Maybe it's my mind...but i started taking the liquid form of flaxseed oil recently and my hair seems to get ?

Question

greasier faster! Can it be the oil? Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Answer 1

I think it's probably in your mind...or something else you're doing differently. Although, over a long period of time - maybe 3 months - flax seed can improve the condition of skin and hair that is exceptionally dry. You probably shouldn't take more than a tablespoon per day.

Oily hair can be caused by hormone fluxuations. Try using a mint tea as the final rinse
