Many people have greasy hair again for a short time after washing the hair. The reason for this is the permanently excessive production of sebum (lat. Sebum) through the sebaceous glands in the scalp. Not only young people in puberty have to do with rapidly rapid hair, but also many adults, which is mostly perceived as an optical flaw.

The secretion of Hautalg is a natural process. The sebum makes our hair and scalp smoothly and water pearls. The skin valley also creates acidic skin environment and strengthens the skin protection barrier to prevent the penetration of irritants. Every person produces about one to two grams of skin alg every day.

Causes of greasy hair

Each hair is connected to a sebaceous gland (lat. Glandula sebacea), which sits in the upper area of ​​the dermis. The secretion is directed from a bag along the hair follicle to the surface of the skin (Holocrine secretion). Excessive activity or production of lipids (fats) through the sebaceous glands in the scalp can have different causes:

• Genetic predisposition to increased sebum production
• High number of sebum glands
• Hormonal fluctuations
• Environmental influences
• Taking medication
• Bad nutrition/ increased alcohol consumption
• Excessive distribution of stress hormones (e.g. adrenaline)

AESTHETICS

Excessive valley on the head makes the hair look quickly neglected and glued. Regulation of secretion secretion is difficult with the inherited predisposition that occurs particularly frequently. Very fine hair appears faster faster than thicker hair. However, strong and frequent brushes should be reduced in order not to distribute the sebum unnecessarily in the main hair.

Wearing a hat hides the problem, but cannot stop the cause. The hair is permanently pressed closer to the greasy scalp and appear faster greasy. Voluminous styled hairstyles are therefore recommended. The greasy hair problem is also reinforced by sweating heavily in sports or at increased temperatures.

Tips for greasy hair

• Reduction of stress

• Thiocyn hair serum

Are hormones responsible for greasy hair?

Male sex hormones (androgens), especially Dihydrotestosterone, have a stimulating influence on the sebaceous glands, while female sex hormones (estrogens) have an opposite effect on secretion production. That is why men tend to be greasy, women tend to be a dry scalp.

The occurrence of fatty hair in women can be favored by hormone -like weights during puberty, during pregnancy or during menopause. In order to find out whether the increased sebum production is connected to the hormone level, a blood count or urine test can provide information from the doctor.

Care of greasy hair

Greasy hair and greasy dandruff are often a problem of a scalp from balance. Shampoos with too strong surfactants can continue to boost sebum production after washing. The hair becomes greasy faster because the sebaceous glands want to repair the skin protection barrier.

A shampoo against greasy hair should be special Mild for the scalp be and have a slightly degreasing effect. When washing hair, it is advantageous to use lukewarm water, not to dry the hair with hot hair dryer air and to avoid excessive stimulation of the sebaceous glands, for example by stubborn rubbing.
