9 Tips to Help You Get Rid of Greasy Hair

Very few of us have the time to wash our hair on a daily basis, but sometimes, we just have no choice, as, by day two, our hair starts looking flat and oily at the roots. If you are one of those people whose hair gets oily very quickly and you end up losing volume and a clean appearance to your hair soon after washing it, the tips and tricks we’re about to share with you will come in handy. We will show you how to train your hair to produce less oil and give several handy tips and DIY tricks that can help reduce the appearance of greasy hair, so that you not only save time by washing your hair less often but also save money by having to use fewer hair-care products.

1. Add salt to your shampoo

If your scalp produces too much oil, you can balance it out by simply adding salt into your shampoo. To use this trick, add 2 tablespoons of salt into a 16 oz (450 ml) bottle of shampoo, shake the bottle, wait for the salt to dissolve, and then use it as usual. You will see the effects of the salt after a few washes: your hair will not get oily as fast and you will also have more volume in your hair. We prefer using Epsom salt, as it's higher in minerals, such as magnesium, and can nourish and promote the health of your scalp while making it less oily, but any salt will do the job just as well. 
 
2. Use dry shampoo

Dry shampoos are powders that come either in aerosol cans or regular bottles that you spray directly onto the roots of the hair to reduce the appearance of oily hair without having to wash the hair. These products will help you extend the time between washes for a day or two, and they are widely available both online and in drugstores or beauty stores. To use the dry shampoo, simply apply the product directly onto the areas of your hair that are the oiliest. If you have long hair, you might have to divide the hair into sections before applying the product. Let the dry shampoo sit in the hair for a few minutes to allow it to soak up the oils, and then brush through your hair to avoid any white residue being left behind.

3. Dry shampoo alternatives 
If you don't feel like investing in dry shampoo, or you simply nee a quick fix in a pinch but have no dry shampoo on hand, you can also use a small amount of baby powder, cornstarch, or cacao powder (for dark hair) as a replacement for dry shampoo. These products are typically not as effective as dry shampoo because they're not designed to be used on hair, but they do work. Products that contain a lot of alcohol, such as hand sanitizer, alcohol wipes, or even perfume can also be used to soak up the excess oils from your scalp. To use these, rub a small amount of the product onto the oily areas of the scalp, and after a few minutes - the product will evaporate and absorb the oils. 
 
4. Wash your hair less often  
The natural oils your scalp produces are there for a reason. Much like the sebaceous glands on the rest of the skin, the oil glands in your scalp produce sebum to moisturize and protect your scalp from damage. Shampoos strip the hair and scalp of these natural oils. The more you wash your hair, the more oils your scalp is forced to produce. Many people find that by washing their hair less often, they actually experience less oil production in their hair. So, if you wash your hair every day, try doing so every other day, and this change alone may help train your scalp to become less oily with time.
