Hello,
The best shampoos for oily hair we have reviewed contain Zinc PCA. Zinc PCA is a complex that is known to help regulate the sebaceous glands, thereby reducing oil production.You can choose any mild shampoo which may contain Zinc PCA but choose a clear one and without conditioner.For body creams,choose any light moisturizing cream containing aloe vera or menthol. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

Hello,
Although perspiration is basically odorless, it can take on an unpleasant smell when it comes into contact with bacteria on your skin. Most often, it's the bacterial breakdown of apocrine sweat that causes a strong odor. Take regular baths and wear loose cotton clothes.Pls avoid taking heavy fatty meal and eat nutritious,healthy food. There is no medical condition as such which causes smelling or oiliness of the hair.I would suggest you to clean your hair frequently with a mild shampoo.Also you can shampoo twice during each wash and apply shampoo on the scalp without piling the hair on top.

If the symptoms persist then pls consult a dermatologist.
I hope that helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
