Homemade Oily Hair Remedies

Homemade Oily Hair Remedies

• You can try some solutions at home for very oily hair, such as a dishwashing liquid that contains degreasing agents. Just mix 2 or 3 drops of the dishwashing liquid into a dab of shampoo in your hand. Be careful not to get it in your eyes!

• Mix juice from 1 lemon with 1 cup water and rinse through your hair. Rinse with warm water.

• Soak your hair in a small basin of water with 1/4 cup cider vinegar. Wash out with warm water.

• Use fresh beer as a setting lotion for greasy hair.

• What about holistic remedies? You can try a natural astringent such as witch hazel. It may help slow down the oil production of the sebaceous glands in your scalp. It’s good to mix witch hazel with mouthwash and apply it to your scalp with a cotton ball. If your hair is extremely oily, you can apply this homemade astringent each time you shampoo.

• You can also use essential oils to care for oily hair. Add 8 drops of rosegeranium essential oil and 8 drops of lemongrass essential oil to an 8-ounce bottle of your regular shampoo.
