This Itchiness is driving me nuts...

It has been a week since my Sisterlocks were installed.  I absolutely LOVE the whole-jump out of bed, shake my hair and go-thing I've got going on.  It is the greatest.  No more rinsing my hair in the shower and applying products, combing/detangling/picking for ever, then going. This feeling of freedom is a new thing, a powerful thing.  I wanna run out and buy a whole knew wardrobe to go with my new hair...

The itchiness...not so great.  I ran out and got some Witch Hazel (I didn't know they still sold it) and some Sea Breeze.  We will see which one works better.  My consultant recommends the Witch Hazel because the alcohol content in Sea Breeze is high.

What have you other Sisterlockers done to fight the itchies?  My consultant says to stay away from water for the time being (to avoid slippage), and I am following her instructions. 

My goal right now is to avoid scratching my scalp.  I keep catching myself in mid-reach. 

What is a sister to do?

  1. Congrats on getting sisterlocks. You ae going to love them!!! :D

    I just dealt with the itches because I have fine loose textured hair and was too afraid to add any type product because I had a tough time keeping my locks from unraveling. Hang in there the itches will pass :)
