Does anyone have any suggestions for good oily hair shampoo? For that matter, can someone tell me what it may say on the bottle in Korean?

Go to LUSH. Get a big bottle of I LOVE JUICY. Oily hair - GONE!
Soft, shiny hair - you'll have it! Don't use conditioner after you shampoo.

LUSH stuff is a bit expensive, more expensive in Korea than in any other country I've bought it in, but well worth the price. You only need a teeny tiny bit compared to how much you usually use, and I find it lasts twice as long as any other shampoo, so in the end, the price isn't as bad as the initial shock.

In Korea, maybe W20,000????

There's a LUSH in Apgujeong, and one in Myeong-dong.

The Body Shop has shamp's for different hair types as well.
Also, AVEDA, in some department stores has some good stuff...but it's very pricey.

How does various shampoos really make a difference?

I use just about any kind of shampoo regardless of whats its intended for.. but hair just looks the same all the time.

Whats up with that?

Oh, and hi ladies.. this seems to be THE main female thread out there at the time Wink

Is there anything that's gentle on hair?

Gotta keep those that I've got left!

Don't like baby shampoo. They say it doesn't hurt your eyes, but I tried pouring over my eyeball and it did sting a little.

Pantene also has an oily hair line that works pretty well, and it is not too expensive. However if anyone has found fragrance free shampoo and conditioner, I would love you if you can tell me of it. I feel like an idiot going around sniffing bottles....especially since I usually just settle on one that seems least odor-full.

Ohh and Tigerbear, shampoo matters. I would wager you have "normal ranged hair" if it doesn't affect you. I have really dry hair, most shampoos are too harsh and will strip my hair of what little oil it produces--leaving my head a frizzy mess. So I use a mild shampoo for dry or treated hair and wash it about every other day. In really dry places I sometimes go longer. And I'm not dirty I shower daily, well except for that one month....
