[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So is this only a white people problem?  Seriously. I'm black and can go weeks without washing my hair and it does not smell. My Asian best friend can go at least a week without washing her hair and even at that duration, I've never smelled it.

Just seriously interested in what ethnic groups have this as an issue.

I think this is really what it gets down to. I am a very white person with very fine hair and a few years ago I TRIED to stop washing it every day. And I gave it the REAL college try like really got devoted. I waited months for my scalp to 'adjust' like everyone said. And no I just looked gross for months.

That said I dyed my hair blonde a couple years ago (I'm brunette) and the processing of my hair like, physically changed it in a way where I get it! I could not wash it every day without it looking crazy fried, it took me awhile to adjust but with that hair I really needed to be on a 2-3 day schedule or it would just look like totally fried out. The texture had changed. It was also easier to style and held curls for the first and only time in my life. Had more volume, it was just like, the hair everyone else seems to have!

Then I went back to brown because the upkeep was just a pain and I can literally like, see the line in my hair where what was blonde meets the hair that wasn't overly processed. All of a sudden I cannot in fact wait two days to wash it because it looks like, oily and clumpy. Especially my bangs I have to wash those. Sometimes if I don't have time for a shower i will wash just the bangs in the sink to look halfway decent.

Anyway long way of saying people with thicker hair yes I think its a literal different hair composition/texture and it works out for you but some of us have to wash every day and that is also ok. And don't feel bad if you are one of those people. [/quote]
