Understanding an Oily Scalp
An oily scalp happens when your sebaceous glands produce too much sebum, leading to greasy hair, buildup, and even itching. This can make your hair look flat, limp, and harder to manage.
Excess oil can also trap dirt and dead skin cells, clogging hair follicles and potentially leading to hair thinning. It’s a common issue—but one that can be managed with the right care.
What Triggers An Oily Scalp
An oily scalp can be caused by hormonal changes, stress, or even overwashing your hair. When your scalp is stripped of natural oils, it can go into overdrive and produce even more.
Other factors like diet, genetics, and product buildup can also play a role. Understanding these triggers is key to finding the right treatment and restoring balance to your scalp.
How It Affects the Hair
Excess oil can clog hair follicles, leading to scalp irritation, itching, and even dandruff. Over time, this buildup may weaken the hair roots and contribute to hair thinning.
Oily scalp can also make your hair look limp, greasy, and harder to manage. Left untreated, it can disrupt a healthy scalp environment and affect overall hair health.
