Question

I do everything, well not everything. I always shampoo it and condition it right, and i no that. So i dont no why my hair is so greasy. Can someone give me a good and cheap way to make my hair look good.

Answer 1

Try a hair powder. Bumble and Bumble make hair powders that are colored to match your hair! Just sprinkle a little on the scalp and the baby fine powder sucks all the oil out of your hair. You can also go the cheap way and use baby powder, BUT BE CAREFUL. It is white and doesnt blend as well!

Answer 2

Make sure when your washing your hair, you keep the shampoo at the roots and the conditioner at the ends. Do you use hot or very warm water when shampooing? You should always use cool water on your hair because heat creates oil and grease in the hair. Do you blow dry it? Try to let your hair air dry as much as possible. That will also help keep your hair from getting damaged faster. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Don't shower everyday. Shower every other day. And when you shampoo your hair only use a quarter-sized amount, starting at the top and working your way down, massaging the scalp; don't ball your hair up at once. When you condition, only condition the tips of your hair. Blow dry your hair only if you need to, too much blow drying dries out your ends. Don't use too much gel or hairsprays. They not only attract insects, but they dry your hair out and some do leave it greasy. Plus you have to re shower so you don't feel gross.

Without a doubt, the trick is to wash it less frequently and comb it or pass your fingers in it less frequently. The less frequently you wash your hair, the longer it looks clean between shampoos. Do it gradually, adding one day between shampoos at a time. You should easily be able to get your hair looking "clean" for four days. And, very important, use natural shampoos. Not necessarily the ones that say "natural," it's not a regulated designation. The real ones are expensive. Kiehl's or Phyto are best. Phyto Citrus is great for oily hair. Again, though, the trick is to wash less and leave it alone.

Answer 5

There are some shampoos I won't use because they leave my hair greasy too. Perhaps you need a different shampoo?

Good luck!

Answer 6

It seems if you use mousse, and hair spray, which have alcohol in them, it tends to keep the hair a little on the drier side. Too much conditioner will make your hair slick too. Try washing your hair twice, (wash, rinse, wash again), and only conditioning every second shower.... that should help :)

Answer 7

I went to beauty school. You should try washing it with a little bit of dish soap like once a week or you could also try baking soda. But the dish soap one works great. We all have different rates of producing oil in our glands and some people just plain get oily quicker than others.

Answer 8

massage baby powder into your roots - it'll help soak up some of the grease and give a little volume too, not to mention it smells good! just don't use too much or you could make your hair frizzy

Answer 9

baby powder! i'm a makeup artist and hair stylist. the talc powder obsorbs the extra "grease" from your scalp and it doesn't 'stain' white either. Just make sure you have something covering your clothing or it'll get all over your shirt.
