And when you do, are you particular about what products you use?

For most of my life, hair washing was a daily affair because it was always oily so I used oil fighting shampoo and conditioner. At some point after menopause it began getting less and less oily, and these days it usually just needs washing twice a week in the winter. As a result I’ve changed my shampo and conditioner to moisturizing ones because my hair actually suffers from dryness now.

In the Summer I wash it more often because of the heat. When I’m in the yard/doing stuff outside I get sweaty and that includes my scalp.

Ron washes his hair every day. He’s always had oily skin and he uses an all in one organic hair/face/body wash. Because of his skin type he bathes at night before bed so the sheets stay cleaner longer.

What about you?
 

wash it twice a week..sometimes 3 .. I chop and change shampoos and conditioners.. never found any aside from store brand .. that are any better than others.. I've pretty much used all the well known names.

Currently I'm using Elvive Balancing shampoo.. & Elvive Extraordinary oil Cocoa Balm for normal to dry hair
 
Since I moved and we have limitless soft water from a 300 foot drilled well, I wash my hair twice a week using all natural products with zero silicones or harsh detergents and let it dry naturally. It’s thick, over 3 feet long and curly so takes all day to dry.

The last house we were at we had very hard well water which made my hair very dry so I washed it about every 5 or 6 days and had to use multiple conditioners and oils just to protect my hair.

I also use coconut oil and peppermint and / or tea tree oil .
 
Daily, using a moisture replenishing Argan oil shampoo, with an Argan oil conditioner.

I've used countless products over the years, and the current products I'm using are the best I have ever used. If I don't condition my hair I can't even drag a brush through it, plus conditioning leaves me scalp feeling re-energized.

As for showering/bathing at night, right before bed, same goes in our house. Both hubby and I have oily active skin, hubby more so than me, white bedding would yellow and stain quickly if we got lax in the area of a daily (before bed) bath/shower.

Not an option in our house but rather a necessity.
 
Once a day. I have the same oil production as when I was a teenager. A shower/shampoo is good for 7 or 8 hours.
I'm not particular about the brand or type of shampoo or soap. I think they all work the same. The shampoos that say "For Oily Hair" may have more detergent in them, but they all leave hair squeaky, so I just buy the ones that I like the smell of. 😊
 
I shampoo twice a week but wet and lightly condition daily. Until just a few years ago I needed to wash my hair daily. Any shampoo will do but I'm partial to Dove and Pantene conditioners. I towel dry and add Elvive leave-in condioner.

When swimming I first saturate my hair then put Garnier Fructis leave in conditioner on it. I shower and shampoo immediately after swimming.

How often do you wash your hair?​

Daily
Every morning
Usually after a great movement

I attain 'bed head' every night
Along with that, 'bed beard'......involving rivers of drool (hey, I sleep hard....REM hard)

Suave Daily Clarifying

It's the right price, in the right bottle, and doesn't have all those friggin' additives
 
Every morning when I shower. For a long time I thought that all shampoos and conditioners were about the same. Better products work better and I find that I use less so the cost may be similar in the long run. Really pricey products were no improvement so not worth the money.

Once every week or two, I wash with baking soda mixed into the shampoo and do the final rinse with vinegar. It takes off the built up products.

Besides cleanliness my hair has to be washed in the morning otherwise there‘s no way to control the thousands of directions that it’s going.
 
Daily because it feels great, not because it needs it. I only use conditioner, never shampoo ....ditched shampoo years ago after reading that the scalp is healthier if it isn't stripped of natural oils. Contrary to what most people think, hair is less oily after a period of time with no shampoo because the stripped oil glands aren't over compensating to replenish natural oils. I used Suave aloe and waterlily conditioner since it's cheap and I go through a lot of it to deep massage my scalp each shower. I used an Aveda deep conditioner if I blow dry for several days. Most of the time I let it air dry curly.
 
I wash my hair every day but since my hair is short (I’m a guy) it’s much easier for me than someone with longer hair. I also recently read a tip about little ways to save money and one of them was to dilute one’s shampoo with water. The article said as much as half water to shampoo as a ratio to use. I haven’t tried it, as of yet but I do admit to adding water to an empty bottle of shampoo if I’d run out and forgotten to buy more. Waste not, want not. 😋
 
Pretty well every day otherwise it looks like crap. I am getting it cut tomorrow so that should help. Shoppers Drug Mart has the shampoo "Monday" which is good. I usually use Live Clean or L'Oreal when it is on sale. I use a dry shampoo on some days when I don't have time to wash it.
 
Well, My hair is very long and very thick! I wash it a few times a week and use the cheapest shampoo and conditioner. "Suave".
Actually, I like it the best!
Once, a few years ago, I bought Pantene because it had such a pretty bottle. My hair started breaking and falling out!
As soon and I threw it away and went back to "Suave", my hair grew bac thick and healthy again! "If it ain't broke,"

That's right. I wonder how many people don't realize how much shampoo is left.
When my shampoo bottle is empty, I add water & shake it. Amazing - 10 more shampoos.
 
I read the title of this thread quickly, @Ronni
And I thought it said,
How often do you wash your hands?
