Your hair can go from dirty to clean in a jiffy if you use talcum powder to absorb the grease. Liberally apply the talc and allow it to sit for several moments. When you're done, your hair will be grease-free and fresh-smelling.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Step 1

Apply a generous amount of talcum powder to your hair. Focus on the portions that are greasy, such as the roots or your bangs.
Step 2

Allow the talcum powder to rest in your hair for several minutes to absorb the maximum amount of grease from your hair.
Step 3

Brush your hair thoroughly to remove all of the talcum powder. Use a brush with tight bristles to insure its ability to remove as much of the talc with each stroke. Change brushes or rinse the brush out to remove any talc buildup that accumulates while you brush.
Step 4

Vigorously rub your hair with a towel if brushing doesn't remove the talcum powder completely.
Step 5

Repeat this process if you find your hair is still greasy. Leave the fresh talcum powder in for as long or longer than you did the first time before you brush it out.
