Not only does healthy hair look great, it makes you feel fabulous too! However, if you’ve got an oily scalp, you know you’ve got to spend some extra time grooming it. The accumulation of sebum on the scalp can clog hair follicles, weigh down the hair and make the scalp itchy. If you’ve been one of those who’s perpetually concerned about how to deal with an oily scalp, we’re here to help…
 

 

Head massage

A good head massage can do wonders for your scalp. When your scalp is massaged, it enhances the blood circulation to the head and promotes new hair growth. It also revitalizes the hair bed while ridding it of dead cells and old follicles. And that’s not all; this simple treatment also nourishes the hair shaft and strengthens the roots too.

 
 
 

Use the right shampoo and conditioner

With an oily scalp, it’s essential to use the right shampoo and conditioner. We recommend the Sunsilk Natural Recharge Strong and Abundant Shampoo and Conditioner with ginseng plant extracts that cleanses the scalp and replenishes hair right from the root. With regular usage you can expect hair that is five times thicker.

 
 
 

Right from the root

While hair brushing often consists of roughly running a comb through your tresses, an oily scalp requires you to do things a little differently. Start from your scalp and run a firm bristled brush through the strands of your hair right till the tip. Scalp brushing will remove any fallen hair strands and loosen any grime which is settled at the root, helping to clarify the scalp.

 
 
 

Frequent washing

An important pair of oily hair care is how often you wash your hair. Whenever you’re doing it, make sure to focus the wash on your scalp and not just the hair. Lather your shampoo and gently scrub your scalp using your fingertips. This will help to remove any accumulated oil and dirt on your scalp while leaving the rest of your hair full of life.
