How Often Should You Wash? (By Hair Type & Lifestyle)

Why Frequency Matters

Wash too often and you strip lipids; too infrequently and you trap sweat, oil, and styling residue. Use this baseline and adjust ±1 day as your scalp tells you.

Fine or Oily / Daily Workouts

  • Frequency: Daily or every other day
  • How: Lightweight, sulfate-free cleanse; conditioner only mid-lengths to ends
  • Shop: Professional Shampoos (balancing/volumizing) + Light Conditioners

Medium / Straight or Wavy

  • Frequency: Every 2–3 days
  • How: Focus on scalp massage, hydrate lengths, finish with a lightweight leave-in
  • Shop: Hydrating Conditioners + Purifier Micelar 12-in-1

Coarse, Curly, or Coily

  • Frequency: 1–2× per week
  • How: Gentle cleanse or co-wash, deep moisture, scalp massage, low heat
  • Shop: Rich Conditioners + Multi-Benefit Leave-In

Color-Treated or Damaged

  • Frequency: Every 2–3 days (stretch when possible)
  • How: Pair a repair shampoo with a strengthening/softening conditioner; finish with protective serum

Signs You’re Over- or Under-Washing

  • Over-washing: Tight scalp, tangly lengths, dull ends → add leave-in, extend wash day.
  • Under-washing: Flat roots, itchy scalp, greasy mid-day → clarify, then hydrate lengths.
    • Shop: Clarifying/Detox Shampoos (use 1× weekly), Repair Treatments for balance.

Routine Builder (Easy Internal Links)

  • Starter sets by need: Repair Duo, Hydration Duo, or Color Care Trio.
  • Add-ons: Purifier Micelar 12-in-1 for between-wash refresh; Serum to seal ends.
