Oily hair is something a lot of people deal with. Some oil in your hair is good because it provides protection your hair needs, but how do you retain your hair’s natural oils without it looking greasy? This is where hair training comes into play. What Is Hair Training? It’s a way of cutting back on shampooing to help reduce buildup and grease. Once trained, you’ll only need to wash your hair once a week. In fact, by limiting the number of washes, your hair will look healthier and stronger, but it’s important to note that this process will take some time. Your hair needs to get used to the new routine before you’ll see results. How to Train Your Hair • When you’re on day two or three, use dry shampoo, which is in powder form. Put it on your scalp and where your hair is parted and also around your ears. Then, lightly massage the product into your hair until the residue is invisible. This will help your hair look less greasy. Then wait a few more days to wash if you can. • On wash days, use a shampoo designed to exfoliate your scalp to remove excess product and oil. This will help your hair look less oily throughout the week. By massaging your scalp, you activate the blood vessels — and that promotes hair growth. It will also make your hair look thicker because you’re stimulating the hair follicles. • After shampooing your scalp and the top of your head, only condition the ends of your hair. Conditioner moisturizes your hair, so if you put it on your scalp, you’re adding oil where it’s not needed, and your hair will look greasy much faster. • Once you’re out of the shower, let your hair air dry. Using a hairdryer can stimulate your scalp to produce excess oils to compensate for the drying air. If you want to cut down the drying time, add a leave-in conditioner to your hair when it’s damp. Avoid the scalp. Hair care isn’t the same for everyone, so do what makes you comfortable. How often you wash your hair depends on the thickness and type of hair that you have. Hair training is all about trial and error. With time, you will find a routine that works best for you and your hair.
