Many of you have came into the salon saying ‘I didn’t wash it bc I heard it was better’. Well, the answer is no. You definitely should shampoo your hair at the scalp to remove build up. Whether the build up is from products or environmental factors, they block your hair follicles and affect hair growth. In addition to it probably being a little stinky.

Having said that, there is a limit as to how much you should actually shampoo. You definitely shouldn’t shampoo everyday as that would dry out your hair or strip your hair of its natural oils, products and color. That can contribute to it being frizzy and dry. People with thick, coarse hair can go 3-5 days between shampoos while those with finer textures can go about 2-3 days between shampoos.
