Kerastase recently introduced a range of hair care products geared toward scalp health, such as this balancing shampoo for oily roots and dry ends. Pro stylists love its ultra-light formula to reduce excess sebum production for reduced sebum build-up while leaving hair clean and detangled.
The nourishing shampoo features a blend of nettle and clay designed to thoroughly purify your scalp by clearing away build up, while amino acid helps regulate sebum cycle balance while simultaneously rehydrating hair follicles.
1. Ethique St. Clements Shampoo Bar
Ethique’s St Clements shampoo differs from many in that it does not rely on harsh surfactants to strip hair and scalp of oil, using natural extracts from Rosemary, Juniper, Basil and Lime to balance oil production, clean scalps thoroughly and freshen strands up – in addition to light humectants that allow you to forgo conditioner use altogether!
Soak your hair with water, then slowly slide the bar from root to tip three or four times before setting down and working shampoo into a lather before rinsing thoroughly if desired. Conditioner may also be added if desired.
Formulated with cocoa Butter and moisture-drawing humectants, this shampoo is free from palm oil, parabens and unnecessary plastic packaging; additionally it is vegan- and cruelty-friendly and manufactured in New Zealand by a certified carbon neutral company.
2. Klorane 2-in-1 Mask Shampoo Powder
Klorane 2-in-1 Mask Shampoo Powder offers an in-shower treatment designed for those prone to feeling oily throughout the day and are concerned about their hair and scalp’s appearance. Made from Organic Nettle and Absorbent Clay, it helps purify the scalp while decreasing frequency of washes for maximum benefit.
This oil-control treatment should be used weekly in place of liquid shampoo to address excessive sebum production and absorb any excess for 48 hours. Plus, this product is free from sulphates, parabens, animal-derived ingredients – so your hair remains safe!
The powder is straightforward to use: simply empty one sachet into your palm, add water and mix until a creamy lather forms before applying it directly onto the scalp area and roots – leaving it for some minutes before rinsing off later on.
3. Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Shampoo
This shampoo offers a lightweight formula designed to balance scalp oiliness while cleansing without stripping hair of its moisture. “People may mistakenly assume their oily hair is caused by excessive sweating or their hair products; in reality, it may be an indicator of an over-dried scalp and hair,” as Dr. Amin notes.
Shampoo is intended to effectively cleanse hair and scalp of toxins, dirt, natural scalp oils and styling product build-up – and this shampoo does just that with some very promising ingredients. Unfortunately though, too frequent usage could potentially damage hair; such agents include propylene glycol, dimethicone and artificial colors (CI 42090 and 19140).
Overall, this shampoo is an ideal product for anyone struggling with an overactive scalp or just seeking to enhance their morning shower experience. Plus, tea tree oil has long been known for treating mild cases of Seborrheic Dermatitis while offering an invigorating tingle upon rinse off!
4. WYOS The Mane Event Daily Shampoo Stick
WYOS offers an innovative travel-friendly solid shampoo formula designed for travel that’s leakproof and TSA approved, while providing nourishment with Calophyllum Inophyllum Seed Oil (Tammanu), Piroctone Olamine, and Glycerin for optimal nourishing benefits.
This ultra-light formula effectively balances scalp oiliness, visibly reduces excess sebum production and odors, and boosts shine without stripping strands. Simply wet your locks before running a stick through roots and scalp to lather before rinsing off for maximum effectiveness.
Packaging for these five pieces is 100% recyclable with at least 20% postconsumer recycled content, including The Clean Sweep Gentle Face Cleanser, Big Reveal Purifying Face Mask, Disappearing Act Shaving Suds Stick and Shining Star All Over Moisturizer Stick.
