Best Shampoo to Treat Oily Scalp and Prevent Dandruff – ADV Purify Shampoo

The weather conditions in Singapore are definitely not favourable for oily scalps. It catalyses the production of sebum, leaving your hair limp and greasy which can make you feel less than good about yourself. An oily scalp also causes itchiness and the tendency to keep scratching the itchy scalp not only destroys your beautiful hairdo, but the dandruff that comes along with it can also make you feel self-conscious in public.

 

How do I know when I have an oily scalp?

Here are 2 basic rules to self-diagnose the condition of your scalp:

1. Look — look at yourself and your hair in the mirror. Does your hair look lifeless and limp? Do you see dandruff sticking on the strands? Does your hair look out of shape?
2. Touch — touch your hair. Does it feel greasy to touch? Do you find your roots oily and sticky at noon even though you just shampooed in the morning?

If your answers are both YES to the above questions, the chances that you have an oily scalp are high.

 

But why do I have an oily scalp?

There are myriad factors that contribute to this that range from hormonal imbalances, genetics, diet, and even the weather! You might have noticed that your hair looks fabulous in colder countries but is limp and lifeless in Singapore with our high humidity. The excess sebum produced by your scalp clogs up your hair follicles which lead to hair loss, dandruff, and shapeless hair. 🙁

 

So, what do I do now to treat the oily and itchy scalp?

Using the right hair cleanser is very important. For oily scalps and itchy scalps with dandruff, always opt for a clarifying shampoo, sometimes also called purifying or deep-cleansing shampoo, that are specifically made to strip residue, including oil and grease.
