Oily Scalp & Dry hair?

[mmiiccxx]

Like a lot of people, my hair & scalp is a combination of both oily & dry. I am currently 13 years old. My mom has the same problem & her father has oily scalp as well though his hair is also oily. In short, it's hereditary. I hope that someone could help me regarding this issue.

Thanks in advance. :)

Thank you for the suggestion. I would just like to ask how many times should I shampoo my hair a day? And should I use conditioner?

Hi,
It's a particularly common problem for those of the many people with a combination hair crisis.  Your scalp is oily and super-sebaceous, but your hair remains dry as a bone.
  The best bet for your oily scalp-area hair is to massage regular shampoo (none of those shampoo-conditioner combos) into it, cleaning the hair closest to your scalp in the process.  Avoid the dry lengths of hair as you do this.  You can even let it sit on your scalp for a few minutes.  Be sure to rinse completely when you're done!
Reduce your dry hair washing to only a few times a week, and use a gentle shampoo that contains humectants.  These humectants attract moisture and, at the same time, keep the moisture in your hair.
In  your effort to reduce the dryness in your combination hair, find an oil that will fill in for the absent sebum - one that behaves similarly to sebum in our hair.  Non-essential oils will just coat the cuticle, keeping moisture locked out. Jojoba oil is a good example.
