Aromatherapy for Oily Hair

Oily Hair can be effectively addressed with aromatherapy. Essential oils improve scalp health, stimulate blood circulation to hair follicles, and help regulate sebum production.

Each recommended oil addresses oily hair through different mechanisms — from antimicrobial action against scalp conditions to improved microcirculation that nourishes hair follicles.

How to Use

  1. Shampoo boost: Add 5-10 drops per 100 ml of shampoo

  3. Leave-in treatment: 1-2 drops in carrier oil, applied to scalp overnight
  4. Hot oil treatment: Weekly deep conditioning with essential-oil-infused carrier oils
