Oily hair is probably the most difficult to care for on a daily basis. This type of hair is a different world, since you have to regulate the production of sebum. There are appropriate ingredients but you have to maintain the proportions and their frequency of use if you want to achieve smooth and healthy hair. You can add these active ingredients to your home masks for greasy hair to avoid buying expensive products. If you like the idea, here are some information to teach you how to make masks for oily hair in a few very simple steps.
Clay mask
As you already know, clays (especially green clay and kaolin) are excellent allies to combat oily hair.
Homemade mask with lemon and yogurt
Lemon is one of the most effective natural active ingredients to control sebum production. If it is combined with another ingredient such as yogurt, it will give it a more mask-like consistency, as well as providing additional properties. To make it, you need the following ingredients and proportions.
- A yogurt
- Lemon juice
- Another ingredient, such as honey or aloe vera
- To give it consistency, a tablespoon of gelatin
To make it, first mix the gelatin with a little warm water. Add the tablespoon of aloe vera and stir well. On the other hand, beat the egg with the lemon and add it to the mixture. When it is homogeneous, apply it on the hair for 15 minutes and remove it with your usual shampoo. Since your hair is oily, repeat the process a couple of times a week.
Mask for oily hair with egg and banana
Banana is one of the most important active ingredients in hair care. Making homemade mask for oily hair with it is a great option. To make it, break up a banana with a fork or a mixer and add the egg. Mix them well. You can also add half natural yogurt.
Spread it well all over the scalp and ends and wait about 20-25 minutes. It is advisable that you wrap your hair with a hot, damp towel or plastic wrap.
When the time has passed, shampoo it out and use a conditioner for oily hair. Repeat this procedure at least once a week.
