The frequency of hair washing is a common dilemma for many people stepping into the shower. Dr. Dawn Davis, a dermatologist at Mayo Clinic, points out a growing trend online favoring less frequent shampooing for both hair and scalp health.

According to Dr. Davis, while we often prioritize the benefits of shampoo for hair, it’s crucial to remember its importance for scalp cleanliness too. Neglecting regular shampooing can lead to difficulties in keeping the scalp clean.

Dr. Davis suggests that for individuals with darker hair, shampooing once or twice a week with a couple of days in between can help prevent dryness. As for others, shampooing every second or third day is recommended at a minimum. Some people may even need to shampoo daily, depending on the cleansing needs of their hair and scalp.
