Oily hair

A common hair problem in men and women is oily hair. This can be an inherited problem, but it can also have other causes. Prevent oily hair and give your hair and scalp the care they need. At Salontotal.co.uk shop the finest products, such as a shampoo against oily hair and various other hair products.

The cause of oily hair

Oily hair is caused by having an oily scalp. The sebaceous glands on the scalp produce sebum to keep the skin healthy and supple. With an oily scalp, too much sebum is produced, making hair oily faster. This can be due to hormonal fluctuations, stress, unhealthy diet, puberty, pregnancy, temperature, use of wrong hair products, washing and brushing hair too often.

What can you do about oily hair?

We would like to give you some tips to reduce oily hair:

1. Don't wash your hair too often! Washing your hair too often removes the natural fats, which causes the scalp to produce more sebum and results in oily hair. Wash it 2 to 3 times a week and use dry shampoo in between if necessary.
2. Use conditioner only on the lengths and ends of your hair. This is what needs the most care.
3. Use hair products suitable for oily scalp.
4. Wash hair with a lower water temperature.
5. Do not brush the hair too often and sit with your hands in the hair as little as possible.
