Is daily hair washing harmful?

[babygirl]

My hair is very oily and I have to wash it daily. Is this harmful for my hair?

[Louise14]

I think so, but I do the same

If I don't wash it then I feel dirty and like people are looking at me because my hair looks greasy lol

Even if it is bad, knowing that wouldn't stop me, it's one of those habits that I get very paranoid about.

Its harmful to wash your hair everyday? I didn't know this! I do it everyday. If I need to stop I will, I need my hair as health as it can get.

washing hair everyday weakens them....do tht alternately

I wash mine everyday with a gentle sulphate free shampoo with no problems.I'm sure colouring and heat styling do more damage than washing it.

I only wash my hair two to three times a week. If I do it more often, its all dry and frizzy.

If you wash your hair more than once a day, then you should make sure to use conditioner to keep it from becoming too dry and frizzy.

I don't think there's such a thing as washing hair too often. It would be more harmful to not wash it. The scalp/hair can get dirty on a daily basis, just from being outside, cleaning the house.
