Why does hair get oily? Is the hair getting oilier the more you wash? Is there any way to solve it? I'll introduce it to you today.
Why does my hair get oily?
Hair oil is mainly related to scalp oil secretion, and the reasons that affect scalp oil secretion are internal and external factors, internal factors are due to the stimulation of androgens, resulting in hyperfunction of sebaceous glands in the body, the skin surface of the oil secretion is more, so the hair will become greasy. There are four main external factors.
1. High working pressure
Work pressure increases, often stay up late and work overtime, endocrine function is disrupted, resulting in excessive secretion of oil on the surface of the skin, and hair will become oily.
2. Eating habits
Regular consumption of spicy, irritating, and greasy foods is likely to lead to hyperfunction of the sebaceous glands and excessive oil in the head.
3. Lack of water
The body is dehydrated for a long time, and the water and oil imbalance occurs, and the hair will produce oil
4. Wash your hair frequently
Some people wash their hair every day, always feel that it is not clean without washing their hair, but in fact, it is easy to wash off the oil of the scalp often, and the scalp will increase the secretion of oil to balance the scalp environment, so the cycle repeats, and the hair will be washed more and more oily. And frequent shampooing can easily irritate the scalp, causing the sebaceous glands to further divide and secrete more oil.
Therefore, the hair is very likely to be washed more and more oily, to try to control the frequency of shampooing, wash 2-3 times a week on it, but if the head is particularly oily, you can choose to wash your hair every day, after all, if you do not wash, too much oil secretion Pores will be blocked.
In addition to not washing your hair frequently, it is also important to choose the right shampoo. Can't listen to others say that this shampoo has a good oil control effect and follow the purchase, everyone scalp environment, hair quality is different, the choice of shampoo is also different, so according to the personal scalp environment and hair quality, to choose the right shampoo.
Different hair types choose different shampoos
1. Dry hair
Dry hair usually has less oil secretion, a large amount of stratum corneal protein is missing, resulting in dry hair, dull, frizzy, and bifurcated, so it is generally recommended to use a moisturizing shampoo to avoid using a shampoo that is too alkaline, so as to avoid excessive loss of keratin during the cleaning process. The moisturizing shampoo maximizes the moisture of hair, relieves dry hair and increases hair moisture and shine. And also use conditioners, conditioners as much as possible to choose products containing amino acids and small molecule nutrients.
2. Oily hair
Oily hair often secretes vigorously from the sebaceous glands, has more oil on the head, looks greasy, is prone to clogging pores, and even dandruff. Therefore, oily hair is recommended to use weak acidity and oil-controlled shampoo, because the pH value of normal people's hair is 4.5-5.5, and the pH of oily hair is far lower than the normal value, weak acidic shampoo can neutralize the pH value, improve the excessive secretion of oil, oil control shampoo can control oil secretion to a certain extent, thereby reducing the hair oil.
3. Damaged hair
People with damaged hair have a characteristic, that is, frequent perm dyeing, the scalp is often stimulated and damaged, hair follicles will have problems, hair will become yellow, dull, loose and difficult to comb, hair forks more. Therefore, it is recommended to use a shampoo with a repairing effect, and after cleansing, apply essential oils containing natural herbal ingredients to the hair to further moisturize and repair the hair.
Note: Do not use silicone oil shampoo, silicone oil shampoo is difficult to dissolve in water, long-term use may remain on the scalp, resulting in clogged pores, resulting in hair follicle necrosis and atrophy.
Therefore, it is necessary to choose a shampoo according to your own situation, and it is recommended not to use only one shampoo for a long time, change a shampoo every three months, and do not use too hot water when washing your hair, otherwise it is easy to damage the scalp.
