Design Essentials Anti Itch And Tension Relief With Tea Tree And Aloe - 4oz
Braids, locs, extensions and wigs all put the scalp under something it never gets when hair is worn loose: constant tension, and very little air.
Anti Itch and Tension Relief is a blend of natural oils built for that. Tea tree oil moisturises the scalp and leaves a cool, clean note that takes the edge off tightness after a fresh install. Aloe softens and calms the feel of skin that has been pulled taut for days. The blend is thin enough to penetrate rather than sit on the parting, which matters when a style has to last.
Work it along the partings and down to the scalp, concentrating wherever it feels tightest. 4oz bottle. It is made for anyone who keeps hair in protective styles for weeks, and it is worth having on hand from day one of an install rather than waiting until the scalp is dry and sore.
Worth being clear about what it will not do. This is a cosmetic oil blend: it moisturises, and it makes a tight scalp more comfortable to live with. Anything that refuses to settle once the style is out belongs with a pharmacist rather than another bottle off the shelf.

Application tips
Apply to a clean, dry scalp, ideally the day after an install rather than the same evening. Tip the bottle onto the parting itself and let it run in, then press it down with a fingertip instead of rubbing.
Move round the head in rows, giving the tightest spots at the nape and hairline extra. Repeat every few days for as long as the style is in.
Results
There is an immediate cool note where it lands, which takes the tight, drawn feeling out of a fresh install faster than anything else in the routine.
The scalp stops feeling dry and papery between washes, and the itch that comes with weeks under braids settles down. It sinks in rather than sitting on the parting, so the style stays neat and the hair around it does not go greasy.
