"  &amp;quot;My hair is really oily, even if I wash it twice a day! Is there any way that I can change that?&amp;quot; Simone, 14, Dallas, TX We&amp;#039;ll go for grease in our fries or on a cheesy pizza, but in our hair? Not so much. The trouble is, though, that people who have oily hair actually have an oily scalp. With straight hair, the oil slides away from the scalp more quickly and seeps into your tresses (which explains why curls tend to be drier!). The next time you shampoo, avoid piling the ends of your hair on top of your head \u2014 instead, give yourself a nice scalp massage to soak up excess oil. Use a shampoo specifically designed for oily hair, like Pantene Pro-V Clarifying Purity Shampoo, $4, at drugstores. Wash your hair once a day, but cut down on conditioning. Apply just a nickel-size dollop to the ends every few days, as conditioner only helps your hair become oily faster. For a last-minute fix, sprinkle some talcum powder onto your roots to absorb any lingering greasiness. It will blend into your hair and won&amp;#039;t be noticeable \u2014 we promise!
