Hi
My question may sound silly, but wanted a sound advice.
After coming home from outside, is it mandatory to wash one's hair as well? At present, I do so (out of fear, mainly). However, wanted to know this. Also, is there any other easy way of 'sanitizing' one's head/hair? With winters coming, I dread having to wash my hair daily, that too at night, as I come back home late.
Please advise.
Thanks

It’s not silly. Any health concern is always important & good that you are clearing it . You must wash your hair specifically when drenched in rain or anything else fall out on hair. If you went to any dusty place, then too. Otherwise the usual routine 2nd or 3rd day washing is ideal

Is this behaviour of washing head was there from the beginning or after any incident like you shifted to a more polluted area or someother reason..I advise you to stop this act of washing head everyday bcoz your hair needs time to produce oil on its own for scalp nourishment,if u can't resist to wash it, please kindly consult a psychiatrist.. Thankyou
