Washing your hair frequently is the worst thing you can do. Do your own Google search: " Daily washing hair harmful?"

States "Shampoos damage your hair, so you should check the ingredients for sodium laurel sulphate, sodium laureth sulphate, and propylene glycol, all of which are harmful to health.

Sodium Laurel sulphate is a dangerous substance which foams readily, making the shampoo or gel thicker and therefore seem richer. Sodium laureth sulphate is a less harmful form, but both damage hair follicles and cause hair loss.

They also harm the eyes, so stinging is nature's way of warning you. Tests show fetuses subjected to these substances do not develop functioning eyes, and they are implicated in the formation of cataracts in adults. Propylene glycol - antifreeze - is a known skin irritant and is thought to cause mouth ulcers and even oral cancer when used in mouthwash. It also damages the kidneys and liver.

Most of the chemicals we put on our skin are readily absorbed into the body, especially nitrates. One study showed that one shampooing can put more nitrate into your blood than eating a pound of bacon". Read much more about frequent washing dangers on this same site.

i wouldnt say everyday... it damages ur hair in the long run... letting ur hair breathe for a day or two is good... ur scalp secretes natural oils that keep ur roots healthy and makes ur hair grow faster... i would say 2 days a week wud suffice... but if it gets really oily, then maybe equally spaced- 3 times a week...

It depends on your hair type. Usually it is best to wash it everyday..if not twice a day. But sometimes..for those who have extra dry hair and a sensitive scalp..you might have to go a day with out and just use like a leave in conditioner. If you have really oily hair..you might want to take it easy on the conditioner and depending on how your hair looks and feels..wash it every other day.
