You know, I’ve heard this, but I think it still must depend on the person. I tried not washing for a year or so and it was a nightmare. I can’t remember how long I would go without shampooing, certainly no more than three or four days, but it was just gross, even brushing and combing the shit out of it.
Now I wash nightly and it’s great and I don’t even think about it.
Question though, were you still washing your hair with water and mild massage with fingertips? Because that’s what I do. Just wondering.
Also you’re replying seems to indicate that you would stop washing but you would shampoo every 4 days or so? If I have that right, then I would suggest you’re not really doing what I’m talking about which is to continue washing your hair with water but just stop the shampoo altogether.
It took me about 6 weeks for my scalp to stop over producing. I can admit that it was pretty disgusting looking for a while until it all balanced out.
Yeah I was washing with just water nightly and brushing after, but still shampooing every few days (expecting I would eventually stop shampooing altogether). Maybe that was the problem.

One day I’ll try again using your method :)
Thanks for replying!
