Can anyone recommend a shampoo for greasy hair but doesn't cause dandruff? My child is either one or the other and can't seem to find something that doesn't cause one or the other Confused any help appreciated x

My DS was the same, Vosene was the answer.
But I have to hide it when my hair stylist bestie comes round as I get a row!

I second that shampoo is brilliant and also makes a good shower gel too

I have lots of thin hair that used to get very greasy. Moved to a kids 2 in 1 shampoo, wash twice and don't use conditioner. If my hair feels like it needs conditioner then I use some leave in stuff just on the ends.

Since moving to this approach I can wash it just twice a week and it doesn't get greasy.

Agree with washing twice. Work the first lot right in to loosen the grease, rinse then wash again. If you use conditioner, only use it on the ends, below the ears.

My daughter suffered badly with greasy hair - she's moved onto head and shoulders who do a 2 in 1 citrus version specifically for greasy hair. It's tons better, she can go several days without washing it now whereas she looked greasy after 1 day previously. She doesn't suffer with dandruff, but being head and shoulders it should be good from that side of things too
