How often do you wash your hair?

[RedRobyn2021]

And what hair type would you say you have?

My hairdresser has told me washing my hair every 2 days is not right for my hair type and I should try to wait a week. My hair is very thick and long.

I am going to give this a try because I would save a lot of time!

Interested to hear what others do

Thick long and wavy and I wash it everyday. Just habit

Normally Saturday if I am going out and then Tuesday before I go into the office. If I'm not going out at the weekend then just Tuesday.

Super fine curly hair here and I wash twice a week. I used to manage once a week but after 2 hols this summer with daily washing I haven't got back into that swing again yet. Hopefully will this winter but it takes a couple of weeks for hair to get used to it and I've too much going on out of the house for that at the moment. I used to wash every other day but your hair gets used to it so I avoid getting into that habit as it makes me really greasy.

Every other day. It's really thick, just over shoulder length and wavy although I usually blow dry it straight.
It doesn't look good if I leave it longer and I hate having my hair up.

Fine and greasy so I wash it every day bar the odd weekend day.

I wash mine about twice a week, I have been using faith in nature tea tree conditioner which has been really good at cleansing my scalp without drying out my hair. I use a scalp massager to really work the conditioner into my scalp, and then I use a tangle teaser brush to work the conditioner through the length of my hair, leaving the conditioner in to soak in till the end of my shower. I have curly/ frizz prone hair but my roots start to get oily around day 3 after washing even though the ends are still very dry.

Although I have to wet the ends of my hair in the shower each day to reacticate the curls and reduce frizz.

Every other day. In the winter. Every day in the summer long think blonde -greying-

Every few days. I have long, straight, brown hair.

Daily or greasy. I've tried the leaving it in lockdown for 2 days then 3 etc. But always by day 2 its stuck to my face with grease.
I also have oily skin

I used to get 3 days between washes, having started on a testosterone gel to help with the menopause I have to wash it every other day 🙄

I feel like a teenager with greasy hair and oily skin 🙈

Thick and wavy. Wash it every other day. If I can get away a third day (usually on a weekend day I'm not going out) I'll hold off another day.

Twice a week. Hair short,coloured and thick

Every day. Takes three minutes to wash and another two with the hairdryer, if I can be bothered, but I usually let it dry naturally. It’s not very long though!

natural graying
fine and medium amount of it
Shortish
"dry"
I wash it about once every 4-6 weeks

I wash my hair every day. I let it dry naturally. I have fine, poker straight hair.

Once a week. Thick Curly hair. It doesn’t need more than that, and would be way too much hassle to do it more often as well. My hair is fairly dry. I refresh it with a water spray and some hair product daily.

I do mine twice a week, and that is my absolute limit, I feel absolutely minging by day 4! It's super bleached, so I should probably only do it once a week but there is no way I could stretch to that. I used ro do it religiously every other day though, so am finding I am saving a lot of shampoo and conditioner!

Very thick but medium length (mid neck.) every 3 days, unless I'm going out somewhere nice.

Normally only wash once a week. I have long fine hair that dries out if I wash more frequently.
Dd has very long thick hair and we only wash hers once a week as well.
We grew up with weekly hair washes and until I had multiple kids my hair was thick and long and lush.
It's not recovered after my last pregnancy unfortunately

Mid length and naturally curly - type 3c ish.

I wash mine mostly every other day just because otherwise I wake up looking like I’ve got a birds nest on my head. I know I should really pineapple it up or sleep with a satin bonnet etc like you’re supposed to with curly hair but I just can’t stand all that shite on my head when I sleep.

My hair is very processed- bleached to within an inch of its life with bright colours on top. I wash it once a week because otherwise the colour just fades straight away and I pay a lot of money for it! I use dry shampoo and because of the bleach it isn't very greasy anyway.

Every day or I have a head like a frying pan.

My hair is just above waist length, very thick and curly. I wash my hair every 8-11 days, depends how it looks but my hair doesn't get greasy fast at all. I style with products / water in between so keep it looking fresh as it can get very frizzy due to my hair type. If i straighten it i always need to wash it faster than i would normally.

I have very thick hair. I wash it three times a week (usually Mondays, weds and Fridays). I do a lot of sport and it gets very sweaty! If I don't do sport it could prob go longer between washes.

I think mine looks best on the second day but can usually get a third out of it. It's a bit greasy and frizzy by then though. My hair is thickish and wavy.
