I started doing this after reading the daily washing thread. I'll keep this up for awhile and see what happens. Happy Hair Growing (and washing).
I "wash" my hair three times a week (Sun, Tues, Thurs). However, since I work out every day. I make sure to rinse my hair every day (flush away that salty sweat). I only use shampoo on Sundays and do condition-only washes Tues & Thurs. Thi smay change during the summer as it gets hotter. I sweat a lot and may need to shampoo more often.
I have been doing more washing now. doing the every 2 day thing so i'll be at it again friday. DEF. doing the pnytail method too but also im gonna try Adrienne's style w/the baggy. just that i hope i have enough hair for the bag to stay on. LOL. Maybe i'll put it on top of my head. hehe. but so far my hair is fine and looks fine too. PLUS, big plus, there is MUCH less breakage. Its as if the water helps to stop breakage almost moreso than ANY other hair product i have put in my hair. wow(either that or the multi vitamins and biotin)

Yep, the key is to RINSE every day. Actually, if you rinse every day you'll find that you don't need cleansing shampoos and conditioners at all. Your hair will stay clean, soft, and elastic!

I agree with the rinsing, I still do a shampoo when I have sweated alot after aerobics otherwise I just rinse. I have no problems doing this. I also do conditioning rinses, but never 2 nights in a row. I alternate with just distilled water...

And you know what. I was thinkin bout how my mom use to do my hair when i was a child. She use to wet up the brush and brush my hair in2 ponytails. i HATED IT. Cause when it got cold i would be freezing. Plus the dripping. But i will say i do remember my hair be much longer than this, THAT I know for sure. Infact it was shoulder to maybe a lil past it as i look at pics of my hair back then wondering what in the world did i do to my hair to lose that. lol Each time she would do my hair she would always do that. I use to think that was just crazy but it was something she did cause i was afraid of the heat and it was bout the only way to get my hair to stay back on my head to grab it in2 a ponytail. I am now going to start tryin that kinda thing myself, cept im wearing the pony's at home or w/some hair pieces on it and KEEP the hair in. lol

Keke,
You are bringing back memories. I spent every morning in the bathroom standing at the sink while my mother held the brush under the water then brushed my hair into a braid.
Anywho,I have washed my hair daily since I joined the swim team in sixth grade.I left the team when I graduated high school, but never broke the daily washing habit. I can’t say I have noticed any detrimental effects.
My only recommendation is to use a good quality conditioning shampoo and conditioner.
About once a week I also use a clarifying or dandruff shampoo.
Good luck!

I do my boys hair every day with a spray bottle and I swear everytime I cut it short, they're sporting a thick mop within two weeks it seems! I've been using a spray bottle nightly and I'm hoping for the same results! Problem is my ponytail/bun is always damp. every day and I'm beginning to wonder if I should let it dry out between washings which I do twice a week. Do ya'll worry about this or should I not worry?

My hair usually... finally dries by the end of the afternoon. I do my hair at night so it has a chance to dry a little over night. When I do it doing the day and braid it back or do a bun it never dries thouroughly, but it doesn't seem to be causing a problem. My hair loves the moisture.

I think I am going to have to join you; I am growing out a perm and have reached a stage where I cannot get the dandruff out of my hair.. I don't know what is going on with me.

I'm with KitKat, I'm too too lazy to even think about this! Good luck with those of you that are doing this also. A couple of you did bring back the brush and water memories too! That was the only way my mom could keep my curls under control, cause she knew I wasn't going to let her wash my hair everyday!

Check this out ya'll!
From JFLazartigue.com:
What's oil got to do with it? A lot believe it or not. An excess of sebum can eventually suffocate your roots making your hair become anemic, inhibiting the potential to last its full cycle.
So it would seem a clean scalp means a growing scalp!

I would like to do the washing every day thing but I just
wouldn't know what to do with my hair afterwards. What are
some nice, easy styles besides briads that yall do? And
what are bantu knots?

Well I am in braids right now, but before I had them and was doing daily washing I did my hair a few ways. My hair is not that long, maybe 3-4 inches. I either do a shake and go. With this I get out of the shower and run a leave in through, and a little worlds of curls gel through. I sometimes brush the front to one side and use a cute barette or headband.
If your hair is a little longer you can use a brastrap headband and pull your hair up into a puff. Put a scarf around the edges, and it will be smooth by the time you go to work.
Sometimes I will also do some flat twists at the front of my hair, and leave the back of my hair free and put a band around it. If I can find some pics I will post.
