Why is my hair suddenly so greasy?

[Wallaroo21]

I’m 32 with long mid back length hair. For as long as I can remember I have washed and conditioned my hair every 2/3 days using a styling serum whilst damp and blow drying it.

Suddenly, even hours after washing, my hair is so greasy, nothing has changed that I can pinpoint so what could it possibly be?

Any reason you might be having hormonal changes? This happened to me recently, I had just come off the Pill for first time in years.

It could be the shampoo and conditioner, so many of them don’t clean my hair well enough anymore, I have wash 3 times with shampoo, which makes it a bit better.

Build up of products on straighteners, brush/comb or pillowcases?

It could be build up of products, try a clarifying shampoo.

It might be a problem with the shampoo and conditioner. Of course, it could also be that the essence is too greasy.

Do you use Elvive? They’ve changed their formula and it’s making hair look limp.
