Q: i use finesse shampoo and conditioner every night because my hair gets so greasy if i dont.
now its getting to the point where its getting greasy even though i shower. its also getting fried. I dont know why my hair is so damaged, i dont straighten my hair or blow dry it that much.. probably 2 times a week? i also have very very fine hair.

can anyone give me tips to have my pretty hair back??? thanks!
I agree with the other answers. I read somewhere that you should avoid putting conditioner right at the roots, since your scalp produces oil anyway...this especially applies to you, since you already have fine hair that is prone to getting oily.

It probably isn't a good idea to shampoo your hair every day- for most people, once every other day is fine. You could try using less conditioner, as the others have mentioned. Also, see what type of shampoo/conditioner you are using, and if it's suitable for your hair type.

You might want to try using a clarifying shampoo, that could help with the excess oil. Also, Finesse and some other similar shampoos might be causing buildup, which can make your hair dull and damaged in the long run. I recommend using a natural shampoo, or even Neutrogena Clean (helps with buildup). Or, try Head and Shoulders- the citrus one, or ocean breeze are good. Head and Shoulders new line of shampoos are great, not at all like a typical dandruff shampoo- also with formulas for all hair types. Try one of the above regularly, and you should see improvement.


thanks
