Latest issue: SUPER DRYNESS!

[Wishin4BSL]

Hello again ladies. I'm having a big problem all of a sudden. My hair is soft and moisturized, but my scalp is REALLY dry and flaky! I recently changed my regimen so that I deep condition every week and take MSM powder daily. My only new product is the Silk Elements Moisturizing Treatment. The things that I haven't changed are moisturizing and sealing daily with my trusty NTM leave-in and Africa's Best Herbal Oil and shampooing weekly with Redken Allsoft. Lately I feel like I need to clarify (always NTM anti-residue...works like a charm) weekly! What do you all think the problem could be? Should I clarify or what? BTW, I can't co-wash because it just makes my scalp REALLY itchy. Help! TIA!

I am having the same problem. Its like all of a sudden. I plain to put WGO on my scape. Is this a good idea?

Try oiling with Amla or Coconut oil overnight before washing or shampooing. This might help. I have Super Dry hair as well and that works for me! I have been doing this 1 - 2x per week.

My hair is moisturized, but the scalp is dry. Do you applu Alma to the scalp?

I use WGO on my scalp only. I have no problems.

I think I'm going back to WGO too. I used to use it and it was the only oil that didn't make my scalp itch.

NTM anti-residue??? I didn't know NTM had a clarifying shampoo? I was using Aloe Rid, but I'd loooove to have something cheaper.

Also, I love WGO for my scalp. I apply a light coating every few days.

Yes, apply it to the scalp and you can just concentrate on that but getting it on your hair surely wouldn't hurt! Massage it in all over the scalp and let it sit overnight with a plastic cap to protect your pillows. Then shampoo. Do it 2-3 times a week and see how that helps.

My scalp was acting up... But I really don't even know how I helped it! I've been oiling more, but I guess I'm not too much help!

Drink more more much more water.

You say you added a new product - the Silk Elements treatment. Maybe your scalp doesn't like one of the ingredients in there? Also, doesn't that contain mineral oil and cones? Maybe those are building up on your scalp. Just a guess.:scratchch

Oiling your scalp and massaging it really well while shampooing should help.
