It used to be in 2-3 days and the hair hardly grew. this month mine every other day or every day and noticed that they had grown very much. for example, they used to grow by 0.5 per month, but now 1.5-2. This is a shock for me. And visually noticeable.
Is there really a connection?
And then there is an opinion that washing is often bad

Hair growth, as well as density, is genetically laid, and depends on the state of health and not on the frequency of washing

Yes, both hair and nails grow faster from water, the more you hang out in the water, the longer it gets.)) But about frequent washing, when they say that it is not useful, they mean aggressive means: shampoos, scrubs for scalp, conditioners, etc. You can just wash your hair with clean water, if you are used to frequent washing. Or water the hair roots from specials. spraying with water sounds strange, but some men even water their mustaches so that they grow back faster. Hair is the same plant, without water / moisture it will not lengthen.

Hair Structure - Important Features
To understand in more detail on this issue, you need to understand the structural features of our hair.
To begin with, every healthy hair is covered with a protective film.
It contains water and fats or lipids (more information about the structure of the hair can be found here)
This film protects the hair cuticle (the very part that is responsible for their healthy appearance and elasticity) from any damage.
It is a healthy and intact cuticle that provides hair shine and smoothness, a beautiful appearance
How does shampoo affect hair?
Any shampoo when washing hair removes more than 80% of lipids (fats).
Their initial level is restored within 5 days, and on the ends of the hair up to 7 days, i.e. after washing the hair, the rods of our hair lose all their protection.
Imagine what happens to the hair if you wash it every day and still subject to styling.
There will be no protective film on them.
Moreover, such a “super-hygiene” of the head will lead to the fact that this water-lipid film will cease to form on its own, which will cause thinning and hair loss, and even baldness.
In addition, people who suffer from dandruff are often preferred to wash their hair daily, while making a fairly common mistake.
According to dermatologists, this habit can exaggerate the problem, because the hair constantly remains dry from an endless amount of shampoo, and dandruff becomes more and more.
Remember, if you want to have beautiful and healthy hair, you need to wash it no more than 2 times a week.
What should I do if my hair quickly becomes oily and you can’t wash it often ?!
According to professional opinion, if the hair does not withstand the interval between cleansing in three days, this can already be considered a disease and requires some treatment.
Perhaps the cause of increased secretion of the sebaceous glands may be impaired functions of various body systems.
For this, it is necessary to consult a specialist, find out the basis of the reason and eliminate it.
Well, if you are sure that everything is fine with your body, try to start by changing your diet and removing all harmful refined foods, trans fats, pickles and spicy foods from your diet.
Include foods rich in biotin (such as brewer's yeast), which regulates increased greasy hair and change your hair care to a more appropriate one.
The main ways to care for oily hair
So, we can highlight the main points:
- Shampoo Change
It was proved that the recommendations for the frequent use of shampoos with increased activity of sebaceous gland cells are incorrect.
Using mild shampoos for daily hair washing is harmful.
Eliminate from your use all those industrial shampoos that are advertised on TV.
Choose treatment for oily hair, reducing the activity of the sebaceous glands and restoring the pH of the scalp.
Best of all, if it is organic cosmetics, which will include:
Natural bases (more about them here), birch sap, cocoa bean extract, plant lipids, vitamin D, pantothenic acid, provitamin B5.
It is recommended to use balms with thyme and sage extract, conditioners with panthenol and burdock extract.
Rinsing with vinegar water can be used (1 tablespoon 10% vinegar per 1 liter of water)
- The use of dry ubtan - Ayurvedic shampoo
In order not to expose your hair to constant exposure to water and shampoo, try switching to the use of ubtans - ready-made dry shampoos that perfectly remove dirt, without violating the pH of the scalp.
For example, make ubtan or dry shampoo from a mixture of starch and flour and replace the usual shampoo with water-ubtan.
Just pour a couple of a pinch of the powder into the palm of your hand and apply on the hair, beat the mixture well on the hair and comb, so that all the powder is poured from them.
Do not believe it, but ubtan will remove all the oily greasy and hair will be like after washing with shampoo.
- Masks for oily hair
Use masks for oily hair:
- They may include such components: castor oil, kefir, calendula tincture, honey, yolk, blue clay, brown bread, decoction of oak bark, dry yeast, vodka.
- Take castor oil, yolk or brown bread as the basis.
- Add honey, calendula tincture or clay, yeast.
- Apply everything to dry, dirty hair for 40 minutes, warm and rinse.
- The course is once a week for several months.
Make such masks at least 2 times a week and the result will not be long in coming.
- Essential oils against high oily hair
Essential oils that are used in the treatment of oily hair:
You can add them to masks or carry out aroma combing or massage the scalp with them.
- Herbal medicine for hair
Infusions of the following herbs are very effective on oily hair:
Rinse with infusions of these herbs hair after washing your hair and with regular use, you will notice that they will remain clean longer and longer.
Freshly squeezed lemon juice effectively reduces the increased greasiness of the head. It can be added to hair masks or to water for rinsing 1 tablespoon per liter of water
- Vitamins for hair
Be sure to start taking hair vitamins
Conclusions and recommendations
In order to restore everything and bring the hair back to normal, it may take a single year of proper treatment and care.
Remember that frequent hair washing for several years leads to significant changes in the scalp and hair loss
Proper timely care, one of the conditions of which is washing your hair no more than 2 times a week, will allow you to avoid all these problems.
And if, with your hair, everything is still in order, be sure to take note of this rule for yourself, all the damage slowly accumulates and does not appear immediately.
I would be glad if this article is useful to you and you share it with your friends on social networks. Be beautiful and take care!

Keep an eye on the diet
To keep your hair clean longer, you need to exclude from the diet any fatty and fried foods, sugar and white bread, canned food. It is better to replace them with vegetables and fruits, dairy products, dietary meat and nuts. This will help reduce the activity of the sebaceous glands.
Use dry shampoo
To hide the oily sheen, divide the hair into strands and apply dry shampoo to the roots, like hair spray, at a distance of 20–25 cm. If the product is in the form of talcum powder, apply to the roots. Wait 10 minutes, comb your hair. Dry shampoo creates a sheath around oily hair, as a result, for some time the hair will appear clean.
Do not neglect accessories
If you have a bang, then the hairstyles with a scarf will look original. To do this, it will be enough to wash the bangs or stab it or somehow hide it. Hairstyles with a scarf look good on both collected and loose hair. They will also be a real salvation for owners of short hair. Various hair clips or rims with flowers will help mask dirty hair.
