Brushing your hair more than twice?

In case you don't know, let us tell you that brushing your hair too much can leave it oily. As combing distributes hair oil, it also stimulates oil production called sebum. This makes your hair look greasy the very next day after your hair shampoo.

STOP touching your hair

Just as touching your face too often can lead to acne, touching your hair too often can lead to added grease as well. You eat, your commute, and you do everything, and then touch your hair with those hands without washing them -this is what causes grease in your hair.

Do not aim for easy buns all the time

Making a bun or a ponytail hairstyle all the time is one reason for your greasy hair. Tied up hair trap all the dirt and grease together and holds it. So, it is very important that you let your locks flow and breathe.

Washing too much hair is another reason
