat it too!!!!

Any suggestions?
