Is it okay for me to wash my hair everyday?

Question

Or does it strip hair of the natural oils? I have medium long hair.. I like washing it daily but I'm always rushing in the morning because I have to dry it and all that.

I have dandruff so I think my hair could be dry. But it's shiny and not dull so I guess it's normal..??

Sooooooo should I wash it daily or no?

Answer 1

Not if you have dandruff, your hair need that natural oil. Watch what kind of dandruff shampoo you use, I would go to a Salon and get a dandruff shampoo from there, and always condition.

Answer 2

If you're always rushing in the mornings, why don't you switch your bath time to the evening, just before bed? Then you could choose whether to dry your hair, or just leave it to dry naturally while you sleep.

And when I had longer hair I would wet my hair every day while I bathed, but actually shampoo it only one day in three. The other two days I would just use a light conditioner on it.

As to the dandruff...I have still never heard of any shampoo that worked better than Head & Shoulders. They make so many kinds these days that you should be able to find one for your specific hair type.

Answer 3

It is okay to wash your hair daily. You need to use a dandruff shampoo for several days to get the dandruff under control and then you can use the dandruff shampoo every couple of days.

I wash my hair everyday and I have no problems with it. I don't think that I have missed a day of washing my hair for at least twenty five years and my hair is just as thick now as it has ever been.

I think that if you wet it and do not wash it that it will make it look oily. Its best if you do get it wet all over to go ahead and wash it.

Answer 4

i think its okay to wash everyday (i do usually but i have short hair). but its not great for your hair. it does strip it of natural oils. the dandruff you have is probably a result of that. try starting an every other day routine with a dandruff shamoo. then when that is under control begin with a moisturizing/volumizing shamoo. that should keep your hair shiny and bouncy.

Answer 5

You're right--washing your hair everyday isn't good for your hair because it does deplete natural oils. If you have dandruff, buy yourself some dandruff shampoo and use it when you do wash your hair.

Answer 6

Washing every day can dry your hair & scalp. If you want to freshen it between washings, try wetting it in the shower & just put on some conditioner. And of course rinse out the conditioner as you normally would.

Answer 7

Ahte to tell you this but youll go bald if you keep this up. Washing your hair takes awya the oils in your hair which make your hair grow. Aklso it takes awya from nutrients in your hair. So no Do not wash it everyday. Unless you want to be about 40 or so and have a huge bald spot or no hair at all!!

Answer 8

No. Washing your hair each morning will dry your hair out. once you wash your washing all of the organic oils your scalp produces to maintain your hair healthful. once you wait a pair of days it shall we the oil artwork its way via your hair shaft and supply your hair its nutrition it is going to strengthen, save from chop up or ineffective ends, and purely everyday stay healthful.

Answer 10

i wash my hair everyday and its just fine, just make sure that you get all the shampoo and conditioner out before getting out of the shower..it gives you flakes in your hair/dandruff if you leave it in and your hair dries.
