The eternal question: should we wash our hair every day or just once a week? Should we apply shampoo only to the scalp or distribute it throughout the strands? Should we alternate between wash days or follow a consistent hair care schedule?
The truth is, there’s no one-size-fits-all rule for how often you should wash your hair. The reason is simple: there are different hair types, each with their unique characteristics, as well as varying daily routines, distinct climates, and individual habits. Therefore, the ideal approach to hair cleansing should be personalized, tailored to each individual’s reality. You may need to wash your hair every day, or maybe not, and this depends on your hair’s structure and your daily routine.
The frequency of washing can be related to various factors such as sports activities, scalp oiliness, extreme weather conditions, exposure to dirt and pollution, workplace environment, and how we protect our curls on a daily basis. Ignoring or not properly addressing these factors can have consequences for the health and appearance of our hair.
