I wash mines every week. Like every 7 to 10 days from the time that I last washed it.

hi, friend. i wash my hair everyday because i have very oily hair. and it gets really itchy if i don't. aside from that, i live in a tropical country. i would go crazy because of the heat and the itch if i skip a day without washing it. take care!

I wash mine twice a week, I did try to go just once a week but it was not really that good for my hair. I find that twice a week seems just about right for it.

Yes, I would say that twice a week is a better choice too!

If you wash your hair that often its normal it gets oily so soon. I dont think its healthy to wash it every day.

I'm sure that our hair types must be very different. Mine is fine, blond, straight hair. For my hair type, it is quite normal to shampoo daily.

I must say i was quite surprised when I saw almost everyone answered they are washing their hair every day. i dont think its healthy to wash them every day, especially if you have to blow dry them. A t least here we cant leave them to naturally dry as its too cold lol ANd me having long hair I dont even feel like doing my hair every single day and spend 2 hours a day just to fix my hair. ANyway, I do wash them twice a week and even then its more like a need to wash my scalp rather then my hair. But yes, twice a week is normally for me.

Hi Cream97. Due to the humidity in my country, i wash every time i shower, normally 1 or 2 times a day, depends on whether i go out or not.

I like to wash mine once daily, I can't always, but I try to.. I do have to at least every other day, if I can't do it daily.. I like for my hair to feel soft, silky and clean, so I wear it short and wash it daily, if I can..

I don;t like to wash my hair everyday because once it will be wet, it will be curly. I normally have a curly hair but I used (ironing hair) to make it straight and once it will be wet again, it will return to its original type. A curly hair and I don;t like it.. I just want it once in a while..

Yes, I have naturally curly and wavy hair.. When it is dry it gets straight with some crimp in it.

Hi cream97, yes I do too, if I wash it too often, it goes too dry. Tamara

I have really greasy hair so I wash mine about every other day. If I don't it looks like I dumped cooking oil on my head.

I wash my hair everyday... coz, according to me bathing is the one, which should be taken for the whole body, else, it is not the bath...... Your head is attached with your body right......????? so, you should take bath for your whole body right.....?

I wash mine daily. If i don't it gets so oily and greasy and disgusting that no one would wanna come near me. It seriously gets very very gross if i don't wash it daily.

Since my hair is very thick and very long I only need to wash it about twice a month. Anymore than that and my hair becomes limp and my scalp gets very dry and itchy. Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

i need to wash my hair everyday, otherwise i feel uncomfortable. maybe it's partly due to my hair type, but i think it also has to do with living in a polluted city. =(

I wash everyday.And most of the day twice.Actually in our place(Kerala) it is a common routine.That is because of the climate in Kerala.When it is summer , we must take bath twice a day.And even if it is rainy season people tend to follow that routine.Everyone here are considering bathing as a serious thing.
