Is It Bad To Shampoo And Condition The Hair Everyday?

Hello, I am currently trying to grow out my hair (I am a man) and I ve been doing a bit of research. Every where I go I m told to wash my hair every 2-3 days, but my hair gets naturally oily to a physically disgusting point within 24 hours. Is it all that bad to shampoo and condition every day?

Hii , Welcome To HCM & Thanks For Asking Your Query Here

I have gone through Your query and will try to provide information you need on it

Only a small group of people needs to shampoo daily, like those with very fine hair, someone who exercises a lot (and sweats), or someone living in very humid place , If you have oily scalp, then daily washing is needed
but u can shampoo 3-4 times a week , in rest of days u can wash ur hair with chemical free substance like herbs extracts , Henna etc

As u said ur hair are too much oily u should not use conditioners as it contains oil in it and it is recommended for dry hairs

I hope it help
Thanks again
