who's here watching this with greasy hair because of how they thought shampooing frequently is bad?

[@Channiej93]

Venus tbh i don’t understand why she’s saying its good to wash it daily!! Roughly all drugstore shampoos contain sooo much silicone and stuff that create buildup and greasyness, and worst of all greasy yucky stinky dandruff from cheap shampoos and conditioner D:.. my hair used to get dirty everyday from washing every 1/3 days with those shampoos. Now i use only silicone/paraben free shampoos from the hairdresser. I wash it once a week now and starts to get dirty at day 4/5(!!). She was probably paid to say this omg my head hurts from watching this video. Also, not everyones hair is made for washing everyday, i have curls washing it everyday would kill it off instantly

[@NurseSteve]

snickerwizard she didn’t say daily in the video she said as much as your hair can tolerate also she’s using the function of beauty shampoo in this video with no fragrance etc

[@sabrinapayal6101]

Venus you ain’t the only one b

[@Liu484]

Idk my hair is very greasy, but when I washed it everyday I used to get so much dandruff? It got a lot better after managing one or even two days after without shampoo or anything

[@elopix234]

Liu484 did Dr dray forget to mention that there are two types of dandruff? One for too dry skin and one for too oily/ seborrheic skin. If the surfactants in the shampoo are too harsh and you don’t re-moisture your skin on the scalp you get dandruff. if you’re prone to dry skin in general you shouldn’t be using harsh surfactants like SLS or SLES and don’t wash it every day. If you‘re somewhere in between dry and oily skin, and you strip your scalp off too much sebum your scalp will produce more and more so you get faster greasy hair.

[@jerseysophia1073]

I am Filipino and we wash our hair everyday. The weather in the Philippines is hot and humid plus the smoke and smog so at the end of the day, your hair is totally icky and oily. You will actually get teased if you don’t wash your hair on a daily basis. 😅🙂 I can also say that a lot of Filipino women have smooth, silky and healthy hair even if its washed daily.

[@keshakellogg5995]

This is good to know! My Filipina friends are hair shine goals! ❤️

[@thesunlessway]

It's silky and healthy because you wash it everyday. I'm white with 1a hair and I know what happens if I don't wash my hair everyday: oil and sweat buildup, itchy and inflamed scalp and massive hair loss. Same is for you Filipino, our hair is not that different. As long as your scalp is clean, your hair is healthy

[@malupet1142]

I agree with you even though I have wavy, coarse, dry hair. I noticed that my hair is more dry when I don’t shampoo everyday.

[@d.bcooper4991]

thesunlessway well, true but not entirely. You have to care for the actual length of the hair as well. The ends are the oldest part of the hair and are farther from the scalp, so you do have to baby them if you want to retain that length.

[@natesmom2244]

Yes!!! people always ask me how my hair is so shiny.. i wash it every day! I can tell when people don't wash their hair, it looks dry and dull, no shine at all and i literally don't understand why people don't want clean shiny hair every day?

I can smell it! It's so gross! When I go to hug her, all I smell is dirty hair. She said she doesn't wash it because she is trying to preserve the color. I just wanted to say, 'BUT YOU STINK!' but, of course, I didn't say that to her. If she only knew!

[@ItsMeCheryl1231]

Here is a helpful tip I use when applying conditioner: I keep a hand towel hanging on the curtain rod, and after I rinse the shampoo out, I towel blot the extra water out of my hair, then use my conditioner. The hair shaft will absorb a bit more of the conditioner than it will if it is fully saturated with water.

In the last two years, I have lost half of my hair due to intestinal failure and other illnesses, and it's so heartbreaking. I always thought that my hair was the only thing my genetic illness wouldn't take from me, but in the end, it did. I don't even want to wash it or brush it anymore because it makes me cry every single time.

[@sable7114]

Don't cry, I'm sorry. I hope that this is just a temporary condition and that you will heal soon and regrow your hair! I've said a little prayer for you.

[@zoeydeu2261]

I don't have time to shampoo my hair daily (I have very long hair) so it's faster for some of us to use dry shampoo for those inbetween days. A lot of busy new moms I know use it. Perfect for camping, or touch up oily roots at work or on humid day when we can't shower till we get home!

I was it only once a week when natural,but when I blow dry it I can stay 2 weeks cuz my hair is so dry. And if I do more it would be much more dryer

[@devany7358]

It made me feel sooo good to know I can wash my hair everyday! I can't for the life of me go past 2 days and even that is rare. You are so full of knowledge and can't tell you how much I appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. I have had an itchy scalp for years (no dandruff) and now starting to go gluten free and use scent free products. I don't have an oily scalp and I hate dry shampoo! I'm a mama of 3 plus 3 bonus kids and don't even have time to use heat on my hair. 99% of the time it's in a hair tie but now I notice my hair is thinning near my ears and hairline. I will definitely be trying these shampoos. Thank you again !

[@physiotherapistpaulina9340]

Totally agree, we need to modernize and accept silver hair is beautiful and looks far better with our aging skin tones. We are conditioned to "hide" our silver hair as women because of ageism.

Yooooo 🤣 I saw your comment and def had to watch the video just to see for myself! Literally

[@fefemyluv]

Love it! It’s amazing to see the differences between your routine and the routine for many POC, myself included. For instance, my hair will actually break and grow slower if I wash everyday and combing while damp is ideal. We are similar in the caveat that applying heat is a no-no and a nighttime bonnet is a must!

[@simpleton2090]

Same here. If I don’t comb or put any leave in or a spray or anything, I end up with a clump or matted curls. Ugh. 32 years olds and I still don’t know what to do with my hair. I don’t heat and I always put a bonnet but geez...this is rough lol

[@Abbyyena]

Same! As a woman of color, once a week washing my hair works for me when I wear my hair curly (3c-4a curls). If I straighten it, I might have to wash it sooner, but I try to stretch it. It’s easier for oils to travel down the hair strand when it’s straight. That’s why women with straighter hair may have to wash more often. Every day washing would cause me hair breakage. It works for my hair and it’s almost waist length.

[@MiVidaBellisima]

Thanks for letting me know there’s not much here that’s applicable for me lol I’m sure it’s still an awesome video though!

Wish I knew this sooner ! I used to wash my hair every other day until I heard that it’s not good to watch my hair that often. So I got in the habit of watching my hair only twice a week. Result: hair loss, my scalp hurts on the second day post wash, itchy scalp, breakage, dandruff like crazy, my hair grows way slower. All in all, don’t get hair results from unprofessionals. Rather, listen to your body and it’s needs.

[@TheLovelylynnie]

I want to emphasize the goal of washing your hair, to cleanse your scalp not the mid shaft and ends. I hardly think it’s a myth, not to wash your hair everyday, but rather to stop people from drying out their ends. As a stylist, I do still to actually tell my clients refrain from washing hair everyday, because the washing and heat styling everyday is what drys the midshafts and ends because a lot of people don’t know how to wash their hair properly. Wash and cleanse the scalp, not the ends. Condition has enough to clean the ends without drying them out.

Try using the Rogaine, aka minoxidil.

[@esterixis]

@@enchanted1800 I used Minoxidil shampoo/conditioner for 6 months; didn't do a dang thing for me! My hair is thinning along the front hairline & the part. Happened post-hysterectomy. Embarrassing! Now use a fiber powder when I go out in public. Bummer!

[@elopix234]

esterixis what shampoo and Conditioner? If you need it you should use the fluid or mousse. The agent has to go through the skin to function. That’s why you shouldn’t wash your hair at least 4 hours afterwards. You would wash the minoxidil away without it being able to work. That’s why shampoo and/or conditioner will never work for hair loss. First you need a substance which can penetrate the agent through your thick skin like propylene glycol or alcohol in high concentrations you won’t find that in Shampoos or Conditioner. Second like I said you don’t leave shampoo or conditioner sit for hours on your scalp. So this will never ever work.

[@mshausfrau]

I enjoy all of your videos, but this is my favorite. I have been struggling with my hair in perimenopause, probably doing too much with it in order to bring out the waves.

Argan Oil Shampoo and Conditioner is working beautifully for my hair. It has never been so soft and silky before and no frizzies. But first to wash my scalp I just use the Johnson's Baby Shampoo on my scalp only, rinse it out and then start with the Argan oil on my long hair. I don't and never did use any heat on my hair but I do a naughty.......color it slightly every so often. I get my hair trimmed maybe 1/2 inch at the bottom every 2-3 months. Dr. Dray I wish I had the time to wash my hair, as you said everyday, but I'm a surgical nurse and sometimes stuck at work for 2-3 days so no time.

[@cahyaparamita5711]

Note that she said to shampoo our hair as often as it can handle. I practically spent so many years trying to shampoo my hair less frequently because of the internet community but at some point realized that my scalp would get VERY VERY itchy at the night I don‘t wash my hair. I could see my hair falling out on my pillow to, which is not the case if I do wash my hair every night. It‘s horrible. My hair does get dry because of it but my scalp is sooo oily (and so is my face). I switched to a shampoo with pH of 5,5 (from sebamed) and it doesn‘t dry my hair out even though I shampoo my hair that often.

[@marianne6373]

I wash my hair at least every other day, and it helps my scalp so much! (The only reason I don't wash it every single day, is that it takes forever to dry lol).

[@robinbroadwater2147]

Are there any known adverse effects from the laser, such as it causing hair loss? There are 3 subjects that I would like for you to cover: 1) Nutrients typically needed to maximize the health of each hair type, if they vary from one another. 2) What an ideal haircut should accomplish, and what type of damage might be evident in a bad one, like hair constantly feeling damp). 3) How can you tell when facial bumps are heat rash or something else, and, how can you tell when they're serious enough to warrant a doctor's visit? Thanks for such informative videos.

[@sunklee]

THANK YOU for talking about the importance of cleansing the scalp frequently and how keeping the scalp clean contributes to overall hair health. I work for a well-known beauty company that is especially known for its haircare. We have a camera that takes a greatly magnified picture of the scalp, and I can’t tell you how many gross scalps I’ve seen: scalps that inflamed, flakey, and are crusted with sebum and dead skin cells. I’ve seen customers with thinning hair because of their addiction to dry shampoos, which along with sebum and dead skin cells, was clogging up their hair follicles. I had a customer say that she only shampoos “once a week to protect her hair.” It was on the tip of my tongue that if that was true, then I should only wash my face “once a week to protect my skin” and I wear a full face of makeup to work. 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ Absolutely agree with all the other hair tips, including avoiding heat styling as much as possible and keeping the ends healthy with conditioning. I use a silk pillowcase to avoid friction, but now I’m intrigued by your silk hair bonnet. My hair is about the same length as yours.

[@courtneyjames5495]

Olivia Gawlik not true. Your hair grows from your scalp and is continuously growing. Unless you have some sort of underlying condition, where your experience zero hair growth whatsoever. But if that’s not the case then your hair is growing. Yes, genetics plays into the rate at which you experience hair growth, hair thickness etc. so your hair might grow slower than someone else’s...but if your hair isn’t growing past a certain length then you are most likely experiencing breakage at your ends. Which comes down to what you are or aren’t doing to take care of your hair.

Taking MSM and/or putting it in your conditioner for a few minutes makes your hair grow and fast! I was skeptical but it works, in a matter of a four days to a week. Must be organic and good quality.

[@anelalala]

I've been dealing with Seborrheic dermatitis since I was a kid. It's on and off. If I don't dry my hair, my scalp is warm and wet so it will grow bacteria. When that bacteria and sebum combined, it creates odor. So I need to dry my hair, especially scalp (with moderation). Your hair looks great though!

[@tracy_cakkes]

@@tracy_cakkes No, I try not to wash every day because I feel it makes my scalp dry, but if I don't wash for two days, my scalp gets smelly. So I wash every other day :)

[@brooklynsbaby4367]

They say that air-drying can actually be more damaging since your hair swells up when it's wet. Personally, my hair takes ages to dry so I always help it with the dryer on a cool setting, still does the job and my hair doesn't look fried. My hair feels very weak after air-drying, but if a person's hair dries fast and they don't have scalp problems, it's probably okay to air-dry.

I have wavy hair. I used to wash my hair every other day, but I've "trained it" to only need to wash it 2 times a week. I've been doing this for a year and a half. I find that my hair doesn't get as oily as quickly anymore. Honestly, my hair only gets oily on day 4 unless I used a hair product that was too heavy (like a curl cream). I might wash my hair 3 times a week depending on when I exercise or the buildup. Once every two weeks I also use a scalp scrub/clarifying shampoo. I regularly use a scalp serum. I'm using one now that contains urea and HA. This togheter with using sulfate free or gentle sulfate shampoos and my silicone free conditioner really helped my hair health. Sadly I still don't have a lot of hair, but that's just the way it is. Your hair texture definitely plays a part in how often you should wash your hair. I'm never going back to washing every other day

I have always washed my hair every night. I have soft curls and fine hair. I never brush my hair. I use my hands only and a comb to part the hair if I want to part it. I also sleep with a satin bonnet that you can buy on Amazon. I use shampoos and conditioners without silicones. Now, in my mid 60's, I allowed my natural gray hair to grow and my hair is in great condition. Also, I don't use heating tools nor blow dryers. I allow my hair to dry overnight inside my bonnet. Less is more for beautiful hair. Biotin also helps together with jojoba and marula oils.

If your hair and scalp are naturally dry but doesn't feel itchy it doesn't seem necessary to wash every day. Washing hair when your scalp is looking greasy, feels itchy, oily, sweaty scalp or flaky is the right time to wash.

how to actually grow out your hair 1.) don’t bleach your hair it’s more harm than good 2.) get trims every 6 months or when you have bad split ends 3.) take collagen or multi vitamins 4.) don’t overwash or strip your hair with shampoos (once a week to wash it.) 5.) don’t use heat or limit usage 6.) sleep with a silk pillow case 7.) use wet brushes when damp or wide tooth comb and don’t use a towel, use a shirt or microfibre wrap 8.) leave it be!! 😘

I’ve had waist-length hair for so long now, but it started really becoming unmanageable and I started getting it cut & trimmed more often. It still grows back so quick. My hair is naturally nearly jet black but I’ve been getting it highlighted for about 25 years. I don’t do all-over single-process hair coloring but I get it foiled in many tiny strands. My natural color looks gorgeous on so many women but it just makes me personally look washed out, so bleach is the one thing they’ll have to pry from my cold, dead hands.😩Luckily I have my father’s genetics in the hair department so I seem to tolerate it well. Oiliness, aging + hormones and thinning at the scalp since my last hormone treatment are a different story, though. I stopped wearing it up so much (which was nearly all the time) and that has definitely made a difference. My baby hairs are all white. At 37 with people usually thinking I’m still in my 20’s (I don’t know WHAT they’re seeing but it’s not what I see😂😩) I’m just nowhere near ready to give into the gray. Though I kinda wish my whole head would just hurry up and turn so I could try more natural methods of dyeing. My grandmother used to dye her hair with tea to keep her natural red. I love that idea! This is the 2nd video I’ve seen in a week on Function of Beauty. Definitely seems intriguing.
