Surely having greasy hair is a very annoying, the effect lasts a very short hair and clean the hair becomes heavy and without volume within hours.

What is the cause of oily hair?

The cause of oily hair is excessive production of sebum, the greasy hair sometimes joins “seborrheic dermatitis” which apparently has dandruff-like scales, but particularly affects the line of hairline. The problem is not just a cosmetic nature, because when the gland is too active swells up to squeeze the bulb causing the hair loss.

The reasons may be related to several factors:

• internal causes: poor nutrition
• external causes: the use of detergents and overly aggressive degreasers.

General Tips:

1. Wash hair at least 2 times a week.
2. Use a shampoo that has astringent properties and may regulate the secretion of sebum.
3. Wash hair with shampoo based nettle or clay, tar or sulfur;
(The most recent studies suggest a greater use of tar-based products because sulfur tends to excessively dry scalp).
4. Remember that if your hair is grease the scalp is sensitive and delicate, it must be treated with products that do not attack.

Natural Remedies:

A grandmother’s advice: Do wraps walnut and chestnut, because these plants contain astringent substances.

Shampoo Rosemary:

- 20 ml of shampoo neutral
- 1 egg yolk
- 7 drops of rosemary essential oil
Whisk all the elements until a creamy paste. This type of shampoo loses its properties quickly, then be prepared every time you use it.

Tonic ivy and birch (ideal for oily hair, especially if dark):

- 10 teaspoons of dried leaves of birch
- 3 teaspoons of dried leaves of ivy
- 1 cup of denatured alcohol
- 2 cups water

Mix boiling water with ivy leaves and birch. After cooling for about 10 minutes, filtering, adding alcohol and mixing. Apply to wet hair with a gentle massage, without rinsing.
