washing hair
sorry idk what catagory to put this under but whatever.
every night i take a shower but every other night i use a shower cap and dont wash my hair. a few people at school said that its bad to wash your hair everyday. i know it strips the oils out but should i not wash it every night? should i not wash it 2 days in a row? my hair is really thick and after taking a shower, my hair gets frizzy. what are some ways i can prevent friz after taking a shower? also i straighten my hair every morning but i dont like burning it so much, i just hate having it so frizzy when i wake up. so, what are some ways i can keep the friz down after taking my shower (and the results will last long through the day).
it would be amazing if you can answer all the questions i had in that paragraph. thanks, ill rate high for anything you give me<3

Only if after the 2nd day it feels oily & stuff. Other wise you probably should wash it every day.

If you have curly hair, then you should wash your hair 2-3 times a week. Curls need moisture and oils provide that. Deep condition (put conditioner in your hair and leave it in for about 10 minutes) every week to keep your hair moisturized. This will also help the fizzies. When you come out of the shower, put some conditioner over it so it can smooth out the frizzies. Also, use heat protectant spray so you won't burn your hair when your straighten it.

hey!! yes, washing your hair every single day is deffinitely bad for you... it's been said in pretty much every magazine and by every hair stylist. it's not a big deal if you wash it every day for a couple of days, but it is nice to skip a day here and there just to keep it as healthy as possible.
the frizz you're talking about... are you talking about the kind that you end up with when you wear a shower cap and don't wash your hair? that pretty much happens because water vapor gets in the hair and gets the top layer a bit moist, and as a result frizzy. there are some good anti frizz creams and gels you could use to keep it down, but they can also make your hair greasy and result in build up.
i recommend going to wal mart or something and getting the remington "wet to straight" straightener. it's around 30 dollars, and it's the best thing ever. it does a really good job getting hair straight, and it has little openings through which all the moisture that causes frizz in your hair escapes as steam!! no moisture = no frizz!! :) i can't live without it!! haha hope that helped

I found you a great site. I didn't know for instance that washing your hair to much can actually MAKE it frizzy.
I'll give you the tips page and then the specific one for hair washing. It depends on your hair type according to the article. :)

dear washing hair,
while its true washing your hair too often can strip the oils from your hair some people find it rather well, disgusting not to wash it every day. if you are one of those people then just make sure that you use a clarifying shampoo at least twice a month. as for the frizz my hair does the same thing. i use shampoos that are especailly made for dry frizzy hair and if i plan to straighten it i use one that says its for straightening. a good brand for that would be umberto giannini sleek and chic. it works wonders. and one more thing try swtiching the brand of shampoo you use every two or three months. after a while your hair molecules build up an immunity to a shampoo. try it ! good luck !!!

well its fine to take a shower every day but its better if you wash your hair every OTHER day because if you dont wash it often enough, it'll get greasy. if you wash it too much you get really dry hair. my hair is also reaally thick and curly so i can definitely relate to you there. after i get out of the shower i towel dry it and scrunch it with anti friz stuf (usually john frida is pretty good) and then theres this cream stuff you can put on your hands and run it through your hair that maintains it. it says RX on the front, and is in a red bottle.
good luck!

okay well i have thick hair too and most people shower every day so it cant be too bad for you if you shower every day. my hair doesnt get frizzy so i cant really relate to you on there but maybe you should try 'Repair and Shine' because i've heard it really works and that it leaves your hair really good. :)
hope that helps!
