Hi fellow dreadheads.So, i've had my dreads for about a year now and i Think they look Nice, but they're itching a lot, which have caused me to scratch my scalp so much it started to bleed a little. At first i thought i might have lice, so i started usling all kinds of licekilling cures bur nothing has seemed to help. So i started to notice that i had a lot of dandruff, and at that time, i had just used normal neutral shampoo, so i thought that maybe the shampoo had left some residue in my dreads causing dandruff and because of that the bad itch, but even though i've been using a special dreadlock shampoo, designed to Remove dandruff and residue, nothing have helped. The itch is so bad that im considering cutting them off. Doris anyone know what this might be, and what do you do about it?Cil

My new book Ban The Taboo Vol 1
was wax ever used even once? do u use a sea salt spray or any other products
im guessing your using dhhq shampoo wich is not a dreadlocks shampoo its a hunting shampoo sold as a dread shampoo thats why its scentless
its also very toxic causes dandruff psoriasis dermatitis and cancer
you can try the baking soda deep cleanse with teateee and rosemary or the dreadlockshampoo
for dandruff
no hot water
teatree (lil bit) rosemary (lot more)
pepermint (optional for itch)

bottle spray with tea tree, lavander, and pepermint essential oils does the trick for me. It leaves my scalp feeling refreshed for a logn while.I use it everyday now.
