you can get a waterless shampoo from the bss and try that- to get in between then roots- i would suggest using a toothbrush along with the waterless shampoo. Hope this helps. Or you other option is to moisturize as usual and shampoo/condition weekly(just be extra gentle).

This is just a suggestion...SeaBreeze or witch hazel might clean your scalp well.  I've used SeaBreeze before when I had cornrows and it worked good.  It should help with any build up since it's used to clean the pores.
