Blotting Sheets or Paper Towels

Blotting sheets or tissues can be used to absorb excess oil from your scalp. Gently press the sheets or paper towels onto your roots and allow them to soak up the oil.

Cold Water Rinse

If you have access to cold water, rinsing your hair with it can help temporarily reduce oil production. Cold water can constrict the scalp's blood vessels and reduce oil secretion.
