How often do you wash your hair?

[MrsMontague]

I was at the hairdressers today, as my colour was fading again.

She asked me how often I wash my hair and I said every other day and she said that's why my colour fades so quickly, and that she only washes her hair once a week

Her hair always looks fab though, whereas mine always looks greays and awful by the 3rd day. I won't leave the house at that point!

How often does everyone wash their hair??

Once a week. Twice if I have been really sweaty at the gym.

Every other day. But I am a greasoid (and 47, don't think I'm ever going to grow out of it).

I rinse and condition my hair every day as it is curly and I look like a scarecrow if it isn't washed. I only shampoo my hair every 7-10 days.

Twice a week.
I have curls - any more often and it dries out.

Every other day, otherwise it is greasy and horrid. I don't colour mine though so I don't know whether that would make me do differently.

I wash mine every day but I have always had a very greasy scalp and skin. In my case I know it's not caused by over -frequent washing. As a teenager I used to leave it for several days and it was horrible by day 2.

In my defence I use very little shampoo and conditioner, just enough to freshen it up.

Every day if I want it to look reasonable. I don't know what I do in my sleep but I go to bed with lovely sleek hair and wake up looking like Jamie Afro and no amount of straightening makes a difference.

Every five days it gets washed. It only ever gets brushed after washing too, so only gets brushed every five days.

my hair looks it's worst the day it has been washed.

up til recently every day but have been trying to train mine to every other day but am convinced it smells - have discovered batiste dry shampoo for dark hair though which has been my saviour.

Have a friend who washes hers once a week - so jealous thats an extra half hour in bed every day.

Batiste is brilliant.

every 1/2 days as mine gets greasy quickley

once a week, twice max. Please where do you buy the baliste for dark hair rose water I would quite like some its fab stuff.

Every fucking morning.

Otherwise I look like this

Every other day or else it looks really dark and greasy. At a push if I use Batiste I can tie it back for an extra day but feel a bit messy. thislittlesisterlola you can buy the Batiste for dark hair at Boots.

Every 2 to 3 days though occasionally 4 days.
Dry shampoo is one of the best things invented!

i have curly mixed race hair.
i never shampoo.
condition every 4 days or so.

Everymorning aswell-My hair sticks to my forehead by midday if I don,t, and it smells horrible-funnily enough I do not get greasy skin aswell, my skin is quite dry but my hair.....yuk . I try not to let people get to close if I haven,t washed it!!!!

Every day. I can't imagine anything else. But I have very fine hair and the tiniest bit of grease makes it look lank. It depends where you live too. If you live in London, just a short walk to work might make it a bit dirty.

lola brunette or black hair

If they dont stock it in your local store you can order it for delivery

I'm another that only conditions my hair (twice a week) I've never washed DS's hair with shampoo (or conditioner) and he's nearly 4 and his hair has always looked good (which is why we only rinse it) So I decided to swap to conditioner for mine and it looks so much better. I reckon shampoo is the biggest swizz going

Every morning

Daily, because like Rebeccaruby above, I also have very fine hair that greases up quickly. But I can make an exception on a day when I'm not leaving the house. The other way to get round it is to use dry shampoo - you don't need an expensive one, Batiste is fine - to get a day or two more out of it. This does work better the lighter your hair is, though, otherwise it shows up on the scalp.
