Most people shampoo their hair almost every day. But washing too frequently doesn't necessarily mean better hair health. Today AloEx shares useful information about the ideal shampooing frequency per week.
Comparing people of the past with those today, one difference stands out: modern people shampoo far more frequently, with some washing daily. Yet it's clear that modern people also face more hair health problems — hair fall, dry or damaged hair, and premature greying — some of which stem from improper hair care habits, especially shampooing. When you shampoo too frequently, the appropriate amount of natural oil on the scalp gets washed away, leaving the scalp dry and causing damage, including dandruff.
So if you love washing your hair every day and are experiencing hair health problems, try adjusting your habits by reducing the frequency — about 3–5 times a week is considered appropriate. Although sometimes you may feel that going longer between washes makes your hair greasier and greasier, the scalp's own natural oil will actually replenish the oil that was washed away and restore balance to your scalp.
