Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

I'm sorry to have to say, but the idea of "hair training" is a myth.

The oil glands (which are known as sebaceous glands, and produce an oil called "sebum") are controlled by genetics, hormones, and stress. Sebaceous glands don't have any sort of "sensor" to tell them when to produce more/less oil, so washing or not washing won't make a difference.

Thank you. I have extra oily hair so if I skip washing it even a single day it starts to look like I'm using pomade, and whenever I tell people this they always insist I should just wash it once a week and my head will "adjust."
