Would you go hairdressers with unwashed hair

[Justfornothing]

Finally my hair appointment today!
I last washed my hair on Monday, usually only wash it once a week, would you wash it today before going to the hairdressers?
Friend says she would never go to the hairdressers with unwashed hair which made me think maybe I should wash it this morning but I really can't be bothered

I'd wash it!

Definitely wash it.

Depends what you are in for. I’ve always washed mine but if it’s colour my mum has been told to keep it washed just a couple of days before.

I don’t (what’s the point, they just wash it for you) but my hairdresser is insisting on washed hair for covid reasons at the moment.

If I am going for a colour then I don’t wash it that day

If the hairdresser is going to wash it anyway I wouldn't bother.

Depends if it's dirty or greasy. I need only to wash my hair every 3/4 days so if it's day 4 no; but I wouldn't stretch it to day 5.

I would not wash it. I would also not clean before the cleaner came round. If I had a cleaner.

If they wash it, then I wouldn't bother! Otherwise it'd end up dry from the double wash!

I don't usually, because it's washed there. But I wash mine every other day. I don't think your hairdresser will necessarily know - some people's hair will get oily and dirty quickly for example, but yours might not, which is why you don't wash it often presumably.

As long as it's not really greasy no - what's the point in paying them to wash it for you?

This

I normally wash mine every day, but wouldn't bother on the day of a haircut. The first thing they're going to do is wash it, so it's a wasof time!

I wouldn't unless it is due to be washed. If you have the type of hair that only needs washing once a week then it is still clean 3 days after washing.

If I hadn't washed it since Monday I would, but I couldn't get away with washing my hair once a week anyway.

I'd never wash it that day I was going, but probably the day before.

No. I pay them to wash it.

Unless it’s in a terrible state.

It depends, if it still feel nice & clean then no, bit if it feels greasy then you - no one wants to be handling someone else's greasy/dirty hair.

But if you're getting it coloured you should have washed it Tuesday & left it.

Well my theory is if you go in with your hair looking it's best - washed and styled but needing a trim, then the hairdresser has to improve on that. But if you rock up with unwashed hair scraped up into a ponytail they have a lower starting point!! Just one of those odd things I do; so I'd say wash it. 😁

I don’t generally as they wash it for you anyway. I wash my hair every other day though. I might wash it if it had been 4 days.

I think I did wash it once on the morning of an appointment as it was quite greasy. I remember the hairdresser asking me whether I’d just washed it when she was doing her own wash. I think she thought it a bit odd!

If you a getting a colour or highlights then I wouldn't wash it
Also if you're just getting it cut then don't they wash it anyway?

Is the hairdresser going to wash it before your cut? If so why would it need to be washed twice in a few hours?

People's hair is all different, no need to do what suits your friends hair.

I wash mine at least every second day...but I wouldn't on the day of an appt because they wash it for me. And I love love love getting it scrubbed by someone else ...it is like the best head massage ever. No haidressers open where I am...hair is sooo long now & I'm envious of your upcoming hair wash, lucky you.

Does it look like it needs a wash? I wouldn’t go with greasy hair but I don’t normally wash it as I have colour then a wash so i don’t see the point.

One of the first things they do is wash it, so I would say no.

@HavfrueDenizKisi I agree with this, I always wear make up and half decent clothes too. If you look like you don't give a shit, they won't put the effort in.
