What Causes Oily Hair?

Oily hair is a symptom of excess sebum on the scalp. This can be due to everything from hair type to genetic or health factors. While you can’t completely cure an oily scalp, you can take the steps to cut down on oily hair.

An Ideal Hair Care Routine for Oily Hair

Start with the SCALP

Like all hair care, it is best to start with your scalp. The function of your scalp is what will impact the rest of your style. So when you’re dealing with an excess of sebum, begin with a targeted scalp regimen. 

All though we love to create a well-rounded spa day with the entire range, SCALP.SPA has a SCRUB, WASH, TREATMENT, and SERUM to choose from that can be tailored to your exact needs.

Detox When Needed

If the cause of your oily hair is due to product or debris buildup, consider putting your strands through a detox with MAXI.WASH for a deep clean, BALANCING.WASH for a gentle daily solution or STIMULATE-ME.WASH to awaken the scalp and strands.

Extend Time Between Washes

Despite what you might think, washing away the oil isn’t always the best course of action for your scalp or style. Instead of constantly cleansing, work dry shampoo into your hair care routine to cut down on excess oil and save you time when styling with FRESH.HAIR.

Hydrate Your Ends

With so much attention paid to your scalp, your ends can begin to suffer. For this reason, whenever creating a routine for oily hair, you should always focus on hydrating your style as well. You can do this by adding a hydrating conditioner like HYDRATE-ME.RINSE, regularly applying YOUNG.AGAIN to your ends or by touching up your style with YOUNG.AGAIN DRY CONDITIONER for a weightless touch of rejuvenation.
