How often should I shampoo my natural hair?
Reader,

If your hair is natural, I want to tackle some myths that may stop you from keeping your hair in great condition.
We love talking to our girlfriends and checking out YouTube videos, but many have perpetuated the myth that we shouldnβt cleanse our hair with shampoo.
I hate to say it, but many of your friends and favorite influencers are wrong.
The last decade saw the #CurlyGirlMethod takeover of the internet. This method encourages women and men with natural hair to avoid shampoo as much as possible.
Now, natural hair can benefit from taking a break from shampooing, but thatβs totally different from not shampooing your hair at all.
I know, it can be a little confusing, so let me explain.
You see your scalp is skin - itβs really just an extension of your face. Would you wash your face with just water or moisturizer? Of course not! That would create an environment for dirt and oil to clog up your pores and set you up for a terrible breakout.
The same goes for your scalp. Cleansing your natural hair is just as important as moisturizing and protecting it.
A balance between using products for natural hair and removing them will help you build a healthy hair care regimen that will yield a healthy scalp. And a healthy scalp will lead to healthy hair growth.
Ideally, you should shampoo your hair every 7-14 days even when youβre wearing βprotective styles.β
So let's start 2024 off right by having good hair care habits and choices.
