I have thin and greasy hair - please help!?

Question

I have SUPER greasy roots, but the rest of my hair is sort of dry. My (side) bangs get greasy in a matter of hours and the rest of my hair gets greasy after a day... ugh! And on top of it all, my hair is really thin and I don't have a lot of it! I need help REALLY BADLY! I have tried clarifying shampoo, washing everyday, & washing every other day. I've got highlights so I had to switch from drama clean shampoo (didn't work terribly well anyways) to Kirkland. Getting highlights helped VERY little, and now I don't know what to do! I also like wearing my hair down a lot so I can't always put it up. HELP WOULD BE IMMENSELY APPRECIATED!
(Sorry if I'm spelling wrong, I'm brain dead right now)

Answer 1

I think you should get some layers,

and cause you like leaving your hair down. get some short choppy layers if you no what i mean lol...



and i no you said nothing about dandruff, but Anti Dandraff shampoo would make it less greasey, also dont put in to much conditioner...put it only on the ends of your hair.



Don't use to much leave in conditioner, or moouse... just put it on the ends....



I hope that helps!!



and no affence to the person that said to dye your hair black,

but DONT dye it black, i dyed my hair black, and it made me look REALLY pale, and i wanted to get rid of it and fade it, and it does take FOREVER...... so please, dont do that... you can if you really want, but it is a mistake....

I hope that helps!!

Answer 2

I got the hair like yours. but I tie them up when they got greasy, so they can last a bit longer. I think we both need to have a balance, healthy diet, cos hair is part of the body, the inside does affect the outside, And I try use a wooden comb to comb your hair morning and night, can prevent and reverse hair loss, promote the blood circulation around the scalp, carry the natural oil down the hair, it is very good on my hair, my hair now is very shine and less grease

Answer 3

Answer 4
