So basically I'm able to wash my hair and it stays pretty nice throughout the whole day I've washed it, then ill wake up the next morning and it's greasy! I can't wash it everyday because I know it's not good for you, and I'm sick of using dry shampoos all the time!
Does anyone have a similar problem or tips that would help? It's so annoying!

I have the exact same problem but there's nothing that can be done about it I just have to wash my hair every night (or morning) I just mix shampoos that helps me.

If you use conditioner just use it on the tips of your hair and a little up don't use it on your scalp that makes it greasy.

Sometimes the amount of products in your hair esp. Conditioners can make your hair oily easier. Still haven't found out what I should do about it though.

Try using sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner. Normal shampoos leave nasty residue and dry out your hair. I use Live Clean. Also, every other wash, I use a clarifying shampoo to remove any product buildup. I try not to use dry shampoo because it builds up on my scalp and its hard to get off.
It took me about 2 months, but I've trained my hair to only need to be washed every other day. It doesn't get greasy on the second day at all!
Try not to use any hair products or straighten your hair. Straightening it pulls the oil through your hair making it appear greasier. Curling is good though because it pulls the hair away from your scalp so the oil can't travel as fast!
Hope this helps!

You need to use a clarifying shampoo twice a week. Not something you pick up at Sally's but your local salon. You need to get into the routine of salon quality products. Also look for products that are vegan, this will help!!

I have the same hair! But I have to wash my hair everyday or else I feel disgusting and ill even wake up in the middle of the night from having nightmares about my greasy hair.

This is what I do:
I wash my hair with Head&Shoulders because, yes, I do get dandruff but only if I don't use it and then use Head&Shoulders conditioner. I figured my hair is actually less greasy if I DO NOT rub the conditioner into my scalp and only put it in most of the length and focus on the tips. Works out really well. :)

Baby powder really helps! Use your fingers or a fluffy brush to blend it all in. I've heard of baking soda but never tried it. Baby powder works for me, just make sure to brush/blend it.

Suppose trying to rub baking soda on your scalp or dry oatmeal will soak up the oil. I haven't tried it but I've read it in Internet articles. Try google searching :)
