Lately my hair has been feeling very sticky, oily, and matted down. Even the day after I wash my hair it looks like I haven't washed it in four days. In the shower when my hair is wet, it still feels sticky and matted. I haven't changed much in my hair routine except for two things. 1.) I used that Suave Keratin Infusion shampoo and conditioner (didn't work) and I noticed that it was making my hair the way it is now, so I stopped and went back to my regular shampoo and conditioner. 2.) I've been straightening my hair twice a week every week for maybe a month, more or less.

After I switched back to my normal shampoo and conditioner, it went back to normal. But recently it has gone back to the way it was on the Keratin stuff.

Also, sometimes my hair isn't completely dry after I straighten it (my hair is thick and takes 4 hours to dry)

Any advice? I really hate my hair right now.

Keratin is really dried out and damaged hair so it makes sense that it would be making your hair greasier.

There are a couple things that you could be doing wrong,

1. your conditioner is probably too heavy for your hair.

2. you aren't rinsing your conditioner out completely

3. don't put conditioner all over your head just put it on the ends of your hair, putting it on your scalp can give you that greasy look.

4. NEVER EVER EVER use a flat iron on your hair when it is wet EVER, it is soooo horrible for your hair.

My advice to you is to try a couple new shampoos, and maybe only try using conditioner every other time that you wash your hair instead of every time.
