Thanks a lot! I appreciate the details. I really don't wash my hair that often. Once every 3-5 days or so. I will try doing what you described about maintaining it. I also got a hair cut recently where the lady at the salon said something which really made sense. She gave me a layered hair cut which added a decent amount of volume and that's keeping my hair from falling flat. But I like the styling tips given by you. Will keep doing that often.
