Guest guest Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 My eight year old has had very oily hair for the past year or two and nothing we have tried has worked. Even just after washing her hair it looked oily/greasy. Has anyone else encountered this and have you found anything that may treat it as well as what could be causing the issue?

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Darla, I really don't know of any reason she may have oily hair, other than it is just her body chemistry or she is starting puberty. I just read an article about hair types and it suggested blotting baby powder by the scalp. It is supposed to absorb the oil. Not sure if this works, as I have the complete opposite problem. (All my hair is dry and falling out!) Best wishes Find files on your PC instantly with the new MSN Toolbar Suite beta – FREE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
