Quick Remedy for Oily Hair
A problem associated frequently with hormones
and teenage years, oily hair is not unusual
in women around the time their menstrual
periods come in as well as individuals who live in
climates that are humid. Compared to hair that is
thicker, thin hair suffers from oiliness more
since each follicle’s glands produce oil and are not
as well absorbed by hair that is thick. For this
reason, hair that is finer needs to be shampooed
more frequently than hair that is coarse.
To prevent oil build up, apply conditioner to the
middle and ends of your hair, staying away from
the roots in order to prevent the build-up of oil.
As much as you can, minimize hair brushing.
The reason for this is that hair that gets brushed a
lot tends to stimulate the production of sebum. Work with the ends when you style your hair and
keep away from the root area so that your hair maintains a fresh appearance.
Generously spray dry shampoo on the roots of your hair and on most of your head. Let this sit for
five minutes and brush off any remaining shampoo. The way that this type of shampoo works is
that it refreshes your hair, taking away the appearance of being too oily.
Find hair shampoos and conditioners that are designed to combat hair that is oily. These products
are manufactured with ingredients designed to lessen the oily tendencies of hair.
Hair follicles that are clogged and accumulating dead cells will be removed by a mixture of
one cup of water with one tablespoon of vinegar. Follicles that are clogged cause hair to seem
greasier and might cause break outs to occur in the scalp. Vinegar clarifies the scalp and rinses
away oil that has been built up.
You can also try the witch hazel and
mouthwash solution. Mix equal parts of witch
hazel and mouthwash and use a cotton ball to
apply this solution to your scalp. This can be
done every day for overly oily hair. Remember
that you need to apply this just to your scalp
and not to your entire hair length.
If oily hair persists, one technique is to use 2
lemons squeezed into 1 quart of water. Rinse
scalp and hair with the lemon and water and
don’t wash this off. High in vitamin C, lemons
are also a natural antiseptic and the scalp’s
moisture balance is restored by the lemon
juice’s citric acid.
