That depends on the type of hair you have. Stick straight hair that tends to get oily, can be washed every other day. Even then, it is not necessary to condition it daily.
When you do condition it, rinse it out with cooler water than what you started with. It doesn't have to be cold, but you need to close up the pores in your hair, thus locking in the conditioner.
Did not know that, thanks! I'll add that to my repertoire. I'm not sure how to characterize my hair other than straight, going white and going missing. I don't think it is particularly oily but I'm not sure how I'd know if it was. My pillow isn't oily?
