How often do you wash your hair?

I workout and get sweaty every day so I shower and wash hair every day. Whatever my wife buys for shampoo I use. Suave works fine, is the least expensive. Conditioner? Not terribly necessary but occasionally.

Aloe gel and jojoba, sounds wonderfu carouselsilver. I might try that, do you buy them separately and mix them yourself or does it come ready mixed?

I buy them separate, then mix them in a small bowl with a wire whisk; a lot like making salad dressing, lol. sometimes I add a drop of essential oil for a nice smell. I like doing it this way because you make just enough for that day and it doesn't get a chance to go bad.
 
Before covid I'd wash my hair every morning because its natural wave/body only lasts for a day after having been washed, then it gets straighter and straighter. But since working from home, I wash it every other day (unless I've been mowing/weed whacking or otherwise getting gross). I've been using the work-from-home time to use up old shampoo/conditioner that wasn't good enough to use when going to the office (i.e., brands that turned out to apparently include wd40 and make my hair weirdly slick and straight). Unbelievably (to me anyway), its been 17 months and I still haven't used it all up. I am getting closer and hope to within a month or two start using up leftover shampoo from the guest bathroom.

Once I went on vacation and forgot to bring shampoo. I tried using bar soap on my hair (long hair). BIG mistake! REALLY big. I couldn't get a comb through it and had to have one of the motel employees scrounge up some shampoo and conditioner for me because I couldn't leave the room looking like that. Never again.
 
When I worked I washed my hair daily but now that I am retired it's probably three times a week. I use Matrix "So Silver" shampoo so my silver hair does not turn a brassy color and try to limit the styling products I use between washes. I get my hair cut every four weeks so it's fairly easy to care for.
 
Two or three times a week....I used the purple shampoo for gray hair but I mix moisturizer shampoo with it as it is drying.
