Thin hair? You would have to wash your hair that often.

A beautiful forest on your head, that's what we all dream of. It's that simple. But you often have to make do with the hair you have been given.

Thin hair? Then you might be doing everything you can to boost it a bit with volumizers and dry shampoo, or even with talcum powder or those kinds of terribly expensive products. But according to experts, it mainly has to do with how often you wash your hair.

Thin or thick
Every hair type is different and every hairstyle has different care needs. Do you have thick hair? Then it probably gets greasy a bit slower: you see it shine less quickly. Thin hair? Then you notice more quickly that it becomes greasy and you probably prefer to wash it every day. Most people who complain about greasy hair wash their hair too often and do not use conditioner. And that's what hairdressers recommend: thin hair or hair that is thinning is best washed every day or every other day with a shampoo that stimulates hair growth. Then also use a little bit of conditioner that nourishes the hair follicle and stimulates hair growth. But not too much: otherwise it becomes greasy too quickly. You only apply conditioner to your ends. 

Here's how it is
Thick hair only needs to be washed every three days. And if you color your hair, it's better to wash it three times a week. The more often you do it, the faster you wash out your color. You don't want that. You'll be back at the hairdresser for 150 bucks.

Let's summarize, once and for all:

• Thin hair: every day with growth shampoo
• Thick hair: every three days with shampoo and conditioner
• Dry hair: every two days with a mask
• Fine hair: every other day with a volumizing shampoo, little conditioner, and then dry shampoo
• Stiff hair: wash twice a week with a rich nourishing shampoo
• Colored hair: no more than three times per week

So, make the best of it, with those strands on your head. Chest out and go.
