Poll: did you wash your hair today?

I wash it every work day and don't on the weekends.
I use a dandruff shampoo because my scalp tends to flake if I don't.

I don't use any hair products.
I'm about as low maintenance as you can get.

 

Yesterday was hair wash day. I have color treated hair and I live in the desert. I need to take care not to strip the color so after many years of washing it every single day, I now skip a day and once in a while two days. Best part of hair care in low humidity is how fast it drys. Other than the 2-hour appointment every 5 weeks at the salon, I spend very little time fussing with my hair. When I do wash it I use color treated hair shampoo and conditioner. Then I spritz in a leave in detangler, let it dry and give it a quick hit with the dryer and styling brush. If I have frizzies, I use a pea-sized application of Argan Oil. When completely dry and styled I hit it very lightly with a firm hold spray. Don't touch it again with any product until after the next washing.

 

Tonight I will. Natural oils are good for your hair. Every other day.

 

No, and I probably won't. Maybe not tomorrow, either.


Usually, I wash my hair on work days, and don't on off-days. The shampoo varies (every other bottle is Aussie), but the conditioner is always Aussie's 3 Minute Miracle. I use hairspray after styling now that my hair's shorter, but that's it for product. When my hair was longer, I'd just wash-and-wear, but now that it's short, I shape it with a curling iron (which seems weird...shouldn't I be putting less effort into shorter hair? But no, when it was longer, I'd often just pull it into a bun or bandanna and go.)

Despite coloring my hair, I'm lackadaisical when it comes to cut & color. When my grey roots start irritating me after a couple months, I'll get a box of color at the store, and I get a cut and professional color job twice a year or so.

 

I barely have any hair!
Some of it is natural thinning, and my wife buzzes the rest of it short for me.
I shampoo any day that I am cycling or doing other sweaty activities.
Otherwise every other day.

 

Every other day, unless I work out. Then I have to wash it. In Florida it was an every day, mandatory thing. I use either a clarifying shampoo and a Suave version of Aveda conditioner or Perfect Hair Day shampoo and conditioner, depending in what I'm going to do to it afterwards. Chicago is killing my hair. Always have to use a leave in, now. Static is a killer.

 

No. I have natural Curley hair so it's dries out and falls out more.

Typically ever other day, unless I do something dirty & sweaty like yard work. Use dandruff shampoo, usually H&S or sometimes generic. Hare care is pretty much limited to using a dab of Groom & Clean on the odd occasion I need my hair to look "nice."

 

I have gotten to the point of washing my hair every 3-4 days. However it gets rinsed out every day when I shower. I use a fairly heavy pomade that really doesn't rinse out. So I just top it off each morning to replace what has been rinsed and toweled off. It does keep my scalp from drying out and flaking.

 

I shower every morning and sometimes more (three showers yesterday). It's hot and humid here and depending on what I am doing, I need to shower frequently.

I usually wash what hair I have each morning using shampoo. I just rinse it the other times I shower in the day.

 

I washed my hair today. Probably won't tomorrow. My hair is fairly fine, lacks natural body, so I use a small amount of a holding product to compensate.

I wash my hair every other day unless it just needs it. I believe washing out the natural oils is bad for my scalp and hair.

 

being that I shave my head, I wash my beard everyday

 

I washed my hair during my shower this morning. I typically do whenever I take a shower, which usually ranges from once a day to once every couple of days depending on the weather and my mood.

 

That's something I don't do. I find that if I shampoo my beard it gets dry.

I still have my hair (and to think 40 years ago I used to curse having thick hair with a widows peak and cowlicks...........). Keep it buzzed down short for low maintenance. Hair coloring? No way. I see too many older guys who look ridiculous with their obviously died hair. Let's be real, who do they think they're fooling? My salt & pepper mix is showing more and more salt; no problem, grays are OK as long as the hair stays.

My beard is mostly gray. I wash it with Lever bar soap every other day, washing it every day makes it look (even more) wiry & brittle.

One of my BILs is two years older than me and has a full head of hair which is still medium dark brown; he is frequently asked what coloring he uses because it looks "very natural."

 

I wash my hair once a week with shampoo and conditioner. No more dander during winter season. I use baby powder at the roots if it gets really greasy/oily by the end.
