Ovation Cell Therapy/Mega-Tek Challenge

[yodie]

Okay ladies, include me in this challenge. I ordered Ovation today. I hope it comes quickly.

I'm late, but new growth is better late than never. I'm growing straight through the end of the year.

I'll try to figure out how to post a starting photo in my next post.

Stop the press! Now I know what you all were referring to, especially Sareca and Londondiva. I can't tell if I'm going crazy...

Is this new growth?? It's only been ONE week!

I'm 100% natural. I noticed the hair at the root of my d-strand twist was different (tighter wave). I thought to myself is my hair reverting due to the moisture, which doesn't make sense b/c I'm natural! Today, as I took out a twist, I saw that the hair at the base of the twist is clearly different from the rest of the hair. My hair straightens out when I twist it and the twisted hair section I loosened was straight (well stretched), except for the base. Take a look- what do you think??

It's hard to see in the picts. I put a white background up to accentuate it- still not completely reflective of exactly what I see.

I got my MegaTek in the mail today - I think I'm going to mix it with SAA and jojoba or grapeseed oil. I have a wedding to go to next month, and I haven't decided on how to wear my hair yet, but I'm looking forward to having a little extra to swing around!

In the picture above, is your new growth the darker (black hair) compared to the brown hair? If so, that's some growth for one week!

Also, do you henna?

ovation or mega tek? I use ovation and am suffering from tender scalp after 2 days of usage as a leave in.

Yes, it's the darker (thincker) hair. I did henna a few times several months ago. I havent done it in a while, though.

OTC- mostly on dry scalp at night. Usually every day, but I missed maybe 1 day. I'm also spraying Folligen on my scalp in the morning.

You think I wouldn't have? He'd eat anything that is cookie-ish

I do know that since I've been using the OCT without anything else, I'm getting such great thickness and my roots are also the same in density as yours.

my hair in my crow are is thin from over processing but is grows extremely fast. i've been using ovation up there for 3 days not and it is extremely tender, is this normal? um, help somebody.erplexed

several people have commented that ovation made their scalp tender/sore. If it's too uncomfy, just reduce how often you use it - you should still see excellent results.

 

[yodie]

Thanks for this tip. I'll do that.

I got my big ole gallon of mega-tek today, but no horse cookies

 

[nycutiepie]

Question for the OCT users - I put it in a pointy tip applicator bottle mixed with a little water so that it would be easier to distribute, since it's so creamy. I'm also applying it to my scalp dry (no wetting the scalp first). Will I get the same effects? I'm only using a lil bit of water but I'm curious about diluting it. TIA!

that's what i was jusst about to write!!!! but with mega tek is it ok to put it in a pointy tip applicator bottle (except i thickened it up with powdered sulfur and for the extra growth, and it still comes out fine btw) and apply it to the scalp that way instead of like applying it with your fingers?

That's actually a really good idea. I just purchased an applicator bottle for the same purpose. Hmmm...you're one smart cookie

I don't think it should diminish the effects. I'm gonna try that! We'll see.

 

[nycutiepie]

Thanks ladies! I just started so I don't want to screw anything up.

 

[baddison]

Greetings, to everyone. I have just joined this challenge. I ordered OCT last week, and it should be here by Tuesday, 4/15 (TAX DAY!!).

I'm quite excited to get started. I have awful, awful breakage right in the back-center of my head! Its terrible. I hope with a good regimen, and a lotta OCT, this will alleviate my issues.

 

[Prettypsych]

Just to confirm; my picts reflected new growth--not reversion. I had my hair straightened at Aveda yesterday. The last time it was straightened was in mid Feb. I typically get 1/4 inch of growth in a month's time. So, 1/2 inch would be the most length expected in 1.5 month's time. Well, I gained at least an inch, which means in a about a week's time, I gained approximately 1/2 inch or more.

Also, I put some OCT in my hair before I left for Aveda. Despite my thick roots, my hair was very soft after they washed. My stylist mentioned that it's always soft , however, she said it seemed easier to blow dry this time...

Let's see If I can keep the momentum up with OCT and Folligen. Back to my semi-daily regimen tonight... BTW: I didn't tell her...

 

[LondonDiva]

The itching from the mega-tek is downright ITCHY!!!
I feel I'm about to scratch my hair off.

I couldn't stand it either till I started adding castor oil to mine. Now I do an acv rinse after my co-wash too.

How much growth have you had and does the Ovation make your hair ultra soft? That softness has me kind nervous, like it is so soft it will rub off.

I can hang. I'm going to actually go until June 2009. I'm going to keep my cornrow braids in until then (redoing them every 4-6 weeks) and hopefully I will get some nice hair growth.
