Is wetting your hair considered the same as washing your hair with shampoo?

Hey...


I used to wet my hair everyday but my parents say you should only wet your hair when you're going to shampoo your hair. Is that true? I've always thought that washing your hair simply with water is different than washing it with shampoo? So now I just wet my hair once in two days and only when I'm going to shampoo my hair.Is wetting your hair considered the same as washing your hair with shampoo?
Water is great for allowing the naturla oils to build back up into your hair but you need a little something occasionally - just to stop it looking lanky and greasy. I suggest wet it for 2 days and wash it on the third. Can't do it any harm..Is wetting your hair considered the same as washing your hair with shampoo?
no this is just fr girls cause their hair cannot be dried easily
definately YES!!! dont wet your hair..if ur hair stink the water doesnt deflect the bad smell...dont do that...
hi - your parents are right - it is totally pointless to wet your hair unless you are going to shampoo it.


Shampoo will remove the build up of pollutants and styling products on your hair.





I shampoo and condition my hair on a daily basis - some people don't agree with this. I don;t see it as just washing my hair - i see it as washing my scalp. I mean you wouldn't just wash your face twice a week would you?
no i know lots of ppl who wet their hair b/c it improves the texture and makes it easier to manage. its mostly ppl with naturally curly hair. but you dont have to wash it to wet it (although i hope you wash it regularly between wettings). its ok to wet it, as long as its not to cold out cuz that makes it easier to catch cold. i mean, what is a little water going to hurt?
It's not the same ..
They are not the same. While rinsing your hair might take out the dirt, it won't take out any of the grease. The oils in your hair are water insoluble, so if you want your hair to be clean, you have to use shampoo/soap.
I wet my hair all the time to make it manageable. I only shampoo/condition about every other day, and my hair (although not always cooperative) is always super soft and shiny w/o being greasy, and is always easy to comb or brush without having lots of tangles.





I don't think wetting your hair from time to time is bad for it, although I wouldn't consider that a form of washing it. However, over-washing can have negative effects just the same as under-washing. It's important to know how often is the best to shampoo/condition your hair to keep it as healthy as possible.
if you are going to wash your hair you need shampoo, water doesnt do anything, and it doesnt matter if you just wet your hair, i do it in summer to cool down.
Wash your hair properly..
You can wet your hair whenever you want as many times as you want, but if you intend to wash your hair then just add shampoo.
No it is not. Water doesn't clean your hair the way shampoo does. Your hair will still get oily when wetting with just water. Water doesn't harm your hair, I used to wet my hair with water when I needed to style it, and washed it with shampoo when it needed to be cleaned.
What?





I wet my hair daily to style it..since my hair is on the dry side I can't wash it everyday.
washing your hair with plane water is useless, it will only lead to hairfall. when washing your hair do it with a good shampoo.


also its better to wash hair only twice a week.....
you got to mix the shampoo with water, omg
