is it okay to use shampoo everyday??

i used to shampoo my hair everyday (back in the philippines coz i wasnt driving and i commute everyday so imagine the dust and smoke all over), now i do it every other day. It depends on what type of hair you have and you should be aware of ingredients that is in the shampoo that you are using. Some shampoo you can use them everyday some are not coz they take away the natural oil from your hair that is essential for its growth. You can also loose your hair because of stress.

I shampoo every other day. sometimes I even skipped taking a shower. lol.

I have never heard of shampoo causeing people to lose hair so in my opinion there is no problem with using shampoo everyday and i actually think it is important to use it everyday because it is important to practice good hygiene. I use shampoo everyday and i do mean absolutely every day and my head is full of hair so i would say that shampoo does not cause hair loss.

Hi jlovetin, I did read articles about the harm might cause to our health if using shampoo too often. Not only shampoo, whereas the other hair care products like conditioner, hair gel, hair lotion and etc would spoil our health as well. These products which contain chemical compositions believed not only would damage our hair, scalp as well as would affect our body health as well if contacting too frequently with these products

I use both shampoo twice or thrice in a week. I have to shampoo my hair in every other day, for we would sweat easily due to the hot weather here. I find it’s convenient to wash with shampoo only. I have to keep my hair silky and easy to comb if using conditioner after shampooing Hopefully taking more healthy and nutritious food would help to have healthy hair.

As far as I know,it's not good to people who use shampoo everyday, currently, all shampoo contains lots of chemical element which is not good to our health. General, I just use it twice a week.
But maybe the reason of losing hair is not because of shampoo,may be cause by sleeplessness,anxiety, your mood......etc

i think it is not advisable to use shampoo everyday. Our hair produces oils and its make our hair strands stronger. If we use shampoo everyday we are washing off the oils form our hairs. I myself don't use shampoo as always in a day i usually just shampoo every two other days.

i dont think it is advisable to use shampoo every day. i have heard that it washes off the natural oils produced by the hair follicles to keep the hair look shiny and strong. this way, there is a tendancy for hair breakage and hair fall.
limit your shampoo sessions to twice a week or atleast every other day and see to it that you use a very mild shampoo which does minimum damage to hair. and moreover, make sure that you wash off all sediments of shampoo from the hair thoroughly so that there is no residue left in the hair. that is very harmful.
same applies to conditioner too.
i dont use any hair creams or gels. so i am not the best person to talk on them. all that i know that it is always better to limit the use of chemical products on the hair.

I never heard of a doctor recommending that, but most hair stylist recommends me to use shampoo every other day and use conditioner most of the time, and that's what I just do.:)

I think it is okay to use shampoo everyday - I've always done it.

Unless your hair very very oily, washing hair every day is not only unnecessary, it can be harmful too . Taking every other day off from shampoo - or even 2 or more days off if your hair is dry or damaged - gives your hair a break from the detergents and the inevitable roughness that comes with shampooing, both of which can rough up hair's protective cuticle layer. A day away from shampoo also allows sebum - hair's natural conditioner - to get a foothold in individual strands. And as most like and believe the suds have got nothing with the cleaning properties of the shampoos
