Subject: Alternatives to washing my hair everyday!
I've always washed my hair everyday, it's the only way to stop it looking greasy. However, I've recently dyed my hair, and obviously washing it everyday makes the colour fade really quickly!

So, I need suggestions for alternatives... Help please!

Hiya! Try washing it every other day and see how you get on for a bit, your hair gets used to being washed every day but it doesn't need it.

Try not to touch your head between washes, if your hair gets really greasy, you couyld try using Batiste dry shampoo, I use this between washes sometime and its good for volume too

Do you use conditioner? If you do, try putting it on just the ends, especially if you don't have long hair. Conditioner near the scalp can make hair greasier. I use quite a lot of styling products and touch my hair a lot (I'm a hair twiddler!) so I use a good gentle shampoo that's not full of added chemicals, and I shampoo twice if it feels like I need it to remove any build-up. I've also used the dry shampoos, they soak up some of the excess oil but they only make your hair *look* clean lol

If you dyed your hair, what colour is it? When using dry shampoos I've found that it leaves ugly white flakes that look like dandruff IF the hair is brown or black. They're pretty hard to get out. So, if you have to wash your hair again afterwards, it's pretty useless.
I always try to let the oil build up for a few day when I know I won't meet anyone.
Just a few months ago I started having the same problem as you. I'm slowly working my way back up. For two days they are nearly alright, now.
Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies.

This may have already been mentioned, have you looked at "dry shampoo", I use it sometimes. It's just a spray on shampoo which you brush out or blow dry out with your hairdryer, and supposedly cleans it, seems to work OK for me, it can get me through an extra day or two.
Cant live without my straightener and hairdryer!
