Oily hair and unbalanced scalp: understanding the origin of the problem
An oily scalp can result from multiple factors. In many cases, it's caused by a malfunction of the sebaceous glands, which produce excessive amounts of sebum, the naturally occurring oily substance that protects hair. When this production becomes excessive, it can cause a feeling of heaviness, an oily appearance, and hinder healthy hair growth.

Possible causes include hereditary predispositions, hormonal imbalances, a rich diet, vitamin deficiencies, and stress. These factors can disrupt the scalp's natural balance.

Over time, some people notice this tendency to worsen. Excess sebum can not only suffocate the scalp, but also slow down hair renewal. This can lead to gradual thinning of the hair, or even more severe hair loss.
