Greasy Hair

I wash my hair every day & by lunch time it already looks like I haven't washed it in days I tried washing it every other day instead, but that didn't help & I tried changing shamp/cond and that didn't help! Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this? Perhaps a specific shampoo that worked for you? Thanks!

Re: Greasy Hair

Do you brush it during the day? If you do stop- I find that makes the grease "spread"

ETA: Also, do you condition just the ends?

Re: Greasy Hair

Thanks I don't usually brush it during the day...I have frizzy hair & if I brush it too much it turns into a rats nest

Since it gets very tangled & knotted left on its own, I usually condition it all...do you think I should try just doing the ends? At this point I'd be willing to give it a shot.

ETA: Sorry for my ignorance - I usually have pretty dry hair, so this is all new to me

Re: Greasy Hair

You do wash it in the AM right? Even pre preggers I could never get away with washing it the night before. I've always been a greaseball..

Awww

I wash it in the morning...I need the cold water to wake me up

Re: Greasy Hair

If I do not shower everyday , my roots get greasy as well, and I never condition the roots, only mid way and the ends, and then I comb it out in the shower and rinse well. Otherwise I look like a grease ball .

Re: Greasy Hair

Thanks ladies - I'll try just conditioning the ends & see how it goes

For the first 10-12 weeks of my pregnancy my hair was a big grease ball. I just shampooed and put it back and didn't look in the mirror. It eventually went back to normal aside from the fact that it grows so fast now!

Re: Greasy Hair

try shaking some baby powder into your hair - it absorbs the grease.

one of my sorority sisters used to do this to make her blow outs last longer -
