could you explain me the difference between wash and clean? When to use it?
Example: I wash my hair or I clean my hair?

Question

Answer

You can use wash for example when you clean your hair/ car using water, shampoo, etc. 
Clean, instead, to give an idea, after you take a shower your hair is clean.

Answer

Washing (lavare) involves water. Cleaning (pulire) doesn’t have to. So, both make sense.

Answer

Ciao Claudia! Potrebbe dipendere della regione, ma preferisco “I wash my hair” in luogo di “I clean my hair”. Alla riposta anteriore, aggiungerei che non è necessariamente l’acqua che faccia la differenza fra “wash” e “clean”, ma secondo me, sempre si utilizza un liquido quando si lava (wash). Spero di avertelo spiegato bene...

Answer

You wash your hair to make it clean.
