>>8670533I can try? My hair is pretty dense so it'll be pretty hard to only wash my scalp with shampoo.... Serum? Oil? Like tea tree oil or something? Yeah, people recommend it but as I said, I'm in trial and error mode and somethings that do wonders for the majority are shit for my hair (i.e. coconut oil, I only use it for my skin now)
>>8670802>but are you really washing your hair less often than once a week? Do you at least rinse with water sometime during the week?Actually I just stopped doing that these past two weeks. I mentioned I have 4bc hair, therefore I keep it in protective styles (braids, twists, cornrows, updos, ext), and if I wet my hair the style gets flagged out and frizzy. A one week style looking a month old basically.
But what I used to do is wet hair in the shower, apply diluted conditioner and shampoo, and rinse. After I would add an oil to the scalp & keep in moisture and move on with my day. (then the next weekend I actually wash) Works for a little while, but by later that night my scalp would be hard and dry again.
I would definitely start again after this Sunday's wash day though. This little experience I had trying not to wash was terrible.
>>8670807Also yes, I recently cut out eggs from my diet (one of my little allergens). I'm going to try to go a month or two without it to see how things go. Not too sure if I have another hidden allergy I just need to get checked for though.
So far the dryness in my skin has cleared up a bit so there is that.
But I have noticed I recently bought Jamaican Black Castor Oil and my scalp is dryer than usual (my hair is perfectly fine though). I'll try again these next two weeks, and probably cut it out if I'm noticing the same thing.
