I don't there's anything wrong with washing it, just remember the more you wash the more the color will fade so try using a color protecting shampoo.

You're supposed to wait as long as you can. 2 days is great, 3 days is amazing but by then I'm all oily so I just wait 2 days and use dry shampoo. Also pulling your hair into a ponytail or wearing a bandana should help reduce the smell.

You can wash it whenever. If you're worried about fading use cool water and sulfate free shampoo.
