lemon juice etc are suggested, because they are very effective in
removing the excess deposit of oil from the hair. If you are looking

amount baby powder into your tresses. Leave it for about five
minutes and then comb your hair with a comb. The baby powder will
absorb oil from your hair, making it less greasy.
- Dilute 100 ml of alcohol in two cups of water. Rinse your
hair with the solution. This will remove the excess build up of
oil in your hair.
- Brew tea leaves in a cup of water. Add the juice of half a
lemon to the tea. After cooling the decoction, apply it on your
hair. Leave it for about 20 minutes and then wash your hair
thoroughly with water.
- Mix 3 tablespoons of vinegar with two teaspoons of lemon
juice and one cup of warm water. Massage the mixture in your
scalp. Leave it for half an hour and then rinse your hair with
water.
- Essential oils can help a great deal in reducing the
production of oil in your hair. Combine 8 drops of rose geranium
essential oil with the same quantity of lemongrass essential
oil. Pour the mixture into an 8-ounce bottle of your regular
shampoo.
- You can personalize your regular shampoo and make it more
suitable for your oily hair. For the purpose, mix ½ teaspoon of
aloe vera gel and one tablespoon of lemon juice with 4
tablespoons of the shampoo. Blend the ingredients well. Wash
your hair with the shampoo.
- Regular shampooing is good for your oily hair, but you
should not overdo it. This is because the body tends to produce
more oil, when the hair is less greasy, after shampooing.
- Avoid using styling products such as hair gel, hair spray,
because they moisten the hair, making it oilier.
- Diet plays an important role in the secretion of oil by the
sebaceous glands. Therefore, try to reduce the quantity of oil
in your food. It is better to avoid deep-fried food. Replace the
fried and fatty food with fresh fruits and vegetables.
- Conditioner is not required for oily hair, because the
product tends to make the hair greasy. However, if you still
want to use a conditioner, make sure that you apply it only to
the ends of your tresses, rather than the roots.
