Which organic shampoo for oily hair should you choose?

Does your hair get greasy quickly, making you feel like you have to wash it very often? This overstimulates the sebaceous glands and pushes you to wash your hair even more frequently, a vicious circle many of us are familiar with. Don’t worry, there are effective and natural solutions to help control excess sebum. Here are the options available to you.

Why is my hair oily?

First of all, it’s essential to understand why your hair produces excess sebum. In fact, the presence of sebum is completely normal and healthy, it plays a role in the proper functioning of the epidermis and protects the skin from external aggressions and dehydration. However, its secretion can be disrupted by internal or external factors. The scalp then takes on an oily appearance and the hair looks dull, heavy, and flat, exactly what we all want to avoid!

Many factors can trigger or worsen excess sebum production. Among them are, for example:

prolonged exposure to the sun or a humid environment,
pollution and dust,
chemical hair treatments such as oxidation coloring or perms,
the use of overly aggressive cosmetic products,
excessive use of heated styling tools such as hair dryers or straighteners,
a rich and unbalanced diet,
hormonal imbalances (puberty, change in contraceptives, etc.).

As you can see, the causes of oily hair are numerous and varied. Even before looking into the composition of the cosmetics you use, make sure you follow three essential rules, otherwise, it will be very difficult to control your excess sebum production:

Protect your hair with a hat, cap, or scarf before any sun exposure: sunburns are very harmful to the scalp and disrupt the functioning of the sebaceous glands.
Balance your diet as much as possible and limit inflammatory ingredients such as gluten, lactose, saturated fats, and refined sugar. On the other hand, favor fruits and vegetables as well as whole grains, which provide all the necessary nutrients to the body and, by extension, to your skin and hair.
Maintain good hormonal balance. There’s only one way to do this: talk to your doctor.

An effective organic shampoo for oily hair: Harmony Clean

Now let’s take a look at your beauty routine. Choosing an organic shampoo for oily hair is, of course, essential, since your scalp tends to produce more sebum than normal. You therefore need a shampoo formulated with a cleansing base that is strong enough to remove all impurities without stripping the scalp.

To cleanse effectively without being aggressive, we created a unique organic shampoo for oily hair: Harmony Clean.

Its powerful cleansing agent is counterbalanced by linden essential oil, which softens and soothes the scalp. Lemon essential oil provides antiseptic and antibacterial properties, along with a fresh scent, naturally purifying the scalp and hair. Finally, cypress essential oil regulates the overproduction of sebum by stimulating the microcirculation of the scalp.

Combined together, these carefully selected ingredients create the best organic shampoo for oily hair you’ll ever try: it will keep your sebaceous glands under control while respecting the delicate balance of the scalp’s thin skin over the long term. A discovery that just might change your life!

Oil treatment combined with your organic shampoo for oily hair: the solution!

A treatment with vegetable and essential oils

To rebalance your scalp in a lasting way, you need a targeted treatment that acts directly on sebum production. That’s why we recommend a protocol to be done on dry hair, before shampooing. Why? Because when active ingredients are applied to “naked” hair, meaning dry hair, they can be fully absorbed, and the results are far more effective.

Here, we combine vegetable oils, in particular jojoba oil, renowned for having the pH closest to that of skin sebum and for its regulating properties, in our precious Repair treatment. We then add a few drops of Balans, a complex of essential oils specially designed to control excessive seborrhea, bring tone, and restore balance to the scalp.

By leaving this blend on your hair for about 20 minutes before your shampoo, once a week, you will effectively and lastingly combat your scalp issues, resulting in hair that feels lighter and healthier than ever.

Note: If your excess sebum is really significant, you can also try our Detox mask with tea tree essential oil and green clay. Green clay is known for absorbing impurities as it dries, making it a great ally for oily scalps and problematic skin.

A lightweight conditioner

If you suffer from oily hair, your first instinct is probably to choose an organic shampoo for oily hair. But did you know that your choice of conditioner is just as important?

Most detangling balms have a creamy, rich, comforting texture, perfect for dry hair. However, conventional conditioners are far too rich for oily hair: they add fatty acids when the hair is already producing too much oil.

With this in mind, we developed a truly original conditioner. Its spray texture, to be applied to wet hair right after shampooing for ease, is incredibly light and provides oily hair with only what it needs: it closes the cuticle after washing and makes detangling easier, all without weighing the hair down. Natural Color is an exclusive conditioner that meets all your expectations: it cares for your hair and maintains its shine without heaviness.

If you still prefer a creamy texture, you can opt for Daily Care. This conditioner is hydrating yet lightweight, ensuring the hair is not weighed down. But above all, don’t skip conditioner thinking it will improve oily hair, it won’t! You simply need to adapt it to your hair’s needs.
