Y my scalp nd T-zone becomes oily too fast ? - #9164

Dear Nikhil, I understand how frustrating it is to deal with an oily scalp and T-zone, especially when you have to shampoo daily just to keep it under control. The fact that you’re getting relief from the Naturali Anti-Dandruff Shampoo is a good sign, but since the itching and tingling return the next day, it indicates that the root cause isn’t fully addressed yet. Your scalp and T-zone are getting oily too fast because of overactive sebaceous glands, which can be triggered by multiple factors: hormonal imbalances, diet, excessive washing, or even fungal overgrowth (seborrheic dermatitis). Shampooing every day might give temporary relief, but in the long run, it strips natural oils, making your scalp produce even more oil as a defense mechanism. Permanent Solution to Oily Scalp & Itching ✔ Switch to Sulfate-Free Shampoo (2-3 times a week) • Instead of washing daily, use a gentle, sulfate-free anti-dandruff shampoo only 2-3 times a week (Look for Ketoconazole or Zinc Pyrithione in the ingredients). • On other days, rinse your hair with plain water or diluted apple cider vinegar (ACV) to balance oil production. ✔ Scalp Tonic or Light Hair Serum • Apply a scalp serum with niacinamide or green tea extract at night to regulate oil production. • Avoid heavy oils like coconut oil, which can clog follicles and worsen oiliness. ✔ Exfoliate Scalp Weekly • Mix 2 tbsp aloe vera gel + 1 tbsp lemon juice and massage it onto your scalp before washing. • Helps unclog pores and reduces oil buildup. ✔ Balance Your Diet • Avoid excessive sugar, dairy, and fried foods, as they increase oil production. • Eat zinc-rich foods (pumpkin seeds, nuts) and drink plenty of water to control sebum. ✔ T-zone Oil Control • Use an oil-free face wash with salicylic acid to keep your skin matte for longer. • Dab a niacinamide-based moisturizer to balance oil without making your skin greasy. Your scalp will take a few weeks to adjust, but once it does, you won’t need daily shampooing. Let your scalp breathe and reset its natural oil production! Stick with this routine for a month, and you’ll see a lasting difference.
