Answer 1

You may have build-up from styling products and conditioning shampoos.

The best clarifying shampoo is Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo. (http://www.neutrogena.com/ProductsDetails_16.asp) It is available at drugstores and really works without completely stripping your hair.

Use it at least one a week. You can follow with a light conditioner. Try to skip using hair styling products a few times a week. Jojoba oil is a good way to tame fly aways. It is non-comedogenic and will condition your hair. Just put a tiny drop in the palm of your hand and rub them together before smoothing it through your hair. It washes out easily too. I prefer the Desert Essence brand and get it at Trader Joe's for a good price. (www.desertessence.com)

You may also consider switching from a 2 in 1 product as most people complain of build up when using them often.

Answer 2

Sometimes shampoos can cause buildup. Try using a different shampoo and conditioner and see if that helps.
