Oil that makes your hair less greasy

AFTER years of being told by the beauty industry to do everything in our power to avoid greasy hair, rubbing oil through your locks doesn’t seem to make sense.

But, according to hairdresser Tabitha James Kraan, that’s exactly what we should do for a glossy, bouncy mane.

Kraan says that regular applications of hair oil not only strengthen the hair shaft and add shine, but also ‘trick’ over-active sebaceous glands in the scalp into thinking their work is done — leading to less greasy hair in the future. Her Scented Organic Hair Oil, £38, from
