Daily hair washing: Yes or No?
It is not necessary to do so daily, preferably not, as shampoos contain harsh chemicals that can strip the scalp of essential oils, resulting in an excessively dry scalp.

However, use a mild shampoo that is suitable for your hair type.

Dandruff is classified into two types: oily and dry. Dandruff that is oily is harmful because it eats away at the pigment in your, whereas dry dandruff falls off. The former can result in a variety of problems such as pimples and pigmentation, as dandruff on the scalp inhibits blood circulation. Avoid using heavy oils. If you have oily skin, simply massage it for 15 minutes with lighter oil, such as olive oil, followed by a hot towel treatment, and then wash it off. Ginger juice can be applied to the scalp as a home remedy. Allow it to dry overnight and then wash it off. Additionally, shampoo your every other day with a mild anti-dandruff shampoo. Consuming green vegetables is beneficial to the hair.
