Answers to a previous question told me to wash it every day, but I thought if you did that you get rid of the natural oil which keeps hair healthy? Or if you use hair products do you have to wash it every day?
Any expert advice please?

i wash my hair every day
depends how long your hair is. . mine is bobbed at the mo and i wash it twice a week. . its not good to wash your hair everyday anyway as it does wash all the natural oils out
I wash mine every other day – otherwise it goes really greasy
Every two or three days ought to do it. I wash mine every other day.
Washing too often dries out the hair and makes it brittle and have split ends, along with other damage. Wash it only when necessary.
I should think every other day should be sufficient.
From what I have read, they say you should wash your hair AT LEAST once a week. If you have oily hair then you should was more often.
I have dry hair so I was 1-2 a week. Works for me.
I agree with every other day.
I wash my hair everyday or when I dont I put it in a pony tail. I have an oily scalp so I dont have a choice or it would look too greasy. There are some shampoos that say they are gentle enough for everyday use.
3/4 times a week
I have to wash mine daily it is oily if not
dont wash every day
it dries out your scalp
what u do is wash one day and condition the next
if your hair is prone to tangle and friz wash and condition one day and then just condition the next.
you shouldnt shower every day either because it dries out the skin
but i think its gross not to shower every day
but as for hair. its so bad for your scalp.
I am using hair gel because of that I wash my hair everyday.
wash your hair every two weeks
every other day
if you don’t wash it often enough it goes greasy.
If you wash it every day it goes very limp
That logic (of washing away vital oil hair) only applies to dogs ans cats. We HUMANS can wash the hair everyday, because remeber that the head does sweat as well.
You aren’t really suppose to to wash it everyday. You do lose the natural oil. Its depends what kind of hair you have. But try to wash it every 2 days or every other day. Its okay. Someone told me instead of washing it everyday try try to rinse every day without washing it. It works, her hair looks great. I hope it works
Good luck.
For caucasions, every other day is fine. Washing it daily will take out your natural oils. If you are african american, once a week or every two weeks.
Yes, every other day.
No expert advice, I’m afraid but your answer would depend on: a) the length of your hair;
b) how thick/thin it is;
c) whether it is oily, normal or dry;
I have dry, short and not so thick or thin hair. With this profile, I wash every two days because I find the scalp begins to get dry on the second day. Also I use herbal products otherwise my scalp is always dry and great lumps of hair fall from the follicles. Do your own profile and I hope this helps.
it depends on your hair if you have greasy hair then washing it every day will not damage your hair as it is producing enough natural oils but if you have dry hair once or twice a week will be sufficient if you use a lot of product eg hairspray or gel and you dont want to wash it every day then wet it with water to remove the product and put a little conditioner on the ends to make it easier to comb but dont put too much on or you will make it greasy hope this helps
I wash mine as little as possible to stop it drying out but in reality I have to wash it every one and a half days (i. e. Monday AM, Tues PM, Thurs AM, Fri PM, Sun AM, Mon PM etc) otherwise it is so greasy it look really awful. If I wash it in the morning even the next day it looks a bit greasy tied up so its really difficult to judge. If I’m going out or after going to the gym etc I will wash it regardless even if it means washing it twice in one day but then if I’m having a slob weekend I won’t wash it for a few days and wear a cap just to give it a break. as long as you use a clarifying shampoo once a week or 2 weeks and don’t always blow dry and use heat appliances it should be fine.
usually if you are a girl you should wash about 3 days a week( not more than 3) because if makes your hair dry and your hair becomes weak but it you are a boy i cant suggest you sorry coz’ i am a girl! ^_^
I wash mine every morning. I f I go anywhere that’s smoky (though after July 1st that won’t apply) I wash it again when I get home
Twice a week. Do not wash your hair every day. That is really bad for your hair and can make it dry and lifeless.
It really does depend on your hair type. But my mom is a hair stylist and so I am always getting tips from her on how to keep my hair looking great! This tip is for all hair types. . .
Do NOT shampoo the ends of ur hair, just shampoo your scalp. Then condition the length. . . . . . always work conditioner thru your length. . . and leave in at least 1 min before rinsing it. If possible give your hair a final rinse in semi-cold water. . . what that does is close up pores on ur scalp for a short period of time and those who have a oily scalp, will notice your hair wont get oily as fast. And it also gives ur hair a shine.
If u are going to blowdry your hair, WAIT. . . . at least 4-5 mins after showering. Apply your anti-frizz or other products to your hair during this time, so that your hair may absorb the extra moisture b4 you start to style.
Also once a week, or every 2 weeks if u’d prefer, say lazy sundays. . . if you dont really have to leave the house and such. . . Tea Tree Oil is your best friend. . . . buy some and drench the lengthy part of your hair in it and leave in for at least 2-3 hours and rinse with warm water. . . next day u may shampoo and condition as normal. tea tree oil is also great for your cuticles and nail, so slather some on there while your doing your hair. . . . this treatment will have your hair looking vibrant and healthy for days.
Hope these tips help you as much as they have me, my bad hair days are a thing of the past, thanks to my mom!
Hi what you thought firstly was correct, but some people have to wash there everyday as they have really greasy hair which looks a mess if they dont, If you have normal – dry hair then every other day is fine. Everyones hair type is different, Wash your hair how you want to.
It all depends on what shampoo and conditions you use. Some are bland enough and are reccomended for daily use, others are very strong and and should be used every two days (or so) rather than everyday use which can be hair damaging. x
If you are using good shampoo and conditioner you don’t necessarily do any harm washing everyday.
I use wax and feel I have to wash my hair everyday, but that’s just me! Good products can be ‘re-activated’ in the morning by damping it down a touch and re-working the product to style.
i have really long, thick hair, and i wash it every other day. every day will spoil it, leaving it dry and weak, therefore meaning alot more split ends and looking dull! if you dont wash your hair for a while, then it will get greasy/smelly/dandruffy etc lol. i would say for guys its different, some can get away with doing it just once or twice a week. i recommend at least every 2 days, i do it every other day cos my hair gets greasy and i love to use herbal essences to make it smell lovellllly!! oooooooo-ahhhhh. hehe
i wash my hair every 2nd day i wash it oday tomorrow i wet it and pun cond in then the next day wash it again
My hairdresser always tells me every 2 to 3 days. I wash mine as instructed and my hair always (well almost always, everyone has their off days) looks great.
too much washing does strip off the natural oils in your hair try washing it 2 times aweek
