What are you washing with? Greasy hair means your scalp is too acidic. If you're doing the BS/ACV wash, cut out the ACV for a while. The BS will raise your pH level and help dry out your hair. Once it stops being greasy, you can gradually add the ACV back into your routine

what are u washing with and how

how are we suposed to guess what your doing wrong when we dont know what your doing?

guessing game?

your rubbing your head with axle grease

your rolling in mud

your using jelly instead of water

your wearing a bathing cap to keep your hair dry

You should not use that shampoo anywhere near that often. Once or twice a year, if at all. It is toxic. It could not be good for your scalp. Get a good dread shampoo. Ismy opinion.

Ok. The neutrogena isn't good for locks. it's an anti residue shampoo. Anti residue is different from non residue. Anti ones strip oils away, but actually leave a residue of their own. That brand is actually very toxic and should not be used more than 2-4 times a year.
Rinse with cold water, not warm. cold water closes your pores and stops your scalp from producing as much oil of its own. I bet just switching to a cold rinse (as cold as you can stand) alone, will help with the problem. But also try switching shampoo. The ones from dreadlockshampoo.com really are the best. They leave no residue and work in all water types

ditchin it hair is still locking really fast , but im broke and don't care for BC and ACV rinse is there a way I can make my own all natural shampoo? also thanks

What about castille soap, like bronners, I know there is one for hard water too.
