itchy sore scalp
aklternate then the backing sida does exfoliate and remove dread skin so that maybe why are u using the liquid or bar the liquid helps young dreads dread faster by-=ut the bar is luxurios the clay gets u very clean and the bear moisturizes dry scalp
try the baking soda weekly maybe
once the scalp settles down u can slowly transition to full time shampoo
but once tge scals a mess u will have to treat it for a bu=it and the oils are really what u need to have a lasting effect

it could be that your allergic to one of the ingredients in the soap. maybe go back to bs washes and see if that remedies it.

If you're scratching that much, you're creating scabs. That's probably adding to the itch. scabs itch when they heal. Get a little spray bottle and fill it with pure water, if you can't get the oils (the oils would be much better, but I understand if you can't). Put the bottle in the fridge. That'll chill it down so when you spray your head, it'll be a nice cool soothing feeling. It probably won't work when you put oils in, because oils tend to coagulate in cold temps, but for plain water it's perfect.
I just though of it. You know what would also help... Get a second spray bottle and again fill it with pure water, but mix a little sea salt into this one. A little while before you shower, spray your scalp with this mixture. It'll suck a lot for a few seconds because salt on wounds is never fun, but it does help clean them and sanitize them. When you wash, rinse really well. get all the salt out. You'll feel much better. the salt will clean the sores and leave your head feeling kind of tingly, but not so itchy. Do this ever time you wash for a week or so. By the end, the itchies will be gone and the scabs will be healing right along.
Stick with your locks. We've all been through itchy phases. It's part of the process. They do end
