1. Washing your hair daily is not healthy. Yes, you feel your hair getting dirty from a whole day's work, but others won't notice that you didn't wash your hair anyway (except when it gets overly greasy).

Ask your hairstylist for advice if you are not sure about the protective product you are going to use.
