Prevent sweat and oily scalp after exercise
Sweating on the scalp is normal, especially after exercise. But for many people, increased sweating on the scalp can be annoying, both during exercise and in everyday life. In addition to being uncomfortable, it can leave your hair greasy and flat. Fortunately, there are several ways you can deal with sweat and an oily scalp.
Here are some effective tips to keep both your scalp and hair fresh.
WASH YOUR HAIR REGULARLY WITH A MILD SHAMPOO
When you exercise regularly, frequent washing of your hair may be necessary to avoid a build-up of sweat and oil. However, it is important to choose a mild shampoo that will not irritate the scalp or dry out the hair. Mellow Minds Neutral Shampoo Bar is an ideal choice for this purpose. This vegan and fragrance-free shampoo is gentle on the scalp, yet effective at cleansing the hair. It is enriched with natural, moisturizing ingredients that help maintain a healthy scalp without stripping the hair of its natural oils.
The Neutral Shampoo Bar is also pH balanced and based on mild, sulfate-free detergents, meaning it is suitable for frequent use and ideal for those with sensitive scalps. This also makes it good for those following the Curly Girl method.
USE DRY SHAMPOO FOR BUSY DAYS
On days when you don't have time for a full hair wash, a dry shampoo can be a quick and effective solution to remove excess oil from your scalp. Mellow Minds Dry Shampoo Powder is a powder-based dry shampoo that contains organic rice and tapioca powder. These natural ingredients absorb oil without irritating the scalp or leaving a white cast on the hair.
The fresh scent of rosemary and peppermint makes it extra pleasant to use, while helping to give hair volume and lift from the roots. Using dry shampoo between washes helps keep hair fresh and reduces the need for frequent washing, which is gentle on the scalp.
Choose dry shampoo powder instead of aerosol to avoid harmful chemicals like VOCs, butane and propane. Aerosols can irritate the eyes, nose and throat and cause headaches. Powder is healthier, gentler and better for both you and the environment.
FRESH UP YOUR HAIR WITH HAIR SERUM
After a workout, a good hair serum with rosemary can quickly refresh your hair. Mellow Mind's hair serum stimulates hair growth, moisturizes the scalp and balances oil production. Rosemary water and vitamin B5 keep the scalp healthy and the hair moisturized.
USE A NOURISHING CONDITIONER TO CARE FOR YOUR HAIR
Sweat and oil can leave your hair feeling flat and lifeless, especially after an intense workout. That’s why it’s important to use a good conditioner that both nourishes and strengthens your hair without weighing it down. Mellow Minds Conditioner Bar is a perfect choice for this purpose. It’s enriched with natural oils like broccoli seed oil, cocoa butter, and vitamin B5, which condition your hair and make it silky soft and easy to detangle.
The Conditioner Bar is also vegan, plastic-free and pH-balanced, making it sustainable and gentle on both hair and the environment. It is ideal for all hair types and requires no break-in period, making it convenient and easy to integrate into your hair care routine.
GOOD SCALP CARE ROUTINES
In addition to choosing the right products, a healthy scalp routine can also help reduce sweat and oily hair. Be sure to exfoliate your scalp regularly to remove dead skin cells and product buildup. A healthy scalp is key to healthy hair, and it can help reduce excess oil production.
