Question

Post Body

Hi! I've started my loc journey exactly 3 weeks ago. Im starting to get a little build up on my scalp and my hair is starting to smell a bit cus I sweat in my hair a lot even before deciding to lock up. The woman who started my locs told me that I can use dry shampoo until i can wash my hair in 2 months but im really not a fan of that. Seems like that would leave a residue or flakes. I cant wash my hair because its too soon. I get a retwist in 3 wks and then 1 month after is the 1st wash. Any suggestions until then? Thanks!
