Try These Hacks To Get Rid Of Greasy Hair

With every hair type or struggle, half the battle is won in the shower. You could try all the styling products and tools you like, but if you're winging it or not taking extra care when washing your hair it can drastically minimize your results — especially in the case of greasy hair.

Before even applying shampoo, you should make sure you're using the right one. Words such as "glossy" or "hydrating" are unfortunately your worst enemy (via Glamour). Instead, lean towards the "clarifying" and "detox" section of the aisle. Once you've got the right shampoo for oily hair, perhaps consider double-washing to help really get into the nitty gritty of it all. This is especially true since you should be avoiding over-washing your hair by allowing a few days between each wash to stop your hair from overproducing oils (via Poosh). While you're up there, let's keep things strictly shampoo. Avoid applying any conditioner or hair masks to your roots — no extra moisture is needed here — and keep it where it's necessary, at your ends (via Bustle).

Of course, the shampoo you rinse out isn't all you'll need. Finding the right dry shampoo for your hair is imperative as well to buy you a couple of extra days of freshness. Your dry shampoo can also add some much needed volume and texture (via SheKnows).
