  A majority of the time it's every day because of the amount of goop I have to use to keep my hair from not looking like I stuck my finger in an electrical socket. Every once in a while I'll go an extra day, but it's so yucky when I do wash it.

  My hair is curly and dries out easily so I only wash it once a week, unless I straighten it. That gives me one good/down hair day a week; the rest of the time it's piled on top of my head.

  I do every other day.  Sometimes I push it a third day, but it isn't pretty.  I have fine, straight hair.

  I used to do every other day, but ever since I cut my hair short, I have to do it every day (at least on work days). Not sure why. My hair is very fine/thin and blonde so it shows everything. On the weekends, I can get away with skipping a day if I use some Lulu Organics hair powder. That stuff is awesome.

  I REALLY want to get back to washing with just baking soda and apple cider vinegar, but I need a good week or more off work to get through the really bad part. When I was doing that before, I could easily go 3-4 days, which is a MIRACLE considering my hair type

  In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!

  Every other day for me, unless I do something that makes me sweaty.

  If I wear my hair curly, I have to wash everyday otherwise it looks stringy and flat. If I straighten it, then I only wash it very 2-3 days because it's such a PIA to do.

  I wash my hair like every other day when I am working days. I wear my hair up at work, so when I am working lunches all day, I may go a few. If I am not, I do it every day.. I have straight fine hair, so if I am wearing it down, it seems to get a lil greasy, so I hate it feeling dirty...

  I alternate between every day and every other day.  If I do it every other day, I put my hair up though because it gets gross.

  I try to go 2-3 days between washes, but if I do, I have to wear my hair up the last day.  I wish I could wash it every day, but I get a keratine straightening treatment so it would wash out too quickly.

  Every other day, with the occasional 3rd day thrown in over weekends when I really don't care how it looks. It's only by the 3rd day that it usually event starts to look a little greasy at the roots.

  Every third day. Day one looks awesome, day two is still the same style but a little mussed, day three is a ponytail. Then it starts all over again. There's some mild dry shampoo use in there as well.

  Every. Freaking. Day. Not only every day but every morning, I can't wash it at night and it look nice the next day. If  I don't I look like I haven't washed it in weeks.  I also have to use two rounds of shampoo to get it clean.

  THIS. The only way I can get away with washing it at night is if I am putting it in a braid or sock buns and taking it out in the morning once it is dry.
