I know most people say that you should really only wash your hair with shampoo every few days or even once a week. But I shampoo and condition my hair almost every day..sometimes every other day and I have noticed no ill effects. I find that if I shampoo and then condition, it looks fine for the day, the next day usually, but the 3rd day it becomes very greasy. If I try to compensate for this by using less conditioner the first day, my hair is too dry untill the 2nd or 3rd day.
Hello,
I tend to wash my hair every day, because I feel fresh each time, but that is me. Some say they only wash their hair with rinse, or even just water... but it depends on the person.
You need to find what makes you most comfortable, since each person has their differnt particularities.
Have a nice day,

Hey thats the same for me, I tried washing it every 2 days but it comes all greasy, so i kept washing everyday, but thats different for everybody, just take what suits you the best
max ;)
What a coincidence. Just today I had decided to go back and try shampooing every day because I thought shamppoing less often would help some of my frizzy hair be less noticeable. Turns out that in a few days I just get oily hair with some that frizzes on top. I also noticed that I used to idly play with my hair and enjoy how long it was getting but now that I haven't been washing so often, I don't really even like to touch it anymore. That just struck me today and I am going back to shampoo and conditioning daily despite the conventional wisdom here. Everybody is different and that was definitely not working for me.
I tried washing mine every 2 days but it became really greasy and horrible. I wash it every day now and it seems fine. I like it much better when it feels clean.
Only been growing for a year and like 2 months, so my hair isn't "long" long yet, but I wash it every 3rd day. If I don't, it will get really greasy and it will start to twist and stuff. When I wash it, it's a lot more managable, looks better, and doesn't feel so greasy. I don't even condition it.
I find that I need to shampoo and condtion my hair every 2 to 3 days. I find it, at its best the day after I wash it from then on it begins to loose its shine and freshness.
It depends on type of hair you have. Some people may need to shampoo and Condtion every day and others can go a week or more without washing their hair.
Everyone is different. Some need to wash everyday while others, including myself only wash and condition once a week. Find what gives you the best results and stick with it!
Factors/variables that may influence the frequency of washing:
A) the length of your hair - longer hair is washed less than short hair as the oils can travel on the follicies.
B)Hair type - Straight hair tends to get oiler/greasier than curly hair
C)The rate of sebum production by your scalp.
hi,
this depends on your type of hair ... some guys here only wash their hair once a week, some everyday and some every 2-3 days (includes me) ...
every scalp produces a different amount of grease ...
i think if u use the right shampoo + conditioner for your hair it should be no problem to wash it more often ...
and in your progress pic your hair looks great - so your hair care routine seems to be ok ;)
greez & keep it growin,
ALH
