Truly 4C: HELP! Suggestions for Itchy, Smelly Scalp?
I have been STRUGGLING for years with a scalp that gets smelly after a few days. I have to wash my hair every 2-5 days. Has anyone had this problem and fixed it?

So, I went to my dermatologist and he explained it to me. I’ll post a video soon but it’s the smell of scalp. My husband describes the progression like: first it smells like scalp, then sweat, then sulfur 🤣. For me it reminds me of a fungal smell.

Also, I love using an apple cider vinegar rinse after a wash day, that’s the only thing that really worked for me. 🥺 hope you figure it out, let us know what the dermatologist says!

Thanks! Will do
Hope you get to the root cause of the issue! In the meanhwile, have you considered dry shampoos? Easy to use + you can extend the time between washes and mask the natural odor.

Coming back on here to say: YES! I tried a dry shampoo! It wasn’t bad. It didn’t stop the itching but the smell was nice! I posted a video about using it and glycolic acid which has been a game changer for me!!
Have you tried nizoral? My dermatologist recommended that

Yes! I have tried that and other medicated shampoos before. They didn't really work for me.

Coming back on here to say that I’ve been trying Head N Shoulders and glycolic acid and so far so good! I’ll post a review soon ♥️
What shampoo and conditioner do you use? Also do you put conditioner in your scalp?

Hi again! 😆 I currently use Kristin Ess which I 100% recommend and will make a video for later. But throughout the years I’ve used scores of different shampoos and conditioners including medicated ones. And tried different methods (conditioner on scalp conditioner on hair only). So I don’t think it’s the shampoo or conditioner but something deeper. I’m going to a dermatologist and I’ll share what they say. But my sisters also have scalp issues too so maybe it’s hereditary?
