Dermatovenerologist told about the optimal frequency of washing the head
The frequency of scalp washing depends on the type of hair, scalp condition, level of physical activity and even climatic conditions. This was told on Sunday, January 26, by dermatovenerologist, trichologist of the clinic GG med Alexandra Golovenskaya.
"To begin with, you need to understand what type of hair you have. If your hair is oily, then it quickly becomes dirty, most likely you need to wash it more often - about once a day. In oily hair type, the scalp secretes more sebum (skin fat), which makes hair sticky," the doctor told Gazeta.Ru.
According to her, people with normal hair type (medium greasy) washing is allowed every two or three days. But it is important to monitor hygiene if there are problems with the scalp (dandruff, seborrhea or itching, etc.).
Earlier, January 22, trichologist explained the early appearance of gray hair in young people. According to Nagaytseva, we are not talking about white, vitreous gray hair, but about those strands that are lighter by two or three tones. Everything that concerns the age of 25+ is considered normal and is not early graying, it is a physiological change, the doctor emphasized.
