What to do against greasy hair?

 

 

Feel like your hair is getting greasy too fast? That no matter how frequently you wash them, they constantly feel heavy, sticky, oily? The situation is certainly not pleasant, we understand you. But there are solutions, and in this article, we will detail our solutions against greasy hair.

 

 

 

How do I know if I have greasy hair?

 

First of all, it is necessary to understand the nature of his hair. The nature of a hair is linked to the amount of sebum secreted by the sebaceous glands at the root of the hair. This sebum provides hydration and natural protection for the hair against pollution, drying out, external aggressions... In general, there are three different natures of hair:

• Normal hair looks soft and shiny, even several days after shampooing. This hair combs and detangles easily.
• Dry hair lacks sebum, so it is dehydrated, brittle and easily breakable. They tangle very quickly. This lack of sebum often leads to itching and the appearance of dandruff.
• Greasy hair, on the other hand, has an excess of sebum which suffocates the roots. This hair quickly greases again after shampooing. They feel heavy, shiny and sticky. This excess sebum also increases the risk of dandruff.

 

 

 

Greasy hair: what are the causes?

 

Many factors can explain greasy hair. Internal causes: intense stress, nervousness, great fatigue, hormonal imbalance, or even a diet too rich in fats and sugars can cause excessive sebum production.

Touching your hair and scalp too often can be perceived as an external aggression, and therefore lead to an overproduction of sebum in response.

The use of unsuitable products, such as overly aggressive shampoos or styling products containing paraffin, the application of chemical coloring or bleaching, too frequent blow-drying also explain greasy hair.

Change your habits to prevent greasy hair

 

The appearance of greasy hair can also be due to lifestyle habits. Slightly modifying these behaviors with small daily gestures can thus help prevent greasy hair and maintain dream hair every day!

 

1/ Space out the shampoos: when you have greasy hair, you tend to want to wash it more often to avoid the unpleasant feeling of dirty hair. However, washing them too often can lead, on the contrary, to an overproduction of sebum as a protective reaction. We even risk ending up with greasy roots and dry ends from washing them so often. The only solution: get out of this vicious circle and restrict yourself to 1-2 shampoos per week to regulate sebum production.

 

2/ Massage the scalp before shampooing to stimulate blood circulation and restore balance at the hair roots.

 

3/ Finish the shampoo with cold water to tone the hair and prevent overproduction of sebum.

 

4/ Avoid using the hair dryer or the iron at too high a temperature, which will attack the hair.

 

5/ Avoid running your hand through the hair or the root too often, especially with dirty hands, perceived as an external aggression by the hair.

 

6/ Adopt a balanced diet, both for your hair and for your health!
