if our hand oils contribute to the problem. |
I was told to always use a conditioner, you are conditioning the skin, not just the hair. It won't make it more oily. The first six months, their hair is really oily, after a year, it get much better, I did wash Joey's hair twice a week for a while, but always used a conditioner and he never had any dry skin problems, I'm not sure what Earthbath is, but it's important to use a shampoo made for dogs, their skin pH is different than humans, so this is very important. The wrong shampoo can dry out their skin.
