My hair is terrible?

all my life I have had very thin hair. i am in my 40's now and look almost bald. also, my hair is VERY oily. i have to wash it every day. it gets so oily that sometimes i have to wash it more.

I DON"T use products of any kind.(mousse, or gels and spray).

i use only shampoo.(no conditioner)

if i use products it makes it worse. I have tried every kind of thickining product avialable, nothing works.

i use pantene "fullerhair" shampoo. thats it.

how can i stop it from being so oily?

Try an acidic rinse. One way to decrease the oil is to rinse with diluted vinegar or lemon juice after shampooing. Add two tablespoons white vinegar to one cup water, or mix the juice of one lemon (strained) with one cup water. Rinse the mixture through your hair, then rinse your hair with warm water.

Alcohol. Any kind of alcoholic beverage has a nice drying effect. The higher the alcohol content the better. Mix a shot glass full of alcohol with a couple cups of water and rinse through your hair. Yes, you have to rinse it out. And don't drink the rinse water!

Cider vinegar. Soak your hair in a small basin of water with 1/4 cup cider vinegar -- or put the concoction in a spray bottle and rinse through your hair, then wash out with warm water. This helps control nasty shampoo buildup.

Tea. Rinse your hair in diluted tea. Tea contains tannic acid, an astringent, which can cut the oil.

Beer. Beer can have a drying effect, and it cleans right down to your scalp, leaving your hair with a healthy shine.

Lemon juice. Mix the equivalent of the juice from 1 lemon with 1 cup water and rinse through your hair, then rinse with warm water. Lemon juice can help control shampoo buildup, too.

I know people with similar problems. What their doctor told them to do was get Rogaine for Women. Both of my friends said it helped a lot.

There are also some products you could research in Europe that are said to help alot. My one friend did that before her wedding and it made a remarkable difference. Although it was quite expensive.

In the mean time, instead of washing your hair so much, try sprinkling a little bit of baby powder onto your brush and then gently brush your hair with it. The baby powder adsorbs the oils leaving your hair nice. Also its not as harsh on your hair as washing frequently will be.

Also, Pantene shampoos are full of wax, which could be contributing to your "oily" look rather than helping it. Coonsider changing your shampoo to something more suitable for delicate hair - like Johnson and Johnson's baby shampoo.

I hope that helps. :)
