The experts: 4 reasons why your hair is greasy

Wash very often.

Shampooing your hair too often can cause it to become naturally greasier. "The reason this happens is that you're overstimulating the sebaceous gland, which means you're producing more oil than you should," says Antonio Juarez, a hair stylist at Fabio Scalia Salons in New York City. This stimulation is caused by the massage technique you use when lathering your shampoo.

"What you can do instead is shampoo twice a week, when your hair gets greasy," says Juarez.

You don't wash them properly.

Larja e flokëve me shampo siç duhet është më e përfshirë nga sa mund të mendoni. Së pari, do të duhet të zbatoni praktikën e një pastrimi të dyfishtë. "Larja e parë duhet të fokusohet në heqjen e grumbullimit të produktit," thotë Juarez. "Përdorni mollëzat e gishtave dhe punoni në të gjithë lëkurën e kokës." Më pas lajini sërish me shampo. Ky pastrim duhet të jetë i plotë, duke siguruar që fijet tuaja të pastrohen nga rrënja në majë. “Shpëlajeni plotësisht shampon, aplikoni kondicioner nga mesi i gjatësisë deri te majat dhe shpëlajeni të gjitha”, thotë Juarez.

The temperature of your shower can also affect the oiliness or lack of it in your hair. "It's important not to use very hot water when washing your hair, as it will strip the natural oils from the cuticle and the scalp will immediately replace it, leaving your hair greasy," says Gökhan Vayni, hair specialist at Summer Clinic.

Additionally, rinsing with cold water can also add shine.

Touching the hair constantly.

The scalp produces oil naturally, and so do the fingertips. "This contributes to an oily scalp that is constantly touching the hair throughout the day," says Juarez.

This is because the oil on your fingers transfers to your hair, leaving it greasier than it was before./ CNA.al
