There are a lot of options available to help you attain the optimal balance between oily and dry hair.Although heredity is thought to be the primary dictator of each person's respective oiliness or dryness woes, appreciation of the effect that daily haircare decisions have on your hair is key.You can handle it if you didn't ask for it.
Step 1: Pick the right product for your hair.
When the entire inscrutable shampoo aisle is looming down upon you, this task can feel insurmountable."For combination hair" is a term used to describe the treatment of dry and oily hair.Dandruff co-exists with oily hair.There are several dandruff shampoos that should be appropriate for you.If your usual brands don't get the job done for you at any point during this process, you should step away from them.
Step 2: Pick the right conditioner.
Although there are effective 2-in-1 products, they are not recommended for proper hair care.It will be easier for you to deal with both ends of the spectrum when you can separate the amount of conditioner and shampoo that you use.It's a sign that conditioners for dry hair are not as clear as others.
Step 3: How often should you wash?
It depends on your hair's thickness, coarseness, and curliness, but every head needs to be rid of dead skin, dirt and oils.It could mean twice a week, daily or every other week.If your hair is too oily, it's because the oils and dead skin on it aren't being washed away at the proper intervals.If you wash your natural oils away too frequently, your body will produce more and more of them.You were washing it frequently in the first place so that it wouldn't be so oily, and now that you have washed it too frequently, it makes it even oilier.Defining "regular" washing will require some experimentation, but if you're washing anywhere close to daily, you should wash less frequently at first.Western culture has ingrained that they need to wash more often than they actually do.If you've been washing your hair frequently, washing less frequently may leave it oily for a few days while you get used to it.
Step 4: You should wash your hair.
Put your hair in the shower and squeeze about a half inch to an inch into your hand.Depending on the length of your hair, the amount will be different.The shampooing technique should be similar to a gentle scalp massage.Sometimes bath soap can be used in place of shampoo.This method should only be used weekly, and not frequently performed for extended periods of time.It's too harsh on hair to use bath soap often.
Step 5: It is free to condition freely.

Step 6: When it's dry, wash your hair.
It is possible to combat oily-scalp-but-dry-roots situation by combing or brushing your hair.When it's dry, brushing it right when you leave the shower is a better idea than when it is wet.
Step 7: You can massage your hair.
It's helpful outside the shower as well as part of the proper shampooing technique.More of the oils essential to keep your hair healthy can be generated from a gentle massage.When you're already dealing with an oily scalp, it may feel counterintuitive to make more oils.The oils used in combination with all of the other techniques will nourish your dry hair, not cause it.
Step 8: You can mix it into your hair care products.
You can use a few drops for this mixture.There are many conditioners on the market that contain aloe as an ingredient.It's the bonus of being on the skin.It's important to note that lemon juice can have a drying effect on your hair, so apply it separately before you wash.
Step 9: An egg yolk conditioner is needed.
There are many different recipes to choose from, but a basic one uses two egg yolks and a small amount of olive or coconut oil.After applying the oil to your hair, let it sit for five minutes.It's a good idea to wash your hair thoroughly.If you want to alternate egg washes with regular cleanings, use instead of shampoo.
Step 10: Take a beer and put it over your head.
Really?The two remaining ingredients from the beer are malt and hops, which can help revive your dried out roots.You can mix boiled beer with a mild cleanser and use it in the shower if you prefer.In addition to your normal wash, this should be included occasionally.This will cause your head to smell like beer and you will interpret it as either positive or negative.
Step 11: You can use a cotton ball to get witch hazel on your head.
The oil will tighten up your blood vessels and act as an antiseptic, so it's a good idea to use it more on your head than your hair.
Step 12: The bottle of bleach should be put down.
Habitual hair dyeing can take a toll on your hair.Take a break from the color regimen if you keep having issues with dry roots.Your hair's health can be adversely affected by any heat processes or chemical treatments.If you have dry roots, limit blowdryer and flat iron use.
Step 13: Check your hair products for alcohol.
If you have dry roots, alcohol styling products should not be used.The added alcohol causes the product to function like an antagon on your dry roots.If you choose to continue using pomades, gels, mousses, and waxes, you should take care to only use them on the tips of your hair.Oiliness can be caused by too much at the base of your hair.
Step 14: Eat with care.
There are other factors that can affect the state of your hair.Deficiencies of riboflavin and B12 have been shown to cause oily hair.If you can't incorporate richer foods into your diet, you should look for supplements.Riboflavin is provided by dairy, dark green leafy vegetables and whole grains.Meat, poultry, eggs, fish, milk, and cheese are some of the best sources of vitamins B12 and C.
Step 15: You can change your care with your environment.
If your hair is oily, you may need to rinse it more often or refrain from using products.Winter months require a lot of conditioning to keep your dry roots from getting even dry, whereas summer months can over-moisturize hair.Hats or scarves are a good way to protect your hair from the sun's damaging rays.
