Omg!! Me too! Whatever you do,don’t wet it. Once, mine was itching like crazy and I was crying for help and no one knew what to do. So,I just decided to wet it abd it got 10000 times worse.
But now, I sometimes use Vaseline. Don’t let it touch your weave,though.

All that tension of having the thread pulled through the underlying braids is probably causing the itchy scrathies. Perhaps putting some coconut oil through your scalp will help. Also aloe vera gel is a soothing agent. Try thinning the Aloe vera gel with water or oil and work it through your scalp. Good luck

Sometimes I think its a mind thing of knowing that my natural hair is about to be “put up” for a few months, and I wont be able to get to it and scratch if I need to. I use braid royale (not too much to loosen the braid but just give you some relief) or sulfur 8 spray. My sew in has been in for almost 2 months now and I so dont want to take it down until I get another appt lol good luck hun it looks nice on you!

Im thinking ur braids may be too tight and or ur hair/ scalp is dry. Ive had this problem before. I take a can of oil sheen and go in between my braid and oil my scalp this help me a whole lot.. if u can have someone else do it so u wont put oil on the weave.

I think you might be allergic to the colored thread that was used in your sew in weawve… try using a wig cap on top of your braids, you will not have to braid your own hair so tight. Sew the edges of the wig cape it your natural hair along the hairline and cut the elastic band off. add tracks as usual and this will keep the thread away from your scalp and protect your hair while it’s still in it’s growing phase. Good luck
