.......wash your hair when you are sick?? :confused:

Right now I am getting over the flu (day 4) and my hair really needs a Moo Poo. I am a HAM (hot a$$ mess) right now. I don't plan on going out until Monday so I don't think that it would hurt me.

Just want other opinions.
 
i do...when my hair needs washing, i wash it regardless...i have some odd virus right now too and i've been rinsing my twists every night
 
no, I wouldn't recommend it. When was the last time you washed?
I would wait until the flu passes before washing again...you need time to recuperate dear.. (I sound like a mommy right now ;) )
 
I try not too...when I am sick beyond belief, I will break down and use a damp rag to make an attempt at cleaning the hair (I know it sounds crazy). I did it once and was so miserable.
 
If I'm not too weak to take a shower then I wash my hair. I find it very soothing.
I hate to feel "dirty" or have my hair feel dirty when I'm sick. I know it sounds crazy but I just imagine the germs clinging to me and my hair. I feel much better after I've washed up, washed and conditioned my hair and put lotion on my body.
 
I last washed my hair last Monday. I was supposed to wash on Wednesday but did not b/c the flu was in full swing. I am feeling a lot better but I still have a cough (not as bad as before).

Hopefully everything will be gone by Friday.
 
I think it would better if you waited until you feel 100% better. You dont wanna risk getting sicker if you wash your hair, which can happen. Been there done that. ;)

Hi, i washed my hair when i was ill, i felt better. i stayed in aswell for the week afterwards so it was cool.
 
If you don't plan on going anywhere for a few days, wash. If you have to go out, don't. If I can stand up and do the job then I'll do it. If not it will just wait until I'm able.

I'm the same... when I'm sick I bathe myself and my surroundings even more. I want a clean body/hair, fresh clean pjs and clean sheets!
