General Guidelines
- Oily Hair or Scalp:
Every 1–2 days — to control excess oil and prevent buildup. - Dry or Curly Hair:
Every 3–5 days — curls and textured hair need more moisture, so washing too often can strip natural oils. - Normal Hair:
Every 2–3 days — enough to stay fresh without over-drying.
Lifestyle Factors
- Workout often?
You might want to rinse or co-wash after sweating, even if you’re not doing a full shampoo every day. - Use a lot of products?
More styling products = more buildup, which may mean more frequent washing or clarifying.
Pro Tips from the Salon Chair
- Scalp Health First:
A clean, balanced scalp promotes healthy growth. Don’t let fear of overwashing lead to neglect. - Try Dry Shampoo in Between:
Especially great for fine hair or for stretching days between full washes. - Clarifying Shampoo Once a Month:
Removes buildup from hard water or styling products without stripping your hair daily.
