I have curly hair and typically wash my hair every 3-4 days. I'm lucky enough that my hair doesn't get greasy in between wash days unless I've used a product that's too heavy for my curls then it looks greasy. I like to do refreshes in between washes by wetting my hair down and using a leave-in to detangle and a styling product to redefine my curls

[@Hairromance]

Sounds like my perfect routine! And that refresh is the best for curls instead of a full wash routine 💛

Like you, I kinda just listen to what it needs (I know by touch and feel) but it also depends on what my week looks like. I’m a nurse and I typically work 3 shifts a week, including time in the OR. So I wash my hair at the end of every shift. When I swam a lot, I washed my hair after every day I was in the pool. I just had 10 days off from work and didn’t hit the pool and my hair only needed washing twice and it looked great and didn’t smell. It really just depends. I love the idea of dry shampoo but I have black hair and there aren’t any that work for me, unfortunately 😢

[@Hairromance]

yeah I'd be washing my hair daily after work, but I love that your hair readjusts when you take a break! Dry shampoo at night is a gamechanger for dark hair. And if you spray from further away, there's less white cast to begin with. But honestly, your routine sounds like it's working so I wouldn't worry about it.

I have shoulder blade length natural curly fine to medium hair. I dye my hair bright real red. I struggle with dry shampoo as it clouds the colour. I've looked for alternatives but haven't found anything. I still get away with a weekly wash even without dry shampoo. I find it's only my crown gets oily. Sometimes I just do a half updo to hide it 😊 x Love your channel and all the handy tips 😉

[@Hairromance]

Thank you! xx Yep you're so right about bright red, it's tricky to manage and maintain. Washing once a week is perfect! xx

[@carriejones9890]

I have waist long very wavy baby fine dense hair. I aim for every 2 weeks. I never get oily hair.

[@Hairromance]

your hair sounds lovely - and sounds like a super easy routine 💛

[@GinaMarieCheeseman]

I wash my hair once a week.

[@Hairromance]

the easiest hair routine! 💛

[@MiceAndRatEnrichment]

Great topic!!!! 🎉 that’s exactly what I do but I tend to be able to know it’s time when it’s difficult to style ❤

[@Hairromance]

Thanks!! Yep, sometimes you have to just admit it's time to wash and start over (though I will always just try a braid because I'm lazy!) 💛

[@MiceAndRatEnrichment]

@@Hairromance Me too ha ha I try and wait as long as possible but also because I colour my hair and otherwise it gets dry and brittle 💕

[@lisag.6599]

I have long, wavy gray hair in layers. I aim to wash it every four days, and on the fourth day I use dry shampoo. I don't like aerosols, so I have powders: one is a mix of corn starch and some cocoa that I make, the other is from an etsy shop - I alternate. But what I really like is flexibility; if I can't wash it for some reason, I do it in five days, or six, seven, even eight. I like not being enslaved to washing my hair at a certain time. I do have a clarifying shampoo for when it's needed, Avalon Organics lemon, and it doesn't seem to have sulfates but it works very well.

[@Hairromance]

Thanks for sharing your routine, Lisa! Your hair sounds beautiful and I love how it adapts to you and not the other way around 💛

[@amyhuston4261]

I tend to wait until the 7 day mark because I'm lazy. If i have something I need my hair to look better for then I'll wash a couple of times a week.

[@Hairromance]

Laziness totally guides my hair routine too haha! That's why I do so many braids, looks like an effort but really only took two minutes 😉💛

[@BinaBecker]

I wash whenever my scalp's feeling dry and itchy, which works out to roughly twice a week. But in summer, when my roots get sweaty, it could be as often as every other day. I let my scalp be my main guide, but when my hair's looking strawy and not holding a style, that's when I quit dithering and hop in the shower!

[@MzShonuff123]

Truth! If it’s hot out and I’ve gotten sweaty, my hair is getting washed more often than usual. I have a lot of dark hair so it can be really hot in summer. I typically get my hair cut in May (before summer starts in the States) to try to combat some of that problem

[@Hairromance]

following your scalp is the best way to know when to wash your hair! And agree that it's often better to just wash your hair when it feels uncomfortable 💛
