Why is washing hair daily bad?

Answer 1

It's not bad, but doesn't really benefit your hair. It strips it of it's natural oils that make it shiny and healthy.
I used to have long hair that I would wash and straighten once a week. It was the healthiest it had ever been. Of course this only really works if you have a hairstyle that stays flat and then that you can put up towards the end of the week before you want to wash it again.
I since got a (really, really bad) haircut and can't do that anymore because it is heavily layered and choppy. I am trying to grow it back, because it was such an easy hairstyle to have.

Answer 2

Well, it is not necessarily bad to wash your hair daily. If you have a normal to oily scalp and hair. But if you have dry hair and scalp and you wash your hair everyday the natural oils in your hair will be washed out. Basically it will dry your hair out if you already have dry hair. Otherwise i would not worry about it.

Answer 3

It depends on the texture of your hair. If you have thick, coarse, dry hair or a combination of them - bad! Thin, fine, or oily hair or a combo of them - good! I am generalizing.
The important thing to know is how your hair responds.
1] Use the proper products for your type hair
2] Wet hair, lather the scalp [ not shaft of hair ] and rinse well. If shampoo isn't lathering properly, hair is either very dirty or has a buildup of products. In this case, lather twice.
3] Put conditioner on hair shaft, not scalp. Your scalp doesn't need conditioner, and that new hair doesn't yet either.
4] Limit use of dryers/curlers/irons, and use a thermal protector when you do.
5] Blot dry, then comb [ never use a comb on wet hair! ]

Answer 4

Your hair needs natural oils to stay healthy and not dry out. Washing your hair daily robs your hair of the natural oils, thus drying it out and making it brittle and frizzy.

Answer 5

Can be depends on your hair type, if you have Oliy hair than no if you have coarse dry hair it might not be bad to let your natural hair oils to be brushed thru your hair add some shine!

Answer 6

It is bad for your hair because it dries it out really fast and dry hair is not good that is why they made hair conditioner!

Glad to help

Answer 7

if you wash it daily then all the natural oils are pretty much no longer there

Answer 8

It isn't bad, just when people have overly porus hair it isn't recomended. Also for people with color treated hair, warm water tends to cause color to fade more quickly.

Answer 9

No, washing hair often is good in fact, if u want to grow longer and faster hair, wash ur hair 2 times a day, to avoid ur hair from being dry, use CONDITIONER its important. I wash my hair 2 times a day. Almost all hair stylist wash their hair 2 times a day also to get faster growth in hair. Keeping hair clean is good.

as those toiletries contain chemicals. when they are frequently used, they take away the natural shine of your hair and make them rough 'n' dry.
