[quote=Anonymous]Some possibilities - Over winter vacation, she might want to try no-poo for a little while, to get things calmed down. She can use a dry shampoo, rice powder, etc. to control surface oil while she tries to get the scalp normalized. Lush's BIG shampoo is really good with scalp schmutz, but it's stripping. Alba and others make a shampoo with fruit acids that cleans up the scalp. In terms of her diet - bad carb metabolism can make skin and scalp oil gross. She could try going paleo for a while, eating little or no sugar/refined carbs, lots of green veg and focusing on monounsaturated fats (olive, etc.) and saturated fats. Many people have normalized skin oils and less BO on paleo.[/quote]
