Wash hair regularly with a gentle shampoo
Focus shampoo on the scalp, not the ends
Rinse thoroughly to remove all product buildup
Use conditioner only on the mid-lengths and ends
Avoid overusing hair oils, serums, and styling creams
Use dry shampoo between washes if needed
Avoid touching your hair too often
Brush hair regularly to distribute natural oils
Wash pillowcases and hats frequently
Use lukewarm water instead of very hot water
Choose lightweight, oil-free hair products
Reduce heavy sweating buildup by washing after workouts
Avoid overwashing if it makes your scalp produce more oil
Keep bangs and roots clean and dry
See a dermatologist if oily hair is persistent or severe
