How to choose your oily hair shampoo?

Oily hair shampoos are designed to help regulate the production of sebum, the natural oily substance produced by the scalp's sebaceous glands. These shampoos often contain astringent ingredients such as menthol, peppermint or rosemary water to help reduce excess sebum. They may also contain gentle cleansing ingredients such as sodium sulfate, which helps remove impurities and excess sebum without over-drying the scalp. It's important to note that regular use of oily hair shampoos can help restore the scalp's natural oil balance, keeping hair clean and healthy. It's important to choose a shampoo that suits your hair and scalp type for best results.

There are many different types of hair: color, thickness, shape, implantation, nature. All these criteria can differ from one person to another, and that's what makes each hair type unique.

Oily hair is often accompanied by dandruff and itching. Hair feels heavy, flat and can become shiny in a matter of hours. Don't panic, we've got you covered.

It's important to choose an oily hair shampoo that contains gentle cleansing ingredients such as peppermint or green tea. It's also a good idea to look for washing products that contain astringent ingredients such as vitamin C or salicylic acid to help reduce excess sebum. It's also advisable to use shampoos free of oils and silicones, which can aggravate oily hair. It's best to choose a shampoo based on plants and natural products.

How do I wash greasy hair?

To wash oily hair, we recommend using an oily hair shampoo and massaging the scalp thoroughly to eliminate sebum. It's also important to rinse hair thoroughly to remove any excess product. It may also be helpful to reduce the frequency of washing, as too many washes can stimulate sebum production. You can ask our health professionals and hair care advisors for personalized advice based on your hair type and scalp.

Caring for oily hair

To care for oily hair, we recommend using a dedicated shampoo to regulate the amount of sebum and purify your scalp. Don't rinse with water that's too hot, and don't use a hair dryer, as heat stimulates the sebaceous glands that produce sebum.

Finally, avoid covering your hair (hats, caps...) and let it breathe. In general, try not to touch your hair too much or brush it too frequently, as rubbing the scalp stimulates the sebaceous glands and accelerates sebum production.

If your hair gets greasy very quickly and you have to wash it every day, try alternating with a dry shampoo every other day.

Origin of greasy hair

Greasy hair is characterized by an excessive presence of sebum on the hair fiber. This substance, naturally created in the scalp, initially nourishes the hair and protects it from external aggression by covering the fiber with a protective film.

When this sebum is in excess, hair feels greasy, loses volume and ends up flat. If the fiber is also damaged, the sebum no longer flows properly throughout the hair, accumulating at the roots and altering thebalance of the scalp, leading to the appearance of dandruff.

There are many reasons for this imbalance: climate, unbalanced diet, stress, hormonal imbalance, unsuitable hair care products.
