Re: How often do you wash your hair?

I wear my hair curly, so it's every day ... my curls turn into a lions mangy mane by morning.
If I get it straightened though I can last 3-4 days and it's fine, well the 4th day is a pony tail, which looks fantastic.
I use baby powder at the roots if I look like I might start to shine, but otherwise I have pretty dry hair and don't need to worry.

Every day without fail. When I wake up in the morning, its so greasy and gross, I won't leave the house like that! Its so greasy I don't need gel to slick it back! Chat Icon So yes, every day without fail!

Every other day, it actually looks better on the day I don't wash it. Otherwise it gets to dry.

whoever said maybe every 3 days or 4, , thats just gross...lol


I wash my hair every day, but I also spend about 100 on hair products every month because I need to use good stuff so my hair does not get stripped of the oils. I have to wash it every single day or else it looks like crap.

Re: How often do you wash your hair?

I am in the twice a week catagory now.
When my hair was curly it was every day. Now that I get my hair straightened, I don't wash it as often. It is more every 3 days than every 4 though. Sometimes it will be a few days in a row but it just depends! I have really thick hair so it just takes too darn long to dry!
Jax, I put my hair in a bun then use a shower cap. It actually helps if the roots get a little wet though for when I do blow it for styling.

Same with me. My hair gets so dry so fast so I will not wash it everyday for that reason.

why is that gross? I have washed my hair going on 3 days once in awhile. For a lot of us, the more you wash it, the more you take away the natural oils that need to build up and keep your hair healthy.

Please don't be ashamed!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon There is no reason to be. What type of alopecia do you have? Totalis? I have alopecia areata. Thankfully it hasn't acted up for a long time. But when I did, it was very traumatic. My last spot appeared when I was about 7 months pg so I could not get injections. You are not alone. FM if you want to chat. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

As for me, I can't possibly wash my hair everyday. My hair is very curly, thick and dry. It would damage my hair alot so I wash it every 2 - 3 days. Except in the summer, then I wash it more like every other day.

Re: How often do you wash your hair?

I know you are not supposed to, but I was it every day. I have very short hair and in the morning, it is unruley. Also, it gets greasy from the products that I use. So I have no choice

My hair is the same way. I'm so jealous of people who can go 2 or 3 days.

Re: How often do you wash your hair?

I'm gross, I know, I only wash it about every 3 days. I'm dyed blonde and have naturally curly hair that I blow out, and if I wash and blow it out everyday my head would look like straw. My hair is healthiest now only washing it every few days and using top of the line products.

When I'm brunette, I wash it every other day.

Re: How often do you wash your hair?

I picked that I wash everyday cause I have psoriasis on my scalp and have to use a medicine at bedtime and if I don't wash my hair in the morning it is so greasy that it looks like I haven't washed in a month.
