If you have a busy schedule and medium to long-length hair, finding the ideal wash schedule for your locks can be challenging. Many find that if they wash their hair too often, it can become dry and brittle as their scalp’s natural moisture is consistently scrubbed away. If your hair is not washed enough, it will become dirty and dull. To help you find the perfect middle-group, here are some tips to deciding how often you should be shampooing your hair.
Consider Your Hair Type
Just as there are different products available for different hair types, different routines are recommended, too. If you have thick or wavy strands, you can likely go longer without shampooing. Meanwhile, thin and straight hair tends to become dirty and oily quicker.
But, If You Have Dark Hair…
If you have especially dark brown or black tresses, consider washing your hair only twice a week (regardless of hair type). Shampooing dark hair too often can cause a loss of pigmentation, resulting in a mousey shade of color. Darker hair also tends to hold its shine longer, and washing it too often can diminish that shine.
Try Shampoo Powder
Try herbal shampoo powder, which is great for all hair types. The herbal mixture has conditioning and moisturizing properties, so you can cleanse your hair without it becoming too dry.
