How to get rid of oily hair fast!

Let's face it, we all have times when, for one reason or another, we can't wash our hair and it looks a little greasy. Sometimes when you are camping, there is little opportunity for a shower or hair wash, or maybe you overslept and have to run out the door without a hair wash. Here is an easy tip that works GREAT in a pinch!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• baby powder or talc powder
• a comb or even a big make up brush.

1. 

   You can do this one of 2 ways:
   
   Way #1:
   - put about a teaspoon of baby powder right in your hand.
   
   Way #2:
   -put about a teaspoon of baby powder on a large tooth comb

2. Next, run your hand (with the baby powder on them) through your hair. Concentrate on the roots as well as the sides of your hair near your face line.
   or
   Run the comb with the baby powder on it through your hair focusing on your roots.

3. This will hold you over for a day :)

Tips & Warnings

• you can also put the powder on a large make up brush and apply it to the roots.
• don't use too much powder or it will show white flakes in your hair!
