Re: Best remedies/solution for Oily hair

I also have an oily scalp… and want to ask the same question. I don’t use shampoo daily as it is harmful for the hair… Moreover, I cant use any other oil due natural oil of my scalp .. have tried so many shampoos but seriously nothing works for it…

Dry shampoo girls!!! my hair gets oily by the end of the day i shampoo my hair so you can imagine how oily it is (ugghh!!!) and i workout regularly as well…i cant keep shampooing my hair every other day. Dry shampoo not only removes all the greasiness and oiliness from the scalp but gives a lot of volume too ( double bonus ) . Now I soooo cannot live without my dry shampoo at all…now i only wash my hair like 2-3 times a week ( before i had to shampoo my hair like every other day esp on the days i work out or during summer)

When buying dry shampoos, do be careful as some of the brands leave a white residue on the scalp ( just like a regular white powder would) and that is not a very pretty sight!! The new ones coming out don’t have that white color. Batiste actually has dry shampoos for darker hair so that is another option as well.

Hope this helps:)

Look into a clarifying shampoo. Don't brush/comb hair too often...especially when it's not necessary. The brushing circulates your natural oils and while that can be a good thing, it can make hair oilier if it's the oily type to begin with.

Oh I looked into those but somehow couldn’t get myself to buy it. It feels gross…and since it is a shampoo too why not just use a regular one? I take bath twice a day so its not that I wanted to avoid shampooing my hair due to inconvenience but it was due to all the chemicals in your hair daily…so I don’t think dry shampoo is going to solve the issue. If anything it would actually be worse in terms of chemicals and all.

Yah brushing really gets them oiler quicker.
