I'm told not to shampoo and condition everyday. What if I'm doing hard workouts of lifting and cardio 6x a week?
Post Body

I sweat A LOT for what I do physically . On cardio days in particular, I lose about 1.5 lbs of water. For lifting well, it's a gym - they're full of everyone else's germs. My training is cumulatively 3 hours a day and sometimes I'll shower 2x a day if I train in the morning and after work.

Would my routine be the exception and if so, what can I do to mitigate hair damage while still maintaining my training for my sport?

Comments

I had a similar quandary. I shifted to Mane n Tail shampoo for horses and only use a little bit each shower. Has had a huge turnaround for my hair.

For body I do a HARD scrub every 3 showers or so. Main wash on the pits, crotch, etc. Mostly to keep my skin from drying out. But I've combatted this with a little spritz bottle of baby oil for right after shower when my pores are open. Cheapest best life hack ever.
