Experts recommend washing your hair 3 to 5 times a week, depending on your scalp type and daily habits.
Proper scalp hygiene is crucial for healthy-looking hair. Experts agree that three to five washes per week are ideal, depending on hair type and lifestyle. Regular washing prevents buildup and unpleasant odors and makes subsequent hair treatments easier to apply.
Dermatologist Alex Docampo contradicts the assumption that frequent hair washing stimulates sebum production: "Many people think that frequent hair washing is harmful because it damages the hair, or that, paradoxically, more frequent washing leads to more sebum production and therefore oilier hair. But that's completely wrong." It's important to adapt your hair care routine to the needs of your scalp.
