Why is my scalp sore everytime I bun?

[Fine 4s]

Only in the crown area (that' the middle right?). What's up with that? Anyone experience this and have any suggestions on how to fix this?

The bun is not tight and not detangled in the middle (or any one area really). I do sleep with my hair bunned. I don't take it down at night. I'm natural with type 4 hair.

It usually happens around the 4-5 day of wearing a bun...

Same thing is happening to me. I THINK with me its because I tend to wet my hair before bunning, then when it dries the gel makes my hair hard and I get a headache.

I didn't put any gel on my hair just Redken butter blend. I re-apply every morning and put a scarf as I ride to work.

The front, sides and back perfectly okay. But touch that middle top part and OUCH!

Wow, I don't know I was thinking maybe the bun was too tight. Other than that I'm not sure.. Sorry couldn't be more help
