How To Prevent Oily Scalp Throughout the Day?

Posted by Mary Shoufield on

An oily scalp can be frustrating. It makes your head look shiny, feels uncomfortable, and can affect how confident you feel—especially if you’ve had scalp micropigmentation (SMP). But oily skin isn’t something to fear. It’s something to manage.

Let’s find the reason as to why your scalp gets oily and what you can do to keep it under control all day long.

Why Does Your Scalp Get Oily?

Your scalp naturally produces oil. This oil, called sebum, helps protect your skin. But when your body makes too much of it, your scalp can start to look shiny or greasy. Factors like heat, humidity, genetics, sweat, and diet can make your scalp oilier than usual.

If you’ve recently had SMP, the shine can be more noticeable. Since SMP gives the appearance of a freshly shaved head, any extra oil makes the look seem artificial. The matte texture of natural shaved hair doesn’t reflect light the way bare, oily skin does.

Washing Isn’t Enough

Many people attempt to address this issue by washing their scalp more frequently. 

That might help for a few hours, but overwashing can dry out your skin and trigger more oil production.

You need a better approach that lasts beyond your morning shower.

 Don’t touch your head too often. Your fingers transfer oil to your scalp and make it worse.

The Shine Problem After SMP

After getting Scalp Micropigmentation, you’ll likely feel amazing. The confidence boost is real. But once that initial excitement fades, you’ll notice something others may not mention—the shine.

People with natural buzz cuts don’t have reflective scalps. Their follicles still create texture. But SMP-treated scalps can reflect light more easily, especially when oil builds up. That shine makes your scalp look more like skin than shaved hair. It can steal away the joy of SMP results if not managed properly.

Why Zero Shine Is the Ultimate Solution

This is where Zero Shine comes in. It’s made specifically for people who’ve had SMP and want their results to look as real as possible.

Zero Shine gives your scalp a matte finish that lasts up to 48 hours. It’s waterproof, so it stays on even in the pool. It also doubles as a natural moisturizer, so it doesn’t dry out your skin like other products might.

Unlike powders or sprays, Zero Shine is a specially formulated wax that’s designed to stay put, smooth out oily skin, and keep your scalp looking like a natural buzz cut—not a shiny dome.

Managing an oily scalp doesn’t mean scrubbing harder or washing more. It means using the right product to keep shine in check, especially after Scalp Micropigmentation.

If your SMP looked perfect on Day 1 but now reflects too much light, Zero Shine is your go-to. It’s long-lasting, waterproof, and safe for daily use. More importantly, it protects the look you worked hard to achieve.

Don’t let oil undo your confidence. Choose Zero Shine—and keep your SMP looking fresh, realistic, and matte all day long.
