Correct hair wash frequency and the right product are essential for scalp and hair care. Women wearing hijab are becoming more common. However, no consensus has been published regarding the correct frequency of hair washing, especially for women wearing hijab. Research is needed to compare the influence of different hair wash frequencies on scalp health. The aim of this study is to assess the correlation between hair wash frequency with scalp transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and hydration in women wearing hijab.
Sixty healthy women in reproductive age were allocated into 30 subjects in Group A (frequent hair wash, every 1-2 days) and 30 subjects in Group B (infrequent hair wash, every 3-5 days). Measurements of scalp skin TEWL and hydration were performed on baseline, day-14, and day-28.
The day-28 median value of scalp skin TEWL was 20.87 g/m/h in Group A and 17.67 g/m/h in Group B ( < 0.01). The day-28 median value of scalp skin hydration was 11.48 AU in Group A and 12.77 AU in Group B ( > 0.05).
Frequent hair wash may significantly increase scalp TEWL score in women wearing hijab. However, there is no correlation between hair wash frequency and scalp hydration in women wearing hijab.
正确的洗发频率和合适的产品对头皮和头发护理至关重要。戴头巾的女性越来越普遍。然而，关于正确的洗发频率，尤其是对于戴头巾的女性，尚未达成共识。需要进行研究以比较不同洗发频率对头皮健康的影响。本研究的目的是评估戴头巾女性的洗发频率与头皮经表皮水分流失（TEWL）和水合作用之间的相关性。
60名育龄健康女性被分为A组30名受试者（频繁洗发，每1 - 2天一次）和B组30名受试者（不频繁洗发，每3 - 5天一次）。在基线、第14天和第28天测量头皮皮肤的TEWL和水合作用。
A组头皮皮肤TEWL的第28天中位数为20.87 g/m/h，B组为17.67 g/m/h（<0.01）。A组头皮皮肤水合作用的第28天中位数为11.48 AU，B组为12.77 AU（>0.05）。
频繁洗发可能会显著提高戴头巾女性的头皮TEWL评分。然而，戴头巾女性的洗发频率与头皮水合作用之间没有相关性。
