The solution
Sebum acts as a natural conditioner and helps to keep your hair soft, detangled and protected form environmental and physical assaults, so don't over wash the hair and strip your scalp of its natural oils. That said, if sebum, product build-up and dead skin cells accumulate on the scalp, they serve as food for bacteria which clog hair follicles and disrupt natural hair growth (so go easy on that dry shampoo).
