A member asked:
Should a person with extremely oily scalp shampoo everyday?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Shampooing every day is perfectly appropriate, contrary to what you may have read online, especially if your scalp is oily. I have such a scalp, i've been shampooing every day for most of my life, and as you can see from my photo, my hair is just fine. So no worries.
