Im sure i have a fear of greasy hair! & How often do you wash your hair?

[Casey18]

I used to wash everyday, but it started falling so the doctor told me to wash every week..

Yes, washing too often is detrimental for falling hair. I can even push up to four days without washing my hair. It doesn't look really good the 4th day but it's a huge progress considering i used to wash my hair daily.

I wash my hair every other night, and every time i walk past a mirror on the second day; in the house i look into to it at my roots to see if my hair is greasy. And in differen't lightings it looks differen't; in my room it- 24/7 is greasy looking but i know the bathroom light is the best lighting and there i can tell if it is actually greasy. Is anyone else like this? - I would never go out the house with greasy hair either, i hate it so much :/

I'm with you on this one! I also just feels ick especially on hot days. I am so jealous of other people who can go 2 more days with their hair looking normal...sometimes even better! Since mine gets so stringy and greasy looking and I HAVE to wash my hair, I condition it first, shampoo, then condition again. On some days, I skip the shampoo and just condition. Light conditioners are sometimes enough to keep it clean and some grease out.
