Fixing Oily Hair

Hi, I'm Amelia, and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to talk about troubles that you have with your hair. Now the best way to get rid of oily hair obviously is to wash it. Well let's say you get up late for work and you don't have time. A quick fix would be to take some corn starch or baby powder, and you don't want to use a lot. The reason why I'm using corn starch is because that will actually absorb oil, and baby oil, baby powder usually has corn starch it in. And you don't use a lot, because if not, I mean if so, you'll get little white spots on your hair. Now that looks scary right now, but let me show you what we're going to do. The corn starch actually goes in and absorbs the oil. There's a lot of products on the market now too, that help help with this, and they even have powders that have color in them, so you don't have to worry about the white spots. So I'm going to take my dryer on low. The whole idea is to really shake that powder down towards the scalp because obviously that's where the source of the oil is. And as you can see, that oil is absorbed, and now you can rush off to work.
