All hail the ballerina bun. It's a chic timeless style that solves many bad hair days including times we haven't washed. The hairstyle works well with greasy hair because people know hair is supposed to be slick. The best part is, they'll assume the whole head is hair gel and only you will know the greasy patches. We won't give the game away.

Supersized Bow
Putting a headband on top of greasy roots isn't cheating. It's clever because it creates a flirty finish and distracts from unwashed hair. Make a statement with hair swept into a low bun and an oversized bow headband. Those in a pinch can create the look using a scarf.

Triple Braid
People will be looking at your roots with this triple braid ponytail, but they won't be judging the greasiness level. They'll be admiring the cool effect of multiple braids on the crown. The plaits add texture and fullness to the top of the head which gets rid of the telltale slicked-to-the-scalp look of greasy hair.

Pinned Back
For most people, greasiness is most evident in part lines and front layers. One effective way to deal with oily hair is to get rid of the part by sweeping the front section back from temple to temple. Some might be tempted to add volume but it's not always necessary. A gelled half updo with straight lengths has a sharp, non-greasy finish.

Boxer Braids
As the experts stated, boxer braids is a brilliant greasy hair hairstyle. Part hair down the center and plait each side into tight braids. Add a bit of hair gel as you go for a sleek (read: not greasy) finish.
