How to Manage Oily Hair

We’ve talked about how to handle limp hair, but did you know a primary cause for limp hair is oiliness? Natural oils are essential for the health of your hair, but excess oil can lead to greasy hair.

Oily hair can have a few different causes. Hormonal changes, diet and season changes can all impact the amount of oil your scalp produces. One of the most common causes of oily hair, however, is doing too much to it whether it’s applying too much heat or shampooing too often.

Shampooing too often will strip the scalp of its oils, leading too overproduction to compensate. If you are experiencing oily hair, try first scaling back on washes. Use lukewarm or cool water when you wash your hair. Hot water will stimulate oil production.

Using a clarifying shampoo will clear out product buildup, leaving you with squeaky clean hair. The right shampoo and conditioner will do wonders for your hair. Stick with products that are more mild and add moisture.

There are many reasons your hair may be oily, but a good way to find the root cause is to start with changing your hair care routine. If you have any questions or concerns about your hair, Lookin’ Good Salon is here to help!
