I used a crochet to tidy up my front dreadlocks and I think my edges are being effected by traction alopecia, I had a stinging pan and itchyness on the left side of my head and now I'm worried it's irriversible. Is there something I can do to recover? I've been told before jojoba oil or castor oil with coconut oil is good for you roots.
step 1 throw crochet hook in trash
step 2 use jojoba on the roots to loosen them up
step 3 massage the scalp in that area vigerously daily to get bloodflow to the scalp, usean oiu8l that stimulsates bloodflow i think pepermint will do it maybe cinimon look up essential oils that stimul.ate bloodflow to the skin/scalp
step 4 optional take biotin daily 15,000 mg a day
step 5 wait it will recover even if you only do steps 1 and maybe 2 as long as the roots loosen up and stay loose it will recover
for the time being avoid tight updos or pulling them back tight..or any tension on the scalp as long as the roots loosen it will be ok u have an issue yes but nothing that several months of letting them be wont recover
Okay, I've trashed the crochet needle. I forgotten I had this bottle of dreadlock shampoo, do you think it will help?
Thank you Soaring Eagle. 
i would not use any ofthose jamaican mango linme crap 1st off they are made for african textured hair but they (some) can cause such horoble buildup they turn blsack dreads grey to white many contain waxes and petroleum products even plastics
i have no idea why they are so popular except the "jamaican' and "rasta' branding
Okay, I'll toss that out too. I had it laying around my bathroom and remembered why I didn't used it again. I have Dr. Bronner's castil soap, and I also have bakin soda and essential oils too, Rosemary oil, lavender oil, eucalyptus oil, and tea tree oil. Would those be okay for now?

no toxic sulphates no harsh detergents
all the rest of the stuff in that was just to make it tingle not clean
yes
though baking soda will weaken the hair eventualy
and bronners is awesome but not if u have hard water if u got hard water it wil leave residue
It was tingly to the point it became irritable and flaky as if I dumped my head in leomonade. How long does shipping take to Australia?
it takes a lil bit like 2 weeks i tyhink they are shipped the next morn though
and yea the sulphates are skin iritants they cause sandruff psoriasis dermatitis even cancer well at least the sls does but its recomended to avoid all sulphates sulphides etc
they just make foam thats it but are toxic and iritate the skin
Okay, Thank you very much.
