Trichologist from Tyumen Explained Hair Washing Frequency
Choosing the right shampoo depends on personal hair type and scalp condition to maintain healthy hair.
The question of how often one should wash their hair continues to be actively discussed. Tyumen trichologist-dermatovenerologist Natalya Bruenok explained that the correct regimen is determined by hair type.
For oily hair type, characterized by active sebaceous glands, daily washing is recommended. «When a person»s sebaceous gland is very active, they will have oily hair. We recommend such patients to wash their hair every day. There«s no need to fear this: on the contrary, if not done, the condition of the hair will worsen. Ultimately, this can lead to hair loss and even baldness,» explains Natalya Bruenok.
For those with dry hair type, daily washing can be harmful, drying out the scalp and hair itself. They should wash their hair as needed, but not less than once a week.
The appearance of dandruff is often related to an improperly chosen shampoo. «If the shampoo doesn»t suit you, it will dry out the scalp, and it will flake. This is called dry seborrhea – colloquially, dandruff. But there are also deeper causes that come from within,« notes the trichologist.
