Excessive Hair Oil
It doesn’t matter how often I wash my hair, it still seems lank and greasy. What can I do?
To begin, make sure that you are using a shampoo and conditioner that is formulated for oily hair. If you are already doing so, you might find that the combination of styling products, sunscreen and sweat, have resulted in your hair becoming limp and greasy. To combat product build up, minimize the amount of extra styling aids you use in your hair and always rinse thoroughly after shampooing. If your hair still seems oily, apply shampoo directly to dry hair, scrub gently and then rinse well. This way, the cleansing agents in the shampoo can attack the oil, rather than the water.

Chlorine
Swimming in chlorine leaves my blonde hair with an ugly green tinge. How can I get rid of it?
To restore your hair’s blonde tones, try rinsing it in mineral or soda water as the bubbles help to lift out the chlorine. Alternatively, try rinsing your hair with 150 ml of store bought tomato or cranberry juice, as the red pigment helps to neutralize the green tinge: simply pour the juice through your hair, leave for a couple of minutes and then rinse thoroughly with water, To prevent chlorine from discoloring and drying out your hair, wear a swimming cap.
