Quick update on the quest for the source of my itchy scalp. I think I have some kind of infection and am now using tea tree oil to try to clear it up. For the moment, it seems to be working.

  • I also have EXTREME itchy scalp! Banging my head against the wall itch! What is your ratio for tea tree oil to olive oil? Is it still helping?  Thanks!

  • @Raijay888 Sorry I don't have precise measures to share with you. I don't use tons of TTO. Maybe a ratio of one part TTO to 10 parts EVOO-- by no means an exact science. As my locs matured, I found that often my scalp itch was due to insufficient rinsing! I discovered that obsessive rinsing (and gently wringing water through length of locs) really helped. My skin is rather sensitive and the slightest amount of shampoo residue becomes a major irritant. Hope this helps. -N

  • you got a good personality and love them locks are really shiny - I am one day one ..just twisted mine and do you know what i need to do to keep the parts and keep them seperated... and how soon before I can wash them ... thanks!?! Oh and what do you do for a living that allows you to travel to Cambodia?

  • @zuwizzle Hey ZW: Thanks for your questions. Just for you, I posted a video response! Good luck with your locs! -NitzB

  • Thank you for this. I'd shampooed my locs but my scalp still itched like crazy. I took your suggestion and the tea tree oil worked right away. Ahhhh relief! Thanks again.

  • @decor8mylife

    Glad to be of service!

  • LOL you have problems chick. Your locks look good though. See ya next month.

  • I'm itching terribly which is normal for me after 2 weeks.. the gel is making it even worse though, Olive oil has helped, I'm out of Sulfur 8.. Think I will get some Tea Tree Oil before the finger nails scratch my scalp to the bone. :) gl
