Ok. I just got my sew-in on Thursday last week. And I'm itching under this thing like CRAZY. (I should also add that I had a run-in with acetone a couple weeks ago and might have burnt my scalp a bit so some itching maybe due to that I don't know anymore i just want it to STOP)
Now, I haven't had a sewin in a while and I do remember it itching in the past. . . And nothing helped. Also I used to get micro braids and those itched also so I've bought that braid spray blah blah stuff in the past and the sulfur 8 spray and they didn't really help. I tried MTG not so much help with the itching.
I just got Organic (by African Pride) Itch Stuff. http://www.allurebeautysupply.com/AFRICAS-BEST-ORGANICS-Itch-Relief_p_131-443.html" rel="no follow - http://www.allurebeautysupply.com/AFRICAS-BEST-ORGANICS-Itch-Relief_p_131-443.html And while the ingredients seem really amazing -- like it would make a great pre-poo (seriously) Its NOT HELPING THE ITCH.
Any ideas? I'm seriously using a letter opener at my desk at work and poking under my weave with it. Needless to say at my conservative law firm I'm getting some looks.
Please Help! Please. ------------- BC 12.3.06; ESQ c'est moi! Current HG Flaxseed Gel; divaremy.com! DIVA |

| Did you wash the weave before installing it cos you might be allergic to whatever they process the hair in. No it too late now that the hair has been installed just thought you might want to consider washing any hair you want installed first to see if that makes a different. I use Medicated Better Braids Spray whihc has been good to me. I hope you find some solution to you problems soon though cos theres nothing worst than itching all the time. |

The truth is weaves itch! The scalp is covered and a lot of times dry and think about the friction from the tracks on the scalp,but guess what ? I will always love my weaves and I'll just have to keep something pointy on hand! ------------- la flaca bela(CGW) http://public |

Seriously I am a product junky so i keep thinking let me buy another one this one will work. . . BUT THEY NEVER DOOOOOO

I use the Parnevu braid spray. It has salicate acid and treat tree oil which help with the itching. I was dandruff prone even before I got a weave. I know it says braid spray but all sew ins are are braids with weaves sewn on 'em. I spray in between the parts and also on the hair...it looks so silky and well conditioned now. My scalp also feels better. I am do for a wash this weekend but this spray will tide me over until I can do it. ------------- |

i had the exact same problem. and it drove me mad because i workout ALOT and i thought that the weave was gonna have to go.
somethingnew helped me with this formula. she takes a spray bottle and puts witch hazel and water (not sure of her exact specs but i use 3/4 witch hazel and 1/4 water to dilute. i added a little jasmine essential oil for smell, but that's optional.) she told me to keep it in the frig so it is cool on your scalp when i apply.
i spray it on my scalp daily and it works. but the sea breeze is also good. i did that first because i did not have witch hazel on hand the night i got the information and i was itching like crazy. i just squirted the sea breeze right into my tracks and the itching stopped immediately. i washed my hair right after though becuase i was scared that the sea breeze would dry my hair out. it was fine when i took it out this last install. (this is my second weave. i have a partial.)
the witch hazel works wonders. as a matter of fact, i just finished working out and i just did sprayed some on.
my next bottle is going to have a couple of drops of tea tree oil as an antiseptic.
i'll let yall know how it works out.

I too workout a whole lot...and it was causing my weave to itch a whole lot...and I mean unbearable at some points - - - - Scalp Relief Antiseptic as advised by Diva and it works wonders. However, I add a few drops of concentrated tea tree oil that I purchase from a natural foods market here in DC (Whole Foods, Wild Oats). My dermatologist believes that the CVS, Walmart, BSS brands of tea tree oil may not give u the bang for ur buck. They're usually dilluted with a bunch of other chemicals, products. - - Adding drops of tea tree oil not only helps with itch, but smell and prevents any buildup of bacteria and/or fungi in the scalp. Overly scratching your scalp or digging in it with a pointy object is theeeee worst thing you can do for your hair. (according to my dermatologist). It’s as if you are opening the door wider for whatever is already irritating your scalp and causing it to itch. I add a few drops of the tea tree oil to all of the products I use on my scalp. Shampoo, conditioners and hair oils for my scalp. It helps to keep the soothing and cooling process going!
Some can't stand the smell, but I love it. And it keeps my scalp feeling refreshed! (in addition to reducing the risk of bacteria or fungi forming;)
Also my doc said because the scalp is so sensitive and the skin layers are a bit more thin...sea breeze could possibly generate burning sores and/or dry the root of the hair causing it to break in half.
I tried Witch Hazel before buying the Kimble Product, and the Witch Hazel did nothing for me...but all scalps have personalities of their own I guess.

To stop my "itichies" I have been using braid spray to which I have added some concentrated tea tree oil. I must say that the braid spray alone only temporarily soothes my scalp, but after adding the tea tree oil to the spray I instantly can spell R-E-L-I-E-F. I have used Sea Breeze to help control my dandruff, but it doesn't do much for my itching. I have also used Kera Kare's Glossifier. The Glossifier moisturizes my scalp and also helps keep the itching to a minimum. ------------- Psalm 55:22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. |

I ordered the kimble scalp spray 3 weeks ago and haven't gotten it. No response from emails and no customer service number on the website either. This was ordered before the holiday rush it doesn't take UPS that long to ship anywhere. I think I'm gonna have Bank of America snatch that money back... oh I just found a number that is not customer service, but I'm gonna call and complain anyway  ------------- http://public.fotki.com/azgurl/ |

My natural hair is short so the lady who braided my hair added that bulk braid hair to the cornrows and EVERYWHERE that the braid hair touches my scalp feels like ants are attacking me.

Loved,
synthetic hair can be very itchy and irritating to the scalp, it has lots of alkaline in it. When I get weaves and a stylist wants to use synthetic in the cornrow as reinforcment, I like to bring my own that I de-alkalize first. I found this on the net, a while ago and use this method on synthetic hair.
Fill your sink with hot tap water, and add 1 cup apple cider vinegar to the water. Put the hair in the vinegar water solution for 10 mins. Remove the hair and shake out the excess water. Take a spray bottle and mix a combination of water and Infusium 23 leave in. Spray it on the synthetic hair first, then use your braid sheen spray and do the same. Let it dry for a few hours. Your fake hair will feel like your own hair once you're ready to use it. ------------- |

It is an awful, awful feeling. I now insist thay only human hair is used in my cornrows because the synthetic can be too itchy.I just used some HH from a BSS that I hadn't used. Since doing that--NO ITCHING!!!
My philosopy is that if I'm putting wonderful hair on top, then I should put wonderful hair underneath, too I (we all) deserve it!!
