The height draws attention upward and away from the scalp area, where grease typically shows first.
Divide hair into two equal sections, create high ponytails on either side of your head, then twist each ponytail into a bun and secure with pins.
Gently tug at each bun for fullness.
The separated buns distribute oil more evenly while creating an intentionally playful silhouette.
21: Low Braided Bun
This sophisticated style combines braiding and twisting techniques to create texture that disguises greasiness.
The low placement works perfectly for professional settings while solving oily hair issues.
Create a loose braid with all your hair, coil it into a circular bun at the nape, and then secure it with pins.
Gently pull at the braid and bun for added texture and fullness.
The braided texture absorbs oil while creating an elegant dimension that is suitable for work or special events.
22: Faux Undercut Braid
This edgy style creates the illusion of an undercut by incorporating tight, close-to-the-scalp braids on one side.
The braids absorb oil while creating a bold, fashion-forward look.
Create a deep side part, then cornrow or french braid the section with less hair very close to the scalp.
Style the remaining hair as desired, either loose or in a ponytail.
This contemporary style transforms greasy roots into an opportunity for creative expression.
23: Twisted Rope Braid Ponytail
This unique style combines twisting techniques with a ponytail for interesting texture.
The twisted elements absorb oil while creating sophisticated dimension.
Divide the hair into two sections, twist each section, then twist the two twisted sections around each other.
Secure it with an elastic and wrap a small section of hair around the base.
The multiple twists create texture that disguises oiliness while looking intentionally styled.
24: Claw Clip French Twist
This effortless style uses a claw clip to create a sophisticated French twist in seconds. The twisted technique hides oily roots while looking deliberately polished.
Gather hair at the back of your head, twist upward, and secure with a claw clip. If desired, pull out a few face-framing pieces for softness.
This practical style takes advantage of your hair’s natural oils for better hold and sleekness.
25: Zigzag Ponytail
This playful style uses a zigzag part to create texture and interest at the roots.
The unconventional parting distracts from oiliness, adding a unique detail to a simple ponytail.
Using the end of a tail comb, create a zigzag part, then gather hair into a ponytail at your preferred height.
The unexpected parting becomes the focal point rather than oily roots.
This simple technique transforms an ordinary ponytail into something special while solving greasy hair issues.
Conclusion
Greasy hair provides the perfect foundation for these stylish looks.
With these techniques, you’ll transform second-day hair from problem to advantage, embracing your natural oils while looking polished and put-together until your next wash day.
