    Did you say 3 n 8 yes old?? My, my you really do look good trust me. Well I'm still struggling to keep weight off so i can't say anything Abt maintenance. My stomach area is the most biggest part of my body, and I'm still trying to figure out what will work for me as per size reduction cos just like you, the sit ups, crunches etc does not do the job. But keep up the good work though.

      Thank you. *LOL! One other thing that helps is reduction in carbs and starchy food. Nigerian food is loaded with this, so I try to reduce my portion sizes even if I have to eat it. I put more of the vegetables than the starchy and so on.

Why does my scalp itch when I use Jamaican Black Castor Oil?

Issue: “My scalp itches whenever I use Jamaican Black Castor Oil.” 😩 Possible Reasons: It’s too thick – Jamaican Black Castor Oil (JBCO) is very heavy and can clog pores or trap buildup, especially if applied directly to the scalp without dilution. Product buildup – If not washed out regularly, residue mixes with sweat and sebum, leading to itchiness or flakes. Allergic reaction or sensitivity – The ash content from roasting the castor beans can irritate some scalps. Dry scalp underneath – Sometimes the oil just coats the scalp instead of moisturizing it, leading to dryness and itchiness underneath. Solutions: ✅ Mix JBCO with a lighter oil (like jojoba, grapeseed, or almond oil) before applying. ✅ Use only a few drops — a little goes a long way. ✅ Massage it into your scalp gently and don’t leave it on for too long without washing (1–2 times a week max). ✅ Do a patch test before full use to rule out sensitivity.
