I would try using a different shampoo & conditioner, I suggest using Herbal Essences (smells good and is really good for your hair) also you can get a different product for whatever your hair type is. I think the oily spot is just from not rinsing your hair out enough after shampooing and/or conditioning because then the products are left in your hair until the next time you wash it. Also try showering more often because that can lower the amount of oil, but the thing is your hair needs essential oils for it to be healthy otherwise it dries out, which is why I shower my hair every other day. Hope I helped & good luck.

To help it, try different shampoo`s. Different ones affect different people. Most likely your hair is oily because you are eather missing that spot while washing.. or your growing up ;] It makes your body get all out of wack & it can affect your oil producers.

Try different shampoo`s and make sure you wash your hair once a day. That will help keep the oil down. Some of my friends, on the other hand.. have to wash their hair 2 times a day.. once in the morning and once at night.. just depends on which works for you. Most likely you`ll grow out of it :]

It's possible you're just missing that spot when you shampoo. Also, use a shampoo specifically made for oily hair, like a clarifying shampoo or Head and Shoulders.

you should probably try a bunch of shampoos. there's a few options for this. you can buy dove [which comes in a white bottle with a blue cap]. on the bottle it says 'cleaning' which means it's for that. there's also the aussie shampoo that comes in a purple bottle with kangaroos on it. it's a root cleanser+tip mender, basically meaning it cleans everything. the reason for it being oily, maybe because you sweat & haven't been washing your hair properly. since it is in the back of your head, you could've missed the spots. also, you can look for shampoos for oily hair.

-hope that helped!&hearts;
