Why does natural shampoo and conditioner dry out my hair?

I recently started using natural shampoo and conditioner (organic, no parabens etc). I used to use herbal essence or whatever was available. I wash my hair daily (which I know is bad but I work out a lot and my hair gets greasy easily.) I've been using it for about a week and my hair feels very dry and almost wiry/frizzy. I usually have soft thick hair. I'm just wondering why this is? Thanks!

    You should only use shampoo 1-2 times a week. If not your hair will become dry.

    I recommend washing your hair with a paste of water and baking soda, and then applying coconut oil after towel drying. It's the most organic way to deal with your hair, and SUPER healthy for it.
