Chances are this has become automatic: You get in the shower, you
wash your hair—whether it’s dirty or not. But that’s a mistake,
say the pros, unless your hair is very
oily. Over-washing will remove too much sebum (oil) from the scalp and
dry out strands,
even if you’re using shampoo touted as
gentle.
Speedy Solution
Most women need to shampoo only three
times a week—and less often if their hair is on the dry side. “Many of
my clients can
stretch it up to six days,” says Josh.
Less frequent washing means you’ll avoid not only excessive cleansing
but also excessive
blow-drying, another move that can leave
hair parched. If you feel compelled to do something between washes,
“rinse your scalp
with water and condition the ends only,”
says Gibson.
