I remember this from reading teen novels and advice stuff in the 1960s (graduated h.s. in 1972 by which time of course it was all long straight parted in the middle hair). If you ask google you will find many sites where the once a week shampoo was standard at the time.
I don't shampoo daily because I wash it in the shower and I shower every other day because of extremely dry skin (all my life) which is prone to eczema and itching (dr. said no daily showers). Aging has made my hair drier as well, although I can feel slight oiliness by the end of the second day.
You can also let your hair get wet without sudsing it up.
Your doctor is giving you out dated information on daily bathing: https://nationaleczema.org/treatments/bathing/
It's not outdated!

Showering every other day is fine, particularly for people with dry skin.
You’re posting articles from 2021 and 2024. The National Eczema org’s article was medically reviewed/posted in 2025.
Again, you have outdated information.
NP, but kindly STFU and stay in your line.
No. False information needs to be corrected.
My dermatologist says I can shower every other day. I shower every other day. My skin looks and feels great. It's not "false information."
It is. It’s ok to admit you have outdated information. But insisting it’s still correct for those with eczema is the definition of false information.

Because you stink.
If someone stinks you're smelling BO. Not their hair. Hope this helps.
PP walks around thinking everyone stinks. I think she’s probably smelling her own BO all day…
People in this thread are the weirdos who insist if you're not scrubbing your anus raw with steel wool you smell like poop. When in reality just being hit with some soap or body wash and warm water is more than enough for the average person.
They likely still wash their chicken before cooking it, too.

That's for people with eczema, not the general public. Dry skin and eczema are different.

No. Oily greasy hair smells way different from BO. Just because you are used to your stink doesn’t mean the rest of is want to get used to it.
Yes, it smells different because BO actually smells and hair oils do not smell. You cannot smell it. You're being dramatic and weird.
🤢 Ugh you are gross. Anyone who thinks greasy hair doesn’t smell is absolutely rank. Fix your hygiene so the rest of us can stop suffering.
Multiple people are saying in this thread that they don't think hair smells if it's being washed every other day or every two days but you're really doubling down, huh?
