Yes, oil on your scalp sounds counterintuitive. But dry skin craves fat. Coconut oil is a superstar here. Warm a tiny bit in your hands, massage it in, and let it sit for 15 minutes. Then wash with that gentle shampoo.
Other genius options: jojoba oil (mimics your scalp’s natural oil) or argan oil (fancy but effective). Don’t use olive oil—unless you’re making a salad dressing. Your scalp is not a crouton.
Funny image: Imagine a tiny chef sautéing your head. Don’t do that. Just a light, loving massage. Rinse thoroughly. Greasy hair is not a good look unless you’re going for “I just washed a sheep.”
