I've always suffered with greasy hair. At the moment I'm using pantene repair and protect which is quite good.

Greasy hair is caused when you wash it too much, it flushes out the natual oils which keep hair healthy and strong.
I used to wash my hair everyday when i was at school because the next day it would look wet with oil ! then i toned it down to washing it every other day/ every 3 days and i can now go with washing it twice a week.
Try not to use too many products in your hair as that makes it greasy, and if you can invest in some dry shampoo and use that between washes. its a godsend !

Try either Lemon juice in your normal shampoo, a cup of lemon juice diluted with water rinsed over you hair before shampooing, or a lemon based shampoo.

We had a lemon based shampoo at college for the ladies that came in with greasy hair and it worked a treat, can't remember what its called though for the life of me!

I wish my hair was greasy! i HAVE to wash it everyday or else it goes bone dry which is annoying because although i have a shower/bath everyday my hair takes so long to dry and i get all flustered from all the standing around to dry/straighten it etc. so i dont wash it everyday, now i have to or i cant leave the house

So glad you posted this because i'm having the same issue at the minute. I think it could be to do with the water though because i've moved into a new area. At the minute i'm using tesco citrus anti-dandruff but it's crap!! I'm thinking of buying some baby shampoo or a different lemon one. My hairdresser also recommended ages ago using lemon shower gel once or twice to solve the problem but i haven't been brave enough to try that x
