If you shower before bed, the frequency of washing your hair depends on your hair type, scalp condition, and lifestyle. Generally, washing your hair 2-3 times a week is sufficient for most people, as overwashing can strip the scalp of its natural oils. Here’s a breakdown:
- Oily Hair: If your scalp produces a lot of oil, you may need to wash your hair more frequently—every other day or even daily.
- Dry or Curly Hair: If you have dry or curly hair, washing it too often can cause dryness. Stick to 2-3 times a week to maintain natural moisture.
- Normal Hair: For balanced hair, 2-3 times a week should keep your scalp clean without damaging the strands.
Remember, if you shower nightly, you can rinse your hair with water to remove sweat or build-up without using shampoo each time.
