I have read that applying oil daily is harmful and even washing hair daily is harmful. So please can you give a week plan to maintain hair properly.

Daily oiling is not required as our scalp produces oil (sebum) which is sufficient to nourish scalp and hairs. So daily oiling is not required. Daily washing hair with plain water is okay but daily hair wash with shampoo dries the scalp hairs leads to loss of hair proteins making hair weak and frigle.
