Washing your hair every day may seem like a no-brainer, but it can strip your hair of its natural oils. This is especially problematic for curly or dry hair , which relies on sebum to stay hydrated. Fine, straight hair, on the other hand, gets dirty more quickly and requires more frequent cleaning.
Solution :
- Curly or dry hair: a weekly shampoo is enough.
- Fine, straight hair: Wash as needed, sometimes daily.
Sports activities: a determining factor
Problem: Sweat can harm your skin if it’s not removed quickly.
After a workout or a hot day, a shower becomes essential. Skipping this step promotes breakouts and can weaken your skin barrier.
Solution :
- A quick shower after exercise prevents irritation and refreshes.
- Use gentle cleansers to avoid damaging the skin.
Weather affects your frequency
Problem: Weather conditions change your body’s needs.
In summer, heat and sweating require more frequent showers. In winter, cold air dries out your skin, and repeated showers can make this effect worse.
