Shampoo for oily hair

Shampoo for oily hair should not only cleanse the scalp of excess fat and control the work of the sebaceous glands, but also take care of the hair.

What shampoo to wash oily hair?

First of all, you need to pay attention to the composition. The most natural shampoo for oily hair does not contain soda laureth sulfates and parabens, but the price of such a product is quite high. Alternative SLS components are:

1. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.
2. Ammonium Laureth Sulfate.
3. TEA Layril Sulfate.
4. Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate.
5. TEM Laureth Sulfate.

The next important indicator is the shelf life of the shampoo – the shorter it is, the higher the quality of the product. The fact is that natural extracts, unfortunately, quickly deteriorate, so a short shelf life promises the maximum amount of organic components in the shampoo.

You also need to consider the color and texture of the product. It is desirable that the medicated shampoo for oily hair be transparent and not too viscous. This will ensure the gentle removal of excess fat from the scalp and high-quality cleansing of dandruff. In addition, in transparent liquid products, the minimum amount of dyes and thickeners.
