Is Hair Wash Harmful During The First Three Days Of Menstruation?

I'm having my periods. Today is the second day. I am told by my mum and aunties, not to take a headbathe during first 3 days of periods. But i always want to shower my head. Usually i'll take headshowers once for two days. Is it good to take a shower to my head now? Will it cause any health problems. And i'm told 'if u take a head shower during those first 3 days ur flow willbe decreased and that blood will turn into tumors and u may have cancer'. I'm a bio student but i dont know how far true is this? Can anyone help me?
