My hair sheds already I personally beleive because of the amount of growth I have every month. Im afraid I will shed even more if I use this stuff. I get up to a 1/2 inch new growth every 5weeks. I can't imagin how much my hair would shed if it grew any faster.
 
I've been using MN for the past 2-3 weeks and my has grown considerably. My nape was terrible before and now it has grown in much more than before the MN.

I mix mine with different oils and apply to scalp only every other night.

I been reading several post and threads regarding monistat as a growth aid for over 2 hours now. I heard about it a year ago and found it to be quite interesting. Being that I did the "Big Chop" Brittany Spears style on 7/26/2008 I am more than willing to try sometime new and different. Life as we know it was formed from many ideas, trails and unusual experiments. I am a risk taker. I'm in. I will buy some tomorrow and I will post weekly/monthly pics to my fotki for review of authenticity. By the way my hair has been slow growing all my life. If this works for me I will become the poster child - spokes person shouting from the mountain top of LHCF.

ok, so I have tried MN, but I would like to try it again to see if the results I got were real or I was going insane for a bit! I used it for about 2 weeks, I mixed it with about 5 omega 3,6,9 gel cap oils, some EO's, water , msn powder and I got mind boggling growth in less than 1 week, but I didn't measure, was also using CT though- But The headaches were like boombastic!!

I would like to try it again of course, but I need to find a way to stop the headaches.. any suggestions PLs??

I found that moisturizing my hair first and then adding the MN as a sealant got ride of the headaches for me. You might also want to try using less. I recently put mine in a applicator bottle with a bit of olive oil to help it come out of the tip easier and that seems to be working out well, too. HTH.
 
I brought the "Dollar General" store brand of monistat and mixed it with my Boundless Tresses and I see something and my fotki pics tell it too. I chopped all of my hair off on 7/26/08 and I started using this mixture 7/31/08. I'm going to use it until I reach my goal of shoulder length natural hair and post updated pics monthly. My next update with be 8/26/08 the monthly anniversary of my Big Chop. I did post updated pics today just after 10 days post because I see, I see, I see some hair. Hairiiiiiiiiiiiicome

I used it for a few days, but had to stop cause it gave me pretty bad headaches. I mixed it with Miracle 8 oil and put it on my scalp once a day

You are right. It does give you a headache. However; the results are worth it to me because an Advil can cure the pain.
 
Does this stuff seriously work for dandruff? Because I've tried pretty much everything with no success-- not even eating fruit and drinking water helps with my itchy scalp and dandruff. Medicated shampoos don't help, tea tree oil, ACV, none of it. If someone tells me this stuff really does kill dandruff... then I am kinda willing to try it.

I use the family dollar brand MN. I onced used the walmart generic brand and didnt see any results. I dont know whats in it that makes the hair grows and help to thicken it as well, but all I can say is take a look in my fotki to check out my results from using it.

I mix mine with carrier and essential oil. I apply it to my scalp using a applicator bottle with the nozzle tip.

I know that some voted that they find it crazy to use, but IMO we never really know what we are using and all the ingredients thats in the products that we buy off the shelf. Some products that I have seen lately are using MN in there.

Actually it's not monistat itself that causes the hair to grow but the active ingredient miconazole nitrate (2%) that's the beneficial ingredient responsible for the growth of hair. I still use it on and off as well and it has worked wonders in keeping dandruff off my scalp too - which I find to be an added bonus:yep:.

Shan, it has kept dandruff off my scalp and controlls the itchies as well.

I just started using it and I have not seen the results yet. I hope to see it soon though!

Give it a reasonable amount of time, say 3 months to trace your progress. It helps to know what your hair's normal rate of growth is before embarking on a new growth product regimen because it would determine to a degree how well the product may be working for you, although this is not absolute. But it's a start. Good luck with it and your hair looks great by the way.
 
I tried it a few times while I was in braids but I could never get comfortable with it. I can admit that I saw growth because I retouched by twists and within 10 days, they were much looser than I had experienced ten days after retwisting in previous times.

So...it works really well - exceptionally well - but I don't use it anymore. MT is enough for me...but I do kind of wish that I had found MN first. I'm hair multitasking challenged. :grin:

I love the updates on here....so encouraging. HHG everyone!

I have been applying MN and bunning every day and I have been getting an exceptional amount of growth. These pics are from one month of using MN.
 
I dont mix it- I apply it straight to my scalp every morning and baggy the ends under a phony bun. I cant believe how fast this stuff works!!:grin:

Holy Cow!!!!! :yep: :grin: :yep: :grin: :yep: :grin: :yep:

I have been mixing Bee Mine with OCT or MT. I am on the last of the Bee Mine/OCT mix now. I had said I was not going to order anymore OCT or MT right now because I am sick of paying shipping charges. So, I was planning to do a Bee Mine/MN mix (I have two full bottles of Bee Mine left) until I run out of the Bee Mine. You post solidified that decision.
