If so, what is your reason? Because after I wash my hair it feels clean the first time and I wonder why I bother washing again the second time. I'm just curious, is it necessary or just preference.
Thanks in advance.

No.
I just wash it once, then grease it up again.

Well, you maybe need to repeat your washing because sometimes when you are active, you sweat and you feel the need to wash your hair twice, or maybe you just feel dirty. There are also oils that get trapped in your hair that you feel the need to get out A.S.A.P! I wash my hair twice to make sure i got it clean, but it depends on whens the last time you took a shower, and the brand of the shampoo. I wash my hair twice to make sure it's clean :D
But when you get down to the facts, it all depends on..
- hair type
-shampoo
-last time you took a shower
-and how good you wash your hair

Actually, you don't want to wash your hair twice in one shower. You need some of the oils that are in your hair to stay there, so that it won't dry out and look frizzy/straw-like. Also, it's recommended that you wash your hair only 3 - 4 times a week!

I use just a little bit of shampoo, about half of what is recommended, to get the basic nastiness out of my hair... then I wash it again, taking my time to scrub (if you have ever had your hair washed at the salon you know what I mean). Then I rinse, then I condition.

I think you only need to wash your hair once, unless it has got really dirty.
And there is no good reason to wash your hair every day, that is just what the shampoo makers want you to do, so they can get lots and lots of your money

I wash my hair multiple times, but only because I want it to be REALLY clean. You don't have to though just as long as you wash it.

I wash twice to make sure it is squeeky clean and all the oil and dirt is out, however if you feel your hair is clean after 1 wash its okay

If it's been more than a day since I showered, then I have to shampoo twice. But normally I only wash it once. Overshampooing can cause dandruff I've heard.

It depends. sometimes my hair is really greasy and I can feel it is still slippery, so I wash it again. But I never wash it again later in the day, because I don't want to dry it out.

It all depends on how well you wash your hands the first time. If you wash them will soap (about a dime size) and do it for a time of about 22 seconds, you will hav clean hands and get rid of 99.9 percent of the bacteria. Hope i can help! =)

Just preference.
Actually, twice around is mainly for hair care treatment.
washing to much kills your hair and you will lose a lot more than just one wash through.

My hair is approximately 13 inches long. I wash mine as quickly as an afternoon. in case you have oily hair washing it on a daily basis won't harm it. You never desire to over wash your hair nevertheless. You do might desire to have some organic oils in it to maintain it finding healthful. it certainly relies upon on how dry or oily your hair is. some people can pass an entire week with out washing their hair. in case you attempt to enhance your hair, you may desire to decrease the ends each 6 to eight weeks. you may desire to discover ONE hair stylist which you would be able to believe to in simple terms snip the ends. the secret to long hair is healthful ends.

nooo, i heard that if you wash it more than like 3 times a week, your hair will become weak and fall out.
so i stick to 3 times, but my hair doesnt get that greasy, i jusy put it up when i have a shower...
the natural oils your scap porduces are to condition the hair naturally anyways.
but i always shampoo and then condition anyways. x

personally, I don't wash mine twice.
I take showers every morning. & my hair doesn't get greasy. It all depends on your hair type. Washing your hair can really hurt it though. So if it's not needed don't do it. If your hair does get greasy fast, you can wash it twice a day though.

I always did for many years, but there is actually no need, its just a habit. I learned this when i started in a hair salon..
And now i save on my nice shampoo and time... :)

Nah, I don't bother.
I think it just wastes shampoo.
I just wash my hair thoroughly he first time, so it feels clean too.

I usually only wash my hair once, so I don't over dry my scalp.

sometimes doing things twice makes us feel that we completed a job a lot better than once.

no, you need to let your hair produce the natural hair oils.
