How often should I was my hair?

well im not sure about African american hair. but DONT listen to ppl to tell you that you should wash your hair everyday, this is not good for your hair becuz it washes away your hairs natural oils that keeps your hair looking healthy and shinny. I wash my hair every 3 days and it works for me. everyones hair will get oily faster or slower so you should wash according to your hair type. You dont want to over wash your hair becuz you will dry out your hair. it you only need to wash your hair once a week, then thats fine. you can always wash your body in the bath tub or in the shower without getting your hair wet. if you want to you can just use conditioner on your hair and skip the shampoo. and then once a week use shampoo to really clean your hair.

Well I have 2 black nieces when they have thier hair down, they wash it about 3 times a week unless they do something to get it dirty.

my daughter is mixed and i do hers usually every 2-3 days...

me as a white woman, wash mine every other day, washing it every day dries it out.

dont wash it everyday!!!the less you wash it the better!the natural oils condition it, if you wash it every day it will remove the oils before they can work and your hair will dry out.....dont wash it until it starts to look greasy...once a week is very good

Once or twice a week is totally fine. Sometimes you can get away with merely conditioning it. I actually end up washing my hair every week or (ahem) two weeks, and it actually looks better down the road.

As an African American I wash my hair every 2 weeks when it's not in braids. This is because our hair can get dry so some of the oils have to stay in it so that is won't break off as easy as it does when it's dry. You should also use leave-in conditioner it helps.

Well it really depends on what kind of products you put in your hair. If you use gels, moouse, or hair spray. I would say everyday. If you use a lot of oils and Greece I would recommend at least 3 times a week. If you don't put many products in your hair, washing your hair once or twice a week is just fine.

Use a good conditioner to keep your hair from drying out. Because shampoo strips your hair of your natural oils.Which is why African Americans don't need to wash there hair as much.

I don't think that white people should answer this, because they don't understand Africian American Hair. And they tend to get grossed out that we dont wash our hair every day.

use my tips :]
