A long time ago I became acquainted with the magic clay called Ghassoul. This is Moroccan volcanic clay. It has an excellent cleansing effect and does not dry out the skin. In addition to using it on the face, it can be used to cleanse the entire body! And even for hair! But, however, washing your hair with clay takes longer than with shampoo... And then shampoo from the German brand Urtekram will come to your aid.

Yes, yes, you didn’t think there was a shampoo with clay in it! It's one of a kind! The shampoo itself has simple packaging. The volume is 250 ml and 500 ml, which is very convenient. At the same time, the price is acceptable for everyone for a product that has an eco-certificate.

In addition to the miraculous clay, it also contains mint essential oil. Which, by the way, gives the shampoo a fresh aroma. Therefore, men will also like the shampoo.

It itself has an unusual texture, similar to a thick gel! The color is like chocolate... the main thing is not to eat it! You can see inclusions of clay particles that are washed out of the head. So you don't have to worry.

The shampoo foams great! Since it contains a mixture of hard and soft natural surfactants. Therefore, it is enough to wash your hair once. My husband and I used it as a couple. We both have oily roots, but my husband’s scalp is more sensitive. If he uses one shampoo for a long time, he develops dandruff and itching. This did not happen with Urtekram shampoo. It suited him perfectly! And he even asked me to buy more. In principle, I also liked the shampoo, but I expected it to have volume at the roots, but this did not happen... And the shampoo was sent to my husband for use!

Such an interesting shampoo requires attention, I’m especially glad that it’s suitable sensitive skin heads! Definitely a must try.

Nature gives us many plants and substances that are ideal for hair care. High-quality, fresh and certified ingredients used to prepare various masks, balms and shampoos for hair at home will provide effective care, in no way inferior to the use of expensive cosmetics.

Those with oily scalp need to adhere to certain rules in Everyday life and choose the right cosmetics. An important role is played by what shampoo for oily hair it is used and what functions it performs. How to properly care for problematic hair, and what you need to know when choosing skincare products, will be discussed further.

Features of oily hair

On the human scalp there is a special fatty lubricant (hydrolipid film), designed to protect the epidermis from damage and the strands from excessive dryness. It prevents the growth of bacteria and penetration into dermal layer dirt and other harmful particles. With normal functioning of the sebaceous glands (sebum production), the lubricant does not pollute the hair for a long time. But when their activity becomes more active, the hair quickly becomes oily and has to be washed frequently (once every 1-2 days).

The cause of increased sebum formation may be:

• genetic predisposition;
• hormonal disbalance;
• incorrectly selected cosmetics;
• eating spicy, salty and fried foods.

Attention! Correctly selected shampoo can correct the situation and regulate the intensity of sebum production.

How to choose

It is better to purchase any skincare cosmetics from a trusted supplier:

• in pharmacies;
• in online stores that have the appropriate certificates;
• at offline points of sale with a proven reputation.

Choosing a remedy it is better to give preference to shampoos without the 2 in 1 function (shampoo and conditioner in one bottle). Such products do not wash the hair properly, and the conditioner “seals” unwashed strands. It is better to use both products separately.

It is also worth considering that there are shampoos for men (the main criterion is to wash the hair “until it squeaks”) and women’s (have a gentle effect).

Ideally, the product should consist of natural ingredients. But there are brands that contain chemical ingredients in acceptable and safe quantities. Most popular:

• parabens - preservatives, the permissible amount of which is up to 0.19%;
• sulfates - sulfuric acid salts that form foam - it is better if there is no more than 1%.

Almost every hair care cosmetics manufacturer also produces products for oily hair. This product contains active components that regulate the functioning of the sebaceous glands. Sebum is released with less intensity, and you can wash your hair less often. It is ideal if the chosen product also solves other related problems: eliminating dry ends or dandruff, adding volume, strengthening, etc.

Depending on the condition of your hair, you need to select the type of detergent.
