The Best Hairstyles For Hiding Greasy Hair

In a perfect world, you would wake up every morning with freshly blown-out, perfectly styled hair, but unfortunately, that's not most people's reality. And on days in between washes, it can be easy for your hair to look a little flat and greasy. When that happens, though, look at it as an opportunity - after all, it's no secret that a little grease can actually help maintain certain hairstyles. From trendy baby braids to a slicked-back bun, there are a variety of hairstyles for greasy hair that you can try. Skipping a hair wash day (or two) has become the new norm for many - especially if you have a quality dry shampoo on hand to extend the look and feel of your hair. So, rather than looking at a little grease as a dilemma, we'd like to encourage you to use it as an excuse to get creative. To help you get an Instagram-worthy look, we spoke with professional hairstylists to get their insight on the best hairstyles for dirty hair. They shared their tips, tricks, and looks to ensure you have a good hair day, no matter what. Greasy Hairstyle Tips One of the most important things to remember when trying to disguise your greasy hair, according to celebrity hairstylist George Kyraikos, is to avoid having your hair completely down. "Your roots will look flat and the ends won't so you will really see the contrast," Kyraikos tells PS. This is where dry shampoo can lend a helping hand. "If your hair is too greasy, spraying some dry shampoo on your roots and flipping your hair upside down and shaking it out will give your hair a refresh at least for the day." But before you go coating your entire head in the product, Mariah Molina, editorial hairstylist at DopDop Salon in Soho, warns there is a right and a wrong way to apply it. "Spray at an arm's distance on the roots of the crown and sides of your head," she says. "If you spray too close [to your roots] it can develop a white film like baby powder." And when a spritz of dry shampoo isn't enough to hide your oily hair, Kyraikos and Molina have some hairstyles for greasy hair that work like a charm. From half-up, half-down styles to slicked-back updos, keep reading to find a list of expert-approved options that you can proudly debut on your next dirty hair day. Trust us, you won't have any need for a baseball cap or hair scarf with these - they're that good.
