Are people who say that wash the hair to often, will damage natural greese, if don t wash, hair will be afected by dust. What is right answer? I have long hair, and i wash to 2 days in the summer and to 4 days in the winter, but i have a dry skin, so, i must use hair oil, don t break my hair. How many times you wash your hair in one week and why?

i wash my hair everyday. my hair is long and i use conditioner everyday too. sometimes, if the weather is really hot, i take a bath at least twice a day. i can't go out if i don't take a bath or wash my hair. i need to do it everyday.

i wash my hair daily it's long and colored, but i also live in a dusty place and work with cows. we don't have really cold winters at the moment, but i usually shower at night so my hair can dry out before bed. i tie it back most the time in plaits and during the day have it up in a pony tail. i moisturize it once a week aleast, with leave in stuff. if i leave my hair to long before washing it gets the greazy feeling to it and i don't like it.

Are peoples who say that they wash hair every day, maybe they have short hair, and is very easy, but if you have long hair is almost impossible to wash your hair daily, just is vary hard to dry it. and in the winter, is dangerous too, to go out with hair just wash. Meningita is so easy to catch in cold season; 2 times in a week is very good, and in summer, i wash my hair when i need to wash, 2,3 times in a week.

I wash my hair everyday in the morning when I took my shower.. I have this habit that when I shower, since my hair will be wet, I will wash them. I don't really like the shower cap, therefore rather wash it daily..

I wash my every other day, 3 times for the week. I think if you wash your hair everyday, it will eventually damage your hair and make it fine.

Since I've been an adult I typically wash my hair about every other day or 3-4 times per week. I do this because I feel like my hair looks better when it isn't washed every single day. This is a significant change from when I was a teenager because when I was a teenager I had to wash my hair every single day because I was on the high school swim team and I had to wash my hair every time I was in the pool. With my own children I mostly encourage them to wash their hair every other to every third day and both of them have the most beautiful hair.

Hi marianna45, Wash my hair twice a week sometimes. I have mixed hair condition sometimes its dry and sometimes quite oily too. I try to use for oily hair a neutral php shampoo to bring down the amount of oil in the hair and it stays in a more normal condition longer too. Also I use a conditioner a natural one and I leave it on a bit longer than usual and it leaves my hair more bouncy and shiny. When my hair is a normal state then I wash it once a week if I can but the longer it grows the more unmanageable it becomes. So then it´s off to the Hairdressers as a last resort.

Hi marianna, I was it every second day because I have short hair it can get greasy very easily. I do believe however that it is good to not wash it too often because the natural oils in your hair are better than any conditioner or hot oils that you would buy in the supermarket. People with long hair are lucky as they can tie up there hair so its not so visible that it hasn't been was frequently. But I disagree that dust affects your hair!
