I know what you are talking about. For me it is not really an itch--but that is the closest word that I would be able to find to describe it. But it is definetly a stong sensation. I think that it is related to the weight of the hair and how that can effect the angle that it is at in relationship to the scalp. When I use product on my hair I get that sensation by the end of the day. It will go away when I wash and blow dry my hair. I sometimes have to do this before I go to bed. But then I will have to wash and blow dry again in the morning or I will get "the sensation." When I have that sensation I can not keep my hands out of my hair. The waxy type of products are the worst. They really help with the flat ironing and sure do make the hair shiny, but they make the hair too heavy.

I also wanted to add that the sensation is only stong on the little patch that I have pulled from. So I do think that damage has effected it.
