Are you supposed to wash your hair every day? If not, why?!


Question:
Answers:
washing you hair everyday can cause it to become dull and lifeless, not to mention hard to manage. Your hair needs the natural oils that your scalp produces to make it grow and become strong. A good amount to wash it is about 4 times per week, and for hair that is very oily, about 5 times per week.

i dont think so, but i do. i heard that some shampoos wash away nutrients in your hair that keep it silky and smooth.
every other day is good for my hair, its a little long, stays healthier.
You can if you use really gentle and moisturizing shampoos, but in general, it's best to wash about every other day so that you don't dry out your hair.
I wash my hair everyday. I use Biosilk Moisturizing Conditioner, and Chemical Repair. And wow, I have awesome hair. I don't have to use styling products or anything else. So it is allright, as long as you use decent stuff with which to wash.
It depends on your hair type, its strength and texture.If you go out on a regular basis then it is best to use a mild shampoo every other day otherwise wash your hair twice a week.
No. You're only supposed to wash it a few times a week. Shampoos and conditioners along with your hairspray or whatever you use to "primp your hair", will strip your hair away from the natural nutrients and oils it possesses.

I agree with Bacon and Diamond Butt. You could also ask, how often should a baldheaded person wash their hair?
You're not supposed to because everytime you wash it you take vitamins and stuff from it. Did you also know that you're not supposed to put conditioner on all your hair? You're only supposed to put it on the ends of your hair. Use shampoo all over your hair and conditioner only on the ends.
White people yes. Black people no.
It depends on what kind of hair you have. If you have really thick hair, chunky, dry hair then no. If you have really straight, oily hair than yes. It really just depends on what type of hair you have. Next time you get your hair done talk to your beautician.
you shouldn't wash your hair everyday because your stripping your hair of natural oils and vitamins. your scalp can also suffer and become very dry. it not only drys your hair out but if you blowdry and straighten your hair everyday when you wash it you can further damage the hair structure causing it to become weaker. you can avoid this by using the right shampoo for your hair type.
