Washing Hair

Hi everyone,

So I was in the shower this morning and thinking what I was going to write about tonight and then I just thought to myself how good my hair was feeling and how easy to manage it had been lately. So then I thought that I would explain the many importances of washing your hair frequently.

The first obvious point is the way it looks. Because I'm still a teenager, my hair gets quite oily fairly quickly and that's not attractive. But even if you have dry hair, the longest I think someone should leave between washes is 2 days. If you leave it longer than that then your hair will start to look dirty and be more difficult to clean when you do wash it.

That brings me onto my next point. Dirty hair is always much more difficult to manage. To use an example, I once left my hair for 3 days without washing it (I know - gross) and when I did wash it, I had to shampoo like three times and I had to use a lot of conditioner. Due to the oil that occurs naturally in my hair, when it accumulated over the 3 days, the shampoo just wouldn't lather that much because a lot of the water just ran off my hair. It will also take longer to clean when you do clean it as the shampoo will have a harder job.

I'm not suggesting that you wash your hair like twice a day because that wouldn't be good for your hair either. Eventually it will wash out all of the natural oils in your hair that makes it shine and it would turn your hair dull and unattractive. You need to strike the right balance between washing it too much and too little depending on the type of hair you have.

Another point is that most of the time, when you wash your hair, you wash your body as well so it encourages you to be clean and fresh.

Just one last thing that's not really a point related too much to this post but to have your hair in the best condition, then you really need to pick a shampoo and conditioner that is for your hair type. Like if you have dry hair then pick out a moisturising shampoo and conditioner and use a moisture treatment maybe once a week. And for oily hair use a balancing shampoo and conditioner.
