Water is okay, but shampooing daily dries out your hair and scalp. I usually put my hair up and keep it dry if I'm not washing it though. You can also try conditioning on days you don't shampoo.

If your hair feels oily the day after shampooing, it might be too harsh for you. You might want to try a gentler brand.

I've used Jason brand shampoo and conditioner (I like the Henna Hi-Lights the best) for almost 10 years. Every now and then I try something else, but they're never as good! I just went a couple months without it, because I was trying to be cheap, but my hair became impossible to manage, and was getting oily the day after washing. I just got some more, and my hair is back to being awesome. Now I only have to wash every 3 days or so.

when people say don 't wash your hair i think it means not to even put water on it : ) people tend to wash their hair everyday, but what they dont know is that it causes their hair to dry out producing more oil ! making it look and feel greasy . it 's okay if you soak your hair with water but i think it 's best you leave it alone : ) let your hair get used to it and soon it will stop producing so much oil ! hope i helped ! xo

Idk. I've heard shampoo is not actually good for your hair. I think cuz it has many 'extra' chemical stuff that can damage your hair or something. So I think they say to use water and then like use shampoo once a week :P idk. I don't so that shitts that's just what I've heard lolollol.

The less you wash your hair, the less greasy it will become!! believe me. water is completely fine!! Try washing your hair every other day to begin with, and creating more space as time goes in- your hair will thank you for it!!!

No it fine, you can wet your hair everyday that's normal, just wash your hair every second day or twice a week but wetting your hair is fine :)
