    I had them done last week on Thursday in two strand twists, but a day or two after getting them done, I wore a satin bonnet to protect my style and from lint etc, but it makes my head itch for some weird reason, even though my scalp was already oiled when I got my hair done, so I recently oiled my hair and scalp…it toned down a little tbh but it was redness in some areas.
