Are you washing with baking soda at all, or what are you using? At the end of your shower are you rinsing your head with as cold water as you can take?, that will help if you do this each time.
At the top of the site is the dreaducation tab, click that & then click the dread maintenance. There is a section on how to clean dreads. At the bottom is how to cleanse cleanse, click that one for your info.
You will be using Apple Cider Vinegar, not white vinegar
You're only using 1-2 capfuls of ACV with 5 cups water. If you hate vinegar, then don't drink it.
You can scent your apple cider vinegar with rosemary, tea tree and peppermint essential oils. For newly forming dreads, just use a few drops of each. These oils are great for itchy scalps. The ACV balances the PH in the hair & conditions it, you need this when using baking soda, unless you have very oily hair.
Use the search bar at the top of the site & type in itchy scalp. You'll get lots to read. Good Luck
Heart-wrenching story. Those dread thieves in South Africa did not steal anything that can be replaced, they stole this mans being, they stole a huge part of who he is, they stole his identity and they dented his soul, and the list goes on. I can't imagine the feeling of being mugged for lovingly grown 10 year old locks. At least those assholes did not steal his life & kill him.

I always though dread extensions were stupid, and I still do. After reading this article though, I realized they also, are evil! http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/429544/20130130/hair-today-gone-t...
Here is a previous posting I found for you, hope it helps:
yes the products work wonderfully but heres the thing about extentions u kinda need estabk]lished dreads to anchor them onto and they also will feel like extentions not connected to you like yor real dreads
another option is to do a hair wrap on a dread close to the crown, then extend the wrap a ways past the en of the dread so its long enough to wrap around the dreads
once your dreads are more mature u can comb out a couple inches of the ends fraying them out then push the 2 ends togrther till the dresed parts meat and the loose hairs mesh togetger extending on either sde over the dreaded parts then wrap about 4 inches an inch above and below the loose hairs till they fuse

Have fun. Just before you go in the water, shower and get your hair nice and soaked. At the end of your fun time shower all that chlorine out really well. Here's a tip for you: always use a towel the same colour as your hair, that way any towel lint that goes in your hair will not be noticed. 
Yep, what ever the size of the section where it meets the scalp will be the size of the dread. A girl does want to look a certain way for herself, good luck with everything. Peace
