Try some dry shampoo between washes and try not to wash every day as it produces more oil. Wear your hair in braids and buns to hide it.

Dry shampoo actually isn't that good because it dries out your scalp... you'll have to sort of train it to not wash it that often..if you have a day were you don't go out just don't wash it..hope this makes any sense :D.

Sometimes oily hair is a side effect of a severely dry scalp. When flesh is over dry, it signals the body to produce more oil as an instinctive protectant. This is applicable to some younger women with regard to complexions as well. Perhaps incorporating a hydrating scalp treatment will provide you some relief. Most Beauty Supply stores single use packets. There may be an issue with your choice of shampoo or conditioner. Try switching those up for a few washes. You didn't make mention of tightness or itching though, which so often accompany dry scalp. This raises the possibility something else may be at play with a gland and so I wouldn't rule out consulting either a family doctor or dermatologist...if the excessive oil continues.

Ohhh I see now.. probably.. well I heard something about treating oil with oil..

I though if trying coconut oil on my hair as a mask twice a week.. is it a good idea??

I avoid coconut oil on the scalp personally.. although it conditions hair beautifully. Tea tree oil is a whole other ball of wax. Oddly enough, it's used for drying acne, yet provides relief from drying my psoriasis when used in a "treatment". Paul Mitchell and Sally Beauty Supply (Generic Brand) both make a scalp treatment containing it. When mixed with other "product" it serves an entirely different purpose. It's worth a shot, I'd say. Hope things work out for you!

The more I play with my hair the more quickly it becomes oily

Always use conditioner on your roots! Or get a new conditioner and shampoo.
