[HIGHLIGHTS] Healthy scalp: How often should you wash your hair?

Beautiful and healthy hair needs to be cared for. If you wash your hair too often, you are more likely to damage it and your scalp.

Depending on your skin type, washing is tolerated better or worse. Dry shampoo can help bind the oil and hide the stringy hair. Conditioners help condition the ends and retain moisture in the ends. Mild shampoos and washing your hair once or twice a week are sufficient for most curly haired people. It is enough to plan to washed your hair every three days. People with oily skin and therefore oily hair can wash their hair more often, but according to the experts at Ökotest, there should not be less than two days between washes. It's important to rinse the shampoo thoroughly, as cosmetic residues can irritate the scalp. And also to keep an eye on the lime content and temperature of the water. Because very calcareous and hot water also dries out the hair and scalp. Washing too frequently is particularly damaging to thin hair.
