Our products for oily hair feature purifying ingredients like tea tree oil and mint that effectively remove build-up and regulate sebum production without stripping your hair of essential moisture. This range of oily hair products includes clarifying shampoos, lightweight conditioners, and targeted scalp treatments that address the root cause of greasiness whilst leaving your hair feeling fresh and voluminous.
How often should I wash my hair if it's oily?
If you have oily hair, washing daily or every other day with appropriate products for oily hair is generally recommended to manage excess sebum production. However, over-washing can actually trigger your scalp to produce more oil as it tries to compensate for being stripped, so finding the right balance is key. Our hair care for oily hair is formulated to cleanse thoroughly without harsh stripping, allowing you to maintain freshness between washes. Some people find that as they use targeted oily hair products consistently, they can gradually extend the time between washes as their scalp's oil production normalises.
Will using conditioner make my oily hair even greasier?
A conditioner won't make your hair greasier if you choose the right formula and apply it correctly to the mid-lengths and ends only, avoiding the scalp and roots. Our products for oily hair include lightweight conditioners specifically designed for your hair type, providing essential moisture and detangling benefits without adding excess oil. The key is to select conditioners from our oily hair products range that are labelled as ‘lightweight,’ ‘volumising,’ or specifically for oily hair, and to rinse thoroughly after application.
Are there specific ingredients I should look for to control an oily scalp?
Tea tree oil is one of the most effective ingredients in products for oily hair, offering natural purifying properties that help regulate sebum production and maintain scalp health. Mint and peppermint provide a refreshing, cooling sensation whilst helping to balance oil levels and stimulate healthy circulation, while clay and charcoal are excellent for absorbing excess oil. Our hair care for oily hair harnesses these powerful, ethically sourced ingredients to deliver effective oil control whilst respecting your hair's natural needs and our planet's wellbeing.
Can I use hair treatments or masks if I have oily hair?
Yes, you can absolutely use hair treatments and masks, but make sure to choose formulas specifically designed for oily hair and apply them strategically. Focus treatments on the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, where damage and dryness typically occur, whilst avoiding the scalp and roots where oil concentrates. Look for lightweight, clarifying masks from our hair care for oily hair range that contain purifying ingredients like clay or tea tree. Weekly scalp treatments can actually help balance oil production by removing build-up and maintaining a healthy scalp environment, making them a valuable addition to your oily hair products routine.
What's the difference between having an oily scalp and oily hair?
An oily scalp refers to excess sebum production from the scalp's oil glands, whilst oily hair describes the appearance of greasiness along the hair shaft. Often, people have an oily scalp but normal or even dry hair and scalp, which is why targeted products for oily hair are so important. The oil produced by your scalp can travel down the hair shaft, making the entire head appear greasy, but the hair itself may not be naturally oily. Our oily hair products and entire hair care range address both concerns, purifying the scalp whilst caring for the lengths without adding unwanted weight or grease.
