hey guys! loving the input right here. I have long hair just like you Braz. I've got a tricky question though.
I'm assuming this is a course of a week with not much physical activity? What if you train sports / yoga / calisthenics around 4-5 times a week, also outdoors where its absolutely humid (50%-60% humidity in our city!).
How would you go about it? Washing hair very often is not recommended. Do we just water wash it in this case? to get that sweat/humidity off it? Could never find a good answer to this (: -- some people would say "yuck" (especially my sister), but I still wont shampoo/wash more than 2 times a week. I have curly hair anyway so the oils don't travel as fast as of a straight hair.
p.s. i use some hydrating product some days to keep that neat and tidy look after an only water wash, otherwise its so messy & frizzy after intense training in the humid weather.
Awaiting your valuable feedback!

Run you fOoLs
I love that you show real stuff...not just the perfect look...that's respectable. Much appreciated
What a well put together man
thank you for the video. Been having a tough time figuring out a routine/pattern for hair care now that it's long. About the same length as Mr. B on the video here.
Great video and super helpful. Thanks for doing this Greg!
Great vid Greg, always learning something new and useful

Your hair is growing really long now Greg. It looks good mate, it suites you, 👌
Your interior matches you! I dont know but that blue green and then the wooden brown and a long haired man makes it look like a Quentin Tarantino movie
Love the beard and hair
I second that
them EYE BRAWL'S.....🤤
Twice a week for me. Thanks for the sea salt tip. Usually so dry the first days after a wash flyaways like crazy. Do you use dry shampoo at all. I can’t figure when to use it. Makes my oily hair clump together.
on my 27th birthday another greg video i can stare at and be jealous I don't have his hair, Great! speaking from a baldie
So the days you don't wash your hair do you keep it dry every time you have a shower?
Can you rinse with just water no shampoo.
Love this video!
I’m from Italian decent so my hair was also really oily. I stopped washing with shampoo and after about a month it’s like it just reset. Now I just run water through it and maybe once every one or two months wash with products
So how do you do this? Do you shower in between those days and tie your hair when when you shower?
I have to rinse my hair with water before styling it (every morning). I have porous wavey/curly hair and I shampoo&condition once or twice a week - depending on activity. My hair is naturally very dry due to the porosity so I use the LOC method (Leave in conditioner + Oil + Cream) to be able to style it and ensure it looks somewhat healthy.
I recently went 5 days without washing and it wasn't too bad! You can see what I'm talking about in my most recent video upload 😎 I think there's no rule to this - you must experiment!
I finished listening his video well i think exactly the same .. i use dry argan oil just after washing when hairs are dump abd nothing else ,,, just the evening before washing some coconut oil and wash in the morning
I am used to washing my hair every time I step in the shower. If I showered 2 or 3 times a day, I washed my hair that many times. Being in the Army and having short hair, was a regular thing. Plus, growing up, my parents told me to wash my hair every day. So it was kind of ingrained in me. Now that I have retired from the Army and let my hair grow, it is still a struggle not to wash it every day. With it down to my shoulders, I have found washing every other or every third day has helped alleviate tangles. The problem with me is I am still being active outside, and have a daily gym routine; I just feel like I need to wash it. It feels dirty, but I am trying to stick to my guns here.
Did you wet it in the shower along this journey or did you leave it completely dry?
I have medium long hair n I wash my hair 3 times a week by the 3rd day my hair starts getting oily I dont let go past the 3rd day of week for a hair washing cause I personally cant stand oily hair some days when its hair wash day n Im just not in the mood I will do a quick 1min rinse of my hair
I have long hair similar length to Greg. I workout most days and am a soccer player which usually means every day or every other day for me.
Your day 5 is my day 1.if I go 5 days and then wash on 6 my hair feels amazing, I wish I looked better with my hair pulled back.
Any tips for people working construction washing daily ? My hair gets crusty daily
Hey Greg! Thanks for the video. Im growing my hair out for the first time and have seen the "don't wash your hair" advice a lot. How do you manage working out with this plan? I do cardio every morning and my hair tends to get pretty drenched in sweat, definitely enough so to require a shower. Is there anything at all that can be done? or is this just a sacrifice
@@nabranestwistypuzzler7019 you are the best
@@bluesh0es fuck bro. I don't remember. But i have since grown my hair our for two years and still work out. I basically just rinse my hair out on days that i do workout, but what I've found to be most effective is shampooing and conditioning at least like 2 times a week. I have super thick hair which may play a role, but I've found my hair to be a whole lot healthier when I actually condition. That's been the real key. I used to just shampoo sometimes and that's not a good idea
Question, did you avoid working out this week so that you didn’t have to wash your hair? Or
Love your look😍
Hello Greg glad to hear that you have it down a lot of times my brother has long hair to the middle of his back and he always has it pulled back in a ponytail I don't get it why have long hair
I wash them once per week since i was 30 and i have great hairs .. a dermatologist told me once that washing hairs. Just with mid warmWater is enough! I tried during 6 weeks .. well after3 weeks my hairs becom wonderful fluffy and strong .. washing hair and all products are commercial business ! More often u wash them more they produce grease .. my hairs are 80% like his hairs but mine are still chestnut color and i am 77
Of course if i do sport perspire go to the beach do cookig or work in a polluting environement Dust road or bbq whatever i rinse them just with water more often !
@AK hi actually once x week Are very long and mostlyvin a bunnafter one week still can smell a little shampoo
It all depends in the environment u live at Work i had many cars passing in front of my shop and products Vaps of my work made them heavy after 3-4 days but were short by that time my hairs are not greasy nor dry just natural some people have them greasy
When you say “wash” is that shampoo? Or is it just wetting your hair in general?
I’ve been using the sea salt spray. I like it, but it started drying out my hair and my hair started looking damaged. So, for the last two weeks I tried Argan oil after a wash, and then sea salt later. It’s been working out real well so far.
Greg is such a boss! 😎
how do you tream your sideburn when you have long hair, if you dont grow a beard?
I have to wash my hair and beard daily, it gets really oily within a day.
i know the feeling its a pain
@@death4k57 it is what it is 😩
@@BeeLeeBeats wow I didn’t know that. I wanna try it, but the greasy feeling is awful, so idk if I could last a few months before it changes lol
@@HisMajesty99 you could brush your hair out and just rinse it with water
@@nothingevenmatters771 nah I’ve tried that, using just water doesn’t help get rid of the oiliness for me, just makes my hair wet, and when it dries, still has that greasy feel. I can sometimes go a day without washing my hair, but after that I need to use shampoo or I feel awful lol. Thanks for the suggestion tho
This is crazy to me. My hair is a little longer than yours and after just one and a half days, it looks filthy with oil and grease practically dripping off the ends. I'm a work from home office guy, low physical activity in WA state. I need to wash mine every day just to not look disgusting.
Stop using shampoo and after a few weeks your scalp gets used to it and stops getting greasy.
I wash my hair every day. I have shoulder length wavy hair that is thick but fine. The oils flatten it out and I don’t like the flat look. I use shampoo and conditioner without harmful chemicals. On the occasional day that I don’t wash it usually ends up in a bun. I live in the south of the US. I workout daily after a very active work day as a teacher.
Charles Manson!? No, no, no,.......... I'd say more Bob Seager bro! 😎👍
You have great hair and beard sir
My hair is only medium length and don’t shampoo it for at least 7 days or more and it doesn’t actually become greasy on its own and if I make it greasy with moisturizing products, it will dry off within a matter of days. The only thing is if it gets itchy, but both conditioner and dry shampoo fix that, so I really only have to shampoo to cleanse any product buildup if I’ve been using any styling products, or if it actually gets dirty from touching the floor outside or whatever, but it still wouldn’t be often, and I can still basically reset it with just a co-wash, but I just eventually do end up cleansing out my hair with sulfate-free shampoo and then I use moisturizing products after to make it not actually dry and especially at the bottom because that’s the driest part.
Beautiful!
It depends on what product i’m using. I have a more modern style pompadour. If i’m using water based products, I wash it just about every day. If i’m using oil based products maybe every two and degrease after 5
Ok. My truth. Full disclaimer, I have a shaved head, full beard of varying length from time to time.
Three years ago I gave up on soap and shampoo. I discovered that under normal circumstances one does not need them.
All that washing strips away natural oils that are good for the health of hair and skin. I do not smell bad (I gave up deodorant too).
Now, from time to time I will use soap and shampoo. Soap and shampoo and conditioner are pleasurable, no doubt. Also deodorant , depending on the heat and level of activity.
If if had hair, long hair, I’d rinse it through, thoroughly, as I do with my beard. My beard looks and behaves very well, even if I use product, which substantially rinses out in the shower. It is more manageable and there’s less breakage.
So, what do I know, everyone is different. Just felt like adding my 2 cents worth.
Love your videos, man.
I have started growing my hair out again but if it is short or long I have to wash daily it gets oily quick.
I live in the Philippines. It's a tropical mess of heat and rain. I wash my hair 4 times a week.
I'm still short, around cheek length, and I find I need to wash every other day, shampoo scalp and condition the ends. My scalp gets pretty oily pretty quickly. Sometimes I can feel it even 30 hours after washing it.
How do you have a middle part on day 3 that lays flat but on day 4 you have so much lift at the roots? How do you get the lift?
I second your questions
My hair gets oily way too fast. I have to wash it once a day regardless of what I do. If I don't wash it my body refuses to stop oil production. My hair will start to look oily and get a bit curlier.
Same
My hair is just about as long, and I need to get it cut to even things out. But as for washing my hair, I typically only wash it every 3 to 4 days, sometimes longer.
Are you talking about washing with water or washing with shampoo ? I am so much confused . Please anybody help!
All that’s missing is a daisy chain and some flares 🌻
Who has drawn the snowy picture behind you?
What’s your profession Greg?
ive gotta wash my hear once a day, sometimes twice depending on the activities during that day.
Why is zeus wearing a tie?
I'm 40 with Germanic ethnicity. My hair is about the same length and thickness as in the video, and gets as oily as yours also. I work in a steel foundry in NW Pennsylvania. In the summer I tie my hair in a low man bun with a ball cap on backwards and in colder weather I wear a beanie as most of my work environment is not climate controlled. I live alone and really only meet up with friends and family over the weekends, so I just wash and condition after my last workday. I shower everyday, but I wear a shower cap. I tie my hair up in a very high man bun while I sleep and change my pillowcase every 3-4 days. Sleeping caps don't stay on my head. November is 2 years from my last short short haircut. Awkward stage was worth the hassle.
Hi Greg !! I wash it twice a week. My lenght now is longer than yours.
But to be honest, I should wash it 3 times a week. My hair comes very greasy so fast. Now is day 2 and it is ok. Tomorrow it going to start greasy and oily. I don't use any product at all !! Only shampoo and conditioner.But I use it up in a bun every day. Not usually I wear it down. One of the reasons is because now is too long, and I think this lenght is not suitable for me. See you !!
And the suprising part of day 6 made me laughing jaja!!! It was so funny !!
When you say you don’t wash your hair, do you still wet it in the shower and blow dry it?
Nope
im a ground worker, living in the UK, everytime I leave work, the outdoors makes it look so good, the natural wind curls, it makes it thicker etc.. and when I wash it.. it looks flat and weak and feathery, meh.. I like after work hair lol
Going long days without washing your hair can be damaging, cause it will cause build up on the scalp meaning that your hair will stop breathing and then dying.
How old is he?
I have kinda short hair and i wash it once 72h mainly bcs it gets greasy and dandruff starts building up. I also have to mention the fact that im 16
Lookin like Otis in, 3 from Hell, on day 3 lol
Day 3 reminds me of Saruman
Day 3 he really looks like older Jared Leto

I've been growing my hair out for about 2 years now, and I typically wash it once to twice a week. If I do it anymore my waves start to hide themselves and nobody wants that
i'll trade you waves for the straight
Damn. You look so good 😍
I don't understand it, I have rocked long hair before and I washed it every day and NOTHING HAPPENED , what about your scalp ? doesn't itch ? I could understand every 2 days , but a week ?
I'm currently letting my hair go ,in part inspired by you Sir.
Gandalf?
I went 2 weeks without washing my hair. Mine stays good for longer 'cause I have drier hair but by the end, it was so itchy and limp.
The most I'd go was 5-7 days. Now that I have my hair shorter, I end up washing it more frequently ha.
Otis from The Devil's Rejects!
hugh glass!
My hair is so greasy within 2 days that it looks oily asf. Like it clumps together
Gandalf would approve
"Stay tuned."
I remember watching these cats a couple years ago when my beard was subpar now I have a decent beard 😂
Now I’m growing my hair out too and here I am
Nice, how's the hair journey going?
-Weaver
Beardbrand Alliance abt 2 months in from a skin fade on the sides little over an inch and half growth so it’s going!
I like Zeus look :-)
Siempre tomo minimo una ducha al dia pero me lavo el pelo cada 2 dias. Ahora que soy vegan voy a ver cuantos dias aguanta mi pelo sin shampoo. Debo decir que solia tener el cabello muy grasoso.
i go from day 1 to 5 in a matter of hours haha
I have a fro. If I don't wash my hair with shampoo and conditioner not just rinse, then by Day 3, itchy scalp would be my punishment. It's no joke.
Zeke Yaegar.. Is that you?
Play as zeus in movies
Holy fuck, Zues!!
My face and scalp, literally, begin to show oil shine within a couple hours of getting out of the shower. I tried (for as long as 2 months) to only wash my hair a couple times a week when it was super long and it NEVER got better. (Despite the rumors of oil production waning with time when you stop washing daily, or every other day.)
So, yeah... For me, I must wash my hair daily. Even now that I've shaved my head, I still have to wash my scalp daily if I don't want 1/16" thick of oil laying on it by the next morning.
(Mostly Hungarian on mother's side and mostly Scots-Irish on my dad's side. No clue what that says my hair "should" be. LOL)
Me too buddy. All the time i watch videos of people saying that i shouldn't wash my hair every day, but it has so much oil in it
Very Zig-Zag man. :-)
This nigga majestic
Good god hes hot
I work in a butcher shoppe and I have to wash my hair everyday longest going 2 days, because of all the fats and bloods that get slung around
The thing I notice (maybe it's just me lol) is that my hair and nails are growing way faster if I go to the pool or beach more often (live in Florida). Also, when I was growing my hair long, I would wash it with water daily, or as you would say rinse, and use shampoo once maybe twice a week ( I was way more active than, so I had to shampoo it twice, otherwise probably wouldn't) cus I believe that there is no way that pure H2O can do anything to your hair but benefit it.
Normally i wash my hair once a week and it's fine.Longest i've gone without washing it is a month.I have short hair so not really an issue and i am at home most of the time as a carer for elderly relatives not doing much that is physically demanding or causing me to sweat much.When i had long hair the longest i went without washing it was about 2 weeks.Most of my friends wash their hair daily and their age range is mid 30's to mid 50's.They are nearly all balding or have thinning hair.I never use any products other than shampoo once a week and i still have thick hair at 49.It is starting to grey now quite quickly though.
eca
Yay ads.
Interesting video. I have to wash my hair everyday because it’s very greasy and oily 🙁
60s vibe literally looks so good lol
literally?
Has anyone ever told you that you look like Zeus from god of war?
Hey what's wrong with Willie Nelson
I can really relate to this, in my case I don't change my underwear for a week
Wow same here! Thought I was the only one 🙌🏾
🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
I wash them like every 4th or 5th day.
