Why do women's hairs frequently produce oil?

Many girls with oily hair wonder why their hair is always oily even though they have just washed it. What are the factors that cause oily hair? Let’s take a brief look at it together.

1. Huge pressure.

Stress will affect the secretion of sebaceous glands. The greater the stress, the more sebum will be secreted, making it more likely to produce oily hair.

2. Excessive use of cosmetics.

In particular, some hairsprays or styling sprays may increase the oiliness of the scalp. Furthermore, some shampoos contain moisturizing ingredients, which may aggravate the problem of oiliness.

3. Not paying attention to cleaning.

Many girls don’t wash their hair during their menstrual period. In fact, a menstrual period usually lasts about a week. If you don’t wash your hair, it would be strange if your scalp doesn’t become oily.

4. Washing your hair too frequently.

Experts say that not paying attention to the cleanliness of your head will make your hair look greasy. In fact, excessive cleaning can also cause excessive oil secretion in the scalp. Because the skin responds based on the information it receives. For example, if you wash your hair too frequently, the sebum will receive a signal of "lack of oil" and will further secrete more oil.

5. Bad living habits.

For example, unbalanced nutrition, eating too greasy, spicy food, staying up late, etc. these factors may affect the human endocrine system and cause oily hair.

Furthermore, some diseases, such as problems with the endocrine system, abnormal skin metabolism, etc., may cause oily hair problems. So how do you prevent and treat the problem of oily hair in your daily life?

First of all, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Pay attention to the combination of work and rest, get more rest, and make sure you get enough sleep. Pay attention to good living habits, reduce high-fat and high-calorie foods, reduce spicy foods, and pay attention to the balance of nutrition in all aspects. Avoid being too nervous, maintain a good attitude, participate in more outdoor sports, etc.

Secondly, choose the right shampoo. It should be said that the common shampoos on the market currently have the functions of cleansing and moisturizing. For girls with oily hair, it is best to choose a shampoo with better cleansing effect, and also pay attention to whether it has the function of controlling oil. Of course, you can choose these based on your own life experience.

Another thing is to pay attention to the frequency of washing your hair. It should be said that for normal people, it is enough to wash it every other day. For example, it is OK to wash it two or three times a week, there is no need to wash it every day. Furthermore, if you are used to washing your hair every day, it is recommended that you only wash it with clean water and do not need to use shampoo to clean your scalp every day.

At the same time, experts also pointed out that women who like to consume oily hair should reduce the number of times they comb their hair, because if they comb their hair too frequently, it will easily have a certain massage and health-care effect on the scalp, thereby stimulating the secretion of oil and may aggravate the problem of oil secretion.

Finally, a reminder to girls with oily hair: oily hair is closely related to excessive psychological pressure from facing the computer for a long time, and improper eating habits. Therefore, in order to have healthy hair, you must pay attention to these details in your daily life and take good care of your hair.
