Should I Shampoo Everyday to Get Rid of Oily Hair?
Professional Hair Care Tips - If you shampoo everyday, you will strip all of the natural oils out of your hair, especially since it's longer. Sounds to me though like you've just got an over production of sebum going on. When I was your age, I had the same problem. I believe it's your hormones. They make dry shampoos You can use shampoo's and other products for oily hair This problem should diminish as you get older, so don't despair. Most people's hormone's calm down when they're in their twenties. Realistically, people with long hair should only wash their hair every 3 days. Oils in your scalp help keep the cuticles of your hair smooth and moisturized. This is especially important in both the winter months when the elements get so dry and harsh, and the summer months when the sun is much more intense. People with short hair, (shoulder length or shorter), can wash their hair as often as they like. If you've got to shampoo everyday to keep the greasies away, I suggest you invest in a good conditioner for your hair to promote shine and to prevent breakage. Keep in mind that conditioners are only meant to be applied to the mid hair shaft and the ends of your hair. Since you've already got oily hair, don't apply conditioner near your scalp! Thats double trouble! Also, try to keep your hands off of your hair during the day. You transfer oils from your hands to your hair when you touch it a lot. This should help cut down on your oily hair. Have you ever had a bad salon experience? (Post your own or read others' contributions...) Sign-Up for FREE at TheHairStyler.com!

which help to take out some of the oils where you apply it. It worked OK for me back when I was a teenager, but after a day, my hair got kinda yucky feeling where I'd applied it, so I had to wash it anyway. 
too, but then you are stripping the oils from the rest of your hair. If you do shampoo everyday, only apply these types of shampoos to your roots where your sebum is formed, then use a conditioning shampoo on the rest of your hair.
