Here’s how often you should wash your hair, according to a dermatologist.

Experts emphasize: routine should be individual.

The Hair Surgery Institute explains that the ideal washing frequency varies depending on:

hair type (oily, dry, normal, curly)

condition of the scalp

daily activities

type of styling products

preferred hairstyle (tail, bun, loose hair)

Therefore, there is no “universal formula” – it is important to monitor your own needs.

What are the risks of over-diluting shampoo?

According to experts, too long breaks between washes can cause:

accumulation of sebum

itching and peeling of the skin

unpleasant smell

folliculitis

temporary hair loss in people with sensitive scalp

Dermatologist Dr. Maria Marcos adds that for people with oily skin, stress can exacerbate oiliness, making washing even more necessary.
