Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Hi Lisa, Are you getting enough Omega 3 fatty acids ( fish oil, flax oil)? Getting enough fatty acids can make a difference in how you skin behaves. You use homeopathy, don't you? Have you been using Rhus Tox, and found any relief from the itching?

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Borax is a all propose cleaner that has been used in the USA for more than 150 years. If you call around to a standard grocery store, they will know what you are talking about. My mom is chemically sensitive so I know there is nothing crappy in it. -Shelby Lisa Belcher [lisabelcher]Tuesday, April 15, 2003 12:15 AMherbal remedies Subject: Re: [herbal remedies] scalp problems Hi Shelby, What is Borax? I did dye hair about 6 months ago, which is growing out now. I am keeping my hair short until it's all gone, and then will grow it a bit again. Lisa - Shelby Blakely herbal remedies Tuesday, April 15, 2003 5:28 AM RE: [herbal remedies] scalp problems My mom washes her hair with I think Borax. She loves it, but I don't know if you dye your hair. -ShelbyFederal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1. Natural methods can sometimes backfire. 2.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 I've also used white vinegar on my hair before as conditioner. Works pretty well, particularly if you braid your hair up before washing it!

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Hi Kathe, I take 3 tbs flaxseed oil per day. It was 2 tbs and I recently increased it to 3. Yes, I do use homeopathy. I never tried that for the scalp problem! Rhus Tox huh? Will try it! Thanks for the suggestion :-) Lisa - nkbaker2001 herbal remedies Tuesday, April 15, 2003 4:10 PM [herbal remedies] scalp problems Hi Lisa,Are you getting enough Omega 3 fatty acids ( fish oil, flax oil)?

hairylossen Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 I have tried herbal detox treatment to top itchy scalp. The results was good, it removes the excess oil and chemical that clogs my hair follicles. Now my scalp is clear from dandruff and more hair is growing.
