I dont know if they are in-grown hairs or just lil pimples. But I seem to be getting lil bumps on my head. I never notice this before. They get a lil sore, but I put a lil tea tree oil and that helps. Does anyone know what these could be?
are they like little spots? they could be because your heads not used to the dirt of dreads and the lack of brushing. How often do yo wash them? Tea tree is a good idea
I wash them about 2 times a week. Sometimes a lil less. I think they are most likely in grown hairs. That makes the most sense.
you'd only get ingrowing hairs realisticly if you shaved your head lately. Its probably thje same as when i was a young teenager, i got loads of spots on my back where my long hair reached... cos i wa sa young teen my hair got super greesy causing me to break out in spots. what do you wash your hair with?
I don't know what they are, but I get them too...they are like scabs or something...They aren't like pimples...they're scabs... They don't hurt or anything and I wash my hair regularly, so I really haven't given them much thought, really.
I used to get them all along my hairline above my neck. They were bumpy and painful at times. I don't know what caused them but eventually they just went away..
I have those little scabs aswell... I dont understand it, but i find myself picking at them.. they are in between all the dreads, i always figured it was from itching my head
Some of mine get painful too. I am glad we can all go through this together. I got someone to look at them and they said it was dead skin build up. I have been scrubing my head pretty good the last few days and that seems to be helping. I am gonna go give em a gould scrub in the shower in a few minutes. Oh Fleassy I wash with Knotty Boy 'Poo!
Its weird, since I started this thread I havent had any trouble with the bumbs any more. I spend a few minutes a day scratchin, so I guess that has helped!
