How to deal with combination(dry and oily) hair?

How to prevent oily hair?

  • I have oily hair. I tried dry shampoo and baby powder but it doesn't work! D: 1.) A good shampoo for oily hair? 2.) How often should I shower? 3.) Tips on preventing oily hair when showering? (ex: leaving shampoo in for a couple of mins) 4.) Product that gets rid of oils? Also, when I use heat spray this also makes my hair greasy. I only spray a little bit and its still oily. Plus I have thin hair

  • Answer:

    Many people have the same problem. Technically there is no CURE for oily hair, sadly, but there are some methods to making your hair less oily. I would shower every day or every other day. If you shower every day already, try showering everyother day, and vice versa. A good shampoo would be garnier fructis, and herbal esscenses. When showering take the tips of your fingers (not nails) and rub rub rub with all five fingers on your left and right hands. Leave it in for about 1 minute than rinse. Repeat this shampoo process. Next when conditioning, use a DOT about the size of a quarter on the palm of your hand and rub the back and underneath part of your hair NOT the top. Rinse and then blow dry your hair until its fully dry. Don't use oils like Olive oil or any products becuz it will make it worse. GOOD LUCK!

1) I don't know a good shampoo but only apply the shampoo to the top of your hair and keep the conditioner AWAY from the scalp too. 2)You should wash your hair every 1-2 days, Natural hair oils are good for the hair btw (: 3)Keep conditioner AWAY from the scalp, just put it on the ends. 4) Baby powder is a good way, also dry shampoos work well too. Spray the heat spray on your hands first than rub it into your hair :) GOOD LUCK !

Wash yur hair every other day. Your hair will get greasy and oily if you wash it daily. I use TREsemme shampoo.They come in all sorts of brands. There are ones for every type of hair, oily, thick etc I dont use conditioner when i wash my hair in the shower. I use Aveeno dry conditioner. The days that my hair looks oily when i dont wash my hair i use Aveeno Dry shampoo. IT does work really well i recommend it. It soaks up all the oils in your hair and it looks fresher.

How long do you leave your conditioner in? Leaving it in too long could make it oily. Try using less or no conditioner, then a little baby powder if it's still a little oily.

Aussie is AMAZING. Trust me. Just try it once you wont regret it. I know about this stuff. 2. Once a day if your hair is greasy or oily. 3. Shampoo your hair twice, put conditioner ONLY at the bottoms. Blow dry your hair if you want cuz that always helps it be more dry. DO NOT brush you hair when it is wet. 4. Rosewater, or just a blow dryer!
