My friends hairdresser told her to wash her hair every second or third day. Why?
According to expert Marcy Harmon, of Cowboys and Angels in San Francisco, your hair needs a full 24 hours to restore its natural balance after washing. If you shampoo it every day, you won’t give your hair the opportunity to restore itself, resulting in dryness or even breakage. If the thought of waiting between washings doesn’t appeal to you, try rinsing and conditioning one day then shampooing and conditioning the next. If you workout daily, try vinegar rinses – available at most salons – instead of shampooing, and follow with a conditioner.
