If your hair constantly has a greasy look and feel, you may simply have a scalp that produces a lot of oil. Instead of throwing a tantrum and being jealous of all your friends who have soft and shiny hair, realize that you can take control over your oily locks situation. Have no fear -- a clarifying shampoo can do wonders for managing an annoying oily scalp situation.
Scalp Soothing
Manage your overactive and greasy scalp by opting for a scalp soothing, cooling shampoo that will soak up any excess oil around your roots. Energize and revitalize your hair by thoroughly washing it with a shampoo that will give it a refreshing tingling sensation using a combination of ingredients like calming mallow root and peppermint leaf extracts, oil-zapping glycerin and nourishing green tea oils.
Volumizing
Apart from making your hair look greasy and less-than-fresh, another downside of oily roots if making your locks look flat and lifeless. Defend your tresses against this possibility by washing them with a volumizing shampoo made for oily hair. As you clarify your scalp, work on rejuvenating it, too! Restore the life and energy to your head by using a product that includes volume-boosting wheat proteins, nourishing avocado oil and scalp energizing peppermint oil. Not only will your hair look and feel cleaner, but you'll feel awake and ready to take on the world, too.
Hydrating
Don't think for a minute that just because your hair is greasy, it somehow doesn't need moisture. Just like combination skin, combination hair can happen too! If your locks are greasy at the roots and become drier and thirstier toward the ends, look for a creamy hydrating shampoo that will mildly eliminate excess oils and product buildup while simultaneously dousing your locks with gentle, aloe-based moisture.
Shine
If your oily roots have caused your hair to take on a dull and lackluster appearance, use a shine-enhancing clarifying shampoo that will not only deeply cleanse your tresses, but also have them looking glossy and healthy again. What could be better than that? Try a daily use, panthenol-infused shampoo that will make product residue seem like ancient history as it extracts excess oils and nourishes hair with shine and body.
