Waking up with oily hair—again. It's frustrating, especially if you've washed it the night before. Around 40% of adults struggle with excess scalp oil, feeling self-conscious about limp, greasy strands and frequent breakouts along the hairline.
Your scalp has sebaceous glands that pump out sebum, a natural oil meant to protect skin and hair. But factors like genetics, hormonal shifts, humidity, heavy conditioners, and even stress can make these glands go into overdrive. Some shampoos actually strip the scalp, causing it to rebound and produce even more oil.
If you want to keep your scalp fresher for longer, start with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo. Harsh cleansers just amp up oil production. Wash every other day—daily washing can backfire and worsen the problem. Use lukewarm water, not hot, to avoid stimulating the glands further.
Lotus Botanicals offers plant-powered shampoos and scalp treatments designed for oily hair types. Our formulas blend green clay and niacinamide to reduce excess oil, while staying free from sulfates, silicones, and parabens.

1. Can stress make my scalp oilier?
Yes, stress can trigger hormonal changes that ramp up sebum production, making your scalp look and feel greasier.
2. How often should I exfoliate my scalp?
Once a week is plenty for most people. Overdoing it can irritate the skin and make oiliness worse.
3. Is it okay to use dry shampoo on an oily scalp?
Dry shampoo helps in a pinch, but don't rely on it daily. It can build up and clog follicles over time.
4. Why does conditioner make my roots greasy?
Conditioner is meant for the lengths and ends of your hair. Applying it to your scalp can leave roots slick and heavy.
5. Will washing my hair every day fix oily scalp?
Actually, daily washing often does the opposite. It strips natural oils so your scalp produces even more oil to compensate.
6. What ingredients should I look for in shampoo for oily scalp?
Green clay, tea tree oil, and niacinamide are all great for balancing oil without stripping your scalp.
7. Why choose Lotus Botanicals for oily scalp care?
We use plant-based ingredients like green clay and niacinamide in our shampoos, designed to control oil while being gentle on your scalp.
8. Can using hats or scarves make my scalp oilier?
Wearing hats or scarves for long periods traps heat and sweat, which can make your scalp grease up faster.
9. Are Lotus Botanicals products vegan and cruelty-free?
Absolutely! All our products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free, with no parabens, sulfates, or silicones.
10. Will scalp exfoliation help with oiliness?
Definitely. A gentle exfoliant removes dead skin and build-up, helping your scalp breathe and reducing excess oil.
