i know this seems counterintuitive, but greasy hair often means your hair is overproducing oils because it is being washed—and the natural oils are being stripped—too often, and it is trying to compensate for this! try washing less and you will ~hopefully~ see results! i struggled with super greasy hair during my teen years and towards the end of high school i finally changed my washing habits and ive never had greasy hair since (over a decade)! and ive had bangs nearly my whole life. i also recommend dry shampoo if you need it between washes, some companies make travel sizes so you can carry some with you!

if you have thin/fine hair, free yourself of the notion that once a week is the ideal or whatever. You will never be able to “train” your hair into being less greasy but you can feel amazing and have a reliably good hair day everyday with a fresh wash.

before you get grossed out and liken me to pigpen from charlie brown...
most big brand shampoos have harmful chemicals that dry out your hair and scalp, then coat your hairs in silicone which is really not good. I got off shampoo a month ago, and my hair is almost never oily, never smells, and always looks really nice and not poofy.
I also only wash my hair every three or four days. with water only.
Yeah this sounds pretty gross looking back at it. I swear it's not.
