Hi Everyone,

I'm growing out my hair from a pixie cut and I was wondering if I should be conditioning my hair? It's still pretty short and my hair's been pretty oily lately, so I'm just wondering if it's necessary.

Thank you!

Shampoo strips the hair of oil, so if you shampoo often, it will get greasier. I suggest trying the No Poo method (google it). I am going to try it, but I'm getting my hair done on Sat so I'm leaving it until after then. Conditioner adds moisture, so I'd avoid it. Try teatree hair shampoo and only wash it every 2/3 days or so.. I know it seems like ages but if it starts to get greasy in the meantime, brush a little baby powder on the roots. I've been told by countless people lately that dry shampoo is REALLY bad for the scalp.

Hope this helped; it made my hair tonnes better!
