  Whether the hair is long or short,it must be regularly brushed and washed.For greasy(油膩)hair,especially if the owner lives in a town,it may be necessary to wash the head every four to five days.Those with a dry hair can usually go a little longer,but this is a matter for the individual to decide.

  If a woman is not able to go to hairdressers very often,it is important that she chooses a style she can easily manage for herself,and this nearly always means that the first cut must be very standard(標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的)。
