I have mega curly hair and if I wash it to often it gets dry and frizzy. Now I only wash it Monday night and Friday morning but my mum and boyfriend both think it's super gross but I thought it was normal haha. Also how can I stop my hair smelling? It doesn't smell bad but it doesn't smell great after 3-4 days either.

I heard from many curly hari girls that washing their hair to much dryes it out really bad! I was my hair 2-3 times a week! Nothing gross about that!
A lot of dry shampoos have a scent to it - I love the scent of my batiste. But dry shampoo might dry out your hair!
I saw CoffeebreakwithDani talk about a hair scent oil she used in her hair, I will see if I can find the name of it!

I only wash mine once a week lol. There are hair perfumes you can use, or like Sabrina said, dry shampoo or hair oils.

Every 3 days - this might suit your hair as well if 4-5 days makes your head/hair smell?

Well I have super curly hair too and I wash about 2-3 times a week. Its not gross. Our hair is prone to dryness so shampooing it often isnt very good. If it starts smeelling you can either use dry shampoo as Sabrina mentioned and wear a bun or braid, or just wash it earlier. I usually go 2 days with my hair down then the third day its in a bum.

My best friend has super dry, curly hair. She only washes maybe once a week, but she conditions in the shower almost everyday. I would use dry shampoo and yummy smelling anti frizz serum!

What is hair perfume? I know dry shampoo, which works wonders, but I have never heard of hair perfume.

I have natural curly hair and if I do wash my hair everyday it gets dry 😁 I wash my hair every week

*once a week. One reason why is because I wear sew in extensions I mainly wash my extensions and the hair I leave out. And @Viva hair perfume is just perfume you spray on your hair lol

I have naturally like kinky waves, but I style it most of the time. I don't have super dry hair and I still only wash it every 3rd day :) but I use dry shampoo and just products that smell good

Viva, hair perfume is essentially fragrance formulated for use in hair. I use Pink Sugar, but that might be too sweet (smells like cupcakes) People always compliment me when they hug me..lol
I know Fekkai has an entire line of them and Bath and Body works has one as well.

This is awesome thank you :) I usually rinse my hair with water so my curls come back after sleeping with them so I didn't see how it was gross. I'll definitely look into the hair perfume thanks! My hair doesn't really get greasy it just feels dirty ya know? I'm hoping to eventually only need to wash once a week

I have super curly hair as well, and normally I'll wash between 1-2 times a week. it's so much easier and in between I use not your mothers dry shampoo! and it's not at all gross, some people need to wash their hair more often than others depending on how much oil their hair produces!

I wash 2 times a week at most. I don't really have set days or anything, just kind of whenever I feel like it's time haha. I don't think it's gross at all, as long as you aren't waiting so long that it starts getting super greasy or smelly!

Ashley you should try and reduce it to every second day at least. over washing your hair like that can make it produce more oil because it produces excess oil to keep up with how much your stripping with the shampoo. you could try washing it every second day and using dry shampoo in between days.
