Why does hair become oily?

There are several possible causes of oily hair. Among them, we note excess sebum, hormonal imbalance, stress or even a diet that is too fatty or unsuitable hair products.

The primary cause of an oily scalp is excessive production of sebum by the sebaceous glands. In fact, sebum acts as a hydrolipidic film which protects the hair from external aggressions and possible dehydration.


An excessive amount of sebum clogs hair follicles and blocks blood circulation to the surface of the scalp. 

When too much sebum is released, the surface of the scalp becomes oilier. This secretion must be regulated using seboregulating active ingredients such as nettle for example. We find this active ingredient in our Clear Skin Complex.


Hormonal imbalance can also be the cause of oily hair. During certain periods of life, such as puberty, menopause or andropause (male menopause), the hormonal system is put to the test, our body then struggles to process the steroids used as hormones.


Stress is also a main cause of an oily scalp, stress forces the body to operate at full capacity. It therefore produces more endogenous waste which may explain why your hair becomes oily again more quickly during a period of intense stress.


A diet that is too richis one of the most important sources that can cause oily hair. Indeed, an industrial diet is very often too rich, too sweet and too fatty. We will come back to how to adapt your diet to overcome oily hair below.

Finally, using an unsuitable hair routine for your hair type can cause hair to become greasy more easily. Too frequent washing and repetitive use of heating appliances will only aggravate the phenomenon of oily hair.

By avoiding foods that are too fatty and too sweet, you will act to rebalance sebum production.


We also advise you to include foods rich in vitamin B5 (legumes) but also in vitamin B-6 which are known to fight against oily hair.

We also recommend that you consume rich foods that are rich in Zinc such as oilseeds: cashews, pecans, almonds and sesame seeds. 


In summary, a balanced diet is the key to limiting the overproduction of sebum in the scalp.


While dietary changes can help reduce excess sebum production, it is also possible to use dietary supplements to help treat this problem.

First of all, it is important to understand what processed foods are. Processed foods are foods that have been altered from their natural state to extend their shelf life or improve their taste and texture. They can be found on supermarket shelves as snacks, prepared meals, soft drinks and many other products.


Many studies have shown that processed foods can have a negative impact on health. They often contain food additives such as artificial colors, preservatives and flavors, as well as high amounts of salt, sugar and fat. Excessive consumption of processed foods can contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and obesity.

Hormones such as testosterone and DHT ( dihydrotestosterone ) are known to play a role in hair loss in both men and women.


Processed foods can also cause imbalances in the gut microbiota .

Studies have shown that imbalances in the gut microbiota can affect hair health.

Vitamins such as vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin B12 are all important for hair health. Minerals such as iron, zinc , and selenium are also important for hair health. Essential fatty acids such as linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid are needed to maintain a healthy scalp and hair follicles.


It is strongly recommended to read the labels of processed foods to determine their nutritional content and avoid foods that are high in food additives,

It is therefore important to limit the use of these devices and use them at moderate temperatures to avoid drying out or damaging your hair.

Remember to clean your hairbrush regularly by removing hair and debris with a wide-toothed comb or small toothbrush. We also recommend washing your hairbrush with warm water and a little mild soap, then rinsing it and letting it air dry.
