how often do you wash your hair?

I wash my hair three times a week.i am not out were they is lots of dirt so, the three day works fine for me. i heard it was not good to wash your hair everyday it dries it out it is the shampoo. I suppose the more expensive the shampoo the more you could wash it but i can not afford to buy expensive shampoo.

I've heard more than once that it's not good to wash your hair every day, or really even every other day. A friend of mine was told by her stylist that she should only wash her hair (with shampoo) once every two weeks. In the meantime, she (the stylist) told her to use conditioner instead. Use the same amount of conditioner as you would if it were shampoo and put it on all of your hair, just like you would with shampoo. The stylist said that conditioners have a cleansing agent in them, same as shampoo so you only really need to use the conditioner. I think she's nuts! I tried it. Once. I hated the way my hair felt before it was even dry and when it did finally dry it felt like I hadn't washed it in a week. But I can barely go 24 hours between washings before my hair is so oily I can't even stand to touch it. Which makes me crazy because it's oily and dry at the same time
