- Rinse with lukewarm water. Very cold water won't leave it deeply clean, and hot water tends to open the cuticles, which can damage the hair afterward. So, neither cold nor hot. You know, extremes are never good. Lukewarm water adds more shine to the hair and helps control sebum levels, so your hair will end up getting dirty less often.
- Rinse it very well
- Wash it in the morning: You'll achieve a greater effect than at night because the sebaceous glands are more active during nighttime hours. Has it ever happened to you that you woke up without understanding why your hair was so dirty right after waking up?
- Don't touch it. Touching our hair usually relaxes us, but it also makes it very dirty. I don't know about your mother, but mine always told me "don't touch your hair so much." Well, it's a mother's maxim that we should follow. Touching your hair a lot promotes sebum secretion.
- Leave your hair alone. Brush your hair only when you need to. If you're someone who can't stop playing with your hair, we advise you to tie it up nicely to avoid touching and styling it all the time. If you brush it too much, what you achieve is spreading the oil throughout your hair.
- Brush from mid-lengths to ends: We advise you that when you brush your hair, do so from the mid-lengths to the ends, as most oily hair has more oil at the roots than at the lower part of the mane. If you activate circulation from the root, you are also promoting more oil to appear throughout the hair.
- Clean and disinfect your straighteners: As we indicated earlier with hot water, as a general rule, heat promotes sebum production. Avoid using hair straighteners, but if you need to use them, disinfect them with alcohol to prevent any dirt and accumulated oil.
- Also avoid using a blow dryer with hot air
- Avoid foods high in fat: For oily hair, consuming sugary foods, refined flours, and cured meats should be prohibited. These foods are rich in fats, fats that will also affect your hair.
- No conditioners or serums that make your hair greasy
- Get rid of stress: Stress causes increased scalp oil production. Eliminate it from your life forever!
