Hello, I am in the process of growing my hair and am almost 7 months into it.
i recently decided that i am not going to wash my hair every single day, but only every other day, and maybe not even that (depends on when im going out, etc). Well anyway, for the days that i DO wash my hair in the shower, is it best to use JUST shampoo, or shampoo and conditioner? if i use conditioner, my hair will obviously get greasy faster, and it would be harder to skip a day of washing. Which way do you think is best?
also, on days when i dont wash, i usually just rinse my hair out with cool water. is this the right thing to do?
This is not true. Most conditioners do not work by adding oil to the hair.
That's fine
I wash my hair every sunday,and wendnesday, with shampoo and conditioner. I dont wash my hair inbetween that time, just get it wet in the shower. Im not sure if my hair gets greasier faster when i use conditioner, but it could.my hair doesnt get greasy until about day 2 or 3 of no washing.
I don't have the facts on this but I've heard that washing your hair daily isn't good for it. Your hair needs to build that oil back up to be healthy or something, nature's way I guess. Every other day's cool and even longer if you choose. Depending on how long your hair is, shampoo might be all you need. I used to use Pert+ when it was shorter but after a few years I needed more conditioner. You'll know it when the time comes, it'll get harder to brush out. I believe conditioning adds shine to mine but most importantly do what works best for you and stick with it. Hope this helps. Bruin
