I shampoo every other day with pure zeros biotin shampoo and conditioner, and I don’t wash it at all on the other days. It gets kinda greasy and looks bad. I also wake up with dandruff on the back of my head. So may ppl on this site r saying that wavy hair naturally means a dry scalp, but mine is so oily. Should I just give up and shampoo every day?? I’m also losing some hair in the shower I’m getting fin. I use biolage anti dandruff once a week.

The best days in general for my hair r the days I shampoo. It looks so much better and I love the frizz/volume I get

Apply less shampoo, do this gradually though.

If you just suddenly apply less shampoo then it may not make a difference, however if you do it gradually then you'll see a difference within a week or two. Maybe look at changing your shampoo to a healthier one?
But how?? Even if I go just one extra day without shampoo, my hair gets so flat and oily. I barely make it through the day with my hair on the days I don’t shampoo

Change conditioner or apply less
 
Bro stop shampooing so often, do it 1x or 2x a week, u have oily scalp because shampoo stricts all of your oils away so ur body produces it even more.

It means you have shit scalp genetic

I have the same problem. Mine gets itchy and i wake up with a bunch of small dandruff on my head. In certain lightning, they are even MORE visible and even after shampooing, it didn't rid

I deadass just take accutane to stop oil from producing
 
Also no, getting a better shampoo is very minimal. They all contains sulfate (which is good to clean ur scalp), and sulfate-free shampoos don't really work (from experience)

My hair gets oily and flat even for just one day without shampooing. The sides get kinda spiky too

When you shower, you don't need to use shampoo. Just wetting your hair is fine. Shower as normal, just don't use so much shampoo. Shampoo 2-3 times a week, all the other times you shower just use the water.

I tried using just water yesterday (which was my second day with no shampoo)… my hair was extremely clumpy (? Not sure if that’s the right word), oily, and spiky on the sides. I had to shampoo it today and now it’s back to having volume and looking good

the word is knotty, you use a comb/brush for that

it'll feel oily but you just use conditioner then
 
its like the treatment to get ppl to stop doing nicotine they gradually lower the dose
