Matt............ for God's sake -- do you wear a hat or a cap in the kitchen? If so, it should be collecting sweat and grease. If your hair gets greasy from the kitchen then you must not wear a hat which means you could be getting hair and dandruff in the food! ACKKKKKKKKKK!!! I used to wash my hair every day, but now that I'm older I often try to let it go a day or maybe 2.. my hair is much drier than it used to be. Just because she washes her hair once a week doesn't mean she doesn't shower every day. I think it's disgusting that you would start worrying about her hygiene and her sex partners

When I lived in England, most of the English I knew only bathed once a week too.

i have extremely dry, coarse, frizzy hair. i also only wash my hair once a week (actually every 6 days). if i wash it any more than that, my scalp gets itchy and really dry. sometimes, though, if i've been sweating a lot or getting dirtier than usual, i will rinse it and only use conditioner between washing. that keeps it from being gross!
if your scalp doesn't produce a lot of oil, there's no reason to wash it.

why does anyone care how often this cow washes her greasy looking hair?

My hair is very curly. It is naturally quite dry and brittle. If I washed it more than once a week, it would fall out for sure. BTW, you can take a bath with out washing your hair...

She is NOT a chef. She's a tv show hostess/bimbo. Learn the difference.

That is just disgusting. I can always tell when girls don't wash their hair. They have that nasty "dirty hair" smell. Blah! Gross! I shower at LEAST once a day and wash my hair every single time I shower.

You have NO IDEA what you are talking about. I shower with my hair in a shower cap every morning, I bathe every night.. I wash my hair ONCE a week as well. My hair is very long and thick and I will tell you I get compliments on my hair EVERYDAY. People who wash their hair everyday either do because they have OILY/GREASY hair which I have dry hair. I am a CLEAN FREAK, when I shower afterwards I have a squeegee to wipe down the shower.............yes every time........prevents mold!! Jessica Simson who is also very pretty washes her once every three weeks !!! FOR THE SAME REASON!! Now three weeks I could not do..........but I there is a reason why we don not wash our hair every day mine would be so dry it would be terrible. My Dad is 70 years old and still has a full head of hair..........washes it once a week................I am 40 but I look 30 AND get told that quite often..............

That's a very European thing to do. When my daughter was born I did the American thing and bathed my baby everyday. She had severe excema. Her pediatrician said to do the European thing and bathe her once a week. Of course I cleaned her well when she needed it but the excema cleared up and didn't return until now that she is older and showers everyday she has excema again. We are just so scared of germs and worry so much about how we look that we might be hurting ourselves in the process. I personally think Nigella is very sexy, and the fact that she doesn't wash her hair that often makes it thick and healthy.

You're right. I work in a kitchen & would NEVER wash my hair only once a week. Her hair must smell worse than LOW TIDE.

I, also, have dry hair, but I would never resort to washing only once a week. Oily or not, it still will stink after acouple days. You all can try and justify your poor hygiene any way you want, it's still poor hygiene. By the way Angie, I've been to Europe several times, and even though there are plenty who do the "European thing" as you call it, most still bathe more than once a week. The ones who do do teh "European thing" still stink. I guess if you and Robin don't care if you stink, that's up to you, but please stay indoors from about that 3rd day on, if you please.

I'm not racist at all, but this is how it is. Many black woman in my office spend Friday night and most of Saturday getting these elaborate hair-do's. I live in South Florida. These woman keep the "Do" for 2 weeks! It's August, this is Florida, it's hot and humid. You don't want to get too close behind one in the elevator. They actually stink!

I wash my hair once a week as well. I shower EVERY day, but I use a shower cap. I am not in the food industry, I work in an office. My hair dresser says my hair is in great condition and that people that wash their hair all the time are stripping it of it's natural oils, which can cause breakage and dryness. My hair is not oily, and it is very healthy. If you don't use a lot of product in your hair (I only occasionally use hair serum after straightening my hair), then you don't need to wash it every day.

Oh come on. Unless you keep your body temperature below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, or have a magic field of bacterial inhibition around you, you gotta wash every day in order to keep them down to a hygienic level. Bacterial populations grow exponentially - your head doesn't get some kind of exemption to math and physics because you don't wanta wash your hair.

To ROBIN,

I agree that Matt doesn't understand the idea of "washing" your hair.

Matt, going in the shower and fully cleaning your hair with hot water while you soap the rest of your body is not "washing" your hair, since you use no soap. Soap takes out natural oils that your hair needs to stay healthy.

You should wash your hair (with shampoo) only when needed; only when the oil builds up. WIth most people, that is about once a week or less. If you have dry hair, it can be even more infrequently.

The funny thing is people using conditioner and hair oils to put oil and moisture BACK into their hair, which they have just washed out unnecessarily with shampoo.

And Robin, you sound hot!

Time

I shampoo my hair once or twice a week. It's very short, and it takes a few days for the oils to build up. Not everyone is the same you know. =P
