Your hair is getting too dried out and stripped of it's natural oils. |

B complex vitamins help with hair a lot! I'm sorry, I wish I had more advice. :c my hair was falling out in huge clumps a while ago due to my thyroid being out of whack, and it wasn't until then that I realized how attached to my hair I really was, I know a lot of women are. I really hope you find something that helps!! Peace and Love. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38670557 Still shower and get your hair wet, but no need to wash everyday. Your hair is getting too dried out and stripped of it's natural oils. This too! Definitely stop washing it every day. Ive read about washing with apple cider vinegar instead, it's less stripping I think? You should look into it! But definitely stop washing every day, it will destroy your hair. I have to because my hair is so so thin so it gets oily quickly, but even then on days I'm not leaving the house I just get it wet and don't use shampoo. |

I'm black and don't wear weave. Get a shower cap and wear it. Only get your hair wet when you intend to wash it. You might also try some leave-in conditioner. There are also split end repair things you can get. I know my roommate who was black always conditioned her hair very carefully. She washed it regularly, but IDK about every day. I don't wash my hair every day. Unless it gets dirty, every other day or so should be fine. But, I'm a white girl so my hair is different. I have used hair repair stuff in the past and it does help a lot. Also, you can get the ends trimmed. Then start being more gentle with your hair. |

Unless a person has oily hair, this is not desirable. |

Try taking some Apple cider vinegar orally and also wash or rinse your hair with it..maybe rinse and put some more on and leave it on. Just things you could try. Good luck |

I am white and have to do the same as I have very, curly hair. It works beautifully. Also get a water purifier reverse osmosis to drink and stop drinking bottled water. In three to six months you will break even but all of the water you use will be free from anything harmful even radiation. Plastic contaminates. This will change a lot of things and you will reduce so much risk on your health. Change the filters as directed or you are fooling yourself. |
