What's up with my greasy hair?

My hair has always been healthy, but now since I got older I guess it got greasy. Why?
 
Don’t worry, chica. Greasy hair is completely normal. It’s possible that your hair is now greasy because you’re getting older, and your body is producing more hormones. These hormones are making your glands produce more oils, which in turn can make your hair look and feel greasy.
 

If you’re trying to cut the oil slick, consider your shower routine. If you’re scrubbing your hair every night, you might want to change it up to every other day. Washing your hair to frequently can encourage the sebaceous glands on your scalp to produce even more oil. Another factor? Your conditioner. Ditch leave-ins that can make your hair limp and oily and try conditioning only the ends. A tea tree oil-based conditioner could also help ya get rid of the grease.

 

Good luck, girlie!

MOD MOD MOD!
So on Friday I am getting purple streaks, any tips on how to wear it in a ponytail and with a headband so that the streaks show?!
Thanx!!! x0x0




Hey girl, I'd just be sure when you're brushing your hair to make sure your streak is in the front part of your hair style (i.e. not in the back of your hair or buried in the middle in a ponytail). It shouldn't be too hard, but a mirror is also a great way to gauge too.

MOD MOD MOD! I wash my hair everyday, but sometimes on the day I wash it, it sometimes gets greasy at the end of the day! Do you know why that happens?

 

 

Hey girl. You are probably using the wrong product or your hair just naturally produces more oil. Talk to a stylist about this one to see what will work for you.

@2cool2bark Hey! Some things that might help are styling mousse or a spray to put in yout hair before you straighen. I use the John Frieda styling creme and it works great! It even helps your hair dry faster when it's super soaked, and it smells good. When my hair is dry, I use TRESemme heat protection spray. It'll protect your hair from the straightener and help keep your hair straighter for a longer period of time. Hope this helps! If you have anymore questions, come to my Advice Queens page (ILoveBigTimeRush1) and feel free to ask any questions you may have(:
