The nape of my neck has been problematic as long as I can remember. When I was a child, I had severe itching in that area that got so bad, I ended up scratching away my hair almost halfway up my head. I didn't have dandruff or any other disorder that I know of, although I had a troubled childhood, so stress may have been a factor. A old time pharmacist then recommended cod liver pills, which worked like a charm for the itching.
But after that my nape never grew any substantial length. The hairs break off short. Even when my hair was natural, (although I wasn't natural for very long)that area still broke off short. I still have occasional itching but no where near as bad as it used to be. I'm not sure what do about it except stop relaxing that area alltogether for a few months. Could this be over processing? I use super, but my hair is so resistant and coarse, using a regular is like using mild for me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
