How often do you wash your hair?

I know people who wash their hair once a week. Most of them complain that long hair is 'difficult to manage' and takes a long time to dry. I keep long hair too, and I just don't understand what is wrong with hair taking a little long to dry! I also know people who think that if you wash your hair everyday, they break or fall more - I guess for them 'wash' means 'shampoo', and that is why the myth. I believe that hair should be washed everyday (but without a shampoo) so that it remains healthy and bouncy.

I have tried different anti-dandruff shampoo's for it but it seems that they do not make an effect with it. I also have an excessive dandruff problem which i have found impossible to treat- its been with me all my life. Every morning which I wake up I find my pillow dirty with bits of hair and dandruff and it just makes me feel really dirty - it makes me too embarrassed to ever find a girlfriend. So, I normally wear a hat or a beanie but whenever I take my hat or beanie off a lot of dandruff falls down and people would very easily notice that I have dandruff.

I wash my hair every single day sometimes I wash it twice a day. First, for hygiene reasons and second I'm just not comfortable not washing it. It makes my hair to oily and itchy sometimes.

I wash my hair every two - three days. It is different for every individual, as you can see from what's already been posted! Mine dries out if I wash it too much, it only gets greasy after three days of not washing (so I always wash on the third day!). To each his own!

I shampoo and condition my hair every other day unless it gets really sweaty and greasy from being outside in the sun too long, or after swimming or a really intense workout. Then I use a very mild shampoo.

i wash my hair every other day. i used to wash my hair like twice a week too, but ever since i got bangs, my hair tends to get oily faster and i can stand it! hence i need to shampoo and condition it..

I rarely to wash my hair, maybe it is just once in two weeks. I dont like to shampoo my hair, after it i will find my hair become dry, so now i rare to shampoo

I wash my hair every other day - because it IS thin. Often, on the "other" days, it just seems more manageable, probably due to build-up of styling products that make it easier to style. It may not necessarily be a good thing, but it works for me.

I wash my hair everyday, but I only use shampoo every other day because they say your scalp may be stripped off of its natural moisture. When I take a shower in the evening, I don't wash my hair anymore because it takes too long to dry.

Same with you, I also wash my hair almost everyday. sometimes if I'm very busy, I wash my hair once in 2 days. But I don't feel comfortable. because my hair will be itched and oiled. And I smell something bad smell from My hair. it's so uncomfortable. Maybe it's because I live in Indonesia which has dry season. When I went to another country like China in winter, I can wash my hair three times a week. because it's cold and I don't feel my hair oiled and bad smell.. ^^

Usually I wash my hair every day or every other day. I don't wash more than once a day because I will feel uncomfortable.

i wash my hair everyday but i dont use a regular shampoo, i use the dove moisture bar soap woth 1/2 milk then conditioner..your hair feels clean but not dry...give it a try...

I wash my hair every other day because it tends to get dry if I do so more often. Over- washing your hair can strip it of its natural oils.

I wash mine once and sometimes twice a week it really depends on where I'm going and what I'm doing...black hair care is a little different (smile)

I'm a man and has short hair most of the time. So, my hair health condition is not so important to me..:) Usually I shampoo my hair maybe once a week. If I feel like so anyway...:) If not maybe once in two weeks?
