Hiya! Itz me again. Ever since I started straightening my hair, my scalp has been EXTREMELY dry and flaky and itchy. I'm not sure if my scalp is not used to it or what. I can't even brush out my hair without a bunch of patches of scalp falling onto my bathroom counter(EW!). It's disgusting, unattractive, and really annoying. Should I just wait it out or is there a good product(specifically for black hair is preferred) that I can use for it. Thanks!

Not sure this will help but I've always had an itchy scalp. A couple years now I've been using pure castor oil mixed with extra virgin olive oil and I oil my scalp once a week and a sometimes a couple times depending on the state of my hair. You can try and see if it works for you, or look into others like coconut oil, macadamia nut oil, grapeseed etc.
@ Naila i'm about to go watch your vids I'm interested to see how you use sage
