I wash my hair every 2nd night, but one of my friends told me to only wash your hair once a week. I tried that but my hair only went extremely oily! help?

Every other day is what's ideal. Once a week is not good for it! Hope that helped! Xoxo.

It's different for all people. If you have thick or curly hair you don't really have to wash it Often , but what you're doing sounds fine so don't worry.

Depends on your type of hair. If it gets greasy, try every other day. If you can go two or three days without washing it and it looks fine, then do that. The type of hair your friend has might just be the kind that lasts a week without needing to be washed. If your hair is fine how you were washing it before, the every 2nd night, then just stick with that:)

I wash my hair every second night as well because otherwise it gets greasy and gross. The amount of times you wash your hair a week will vary for everyone. Maybe your friends hair doesn't get as oily. Wash your hair whenever it starts to get greasy.

My mom owns a salon and she recommends washing hair like every week, and you need the right shampoo and conditioner

I wash my hair a little less than once a week but by the third or forth day I put my hair in a ponytail or bun until I wash it again.

I have really thick curly hair and I can get away with washing my hair once or twice a month with shampoo. I usually just "wash" my hair daily with conditioner. So it depends on your hair type.

Depending on your hair type! Just make sure not to over wash, if not it will frizz and dry out. Too oily is not ideal as well! Why not wash your hair only when you feel it's oily? Hope I helped! xo Carabelle.

It's different for everyone. I personally I wash every other day or maybe 3 but it's always good to have some dry shampoo around for those days that your just gets too oily. I like to use the tigi dry shampoo.
