Do I shower enough? Please answer?

I am nearly 13 & I shower 5-6 times a week, so basically everyday

Is this enough, because I've heard showering everyday is bad for you

And also I was my hair with herbal essences shampoo + conditioner every time I shower, is this too much?

Thanks in advance xx

    I'm 13 and I shower/wash my hair everyday but many people wash there hair just a couple times a week (like 2-3). For me I just don't like my hair to get oily during the day so I just wash my hair everyday so it won't bother me. But you can use dry shampoo etc if you think showering/washing your hair everyday is bad for you.

    But I think 5-6 times a week is enough :) x

    It is good to shower everyday, but only wash your hair 2-3 times a week.

    Washing your hair too often loses natural oils.

    Shower every day it's not unhealthy for you as long as you use skin-friendly showergel/soap.

    Washing your hair everyday takes the natural nutrients from your hair and leaves it dry, so don't wash it everyday.

    I think you're supposed to shower every other day (unless you have oily skin/hair or sweat a lot) because showing can strip your body and what not of its natural oils, which is bad. Only wash yourself if you feel dirty in the slightest or if you're stinky lol btw organic products are much better for you, maybe look into the brand 100% pure, I tried a few other products and they work nicely.

    Showering everyday is not bad for you at all, as you get older you should be showering at least twice a day. Washing your hair every day is not good for your hair, I suggest finding a routine for washing your hair that works for you.

    You should shower everyday just incase you smell!! But, I have heard it is best to only wash your hair every other time you shower because shampoo and what not stips away certain oils that are good for your scalp.

    I shower Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, and sometimes Fri. But usually my schedule goes like this:

    S: yes

    M: yes

    T: yes

    W: yes

    Th: yes

    F: sometimes

    S: no (but if I didn't on fri then yes)

    I wash my hair every other shower, sometimes more, and I like it like that. I shower on Fridays because I have bball games and then Saturday I have vball, so that's why.

    As long as you don't stink, and are clean, you can shower as often, or as little as you want.
