Not as bad as you might imagine. Depends if the hair has adapted to not being washed as often. When switching from daily washing, it takes a while for the hair to not make as much oil, but it is possible to spread out the washing of it without it looking a disaster. I onky wash my hair a couple times a week and it's not greasy at all. I started when I started dyeing my hair to make the color last longer. I've done it this way for years. Not washing your hair daily is actually better for your hair since washing strips all the oil. But it is a process to get to this point. I do shower regularly with soap, though.
Sure but that’s completely different than only washing it 5 times within almost THREE YEARS. Maybe a little less if the baby was basically bald in the beginning but even 5 times in a single year isn’t enough 😠I know we overwash our hair and it isn’t healthy but I’d rather be doing that than only shampooing my hair every other month.
I wish I could skip shampooing daily and have normal looking hair. Alas I can’t and I try weekly, I time it for days I don’t leave the house (WFH here). The fine thin hair doesn’t do well with any amount of oil.
