3rd Trimester

Greasy Hair (vent)

Ugh.  It's getting WORSE.  I've always been one of those people who only had to wash their hair every few days, then in first tri I started washing every other day, and now I'm washing every single day and it's still really greasy.  I'm also breaking out behind my ears. 

I'm open to suggestions if anyone has any!

  • You may want to try a shampoo that is for oily hair or TIGI has come out with a dry shampoo that is really good for soaking up oil.  I am going to hit up the Paul Mitchell site and see what I can find.
  • I have to wash my hair everyday regardless!

  • I used to wash my hair every other day, but now since being pregnant I have to wash it every day or I look like a complete and total grease monkey. It sucks big time!!

    I have to second the TIGI dry shampoo.  I've never had to wash my hair more often than every other day (and that's when I've been sweating, I usually shampoo every third day), but my hair and scalp have gone haywire while I've been pregnant.  If I shampoo every day my hair makes me pay for it, so my stylist suggested that dry shampoo.  I love it.

  • this sometimes works for me...depending on how greasy, but rub baby powder in your scalp, or get the dry shampoo or powdered shampoo (try sephora, or look online)

    Im with you about my hair, it is greaser but in general my hair is down right disgusting!! I put it up almost everyday or contemplate on wearing a hat. I wish i had beautiful pregancy hair like my sister had. :(

    This. I have thin hair and it looks greasy by the end of the day regardless of pregnancy. I usually wash my hair twice a day.

  • Ok, thanks for the help.  Is the TIGI shampoo something I get at Sally's or just the regular drugstore or a salon?

  • I <3 dry shampoo!  The expensive ones smell better; but the stuff at CVS, etc. work really well, too!  Good luck!

  • When my hair gets like this, I wash it in the morning and dry it almost all the way. I then comb it back into a low ponytail and puts clips in. I try not to touch it all day. The more you touch your hair, the greasier it gets.
  • When my hair is starting to get greasy I sprinkle a little baby powder in the top and brush it in and it really helps.

    Yep, and if you are blonde you can get away with dusting on some regular baby powder. Gently shake on small sections of roots, and rub through with a towel.
