Suggest Treatment To Get Rid Of Oily Hair

I m a 23 year old female, and I tend to have oily hair within the same day of washing it. It has that gross old man smell. It bothers me so much, how can I get rid of this smell? I wash my hair everyday, I style it every other day and usually put serum on the ends( just for my split ends). Please help!

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello, for ur problem, i would advice u to use a shampoo like Xgain for washing ur scalp..Shampoos should be applied as scalp wash..You shouldnot use conditioner for ur hair as oil serves the purpose of conditioning..I would also like you to trim hair from time to time, rather than applying serum which adds to the oily appearance.
Thanks
Take care.
