Grease And Tangles

Hair that is greasy and tangled is the facial equivalent of acne. It can make you feel self-conscious and hinder your ability to look or feel your best. The first step in treating any problem is determining its root cause, literally! With this article, we hope to help you understand the causes of greasy and tangled hair, as well as possible remedies.

What is Greasy and Tangled hair: 

Each follicle on your scalp is attached to an oil-producing gland, which secretes sebaceous filaments. This perspired substance, referred to as sebum, travels up the hair follicle to moisturize the scalp and strands.

When these glands fail to function correctly, it may result in overproduction of oil on the scalp. As a result, your roots become oily and greasy, while your strands remain dry and damaged due to a lack of moisture. Because the hair is undernourished, it dries out from the middle to the ends, resulting in frizzy, knotted tresses.

Causes and Symptoms: 

The reasons behind excessive sebum secretion and dry, knotty hair can be many, however, below are some common ones: 

1. Excessive Sun Exposure: If you go out often during the day time, UVA and UVB rays from the sun can damage your hair by potentially triggering moisture and protein loss.

As a result, hair becomes inelastic and prone to knots, breaks, and split ends. Sunlight also damages the cuticle, the outer layer of your shaft. This causes hair discoloration and dryness.

2. Overwashing: Believe it or not, can result in oily, greasy hair. Yes, shampooing can signal your glands to produce more sebum with each wash. If you do this too frequently, your scalp will develop an oil overload response. 

As a result, a greasy sebum buildup will ensue. Not to mention the possibility of attracting dirt and bacteria.

3. Heating tools: Excessive styling can be harmful to the health of your hair. Heat can damage your cells' outer layer and reduces moisture content, resulting in knots and tangled hair. 

4. Genetics: Your genes determine the majority of your physical characteristics. If it runs in your family, chances are you will also have to deal with it. Your genes may also influence the texture and thickness of your hair. Oily scalps and dry hair are more common in people with thin, fine hair.

Remedy: 

As you see above, the primary concern or cause of greasy and tangled hair is excess sebum production and dry strands. And we have a hair hack just for that–Niacinamide, Mango Butter, and Collagen. 

In clinical studies, niacinamide has been found to reduce excessive sebum production and restore the overall skin barrier. It benefits the scalp by locking in moisture, protecting delicate follicles from oxidative stressors, and promoting hair growth, shine, and texture. 

Collagen is found naturally in the body but deteriorates over time. This molecule is a vital functional protein for the scalp. Introducing this antioxidant in your hair care routine can mean nourished cuticle layers, no split ends, no breakage, and bye-bye tangled dry tresses. 

Mango butter can untangle your locks by adding moisture. It can also hydrate your hair and scalp without making it look greasy. And serves as a refuge for more robust, healthier hair growth. All of this is done without sacrificing luster or weighing down the strands.
