Hello,
Excessive perspiration can sometimes lead to stickiness of hair. There is no medical condition as such which causes oiliness of the hair. Do clean your hair frequently with a shampoo especially available for oily hair. Do not apply any conditioner on the hair. Shampoo the hair more frequently. In case the symptoms persist then consult a dermatologist. I sincerely hope it helps. Do keep us posted. Take care and regards!
I had the same issue. It first started at the crown of my head. I read within this discussion that Listerine worked. Sadly after I used it, the stickiness went from the crown to the whole top part of my head. However, after I bought Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree oil shampoo from Sally Beauty Supply, about 80% of the stickiness went away! Then, a couple days later, I washed it again with that shampoo and it was gone. I honestly think that this is some kind of fungus on the scalp. Tea tree should help. Good luck guys. I understand your frustration. On the bright side, even though I only had this ordeal for about a week, I have been sticky free for a year now.
