Oily hair can be difficult to manage. A lot of people who deal with it wash their hair in the morning, only to find it being greasy in the evening. While it can be a source of annoyance, there’s nothing to worry about if your hair is oily. Oily scalps are just as common as dry and normal scalps, and—luckily—there are a number of natural ways to reduce your hair’s tendency to get greasy.
If you don’t want to invest in products that will eventually, and inevitably, do more harm than good, here are some ways you can naturally treat oily hair:
Egg mask
This may sound like a stinky solution, but sometimes you have to swallow a bitter pill to get what you want. In this case, you’ll have to brave an egg mask to get healthy, shiny, oil-free hair you want.
It’s important to realize that a lack of moisture in your hair may be the reason why your scalp is overcompensating by producing extra oil. A nutrient-packed egg yolk mask can provide your hair and scalp with the enrichment it needs. Mix yogurt or a teaspoon of lemon juice to whisked egg yolks, leaving it on for less than an hour before washing it with a mild shampoo.
Coconut oil
Another means of providing nourishment to your strands is to massage coconut oil onto your scalp before you take a shower. This lightweight oil provides the roots of your hair with the moisture they need to shine and look healthy.
Lemon juice
Lemon juice, owing to its acidic properties, can help reduce the build-up of dirt, product, and oils that may be clogging up your scalp. Since lemon juice is acidic and may end up drying out your roots, don’t forget to dilute it with water before you apply it.
Aloe Vera gel
This miracle ingredient can do wonders for your skin and hair. By balancing the PH levels in your hair, while simultaneously providing it with the necessary nutrients, aloe vera is a great natural remedy for oily hair. Applying the gel to your hair 30 minutes before you shower and then washing it with cool water will leave your scalp feeling refreshed, cool, and make your hair healthy, bouncy, and oil-free.
Use the right products
Just because you have oily hair doesn’t mean you need to swear off any products. Using the right kind of products can give your hair the same shine, growth, and nourishment as natural ingredients will.
