    Oily Hair
    I have Indian(Asian) hair. It is naturally straight. It gets oily very fast. Is there anything I can do about it besides washing more frequently?

    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Hormones affect oil production and therefore things that affect your hormone levels such as stress or birth control pills may also affect the oiliness of your hair.

    Oily hair needs thorough cleansing to remove excess oil. You should use a shampoo especially designed for oily hair. Clarifying shampoos can remove the oily residue. If you use conditioner, use a light conditioner and apply it to the ends of your hair.
