Shampoo Free Method Causing Side Effects on Scalp
Shampoo Free Method Causing Side Effects on ScalpPosted By Stacey (Grand Blanc, Mi) on 12/01/2016
I started the No Poo method 5 months ago and my husband started complaining about a musky smell from my hair. So I tried many of the wrong things including scented pure Castile soap. After second use I developed burning scalp, hot to the touch that felt dry and itches terribly. I have applied aloe with lavender oil to was the burning. Last night I applied tea tree oil with olive oil and lavender and left it on over night. I washed my hair in the morning and the burning and itching returned. So tonight I washed my hair with borax then followed with ACV and water let it dry and then applied more olive oil with lavender and tea tree oil. My scalp still feels irritated and itchy and I plan on washing again with borax in the morning. Am I doing the right thing? How often and how long should I wash with borax and water? I'm using 2tbs to two cups of water of borax and 1 part ACV to 10 parts water.
