Gross hair?!

[user1484167681]

Hi, this has been really bothering me- I've not changed my hair care routine in any way but for the last 3 weeks or so the top of my head is getting really... oily?! I think? I don't know, I've never had this problem before so I'm not even certain whether that's the right description.

I heard I would have a full head of luscious pregnancy locks, but 25 weeks in I look worse than ever! It's trivial, I know, but irritating.

Am I alone?? Has anyone else had this, and what do you advise? Any particularly good shampoos out there. I'll have to upgrade from my trusty Head and Shoulders :(

Had exactly this! Bloody horrible eh. I used the t-gel medicated shampoo for greasy hair, really lifted that lank greasy patch.

THANK YOU. I thought I was imagining it... washed my comb really carefully, have started double-shampooing that patch really gently in case I'm not washing it all out or something... as if I didn't feel gross enough with the rest of my pregnancy-bod and symptoms...!

This happened to me.. I'm only 16 weeks but a couple of weeks ago I could almost feel the oilyness on top before I even stepped out of the shower! I switched to l'oreal elvive rebalancing shampoo and it has definitely helped..

This is the first sign for me that I'm pregnant every time. This time I ran my fingers through my hair and thought hmmm that's not good! A few days later bfp! It normally reduces for me in second trimester though! Think it's common though!
