How to wash oily hair the right way – step by step

Oily hair can feel like a constant struggle. You wash your hair in the morning – and by the evening your scalp feels oily again. But the solution often lies not in washing more often, but in how you wash your hair. With the right technique and products, you can easily achieve a scalp that feels fresher for longer.

At Dalarnas EKO we have developed a complete OIL Control KIT for those with oily hair. The kit contains:

• Vanilla Everyday Shampoo Bar – gentle but effective cleansing

• Vanilla Balsam Cake – nourishes the lengths without weighing them down

• Organic Jojoba Oil – balances sebum production in the scalp

Together, this will be your best routine against oily hair.

Step-by-step: How to wash oily hair with OIL Control KIT

1. First shampooing
   Wet your hair thoroughly. Circulate Vanilla Everyday Shampoo Cake directly onto your scalp.

   • Massage in thoroughly with your fingers or a Scalp Brush .

   • Rinse thoroughly.

2. Conditioner for the lengths
   Apply Vanilla Balsamic Cake only on the lengths. Avoid the scalp – otherwise the hair may feel greasy faster.

3. Second shampooing
   Shampoo your scalp once more, this time with your fingers.

   • Important: make sure to section your hair so that the shampoo really reaches the entire scalp.

   • A common mistake is to miss the area in the middle of the back of the head where the hair is often thickest. Part the hair in the middle and massage the shampoo in there as well.

💡 Tip: During the first wash, the shampoo will not lather much. This is completely normal – shampoo lathers less when it encounters grease and dirt. During the second wash, when your hair is clean, you will get a rich lather and that fresh feeling you crave.

Why does my hair get greasy again?

If your hair feels greasy quickly after washing, it's often a matter of technique , not the shampoo. Make sure you really rinse out both shampoo and conditioner thoroughly and massage the product into your entire scalp.

Bonus: Balance your scalp with jojoba oil

An oily scalp can sometimes be caused by an imbalance in sebum production. . Here you can Organic Jojoba Oil help. The oil is similar to the skin's own sebum and can be used as a light treatment on the scalp once a week to soothe and balance.

What do I do if my hair still feels greasy?

Have you followed the washing routine but still find that your hair quickly becomes greasy? Then there are a few extra things you can try:

• Wash your hairbrush more often. A dirty brush can easily transfer grease and product residue back to your freshly washed hair.

• Review your technique. Often it's a matter of the shampoo not really reaching the entire scalp, or not rinsing it out properly.
