itchy haid!

[LadyRaider]

I'm trying to cut back to washing my hair once a week instead of twice a week. I am trying to cut back on manipulation.

But long about 3 days after I wash, my scalp gets itchy.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Are you using a sulfate free poo?

If so, you might want to also try putting oil on your scalp with an applicator bottle along with your DC. Most of the oil is rinsed away when you wash out the DC, but it helps keep my scalp supple and moist. I think of it as DCing my scalp.

Thank you! I usually use a sulfate free shampoo, but this week I clarified and the itching is worse! So I will definitely try the oil idea. Thanks so much!

Try Tea Tree Oil or Peppermint Oil, with the Peppermint You must use a carrier Oil, but they are both stimulating, as for the Tea Tree it is also Anti-Microbial! HTH!
