How Can I Make My Hair Less Oily ?

Okay, I have read articles, tips, and tricks on how to make your hair less oily. I have even asked my dermatologist. Everything I seem to be doing is not helping my case at all. I am a 16 year old white girl, naturally straight hair also. Yes, I am aware the straighter your hair is the oilier it is. People say when I get older it will go away but it just keeps getting worse. I have used dry shampoos and hardly use conditioner, i dnt use hairsprays n stuff like that because I don't need to. I just need some help or advice on how to make the oiliness go down ! THANKS !! (:

Update:

I wash my hair everyday, sometimes twice a day, i even make sure i rinse out all of the shampoo !

    You can actually increase the amount of shampoo you use. Shampoo contains chemicals that dry out natural oils. Of course you could take showers everyday as well. Also avoid putting too many products on your hair. A really cool trick I learned that saved me from oily hair was baby powder. I know it sounds really weird but it works wonderfully. Just apply a little bit to your hair and work your way down from the roots to the ends. hope this helps:)
