I wash my hair everyday in summer and every other day in winter. My hair is oily. I need to wash it quite frequently. Otherwise, it looks greasy and I am not comfortable with it. Some experts say that if your hair and scalp is dry, you should only wash your hair once a week. Washing hair too frequently can remove the sebum our scalp produces, which is vital to healthy, shiny hair.

@Beestring If I work in the garden and I do not feel comfortable, I was every day in summer, but occasionally, not all the time.

@MrDenata I think grey hair has nothing to do with washing frequently. I have lots of grey hair. I dye my hair to dark brown because I have to sing in concerts.

Sounds good. Your hair is normal, not dry not oily?

@Beestring It's fairly normal for the most part. It will get a bit oily if I don't wash it for 3 or more days. It's not too horrible though.

That sounds good. Is your hair oily, normal or dry?

Shampooing my hair everyday makes it brittle and dry. I have a dry scalp so I just shampoo my hair once or twice a week only

There are times that I shampoo every day. Which is not good.

Yes, if your hair is dry, don't wash it too frequently.

I used to wash my hair every day until I heard it wasn't good to wash it every day. Now I shampoo every other day

I don't shampoo my hair everyday. Doing so dries my hair badly. I only shampoo like 3 times a week. I use conditioner more often than shampoo. In between, I just use dry shampoo if I feel the need to. Dry shampoo does the job better for me.

I read on the internet that some experts advise people to do what you mentioned.

I have dry hair and use shampoo twice a day. So that my hair looks dry and not cool. But if I don't wash my head and hair with shampoo 2 times a day, my head feels itchy. What do you think?

I think your head feels itchy because it's too dry. Try not to shampoo so often.

I take a bath everyday, and shampoo everyday too.
