what do you think i should do?? i dont really want to go buy anything new ..my mom wont let me! such as an expensive straightner, shampoo, etc.
I know it sounds like a horrible idea but you need to get to washing your hair just two or three times a week and the only way you will do it is to leave it for a couple of days a time while it is greasy because it doesn't matter what you use at the moment, it will still feel the same.
As for the issue with straightening your hair, I had the same problem. Couldn't do anything with it so straightened twice a week and it took me between 2 and 3 hours each time but you HAVE to stop straightening it so often. Try visiting a salon and asking what would be good for unruly hair that doesn't scrunch or curl. The best thing I have found is Well Shock Waves Curl Shaping Mousse but I don't know if you can get that where you are. I would recommend, however, that you do find a good mousse. Bear in mind your hair might not take to it to begin with so you can't give up if it doens't look great the first time. The damage you will have done to your hair when straightening it will be what is making it so hard to do anything with. I looked awful the first few times I moussed instead of straightening it but it's calmed right down and I haven't touched my straighteners since November so it's really worth a go.
By the way, as for the price thing, it'snot necessarily the price that determines how good something is. The mousse I use is £2 something for 200ml and it works perfectly but there are more expensive serums, creams etc that I have tried which don't work at all! So if it's a little cheaper, just give it a try and you might find your miracle cure. [ Vikki27's advice column | Ask Vikki27 A Question ]

babiigirl answered Thursday April 27 2006, 9:48 pm: Im not to sure if this is positively true. Two years ago i used to wash my hair every day and i eventually got lice. No fromt he shampoo lol but like if anybody around you has lice it is more likely to go to your hair. Because lice is attracted to clean hairr. Other then the lice problem my mom says it can damage your hair im not sure tho. There good and non-expensive shampoos in the stores that will help with oily hair. So it wont be oily the next day.
