A member asked:
Why does my hair get greasy after a day of washing it? could it be my thyriod its borederline or hormones?

Grease is normal: The question of why you might have greasy hair is very difficult to answer without actually seeing the patient. All scalps have oil glands and they make oil. So depending on your age group you have oil which is genetically determined. Basically this means that you have to use a de-oiling shampoo and wash more frequently.
