Help with crazy itchy scalp

I have thick curly hair, 2c/3a, and no matter what I do my scalp is crazy itchy since I've committed to a curly hair routine. Whether I use a clarifying shampoo or a cowash doesn't seem to help. All I use on my hair post-wash is gel and a foam and a small amount of leave-in on my ends. Please help! My curls look fine but this is driving me mad.

Looking for UK drugstore mousse recommendations for 2c/3a curls

Hi everyone 😄 I'm looking for drugstore recs for a mousse for 2c/3a curls with a lightweight hold that gives good definition. My hair is coarse, bleached and has high porosity and is very thick!

Went to a curly hair stylist who advised a lightweight mousse and gel so as not to weigh down my curls. Currently my hair lasts just about to day 2 but after that is beyond styling! I tried the UG wavy hair mousse and found it super drying for my hair, currently just using the argan oil eco gel and diffusing and get nice curls but they don't last.

Any and all recommendations welcome! Thanks 😄

New to curly hair routine and need advice!

Hi everyone! I have 2c/3a high porosity coarse, highlighted wavy/curly hair and am looking for some product recommendations. I've noticed my curls are defined on day 1 and day 2 but by day 3 my hair is very dry and my curls kind of clump together. I'm looking to up my hair moisture and make my curls last longer, so I don't have to wash as frequently.

My current routine:

-Umberto Gianni frizz fix shampoo and conditioner

-Detangle curls in shower with wide-tooth comb

-Apply products in shower; curlsmith style me softly balm, UG wavy hair mousse, Quai leave-in conditioner

-Section and diffuse dry, scrunch lightly with microfibre towel, and sleep in silk bonnet with hair down (tried pineapple-ing and didn't work for me!)

Any and all advice is much appreciated, as well as product recommendations!
