Just took out my weave and my scalp is a flaky, built up mess..best approach?

So I combed it out and am now saturated with LTR and Olive oil and will wash in the morning. But there is so much build up (7 weeks of being weaved up plus I have a very dry scalp anyway)what can I wash with to get rid of it? Will ACV on the scalp plus regular shampoo do the trick or does anyone have some other products that will get rid of this?

hmmmm. i definitely think the acv rinse is a good idea. maybe a gentle scalp scrub would help too. i've seen good recipes here on the board. i would definitely say take a gentle approach to removing the buildup.

I second clarifying. I took my kinky twist down after about 8 weeks and had a similar reaction. Build up and dry scalp. I clarified with ACV, hot oil treatment with using EVOO, light protein, and then deep conditioned with a moisturizing conditioner ei Cream of Nature, KeraCare Humecto, and finished up with a leave-in
