Hmm. I said I wasn't going to do this again since I didn't notice growth last time. A month since I finished though I appear to be hitting APL in the part I measure which has to be 3/4" - 1" growth.

Day 1 lol:spinning:

I think for some people inversion doesn't produce instant results so there is delayed growth. I noticed this happened with me as well, took about 3 weeks so if this challenge doesn't give me an inch on day 7, I'm gonna measure day 14, 21, 28 to see if there is a difference overall.

Hey @PureSilver! I just whipped out the shea cashmere V05. :yep:


@yodie, I got hand in hair disease so find I massage through my long 1 hour commutes in the car so don't find it necessary to do a regular massage before inversion. I had very noticeable results last month.

DarkJoy, I'm like you in that area even when I wear wigs. Now, during the inverting off season (after the 7 days are over) I massage (or try to) every night to get the blood flowin' and the mind relaxin'.

I would also recommend that you do not do it if it is that time of the month, because you are experiencing blood loss.

Awww man! :tantrum: well guess I got to wait till December to do it again. I don't think this one will count.

DrC I say carry on with your inversion. I suggest you take iron supplements especially during your cycle. I try to do this but i fall short sometimes. Aint no stopping now, you've come too far.
 
Doing my day 5 tonight. Can't seem to keep my oil hot tho. I think I'm gonna microwave the oil itself instead of dipping the container in hot water.

I was able to measure my front edges (hair is track braided). I measured about 2 1/2" on the right side on Nov. 1st and I'm already at 3 1/2". Had to measure twice and grab less hair to make sure I wasn't just imagining longer hair there. I got my inch already:woot::yay:

:wow:
Congrats! I think I'll be trying this very soon! Too bad I got a nasty cold that I'm trying to recover from or I would've joined the challenge. Enjoy!

:crossfingers: And good luck to everyone trying this challenge, I wish you all the best! :pray:
 
Hmmm I started with hanging my head off the bed but i wasnt feeling like I was gettingagood bloodrush. So this morning I decided to do a downward facing dog like position. I really feel the blood rushing to my head !!!!

Plus I can do inverted pushuos while im at it .... kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Day 3 complete. I did not use an oil today, just massaged and inverted. Feeling discouraged about it though - I couldn't get a good read on my measurements or length checks yesterday so I won't know for sure if it grew or not.
 
i guess my length will show later because i rerolled my hair and don't see anything but i feel some new growth
 
I forgot to post this past Sunday.

So I got a touch up on the 28th of October because I wanted to start fresh for this challenge: I did 4 days of inversion. Anyway, I have pretty significant new growth one week post relaxer that usually takes 3-4 weeks to get. Not bad!!! I'm also taking biotin so maybe ill actually get an inch this month. Ill post pictures eventually but I think it works.

I didn't use oil or anything.
 
Inverted early this morning as day 5 since I was so tired last night. I will invert again tonight and will let that serve as day 6.
 
Day 2 - I did not reapply hot oil to my scalp yesterday evening. I already had an abundance of olive oil on my scalp from the first day. So I just massage my scalp for a few minutes and then hung my head over for 4 minutes. For the third day (today after work), I may reapply hot oil.
 
Day 4 done. Room temp Camellia seed oil.
