Tricks to reduce hair greasiness (so you don't wash it every day)

When you shower, protect your hair with a hat and try to cut back on hair products that can stain your hair if they build up.


Experts recommend that it is ideal to wash your hair once, at most twice a week.


If you are used to washing it almost every day, it would hardly last a whole week.

But there are tricks that will help you reduce the oiliness of your hair, thereby reducing the need to wash it several times a week.

Some of them below:

Put a hat on when you shower

If you just tie your hair up with a barrette or clip when you shower, a drop of shampoo may still end up on it. And since you won't be rinsing this shampoo off, your hair will remain dirty.

So it's best to wear a shower cap. If you don't have one, you can just wrap your hair in a plastic bag.

Wear hats and tie your hair up in a ponytail

After a few days, the hair will normally look greasy.

If you want to delay washing a little longer, feel free to put it in a ponytail or hide it with a hat, hat, scarf...

Don't overdo it with hair products

Although some products should not be rinsed out, be aware that over time they will accumulate on the hair and make it greasy.

If you don't want to wash your hair very often, use less products.

Dry your hair immediately if you accidentally wet it

If you accidentally get your hair wet while washing your face, blow dry it immediately so it doesn't look greasy.

Wash your hair less often

If you start washing your hair once or twice a week, over time it will become less greasy.

Just keep in mind that it will take time for the hair to adapt.

Comb your hair every day

With regular combing, you will spread the oils from the scalp throughout the hair, so the hair will look clean for a longer time.

Also, with regular combing, you will avoid tangling and thus hair breakage.

Put it in a ponytail when it's very hot

When the weather is very hot, it's normal to sweat on your neck and back, and this sweat can tangle your hair while you sleep.

Therefore, when the temperatures are very high, it is best to collect your hair before going to bed.

Use dry shampoo

These shampoos are a great product if you want to delay washing for a day or two.

But don't overdo it either – if you put them on every day, you'll get the opposite effect.



Blot up excess grease with toilet paper or a paper towel

These products have a strong absorbent power, so they can absorb as much oil from the scalp and make the hair look cleaner.
