Why It Happens And What Helps
If your scalp feels greasy within a day but your hair ends feel dry and rough, you are dealing with oily scalp dry hair. This combination is extremely common and often misunderstood.
Most people treat only the hair or only the scalp, which makes the imbalance worse instead of better.
Why does it happen that your scalp is oily but hair remains moisture-less?
This condition occurs due to excess oil production at the scalp and lack of moisture in the hair shaft (sebaceous gland overactivity). In simple words, your scalp produces too much oil, while the ends do not receive enough nourishment.
What Actually Helps
- Scalp treatments to control oil production
- Targeted conditioning only on hair lengths
- Gentle cleansing without stripping oils
