My hair is getting oily even after a day or two of washing it ?continuation i wash it really good and i don't use hairspray or any hair products in it

Normal hair: Many people find that they have to wash their hair every day. You might actually be over-stimulating your scalp if you are washing harshly and frequently, increasing oil production. Use a shampoo for your hair type, and try not to touch your hair too much with your hands during the day. If your hair is straight, brushing it gently a few times a day can help.
