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

I'm Currently Feeling: | 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'm Currently Feeling: | 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  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | 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 |
