Beautiful, shiny, smooth curls - the dream of any of us. After all, it has long been known that hair is a kind of indicator of the health of the whole body. Of course, most often too greasy or dry hair - the result of heredity, but in this case, you can choose the right care that will make your hair beautiful.
Let's talk about how to take care of oily hair. For starters - about general rules.
Of all the procedures, the most important, of course, is the washing of the head, which performs hygienic and cosmetic functions. The frequency of washing the head depends entirely on personal need and varies from everyday to once in 8-10 days. Of course, greasy hair requires washing once a day or two. Use for this you need only special soft shampoos designed for oily hair. Make this choice is easy: carefully read the description on the package, compare the characteristics. If you were able to choose the right shampoo, the hair will be clean, without fat, after drying, they will shine, comb well, and the scalp will be without irritation. By the way, if you pick up the right shampoo, you can use it constantly, since the statement that you need to constantly change shampoos to maintain a beautiful and healthy kind of hair is nothing more than a myth. It should be remembered that in order to wash the head, in no case does soap fit, which supposedly contains greasy hair for a longer time. In fact, it completely destroys the protective water-lipid emulsion film from both hair and scalp. The hair after such washing becomes excessively dry, damaged, less combed, becomes duller.
Now about the technique of washing the head. Do not wash your hair with too hot or cold water: 35-45 degrees - the optimum temperature. The fatter the hair, the cooler the water should be. Shampoo should be applied to damp hair, slowly rub it into the scalp, and only wash the hair with a formed foam, while trying not to rub them hard against each other so as not to damage the core and cuticle of the hair. It is necessary to soap the hair twice to enhance the healing and cleansing effect of the shampoo.
Of course, a simple washing of the head when caring for oily hair is not enough. To care for them, it is recommended to use decoctions and infusions of medicinal herbs. Also try using alcohol preparations from medicinal plants. Alcohol tinctures are rubbed into the scalp with a cotton swab. In this case, several factors influence the site of application of the preparation: the biologically active substances of plants and alcohol allow to remove excess fat from the hair and scalp, and rubbing, similar to massage, improves blood circulation in the skin. The strongest effect is produced by the following plants: aloe, or a century-old, calendula, Japanese sophora, field horsetail.
Also, do not abuse all sorts of sweets, spices. Try to exclude from the diet of smoked products, canned food and coffee, replace animal fats with vegetable oils. Since oily scalp is most often caused by an incorrect metabolism, start with the organization of a balanced diet saturated with vitamins and trace elements. The menu includes vegetables and fruits, dairy products. From time to time, add porridge (for example, oatmeal) to the diet, which contain, in addition to vitamins, also salts of silicon, sulfur, as well as trace elements such as cobalt and copper.
Care for oily hair is simple enough, but it should be regular and complex.
