What are you using in your hair?

 

[~~HoneyComb~~]

Could it be mildew, due to the fact that you're washing every night and it's not completely drying?

what kind of odor?

Baking Soda should work

 

[long hair dont care]

ok well i air dry at night befor it goes up in a bun i dont use anything on my scalp as i said befor it used to be realy bad when i was young but i havent smelt it in a while it its just a head odor could it be hormones???

 

[Irresistible]

I dont know but Ive never heard of hormones causing a scalp odor

if its fungal you could try Tea Tree Oil too or do a with hazel rinse or baking Soda

any of those or all should rectify it

Do some research on coconut oil....i have read is great for the scalp. to make it healthy

do you ever have flakes or dandruff?
It could be yeast on your scalp.

Do you sweat a lot?

I agree with the other ladies, maybe it's fungus. Also make sure you are thoroughly rinsing your scalp.

That happened to me before I was diagnosed with lupus because I had really bad night sweats, especially in my scalp. It had nothing to do with me going to bed with wet hair (it happened with dry hair too) but with what was coming out of my pores.

You should evaluate your health. It could just be that it's too hot in your room at night so you're sweating or something like that.

Most likey fungus......use a sulfur bar soap. I think the web site is stinkyscalp.com HTH

 

[SimpleKomplexity]

Maybe check out MN since it gets rid of fungus. It sounds like some kind of bacteria or fungus growing to me

Be safe and see your doctor.

Ha, I started a similar thread not too long ago, lol. My hair does the same thing, so I have to wash it once a week. I usually start to smell it 4 days after I wash. It isn't fungus, it's sebum. It's possible that your hair produces a lot more sebum than normal...
