Greasy hair can be a
bit of a faff. I know this. As a firsthand sufferer of oily roots, I understand (all too well) the frustration that comes with having to shampoo your hair every god damn day. Aaand don't even get me started on the the moment of pure panic brought on by realising your dry
shampoo is about to run out...
If you've found yourself on this page, chances are, you know exactly what I'm talking about. So hopefully the next 12 slides will bring you a little relief from the oily hair prison you've found yourself in...
Yup, I've tested and reviewed the most effective shampoos for greasy hair in the UK, to bring you a definitive ranking of the very best.
From the budget-friendly OGX Tea Tree Mint Shampoo, which helps target oil production by rebalancing the scalp whilst hydrating hair. It's perfect for thicker hair types, that don't want to be stripped of moisture, but still need a boost of freshness.
Then there's the classic Bumble & Bumble Sunday Shampoo, which is the ultimate detox for greasy hair. It will blitz your locks of ALL build up (from pollutants to excess oil, and hard water to styling products) leaving it feeling light and clean. Seriously, if you want a shampoo that packs a punch, this is it.
So whatever your budget and however oily your scalp is, there's a shampoo out there to make your hair happy, trust me.
