I have been suffering from oily scalp and oiliness over t junction. Even though I wash my hair and face regularly scalp and face becoming oily after a couple of hours. This is really disgusting and I can't face others due to this as someone can clearly see my oily look and I am losing confidence. I drink 3-4 lit of water everyday. I do workouts regularly. I follow diet also. I consume lemon water every alternative day. I apply lemon over scalp every alternative day. I fed up with diy techniques. I tried lot of natural remedies.

1. Wash face regularly --washing regularly can reduce the amount of oil on the skin. Wash with a gentle soap and warm water

3. Pat the face dry--when drying the face after washing and using toner, people should gently pat their skin dry with a soft towel. This should be done with care, however. Pulling down on the skin wi...more

If the reason for thinning hair is genetics, it will not grow back on its own. To grow back a healthy, full head of hair, you'll need to take action, and that involves reviewing different hair loss options.

An oily scalp is caused by over-reactive sebaceous glands on the scalp..in the worst cases, the sebum glands clog the hair roots and may cause excessive hair loss and dandruff. Causes of excess sebum secretion include genes, hormonal imbalances, humidity, diet, etc.

Pinpointing the exact cause of your itchy, flaky scalp can be difficult, but here are a few common culprits: irritated and oily skin, a condition also known as seborrheic dermatitis (a more severe form of dandruff) not shampooing enough, which causes skin cells to accumulate and create flakes and itching.

Everything is connected when it comes to your body, and that includes what you put in it. If you have a vitamin deficiency, your skin and scalp can take a toll. In particular, the intake of b vitamins is directly linked with your level of sebum production.

Wash oily hair more frequently. How often you wash your hair should be based on how much oil your scalp produces.
