Anyone else??

Question

I have never had any issues with my hair. Now 15 weeks pregnant and my hair is driving me crazy. It is so greasy/oily. My husband says he can't tell but I can see and feel it. I shower daily and I've tried switching shampoos every few showers and nothing is working. Even stopped using conditioner. Anyone else having this problem? And have any recommendations of product to try??

Answer

The more you wash it the more oils you're going to produce, so try to cut back on washing it so frequently.  Plus it's damaging to your hair to wash it so often.  Maybe switch out your shampoo also and condition just the ends if your hair, not your scalp.  Buy a dry shampoo.  It helps get rid of oil.  I use it every other day when I don't wash my hair.

Answer

Get some dry shampoo.

Answer

My hair is a hot mess, also falling out! I had to change my whole routine but I totally caved and went to a salon that has natural products and asked what to do. I have curly hair, but have been using Orbe products. It's sucks because they are expensive, but its helped me so much. Second, jojoba oil on my scalp has helped after the shower and baby powder. I use jojoba oil on my face too and it's helped!

Answer

If you can put a little bit of baby powder at your scalp but not to much it can help with the grease ! If you are dark headed go very easy with it or you will have a white head!

Answer

I've had the same problem and I'm using Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo. Because hormones change and our bodies become so sensitive when we are pregnant you can react differently to products you used to use everyday. Try using only a tiny amount of conditioner. I use the baby shampoo and rinse and repeat. Then literally a pea sized amount of conditioner. My hair is thick and almost all the way down my back. I've always had to use a ton of product until now.

Answer

Same here. I now use the tea tree by Paul Mitchell and problem solved

Answer

Oh man!! Me too!!!!!! I no longer jave the bouncy, flowy hair I had pre-pregnancy! I pray this oily mess stops!

Answer

This happens to me occasionally when I'm pregnant, too. Definitely rotate shampoos and try mixing some baking soda in with your shampoo and really work it into your scalp. That seems to kind of cut through the oil. Its weird, but it works!
