For the ladies who Sea Breeze their scalps...

[Shatani]

couple of question....

first, i went to get seabreeze, but i saw that witch hazel was on sale and was around $3 less than the sea breeze...they are pretty much the same thing right??

and second. how do you apply it?? do you do the cotton swab/Q-tip thing, or do you use a spray bottle or some other type of applicator???

and also, if this gets on my actual hair, will bad things happen, or is it fine??

TIA!

I'm interested as well--I would be afraid to put astringent on my scalp because I would be afraid it would get on my hair and make it dry. I guess if you moisturize your hair first any sea breeze/witch hazel that gets on it won't totally strip the hair

I was considering that too. After much research I've decided not to wash my hair every single day. Considering I work out everyday, I need something that'll clean my scalp. The only thing I can suggest is using something skinney to apply it being careful not to get it on the hair. If a tiny bit gets on the hair, it shouldn't dry it out too badly.

<font color="purple">Black Cardinal, Shantini, I use either Sea Breeze or Witch Hazel to clean my scalp while wearing my braids. You can use a Q-Tip and dip it in or, I would rather use a cotton ball and saturate it with either the above. Apply only to the scalp, and not your hair (FYI: Sea Breeze has alcohol and it can dry out your hair). You'll love that tingling affect knowing that your scalp is clean and refreshed. Glad to help.

If a little happens to get on your hair, as long as you moisturize afterward, you should be okay. Now, if a lot gets on your hair then, yes I would say wash.

Not sure about witch hazel, but I normally use sea breeze, I part through hair, and apply sea breeze w/ a cotton ball then after I have applied throughout my entire head, I apply cholesterol and plastic cap, sit under dryer for 15 - 20 mins, and rinse out and proceed with leave in conditioner etc..... but I do shampoo 1st, I noticed when I had oil buildup b//c my scalp would absorb the oil it worked and also stimulated the natural sebum oils to produce....
