How To Reduce Oily Roots

Do you find yourself battling oily roots frequently? Managing oily hair can be frustrating, annoying and honestly confusing, however we are here to help. With the right care routine and a few simple tips, you can say goodbye to greasy roots and welcome healthier, balanced hair. Here are three effective ways to tackle oily roots and care for your hair:

  1. Shampoo Twice with Double Cleansing: Double cleansing is a game changer for reducing excess oil. Begin by using a gentle, botanical-based shampoo. Apply it once to remove surface impurities and excess oil. Follow up with a second shampooing to deeply cleanse the scalp and hair, ensuring all residue and buildup are thoroughly washed away. This method helps to regulate oil production without stripping away essential natural oils from your scalp.

  2. Use a Scalp Exfoliant/Scrub: Introducing a scalp exfoliant or scrub into your weekly routine can work wonders. Regular exfoliation helps eliminate buildup, dead skin cells, and excess oil that can congest the hair follicles and contribute to an oily scalp. Use a gentle exfoliant designed for the scalp once a week to maintain a refreshed and clarified scalp. Use 1x per week for best results.

  3. Scalp Nourishment with Oils: Contrary to popular belief, oiling your scalp can actually help reduce excessive oiliness. By applying a natural oil to your scalp, it regulates your scalps natural oil production by sending a signal to your sebaceous glands that it doesn't need to produce as much oil. Using botanical oils like our cold-pressed Flourish Scalp Oil & Soothe Scalp Oil can rebalance the scalp's natural oil production. These treatments nourish the scalp, regulating oil secretion and promoting healthier hair growth. Use 1-3x per week for best results.

In addition, our Revitalising Scalp Massager is an amazing tool in addressing oiliness. This massager gently exfoliates the scalp, eliminating buildup and enhancing circulation.
