Why is my hair greasy?

Question

I don't eat lots of greasy food. I am a teen, so I know hormones can cause greasy hair. About three inches from the top of my head, down, it's dryish, fluffy, naturally wavy hair. I have a dry scalp, so I use a special shampoo for that, but those top three inches of hair are gross looking (Greasy) about halfway through the day. I don't use conditioner anymore, I don't over spread the shampoo on top. I'm tired of having gross hair halfway through the day because the rest of my hair looks really nice :( I have also tried not shampooing it every day. That made it worse.

Update:

@Peyton

I shower everyday. I guess I should say I don't use a /separate/ conditioner, because I use head and shoulders..... I work too hard to not shower daily lol

I used to wash my hair everyday cause my hair was greasy but people told me not to cause that strips your natural oils so I stopped and it made it worse! Then they told me the first week or two, your hair will still be greasy but once you get into the cycle of washing it every other day/ every two days, it will stop being so greasy and so I waited it out and my hair really hasn't been as greasy!! So try not washing it everyday again and wait at least a week or two and it should start looking so much better!!

Shower more often. When you shower make sure your hair is wet before putting the shampoo in it and once you do make sure it gets deep to your scalp. Use conditioner as well that keeps hair from being greasy. I use head and shoulders which prevents dry scalp and is a conditioner and shampoo in one.
