Maybe its due to the new growth that coming in? Sorry but you know what that has been happening to me too lol I have a relaxer scheduled for Saturday  ------------- http://public.fotki.com/blackhoney112/hair_album/101505_.html - Hair album pw:Romeo |

| culd it be that the new growth bunches up and rubs against the scalp |

I keep hearing about this but I do not remember this ever happening to me. However, I do remember that when my scalp began to itch too much my hair was usually greasy/oily and meant it was time for a wash to clean up the product build up.------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |
