    also as i was told by my hair dresser, the more you wash the hair the more your going to stimulate the scalp and cause more oil, its a viscous circle, best thing to do is to try and go as long as you can bear without washing your hair and dry shampoo inbetween this will hopefully breaik the cycle and your head should start to produce less sebum.

    I would suggest you use products with little or no silicone (dimethicone) in them, I like Tigi superstar, also if you do use silicone products try not to use heat on your hair, it hardens the build up and its impossible to remove by just washing causing over loaded hair, its hard to get used to not using either silicone based products or heat but the effort will be well worth it long term:)
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future
