Hi 👋 guys,
So for people that want a deeper dive on the topic of how often to wash etc. I reviewed an article of a board certified dermatologist called Angela Lamb. She advises that how often you wash depends on a lot and the scalp adapts/ regulates itself depending on what you do. If you wash it more often it tends to produce more oils. If you go abit longer between washes, your hair and scalp might experience a break through! She says some people must wash more often and others can go for months!!!
Here is the full video ruclips.net/video/WQlJVchRppA/видео.htmlsi=NF8Vjb1dSotPQyw3
thanks
When I wore perms I washed my hair every 3 months because I didn’t need to wash so I don’t see why instant different with my natural except for the fact that I use more product on my hair now, so I wash every two weeks, but I’m working towards once a month.
Hopefully this is the case. I have a dry scalp so I’ve started washing twice a week to see if I can produce more sebum
Different strokes for different folks. My hair and scalp love the weekly washes, hair is longer than it's ever been, scalp is in better condition and my hair is like silk.
Love this for you!
Same for me , when I didn’t wash it weekly it didn’t retain much length. Now hair is healthier with weekly washes and trims.
@@CoilyDiariesThank you. Just somethings I do/don't do, I never detangle as my hair is never tangled I just comb or brush very gently. Before I comb, my hair is oiled to limit any breakage. I don't use coconut oil or Shea moisture my hair hates them. I use salon quality products more expensive but a little goes a long way, had my shampoo and conditioner for nearly a year. Luckily, I live in a soft water area so that is a massive plus. Once say ever 6 weeks I use a clarifying shampoo. I don't oil my scalp so the sebum can flow.
@@feliciabonner3848Amazing isn't it, I have never seen my hair grow so fast and it's just so silky.
@@LivingInTheShade nice 👍🏽
Love watching your videos because your topics are always interesting. I agree with you regarding frequent hair washing. If you consider the hair practices of women about 100 years ago, they had long hair. Washing hair wasn't something that was done frequently. Actually bathing was once a week for many households. Oils and boar brushes were used to cleanse the the scalp and rid the hair from dust, etc. It doesn't sound hygienic to our standards today but people did what they were able during that time. I actually read up on the products women used during the early 1900's even earlier and animal fat was used like beef tallow and lard. Peppermint and other herbs were used to mask the smell. I believe we do way too much manipulation to our hair and rely upon too many products. Keep it very simple and cleanse, condition when needed. That has been my practice roughly three to four weeks before I wash my hair. I definitely noticed shine, strength, softness and growth. Indigenous women probably are our best examples from the ages. No hair dryers, no heating tools, no scissors just nature lots of fresh air, physical activity and whole foods. Take care and blessings to you ❤
Sis this so true! What’s worse is being looked down upon because you don’t fit in today’s standards of cleanliness. How did people of old have such luscious hair with no conditioners shampoos and fancy tools. Even straight hair women wore protective styles all the time. Ever since shampoo, our hair has gotten dryer, shorter, frizzy and dry! Am glad my mind is free to explore the best ways to look after my hair 🌺😍
Folks need to wash their hair when it's dirty. Is this not common sense? And also when it's not dirty but incredibly dry that it needs major water infusion. And also when there's product buildup (dirty) scalp build up (dirty).
This is correct! I think the confusion comes a lot as people get confused or don’t really know when their hair is dirty or has scalp build up etc unless you know your hair pretty well, you could be caught unaware. Hence my discussion about sebum build up, lifestyle etc
Morning ❣️
I just washed my hair last night. I do wash every two weeks. Your hair is beautiful, shiny. Have a good weekend God-Bless you 🪷
Love it sis! Blessings to you too🌺
I now wash my hair about every two weeks…I would love to do once per month but the itching is intense in the third week.❤
got it! hydration on the scalp and use of essential oils helps me with that issue.
This is what I'm aiming for. Trying to find a routine that will work for me for 2 weeks at a time.
Yes, agreed, the less manipulation you do to your strands, especially if you're a coily, curly girl like myself is better...Thentrue key is scalp health and moisturizing...Totally can relate sis...Very informative video....
True!
My sister!Istarted washing my hair every week. My scalp started itching so bad!! I stopped after watching your video on moisturizing hair. You really helped me a lot!! Thank you so much!!❤🇿🇦
I'm so glad! 😌
You have to do what works for your individual head of hair. I wash sometimes once a week or sometimes two times a week.
Washing my hair is self care so I enjoy the process. You have retained length doing your routine so keep doing what works for you.
I agree sometimes detangling can make wash day discouraging and that is why I try not to leave my hair for long periods before washing.
Hi Rosie, I understand this concept. How do you style your hair?
@@CoilyDiaries I do twist, large ones. With that method I finger detangle is easy on wash day and I can limit the use of brushing . I hate finger detangling🙈 I give it to you for finger detangling. I guess I am too impatient .
@@rosieamelia5955 Ahahhah I don’t necessarily love it either 😅. It’s just works. I do it less and in very small sections overtime to stop the overwhelm. Am a huge advocate for people finding what works for them!
I loved this video😊
I agree with you! I can’t do weekly washes either my hair will be on the floor for sure! For me, personally, I wash my hair every 3 to 4 weeks on a schedule, this is when I can tell my hair needs a cleansing because it starts to look dull and my scalp too. I consider myself a minimalist natural, because I believe in low manipulation and moisturizing daily with a conditioning spritzer--works like a charm! I never have to take down my protective style to re-moisturize.😊
Thanks for sharing!! I know lots of my old time subs have struggled with weekly detangling!
@@CoilyDiariesyes! I was one of them, but I found out it was a too much protein issue that was making my detangling process a headache! I’m using V05 now and I’m having the time of my life not struggling with detangling anymore!😂 who knew that it would’ve been products that I’ve been using for the past 5 years; design essentials was always my ride or die, but my hair is changing with age and I’m seeing the difference from not using it, but I love their conditioners paired with V05 it makes my hair feel amazing😊
I really enjoy your videos.
Thanks hun 🌺
Hi! Sorry I am a little late to the party as this video posted 11 days ago, but I'm here now! Thank you so much for posting it. It has been a blessing to me. Washing every 2 - 3 weeks works best for me, yet I feel guilty for missing the 2-week deadline even though my hair is telling me she is fine. Why? Propaganda!!!! I have heard so much that you should wash weekly and definitely don't go more than 2 weeks. Now after watching this video and reading some of these opinionated, judgmental comments, I refuse to be entrapped by rules that don't work for me. I choose to embrace knowledge and listen to my hair moore. I also choose to embrace and appreciate that different people have different needs. Because of the points you made in this video and sharing why/how you made the decision to wash less often, I feel so much more confident doing what works for my hair. I feel good knowing that it is ok if I don't get around to washing my hair for 3 or even 4 weeks. It's ok! 😊
Sis! Propaganda shocked me! The beauty industry trying to sell shampoos have a propaganda alright! Please don’t allow your scalp to build up with sebum . Use massage, essential oils, boar bristle brush etc to keep it clean and healthy. Assuming you have an average amount of sebum. Video coming soon on this🌺
weekly washes works for me ❤.I remember doing biweekly washes and my scalp didnt like it plus the shedding/breakage was too much.
totally get this! no one size fits all for sure!
Video came right on time. I'm still in the TWA stage but will implement this.... especially since the water where i live is hard
Nice 👍🏽 at TWA though, you can wash your hair more because sebum can build up easier due to only have a short length to cover. Also detangling is a so easy!!🤪🌺
@@CoilyDiariestwa here and the amount of shedding and breaking every wash day is alarming.
But my scalp is screaming before the 7th day.
I am unable to retain length past 1” for over 4 months now.
It’s exhausting, really.
I wash my hair weekly in braids and do the full wash day you're describing once a month. That works well to balance my hair and scalp health.
Nice 👍🏽
You’re spot on. When I realized I didn’t need to wash my hair every week, a weight was lifted!! Ideally I would like to wash my hair monthly, but with a small child and a newborn, I’m currently at 3 month intervals. It helps that I do not have scalp issues, and I keep my scalp clean in between washes. As the children get a bit older, I’ll be able to go back to every other month or monthly. But I enjoy the breaks and I look forward to doing my hair when I finally do! Great video. ☺️💜
Sis!!! My life exactly! And I guess that’s what I was trying to say in this video. It’s not beneficial or even necessary to wash weekly for everyone! How do you keep your scalp clean between washes?
I spray water with aloe and tea tree oil on my scalp, and other times I’ll also put a little black soap on the pads of my fingertips and massage my scalp, and follow that up with water. It’s working great for me! ☺️
@@A_Wilson wow! Humectants n teatree has been a game changer for my scalp too
Indeed!!
Great video! I posted a video about this on my channel 2 months ago. I noticed back in June that my ends were thinning and I figured that it was too much manipulation. I went from weekly to shampooing once a month.
Boom 💥
I honestly love your teeth 😍
Ahahah thanks🌺
I think the style you pick has a lot to do with it. Wash n gos dry me out 😮😮
Fair enough. I haven’t tried many of them at all
Lovely video. Is that your own hair?
Thanks 🙏🏽 no it isn’t 😅
I am finally at this point too. I realized that the wash day weekly is not working for my past bra strap natural hair but not yet at waist length.
Don’t get me wrong it got me far but I have discovered better ways to clean my scalp weekly, introduce water saturation, and maintain moisture without doing a full wash and detangle (gently)session.
And most important (to me anyways), is I have found suitable truly protective hair styles that facilitate my 3-4 weeks between full blown wash day and still look groomed for life, work, church, etc. I think it’s important to stress that I still do weekly maintenance and scalp care. Just no more 3-6hr full blown wash day routines.
Feels so good when you find what suits you! How do you keep your scalp clean between washes?
I agree with not washing your hair everyweek. I find that out on my own. I have thick hair but fine strands so it is not necessary for me to wash my hair everyweek. That is why it is important to know your hair and write down how your hair reacts to certain products ect. I wash my hair every 2 weeks if needed. Like you said everyone is different know your hair and treat it accordingly. Thank you for the video..😊
Love this routine for you! I feel like fine natural hair also needs quite some TLC🌺
@@CoilyDiaries yes for sure😉
One method does not fit all, but I 100% agree with you. I wash my hair every 4-6 weeks with the 6th week being my sweet spot. If I go longer than that my hair just does not accept moisture from my products and gets dry. I try to prevent the dryness from happening and so if I wash at 6 weeks I don’t have to worry about product buildup keeping moisture out. My scalp tells me too….if it is too itchy I may have to wash it around 4 weeks but that is rare. When I use new products sometimes my scalp protests after a while. I am trying to gain the courage to try washing my hair in my twists. I think you method may work…but lord…I am scared to try but want to try. I keep between 30-35 twists in my hair. I think your method will work for me as long as my hair is hella moisturized and sealed with my olive oil and castor oil mixture and allowed to dry before retwisting. We will see if I am brave and will do it in a few weeks. Thanks for your awesome content!
Totally 👍🏽! and once you find your sweet spot stick with it. if your current method is good and giving you results, no need to change!🌺
Well if it works your method would simplify things more and I would better access my scalp and I can re-do my twists a little at a time. That would be a game changer for me.
❤👏🏾😀
Thanks for sharing🎉
You are welcome
I think the scalp needs weekly attention. Whether its shampoo or scalp sprays that cleans the scalp. I tried to stop washing every week and i ended up with the worst scalp problem and had to buy medicated shampoo to stop with the itching. I do understand about the dryness, but i counteract with prepooing, deep conditioning, and adding oils to my deep conditioner. Its a lot of work, but it was a lot of work clearing up my scalp itchiness.
I hear you! how long did you wait between washes after you had been washing weekly previously? If the change is abrupt the scalp freaks out! I can go for a good two weeks without anything but after that I need to pay my scalp some attention 😅
@@CoilyDiaries it was a month.
A week after wash day, my hair is just getting back its manageability! I mean, it's fine to work with the first week, week two is better, but week three is the sweet spot. I wish my scalp could handle once a month, but it lets me know it needs a clean.
totally understand that week 3 softnesssssssss!
So, today I washed my hair in my mini twist for the first time in a month. It took 1.5 hr because I did a wash, clay wash, deep conditioner and then moisturizer. I started to retwist the front only today and there was so little shedding....and the hair feels amazing. Going to try and keep it at once a month washing with the hydration and moisturrizing every two weeks. Does that sound about right?
does your hair stay moisturized for 2 weeks? if so then yes. otherwise weekly moidration especially when still figuring things out
@@CoilyDiaries I will definitely monitor weekly. Thank you
3:25 - it's not just you who has experienced damage from the #30dayhairdetox 👀
Currently I'm mostly just washing my scalp unless I need to do a treatment, remove a particular styling product, or I want to straighten. Seems to be working well so far 👍🏼
I love that your regimen is working for you! We definitely all have to personalise❤
Trust you to have info on this specific topic😅! Great work troubleshooting 🌺
@@CoilyDiariesI haven't tried the method personally, but if you look up the issues surrounding curly cuts you'll find some good vids on the topic. It's been an interesting one to watch
@@esthertjones yeah I’ve seen them around! So sad 😞
What product line is that on the table behind you? Just curious 😊
It’s called the Australian organic
@@CoilyDiaries thank you 🙏🏾
Everyone has to do what is best for themselves. For me personally I can’t, it’s about personal hygiene. I couldn’t care less about long hair.
Like I shower everyday, brush my teeth etc. I wash my face two times every day and those products are expensive.
We have to honestly stop this narrative of not washing our hair weekly. It’s about hygiene for me.
Also you can develop scalp conditions from not washing your hair.
Everyone has to educate themselves.
Also I have an interesting question. Why grow that beautiful hair and cover it with a wig?
I want to stop the narrative of having weekly washes as the standard and any one who doesn’t do this is unhygienic. Before the natural hair movement weekly washing wasn’t even a thing! I care about long hair so my routine will be different to yours. Most of my audience have length retention goals too. Hygiene is relative, for someone who washes their hair daily or several times a a week, your weekly washing routine could be seen as unhygienic
My hair is this long because of protective styles! Wigs are part of that. You may not know this but am a new mum and wigs have saved me a lot this year! Let’s try to just support each other as women. At the end of the day each of us will do as they please 🤷🏽♀️
PS: there are ways of cleansing the scalp that don’t require shampoo. So not shampooing does not equal dirt. Look up Angela Lamb, a dermatologist who actually says going for weeks without washing can be beneficial to some. I’ve done a video on this
@@CoilyDiaries sorry if my comment offended you. By no means am I telling you to change your routine. I just genuinely feel it’s not hygienic to not wash the hair for such long periods . We have to remember we go to the bathroom, we are out in the environment. We lay our heads on our beds. Unlike many WOC, I have always washed my hair weekly from I was a small child . My mom didn’t have shampoo she used soap but our hair was washed and cleaned and put into plats. We didn’t have access to abundance of water. My views might be different based on how I was brought up. Enjoy your night , day etc.
@@Ag13463Doing this would destroy my scalp. I wash every two weeks. Different hair types require different things and different scalp types. My hair has never smelled or been dirty doing it that way either. People who’s hair gets oily wash daily often and see not doing that as unhygienic because of how not doing that would effect them most black peoples don’t wash their hair often and you really can’t tell who washes when because there is no smell and we know how to keep our hair healthy. There is no one answer for everyone if so we should all wash everyday for the utmost cleanliness
I wait at least 3 weeks or a month to wash my hair.
Works for me too🌺
You have me continuing to toy with the idea of washing my hair less frequently. It's just hard for me to make it past 8 days, particularly given I don't really have time to do it M-F, so if I miss the weekend I have to go another week entirely usually. But we'll see.
Why is it hard for you? Scalp itch? Next Saturdays video will be all about how to transition. Hope you enjoy it 🌺
@@CoilyDiaries My hair starts getting so dry that only standing under the shower for about 5 mins gets the water in enough to rehydrate it. No matter what I do, it just can't go more than about 8 days without needing that level of hydration. But I don't really have a desire to just rinse my hair and skip the wash if I'm going to still have to completely style right after. The shampooing only adds about 10 mins, but skipping it means the conditioners I apply don't work as well.
@@IndigooceanOrg this makes sense! Hydration is important! I have found that hydrating and moisturizing my hair with heat works great between washes!
First to comment?!?
Let me grab my popcorn for this… my hair hasn’t been washed in however long. 😂😂😂
enjoy it!!!🌺
❤❤❤
❤️
I also stopped washing my hair weekly coz it damages my hair now I wash my hair 2 times a month
🌺🌺🌺🌺
What do you recommend if you workout 5 days a week with sweat and dirt buildup in your scalp?? I tried to do every 2 weeks and my hair would be dry from the sweat buildup.
Also just daily sweating , I live in the Caribbean and I sweat alot, so I do weekly washing . When I wait longer it just results in itching . But I decrease manipulation as my hair is usually in twist or plaits, and i wash n dc with those in. I guess you can use a scalp clean product or acv and water using cotton pads
I guess it depends on your goals. If you don’t care about length, just wash however often you need to. If you want to retain length, I’d put it in cornrows or some kind of style that doesn’t require detangling with every wash! Hope this helps 🌺
Do what works for you, if washing once a week makes your hair thrive (like mine) then do so. I also work out and the sweat is too much to handle and, as you said, dries the hair because of the salt in it. But working out is great for our overall health and to promote blood circulation to the scalp. So, you might use a gentle shampoo and wash you hair in chunky twists to avoid manipulation.
Edit: I've seen plenty of women with tailbone length hair that Wash once a week and retain length, you just have to be very gentle.
Co-wash your hair in between washes and do regular protein treatments.
I’m a fitness instructor. I work out a LOT and sweat from my head. I wash my hair weekly. To me, scalp health trumps hair health. My hair is dead, my scalp is alive, an extension of my skin. If you don’t take care of your scalp (cleaning it) you will develop all kinds of problems. The problems that I experience from manipulating my hair every week are minimal. I enjoy my hair. I wear it how I want and do it as many times as I want. I’m just fine. The only two set backs that I have had have been from color and that darn 30 day detox.
I don’t understand why if someone is so against what she’s saying, why do you even watch the video? You see the title. Just keep scary. Simple.
I wonder about that too. the energy to comment under a video that doesn’t help you🤷🏽♀️
Why can’t there be a discussion?
My hair gets extremely dry from product build up because I wash every two weeks. When I bc I washed weeklyand my hair grew and was moisturized. I stopped because I didn't want to do it weekly. Alot of long haired Black women on yt said they got to that length by weekly washing. Even if they no longer do it. I'm going back to it, because my hair hasn't been growing. I don't think using a gentle shampoo or diluted shampoo or even a diy shampoo ex Naptural85 has an African black soap shampoo recipe. A water filter might help hard water issue. Do what works for you.
Sorry meant to say I don't think it hurts to use a gentle shampoo....
for sure if it works please keep doing it! I present my findings and my experiences so I understand everyone’s routine all look different 🌺
gentle shampoo doesn’t hurt it’s the work that comes with wash day and how unnecessary it is for my hair. plus once I wash my hair takes atleast a week for me to get it back moisturised the way I like it
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Christina randall is all i heard

Black women please wash your hair. infrequent hair washing propaganda is the last thing that’s needed rn considering most bw still think it’s okay to wash hair once a month or even less than that 😬. At that point throw Hair health out the window it’s just unhygienic. You may not smell it but I promise the rest of the world can smell your dirty hair and scalp it’s one of the worse smells 🤢 get a shower filter, use a very mild moisturizing shampoo, stop detangling in the shower, find inexpensive conditioners and deep conditioners that come in larger sizes, maybe stretch the week to 10-12 days. So many things to consider before this. If it’s that hard to detangle you may need a trim.
Fba are not black we're brown hair brown eyes brown skin makes us brown ppl.....black means death .......
My issue is not your opinion or the fact you disagree. It’s the stereotype that if you don’t wash your hair weekly you somehow are unhygienic and you smell! I know the smell of dirty hair and sebum build up and sweat this is not what I encourage. There are ways to keep your hair and scalp clean without shampooing weekly! The propaganda of making black women feel uneasy about not washing their hair weekly is the reason I will continue to speak up against this. People that wash their hair daily or several times a week could very well find your routine “unhygienic “ as a weekly washer. Lifestyle, routine, sebum level etc all affects how often you wash. This whole 7-10 wash is really about hydration. I can’t imagine detangling my waist length hair weekly! Absolutely unachievable for me. The difference between you and me is that am not looking down on you or making you feel “abnormal” just because I have different views! I support women doing what is working and finding ways to trouble shoot the issues that come with it.
Agree 100% this is 2023. I didn’t realize people were still doing this and claiming it’s hygienic.You put it nicely, but reading these comments and reading the creators clap back, prices less. A whole bunch of nasty people. It’s like wearing one shirt for a month and not washing it. But of course it’s her hair and if she desires to walk around with not washing her hair that’s her business. The youtuber What the kinks grew waist length hair washing it weekly. These kind of videos gave black girls curls validity in the space. Disclaimer:This being unsanitary is just my personal view , as I am sure you are aware this is not the norm for everyone.
@@CoilyDiaries Looking at statistics black women are the number one sufferers from alopecia, it’s often bw in their Middle Ages who had a full head of “healthy hair.” The cause? Chronic Scalp inflammation from not washing the hair over the years. Microbes, sweat, sebum, pollution and productions build up on the scalp, oxidize and cause inflammation, the perfect storm for alopecia and other scalp conditions. This is not a conspiracy or to make women feel bad or less than it’s been scientifically studied look at any dermatology or trichology paper on the subject. I promise you can find a sustainable way to wash your hair more frequently. In the past we have done the best we could with the information, resources and products that were available. Now in 2023 there’s so much more information, resources and products available for our hair and healthy hair in general, even drug store products have come a long way and have more sophisticated formulations. It’s time to unlearn all the outdated information that’s just plain harmful.
There is no one sized fits all for any hair care but there is the general profesional advice to wash your hair as often as your hair type allows, not as infrequently as your hair type allows, that’s why I offered some lee way but consider that once a week is already considered infrequent washing yet a lot of bw still think that is too much. It’s mostly a mental thing in my opinion becuase it’s been ingrained over generations. I’m usually not one to tell women what to do with their hair and I believe that the best hair care routine is one that makes you confident to go out and live your life everyday no matter what you choose to do to it, but there are boundaries and when harmful hair practices are presented and accepted as healthy hair care options by the majority of a population that’s where I get frustrated. I wish you the best on your hair care journey and hope you reach your goals. My goal is not to make anyone feel less than but to dispel misinformation.
Respectfully disagree
