What can I do about oily hair?

My hair gets oily within a day of washing it. This means I wash it everyday. I've tried shampoos and conditioners for oily hair but they don't work. Also talcum powder doesn't work, it doesn't brush out of my hair because my hair's thin. Does anyone know what I can do? Thanks for your help.

What can I do about oily hair?

does the shampoo that you are using have moisture in it? is it a two in one? if so...this could be the start of your problem. if you already have oily hair...you are adding it to your hair. if you are using a two in one, the shampoo is not doing its job. it is not cleaning properly. use seperate shampoo. you may not need a conditioner since it's oily,and it's thin. If it tangles due to the fineness...then use a LIGHT spray in conditioner. Another thing to ask is....are your rinsing properly? Make sure you totally rinse ALL of the product out. What ever product you use, check out the lable, you probably need something like a clairifying shampoo to strip out the excess oil. good luck

Actually, Dawn's direct foam dish washing stuff helps. use it as shampoo. Also before you take a shower (with dry hair) apply the shampoo while it's dry. If you have a sally's beauty salon in your town, ask for this shampoo that sprays out of a bottle. that's a quick fix.

i know exactaly what your talking about. my wife has the same problem even with the thin hair. what she does is she mixes 1 cup of maple syrup and 2 eggs then washes her hair with it once a week. the she finishes up with a rinse with finesse. her mom made this recipe a long *** time ago. and it really works. you should see results about the 3rd time you use it.

What can I do about oily hair?

For oily hair that needs frequent washing, avoid using shine-enhancing products, which can make greasy hair look stringy. Don't use creamy conditioners and waxes that stay on the hair shaft and put your oil production into overdrive. Don't over-brush. Use a dab of leave-in conditioner on the ends only, avoiding the scalp. After you have styled your hair, avoid fingering it or running your fingers through it.

Frequent washing does not encourage the production of oil.

What can I do about oily hair?

Okay, first of all stop using shampoos and conditioners for oily hair. All they are doing is stripping the natural oils from your hair so your scalp is going into overdrive and producing more oil to make up for what you washed out. Try using shampoos that have a creamy base, meaning they don't look transparent/clear, they are opaque looking. ex: pantene These types generally won't strip the oil from your hair. Buy a shampoo for normal or dry hair ( I know this sounds weird but trust me).

Also, instead of washing your hair everyday, on the second day try baby/talcum powder but use it sparingly, just on the top of your head where the oil shows and just a little at a time. Lightly dust it in and then flip your head over, shake as much as you can out and then if there is any remaining take a damp paper towel and blot it out.

This is what works for me, hope it does for you.
