I already had oily hair, but it was usually fine when I washed it. Now that I am pregnant, washing it doesn't seem to help. Anybody had this problem and know what kind of shampoo or what might help??? thanks.

Hey there! I am so glad I wasn't the only one with this problem. Yes the same thing happened to me. Everyone told me that my hair should look its best when you are pregnant, Well that's embarrassing id it looks like I put my head in an oil bucket. I hate to say but not much helped. I did find a few things that eased up the oil a little. That is not touching your hair with your fingers, try different hair styles too. Don't use conditioner except on you ends if you need and try doing that only twice a week. As for shampoos use clear ones that say clarifying. Herbal Essence makes a nice one. Also to go against that I just found one that you can find in most supermarkets that works but is Aussie. It's not clear but it says its for oily scalp. I really find this to work well. I sometimes have to shampoo twice in the shower but I also leave it in a few extra minutes before I wash it. Good luck and once the baby is born you will forget about your hair. Also i used to ask people and I think it always looked worse to me than it really did. Your belly is probably getting the attention anyway so try not to worry about your hair. Congrats again!

I have very fine hair and it's very straight. If I shower in the morning, it will be oily the next morning. I use Dove Shampoo and I love it. I also use the conditioner. Try not using as much conditioner if you can.

Use clear shampoos. Anything that you cant see through is adding things to your hair, which can result in grease.
Also, avoid brushing it during the day, as that only increases oil production. And keep it up and out of your face, pulled back in a clip or pony tail.
It very well may pass as your pregnancy progresses. Its just one of those funky parts of hormones. :)

I had to lay off the conditioner because I found that was my problem! Now I ONLY condition once a week and that helped mine! GOOD LUCK
