If you have a greasy scalp you need this shampoo hack!

I come in from underneath as well as the sides. Honestly, smaller doses in more spots just always works better with our thick hair.

Also don’t put conditioner on the scalp. As soon as I stopped using it on my head and only on my ends, my hair stopped being so oily.

Recommendations for oily scalps: 1. Use shampoo with salicylic acid and leave it on the head for a few minutes before rinsing it off. 2. Do not use conditioner on your scalp. It’s only for your ends 3. Blowdry your hair so it has more volume. That makes it not get greasy as quickly. 4. Use dry shampoo or baby powder immediately after washing and drying your hair. It’s basically like powdering your face. It keeps the skin from getting oily too quickly.

Idk why I started doing this but instead of buying another shampoo just for “clarifying” I use my Micellar water on dry hair before washing and it detoxes my oily hair so we’ll!

I find a scalp brush really helps as well.

Yeah I like the idea of getting a full wash so you can go longer without washing your hair, because you aren’t supposed to wash too frequently/every day. I actually don’t wash my hair for up to 2 days and wash it when i notice it getting oily/greasy. Using conditioner only on your hair ends work too!

Your hair is not wet enough. This prevents your shampoo from doing what it is supposed to do

[SuzyKim]

Also, the TYPE of shampoo. A lot of us get the ones that smell good or supposedly add volume, etc. When all us 1 weekers need is a clarifying shampoo & mid to tip conditioning.👍

Getting in from underneath by washing your hair upside down is much easier than going through the trouble of sectioning wet hair

I've tried everything!! From a good sulphate free shampoo to neutrogena anti residue, I've done apple cider vinegar, I've tried rosemary NOTHING helps me, the only thing left is the aoramtic rosemary shampoo

I find diluting the shampoo works — so I get a plastic nozzle bottle - pit purified water and some shampoo, shake it and use it, I use the solution 2 times as needed . It gives me a better more thorough cleanse and suds and also saves shampoo as well . I never reuse the solution, either I finish the solution or I throw it out . B/c water mixed with shampoo in a bottle can cause bacteria build up .

I have the same issue will try this technique for sure.
Thanks for sharing ☺️

I do the same thing. I wash my hair 2 times a week, the first time I do 2 normal shampoos, the second time I use 1 normal shampoo and for the second I use the create acne cleansing gel with salicylic acid. I don't have very greasy hair, but I have very thin hair and the greasiness show up quickly, by doing this I have been able to wash my hair only two times per week instead of 3. It also exfoliates and cleans build up.

My daughter washing in sections and it’s still dull and greasy?! It’s only been like this for the last few months. I’m thinking it’s a lack of iron in her system?

[JmAnyWay]

I have always done this! It does rend to use more shampoo though, i use a non-eczema one that doesn't really seem to fluff up 😢 top, middle-back, and then a teensy bit on the sides and up underneath the bottom. Works like a charm!

[heartztoya]

What daily cleanser/ shampoo brand are you using? I have fine hair too😔 is that true it's better to use sulfate free shampoo? Thx

[dahotdogboi]

i never even thought of doing this. definitely trying it next wash day

[anemptyspace]

Just flip your head upside down once and voila: no need for sectioning wet, tangled hair.

(clarification: by flipping your head I mean just bend over and let your hair hang)

[ginarose]

Thanks! Great tip! Have any on thinning hair?

[TinSoldier]

That's a really good tip, thank you!
