It can definitely come from touching your hair frequently, touching your face then your hair, but it also comes from your scalp. I am particularly oily, and I try to use tea tree shampoos. They cut down on the "greasiness" but can also be drying to the scalp. For this reason, I try to wash every other day to give my skin a break

Also, keeping your hair out of your face so you're not tempted to touch it will help, and avoid putting conditioner on your scalp; this will only make it worse, just condition the ends (maybe say, below the ears).
I also use rosewater on my face to cut down the oil there. I actually had a post recently about oily scalp/skin, and was told that I might be making it worse by using these drying products (which is the cause for moderation).
