How often do you wash your hair?

[Sparkesx]

Apologies if there's already a thread about this previously but I'm intrigued to find out how often others wash their hair?!

I used to wash mine at least once a day, sometimes twice! But have trained my hair now to every 3-4 days. I do have a shower every single day though!

I must find uses for only wash...with the tears of a virgin.

Wyldfyre yes! Thanks for enlightening me
I wash once a week (very thick hair which is up all the time so I don't really touch it that much). Used to get itchy around day 4 but have recently switched shampoos and it no longer does. New one is SLS free but I never realised that was the reason.

3/4 days normally

Yes, Paxillin, you have 24hrs to get in your first use!

every day it gets wet/rinsed in the shower. shampoo every 2-3 days depending on the condition.

Every other day. I'd like to do it every day ideally as it looks better freshly washed but drying it just takes so long (shoulder length) and I struggle to get out of the house on time as it is.

Once a week, unless it's really hot or I've been swimming/engaged in some form of vigorous exercise.

Once every 5 days would probably be optimum, but I can never be arsed to do it before work so it waits for the weekend.

I wash it every morning when I'm in the shower. My hair is so fine it looks flat and messy if I don't, and it's short so it dries really quickly.

Every morning - it's a short blunt bob with a tricky fringe, and I look utterly deranged after I've slept on it. Drying it takes five minutes with my Parlux, and I''m in the shower anyway.

Buckejit did it take long for you to go from every day to every few days with ginger shampoo? I have to wash mine every day or it's horribly greasy by lunchtime and would LOVE to stretch it to every other day or even longer (dreams)

When it's long it can last 4 days, now it back to short 2 days max. It's a mystery Why it won't last 4 days when it's shorter.

4-5 days. For three days I can wear my hair down, but then I have to wear my hair up after that until I wash it again.

4-5 times a week. Just washed it this evening for the first time since Sunday morning and the relief is immense. It smelt rank and looked so dull.

Once a week here at the most, sometimes longer. But I have mixed race/Afro hair which is notoriously very dry and any more often leaves it a dry fuzzy mess! Since I discovered sulfate free shampoo I'm actually able to wash it more often than I used to!

Every day. It seems someone comes into my room during the night and backcombs it for me.

I'm one of the tears of a virgin folk... But if OP wanted to know about no poo I think she'd have asked! I'm once a week. Still working on finding the right combination, but I have lots of people at the ready to tell me if I get skanky, honest!

Bold:paxillin I totally agree, I was half expecting people to be absolutely repulsed I don't wash my hair too often!!

About twice a week but sometimes less sometimes more.

Strangely I've discovered corn flour instead of dry shampoo and it's great. Does require some brushing in but great volume and shine without grease

Once a week for me and I begrudge doing it that often! It's thick, course and just past the shoulder. I've been known to go 2 weeks and no one could believe it!

One a week in theory. Often goes two weeks. Ten days would be ideal but I don't remember midweek. It's uncut, past hip length and the hair nearer my hairline is quite curly while the crown hair is only slightly wavy, so I can't wear it loose as it would look a mess and I just don't find it gets dirty unless it's down. I think it's because I'm not brushing the oil down the lengths like I would if I kept it loose.

I don't brush my hair as its wavy and thick and will end up frizzy and horrible. I only need to wash it because my scalp gets itchy.

I have really fine hair although fortunately have plenty of it so it doesn't look too bad. Because of this I used to wash it every day as I always thought it looked greasy the second day. In the past 6 months though it seems to have got less greasy and I now just wash every other day and it looks fine. I wonder if it is an age thing?

Daily. But it doesn't need styling/drying.

A couple of times a week. With reliance on dry shampoo for the last day before washing. Generally timed around trips to the swimming pool as I have to wash it then to be sure I've got all the chlorine out.

Three times a week. Its a short bob though which requires some styling to avoid looking mumsy so I spritz it with water and give it a zoosh with the hairdryer every day.
