Controlling Oily Hair


With the increased warmth of summertime, your skin may be producing excess oil, causing your lovely locks to be a bit limp.

Reducing the amount of fat in your diet will help to decrease oil production.

Here are a few other natural remedies to restore some body zing to your hair:
  • Apply a strip of gauze or a sheet of 1-ply bathroom tissue to the base of your hairbrush, working it between the bristles, to absorb excess oil from the brush.
  • Whisk an egg in a bowl and apply to your dry hair and scalp before shampooing. Allow the egg to dry before rinsing.
  • Dissolve 1 Tbsp. of sea salt in a cup of milk and apply to your scalp. Leave on for up to 30 minutes, then shampoo out.
  • After shampooing, rinse 1 Tbsp. lemon juice or apple cider vinegar through your hair. This will also increase the shine!
  • After shampooing but before styling, apply witch hazel to your hairline with a cotton swab.
