Hot Oil Burns??!!

[Shawn]

Last night, after my Tae Bo class, I felt the need to wash my sweaty hair. I also felt the need to sleep in TCB Hydrating "Hot" Oil last night. The oil is not hot. It just has that name. I've seen where others on the board have used oil treatments overnight. In any case, when I woke up this morning to wash my hair, I noticed that my scalp was burning? Has this happened to anyone else? What is in that TCB stuff that causes this? Ouch!!!!

Can you post the ingredients please?

Some hot oils are self-heating. Could this be one of those?

SVT-- This one does not say "self-heating" nor did it feel that way when applied. I have used Luster's self-heating oil before and know what that feels like.

Thanks for posting the ingredients Shawn. I wonder why it burned. Maybe you could use something soothing like an aloe vera product to give your scalp some relief.

Thanks Allandra. I'll give the aloe vera a try (assuming I can find some today).

Sounds like you may be allergic to one or more of the ingredients. I had a similar problem whenever I would use one of those Hot Six oils. The aloe vear gel as a skin soother may help ease the burning and soothe your skin. I hope you feel better.
