I do every other day but use a dry shampoo when it looks oily.. sulfate free is definitley the way to go for shampoo.. better for your hair and the environment!

It depends lol .. I mean I usually try to avoid washing it for about 2-3 days after a wash so my hair's natural oils come out.. But it depends - sometimes it's earlier like when I work out.

usually once a week. Maybe less. My hair is really dry and curly though. Just depends when it starts looking oily. I had to wean my hair out of being washed every day.

Well first of all it all depends upon your hair texture. I have read something useful on internet and i m sharing it below:

"How often you need to shampoo depends on how oily your scalp is and your hair's texture. Oil-known as sebum-travels more easily down smooth, straight hair, making it look greasier faster. Sounds a little gross, but sebum helps moisturize and waterproof the hair shaft. This is one reason why curly or coarse hair is drier. When you wash every day, you typically strip off this natural moisturizer and then have to slather it back on in the form of commercial conditioner."

I would say every 2-3 days. You can use dry shampoo in between and just pin it back or put in ponytail. All depends too on your work and sweating etc

I'm a cosmetology school student and the professionals in my school recommend no more than 2 times a week.. washing your hair tlk much will cause your ends to be dry and brittle while ur roots will be oily. the oil from your roots needs to expand through the length of your. if you wash it too often you will end up with brittle, dry ends.

depends on ur type of hair

three times, and thank God that dry shampoo is a life saver. my hair is getting longer and i dont have greasy hair so i can go up to three days without washing it!

Usually every other day. Or you can co condition which is just using conditioner every other day instead of shampoo and conditioner. I have curls and they tend to dry out faster so the longer I go without washing the more oils I have in my hair.

I wash my hair everyday but it is better to wash it about every other day because your hair produces its own oils that its supposed to have.
