I used to have to do that, but I stopped washing it during the summer (I was on an archaeology dig and we got one shower a week) and it improved drastically. I only wash it two, maybe three times a week now and use a little baking powder in between if it is being unruly. Perhaps showering every other day isn't enough of a break for your scalp to adjust?

It took Mine awhile to get use To it but now I only have to wash mine Once a week, baby powder worked for me, it takes like 10 minutes for it to work but that's the only thing that actually worked, the alcohol in the dry shampoos made my hair look and feel worse

It depends on your hair. If you have thin, fine hair, or it gets oily quickly no matter what you do, wash it as much as you need to. The reason people say it's bad to do so is because it can strip your hair of oils and nutrition that it actually needs. I'd suggest a tea tree oil shampoo (organix does a good one), and some dry shampoo or baby powder. If your hair is dark you can DIY with some cocoa powder so it won't look grey or white :)

Well shampooing your hair every single day isn't good for you. It takes out the important oils that your hair needs and it dries up your scalp. So I would stick to washing your hair every other day. There are products to get rid of grease.

Try co washing (washing with conditioner daily) and shampoo once or twice a week. It'll remove the excess oil without drying out your hair.

I wash mine everyday otherwise I cannot manage my hair, I think it is fine to wash everyday depending on your hair type and also using a good shampoo. I always get compliments on my hair looking healthy. I have heard of using the baking soda and vinegar wash and also co washing, but for my hair I cannot style my hair unless I wash it everyday, I tried those methods and it didn't work for me. But somedays I only wet and use conditioner on my ends. Its just whatever works for you but for me I will always wash my hair everyday.

I don't think that's very healthy, doesn't it get worse?
(I wash my hair 2 times a week)

Oh and I think it helps if you wash it once a week for a few weeks (ofcourse when you don't have to go out) so your hair gets used to it. I think every other day isn't drastic enough if that makes sense.

It's a personal preference really. I wash mine pretty much every day, there are some times when I skip it but usually it's every day for me. My hair is fine with it. Sometimes I will just use conditioner instead and that works for me pretty well too. But if your hair is healthy I see no reason you can't wash it every day if you want. I wouldn't say my hair is super oily but my second day hair is greasy to me and I don't love dry shampoo so for me it's best to just wash it lol. It's just like exfoliating your skin, it's about what YOUR skin/hair can handle. Some people can exfoliate every day and others only a couple times a week. I think the same can be said for hair :)
