Maybe his hair is greasy no matter what he tries, similar to how 
Harry's hair sticks out every which way at all times?  Then no hair 
product, magical or muggle could help him.  Condemned to a live of 
nasty greasy hair.  Ugh.  For someone who is ridiculously vain about 
her nice, soft, pretty hair, it's hard to imagine anything worse.

care of himself.  Come on, he's a potions master!)
