Dry Skin

I'm 13 1/2 weeks and my skin and scalp has gotten dry. I added coconut oil to my lotion but it wears off like my body is drinking the lotion. I'm itchy and uncomfortable. I've tried about 4 different shampoos and conditioners and they make my scalp dry and itchy. Ugh

I have to try the mother's friend. I may switch to a chemical free line of shampoo and conditioner. I had my husband scratch my head today.I fell asleep on him lol. This afro of mine is going to get shaved off if I can't get relief.

My skin was extremely dry I tried coconut oil tummyy butter aveeno lotion and baby oil nothing helped so I started using something called "mothers friend" it works amazing got it from a local pharmacy but it can be ordered online and is only $8. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water also it helps. For my hair ive been using mane and tail horse shampoo. Make sure you arent putting the conditioner on your scalp must middle to ends
