I was told that washing my hair everyday isn't good for my hair. However most hairdressers have said I have nice healthy hair. So I'm wondering how often other people wash their hair and how much is too much.

Well when you wash your hair, you wash off the natural oils that are there, so they say its not good to wash it everyday.
You hair gets used to the frequency between washes. I used to wash mine everyday, and then if i missed a day it would look sooo greesy. I then began to dye my hair (which washes out so easily) and wanted to cut down the amount of times I wash it. I started washing every 2 days for a week, then every 3 days. Now I can manage to only wash it once a week and it looks fresh and clean the whole week. I save tons of money in hair dye now cos i only have to dye it once every 2 weeks - i was dying it twice a week when I was washing it loads.
But I think the recommendation is to wash your hair a couple times a week.

There isnt a 'correct' amount of hair washing. I wash my hair everyday an my hair is ok. If your hair is in good condition then u r fine and dont let anyone else tell u otherwise.

every other day is generally a good idea, though washing ur hair 3 times a week is a good way to keep ur hair looking healthy and it wont become too greasy from over washing it.

Depends how greasy it gets. I have to wash mine every day or else it would be horrible and greasy by the afternoon. My friend said her brother had to use dish washing liquid because his hair was so greasy. Some people can get away with washing it every other day.

It depends on your hair type, what kind of shampoo you use, and your environment. In the winter I usually go every other day because my hair gets dried out. In the summer, it's daily. Sometimes it's more than once a day if I get sweaty during a workout or if I get dusty cleaning. Do what feels right and works for you and your hair type.

I wash my hair maybe every week or two weeks. Washing your hair everyday strips the moisture out of your hair. If you use Pantene Pro-v, then you could wash your hair everyday.

i think it really depends..i wash my hair at least once a night because if i didn't it would get a little oily on the top. but i would recommend at least washing it once a night and if your a person who likes to take shower in the morning i think you should skip washing your hair in the mornings and just wash it at night.......i have always washed my hair once a night and i think my hair is in pretty good shape...........hope you find the answer

I have washed my hair every day for the last 15 years and it is in excellent condition. I think you just have to do what is right for you.

i wash mnie when its greasy, if you wash it too much you wash the pigment out and when you get older you will rely on having to wash your hair everyday, and you should only really condition it twice a week, other wise your weighing your hair down
