London: Singer Paloma Faith says she hates washing her hair.

The "Picking up the pieces" hitmaker, who is pregnant with her first child, wishes her hair could clean itself because she can't bear standing under the shower dousing her hair with shampoo and water, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I wish hair would just wash itself. It's such a drag having to wash it every other day. I can't stand it," she tweeted.

Faith announced that she and her long-term boyfriend Leyman Lahcine were expecting a baby last month.

"I am so delighted to tell you I am going to take a short while off to have a baby. I have spent my whole life wanting to be a mother and now the time has come for me to so I feel so lucky," Faith had announced.

And, although she's used to her body and fashion sense being criticised in the public eye, Faith has begged her fans not to comment on her pregnancy physique as she doesn't want the added stress to affect her baby.

"I am nervous and excited about being a mum and just need to be normal and low key for a while. Pregnancy and motherhood is a very personal thing: daunting, new and worrying at times and I don't want to add to it by having to 'look' a certain way when pregnant or be photographed pregnant of with my child," she posted.
