The Truth Behind Dry and Oily Hair

Struggling with dry ends or greasy roots? It’s time to understand what your scalp is telling you.

Hair health starts at the scalp, and this blog dives deep into the real causes of dry and oily hair—two common but misunderstood conditions. Learn how to recognize the signs and build a personalized routine that restores balance and beauty to your hair.

Dry Hair & Scalp

Dryness is often caused by dehydration, heat styling, coloring, environmental exposure, or naturally dry scalp conditions.

Common Signs:

• Flaky, tight scalp

• Frizz, dullness, breakage

• Itching or sensitivity

Key Tips:

• Use sulfate-free shampoos

• Hydrate weekly with a deep mask + natural oils (coconut, jojoba, argan)

• Avoid hot tools or always use a heat protectant

Rocco Tip: Mix a nourishing mask with drops of serum and leave overnight for deep hydration.

Oily Scalp & Hair

Oily roots are usually caused by excess sebum production—not dirty hair! Overwashing, heavy products, or poor rinsing habits can make things worse.

Common Signs:

• Greasy roots and flat hair

• Itchy scalp or clogged pores

• Dull appearance and frequent buildup

Key Tips:

• Wash every 2–3 days, not daily

• Use dry shampoo between washes

• Incorporate scalp exfoliators biweekly

• Clarifying shampoos once a week max
