Try aadding some essential oils to your baking soda rinse, they smell really lovely and help the balance of everything... as far as the greasyness goes, hopefully some one else will be able to help you there... the only thing I do know is that over time your scalp will produce less oil as it is washed and scrubbed less frequently. Your head sort of uses a supply and demand and when we wash away the natural oils from our scalp, it feels the need to produce more.

washing daily makes u greasy strip oils away and the scalp panics and produces oils
whats the smell like washing daily may not let it dry enough so could be mildew? if its more a dirty scalp smell then dont worry
thyme added will slowly reduce oil productiion
thyme as an oil or tea
u can spray on a thyme tea and smell like pizza or somethihf awhile as it gets less oily
tip
baking soda is alkaline
acv acidic
normal hairs acidic slightly oily hairs more acidic
so u can try baking soda with very lil acv after or even none temporarily you dont want to make it too alkaline i=or u get dry and itchy but ocasionaly skipping the acv will slowly reduce theoiliness and when u do do acv make it lil extra wak and rinse imediately untill your hairs nmore normal to dry then ballance it out to a ph more like normal hair

u can steep thyme 20 min then spray on or add to the bs wash
vinager will degrease you but being acidic will increase4 oiul production too g=just like degreasing increases grease
you want to leave some oils that are healthy but have those oils be clean adding sea salt is a great option and maybe do acv every otherwash and weak till you start getting less oily
as u stretch it to washing very 3 or even 4 days yiu should see less oils produced

Well I don't think drying is an issue yet because I
Dont have to many dreads yet it's been a verrrryyy slow process I'm
Doing it natural. The smell I think is just like dirty scalp and hair Probably mostly from the grease I guess. Would I just boil the Thyme and soak it in water and poor that on my hair? Will the acv like degrease my hair?
