Topic: REALLY greasy hair at 38weeks?! Posted: 08 July 2010 at 12:38pm |
For the past 3 days my hair has been BEYOND greasy.... must be those pregnancy hormones?! Have washed the same etc... but its disgusting I have never had such greasy hair- ever! Its greasy right after I wash it...
Things keep getting thrown at me- what a trip this has been! Not long to go though....

Try washing it twice, once to get rid of the oil and second to let the soap lather. I know how you feel- I have to wash my hair each day or it looks gross

Arrgh, know what you mean. Mine's all over the place, sometimes too dry, sometimes too greasy, I can't win! (It's the same with my skin too - breakouts one week, dry and flaky the next WTF?!?!)
For greasy hair, definitely cut back on the conditioner, and wash twice, and avoid using product if possible. Maybe try a new shampoo specifically for greasy hair. Even just changing brands can make a difference. I've heard blow drying rather than air drying can dry it out a bit, but don't quote me on that.
Isn't pregnancy fun?!?!
Hang in there, not long to go now!!

i use herbal essence drama clean shampoo and conditioner for greasy hair and its great, i then blowdry it and also dont use hot water as that opend the pours in your head for the oil to seep out, wash hair in cold-luke warm water

Mine did the same after having Harlow, I used the tea tree shampoo and conditioner, just washed the roots, just conditioned the ends lightly, no product (a disaster for curly hair!). It eventually went away.
