I need help!! I recently chemically treated my hair to make it straight in Korea. I have short bob cut at the back with longer end at the front.
I have a very oily scalp, for instance, if I wash my hair in the morning, sometimes by the end of the day it is quite oily or next morning. So, it is a must that I should wash my hair everyday and also use blow dryer. But due to chemical treatment, I think my ends are dry. Earlier when I had long hair, I could skip everyday hair wash as I could style it by braiding it or something..but now it is impossible!!
I think this is quite harsh for my hair. Help!!

Hair straightening is also a huge fad from where I come from. Make sure that you still use a conditioner every time you wash your hair but find something that is not thick to make your scalp even more oily. I was using Lory's hair cream in snake oil (Brazilian brand) when I had my hair chemically treated - but I think this might not be widely available. You may also want to try clarifying shampoos/conditioners (Neutrogena anti-residue shampoo) to clear out the scalp from gunk left over from chemicals, previous shampoo, styling gel, etc. But be careful on this because it can make your hair more dry.
