oily hair question

how exactly do i know whether my oilyness of my scalp is well controlled?I'm sure it will definitely get oily sooner or later but usually how long before it gets oily would a good control be?If my hair gets oily after a few hours then I would consider that bad control.Thanks!

I've read from several sources that the oily scalps sebum is slightly different as it is thicker and greasier.This makes it not so ideal.The thick sebum will clog the hair follicles causing sebum plugs to appear.The sebum plugs strangles the hair follicles preventing optimal nutrition absorption.Thats why most balding problems are caused by an oily scalp especially men maybe because they don't really care about their hair :).The problem will mostly appear if you don't take care of an oily scalp the correct way which means washing daily with a gentle shampoo(daily MOSTURISINGdeepcleansing is more ideal) or an oily shampoo if you don't washed daily.Most oily hair problems might not be so apparent to any hair texture besides coarse hair.My hair still feels a bit dry although it is oily.Thats why oily scalps sebum has been known to function as a lubricant rather then a mosturiser.Oh yes, a correct diet will also help especially zinc.Thats why I see lettuce (I'm not kidding)in my oily skin toner.But I think if you take care of it correctly you should be fine even though the scalp stays slightly oily.Just curous can you tell me what products you used?Hope that helps.:)ps.Most of this information I got it from elsewhere.I can't really prove it although alot of my seniors are balding.
