10 Tips That’ll Save You the Trouble of Washing Your Hair Every Day
Washing your hair too frequently can cause more harm than good according to Lynne Goldberg, Director of the Boston Medical Center Hair Clinic. Constant washing causes your sebaceous glands to produce more fat. As a result, you get into a real vicious circle.
We at Medictic took interest in this issue and prepared a list of tips that’ll allow you to wash your hair less often and still continue to look gorgeous!
#10 Watch your menu
To ensure that your hair stays clean longer, remove any fatty or fried dishes from your diet. The same goes for sugar, white bread, and canned foods. Replace these products with fruits and vegetables, dairy, lean meats, and nuts. This will help reduce the sebaceous glands’ activity.

To conceal greasy shine, divide your hair into strands and apply dry shampoo to the roots like a hairspray, from a distance of 8-10 inches. If the shampoo is in the form of talcum powder, apply it to the roots. Wait for ten minutes, and then comb your hair. Dry shampoo will create a shell around the greasy strands that will, for a time, make your hair look cleans
#8 Don’t neglect accessories
If you have a fringe, a headscarf can provide interesting hairstyling options. All you’ll need to do is wash your fringe, pin it up, and disguise it in some way. Headscarfs look good with collected or loose hair. They can also become a real salvation for those with short hairdos. Greasy hair can be further concealed by means of various hair pins or headbands with flowers.
#7 Pay attention to water temperatur
When washing your hair, use warm or tepid water. Hot water increases the amount of fat secreted by the skin. After you’ve washed your hair, it’s best to let it dry naturally.
#6 Put your hair into braids
Braids of any type do a good job of disguising greasy hair roots. The thicker the weave, the better. We advise you to do a slight backcomb at the crown to conceal the more visible part of the unwashed hair. Make sure the braid doesn’t turn out smooth. A small amount of sticking-out hair will help hide the staleness.
#5 Comb your hair before bedtime
Comb your hair before going to bed. Once you’ve settled on your pillow, pull your hair back in such a way as to arrange it along the upper edge of the pillow. If the length allows, make a quick ponytail or a loose braid.
#4 Change your parting
Switch your parting from one side to the other, or replace a straight parting with a diagonal one. The reason for doing this is simple: our hair gets used to being arranged in a certain fashion, which leads to loss of volume at the roots. Also, it tends to become dirtiest along the parting line. Shifting the parting gives your hair volume, a new look, and an appearance of cleanliness.
#3 Avoid flat hairdos
Try not to give preference to smooth and sleek hairstyles: they’ll make your hair look even more messy and greasy.
The best option would be to slightly backcomb the hair at the roots to achieve extra volume, and then secure it in a shell or a bun.
#2 Wash your brushes
Don’t forget to clean your styling tools regularly to prevent residues of surface skin fat, conditioner, and styling substances from gluing your hair together. Brushes and combs should be washed once a week in warm water with shampoo or soap.
#1 The right way to wash your hair
Dry wet hair with a T-shirt instead of a towel to smooth your frizzy hair.
Don’t scrub your scalp. Use your fingertips to gently massage shampoo into your hair.
Roots should never, ever be conditioned.
Wring out your hair before applying hair conditioner.
