For many women, taking off their helmet means revealing flat, lifeless hair.
As a result, hair becomes limp and sticks to the scalp, undoing all the hard work of styling it in the morning. During the festive season, when women tend to use more hair products and hairspray to create intricate styles, the problem is exacerbated, creating an environment conducive to hair attracting dust and becoming sticky. If you don’t want to find yourself in an embarrassing situation, prepare some quick fixes to combat oily hair.
Oily hair can be aesthetically unpleasing as it exposes the scalp and affects the style.
Use baby powder
Similar to dry shampoo, baby powder absorbs excess oil, leaving hair feeling fresh and comfortable. It has a pleasant scent and is less “chemical” than dry shampoo. Before the advent of dry shampoo, most women carried baby powder in their purses to deal with oily hair. It’s simple to use: sprinkle the powder on your hair and then brush it through until your hair is smooth again.
Baby powder is not only a lifesaver for the skin but can also give you fuller, cleaner hair.
Spray lemon juice
Lemon juice, which is commonly found in refrigerators during the festive season, has a high acid content, which is exactly what oily hair needs. Acids neutralize and remove the alkaline oil from hair and scalp. When you feel your hair becoming flat and oily, squeeze ¼ cup of lemon juice into a spray bottle containing 2 liters of water. Spray it on your hair and let it air dry or blow-dry it on a cold setting to reduce excess natural oil.
Instead of carrying a heavy dry shampoo bottle, you can easily mix this solution anywhere, as long as you have a small spray bottle.
Spray sea salt water
The two ions in salt, Na+ and Cl-, help clean and absorb oil, keeping the scalp fresh. However, applying pure salt directly to the hair can have the opposite effect, making it dry, brittle, and tangled. Dilute sea salt or combine it with other ingredients to create a shampoo or hair massage mixture. In an emergency to combat oily hair, you can purchase sea salt spray or Sea Salt Water products, also known as hair volumizing spray. Alternatively, dissolve a small amount of salt in water, put it in a spray bottle, and spritz it on your hair. Gently massage it into your scalp for a few minutes, then blow-dry your hair.
Sea salt can also be used to make homemade shampoo or a scalp exfoliating mixture.
Be mindful of unexpected habits that contribute to oily hair
The reasons for oily hair are not limited to weather conditions, hair type, or styling methods but can also stem from everyday habits. Maintaining a healthy hair routine by regularly brushing, washing, and drying your hair is not always enough to keep it bouncy and smooth. To ensure your hair stays voluminous during the festive season, pay attention to the following small actions:
Tying your hair too tightly against your scalp can stimulate oil production and trap dirt and sweat.
The habit of constantly touching, stroking, or brushing your hair can transfer excess oil and dirt from your hands to your hair.
Using a serum with a high oil content can make hair greasy. Opt for a liquid serum that can be sprayed onto the hair instead.
