A Bottle of Maxahair.

We've gone over why hair loss happens and what can be done to stop DHT from causing it. Maxahair has the ingredients that will inhibit the production of DHT and hair miniaturization. It has DHT-blocking doses of saw palmetto extract, beta-sitosterol, pumpkin seed, pygeum, broccoli, burdock root, as welll as ingredients that promote hair growth.
Is Maxahair Safe?

The dosages within Maxahair are very reasonable. Higher dosages have been safely used to treat men with prostate problems, a more serious problem also involving the production of too much DHT.

I wasn't gonna join because 12 inches in 12 months does seem quite ambitious, but hell, why not?

This is the last challenge I'm joining. Don't be postin' no more good challenges to trap me, y'all! I'm already in 5! But 2 are the same (here & on BHM) and one is just a photo reveal challenge so I'll say 3.

Starting length: Almost APL (I have about 1" to 1.5" to go)
Goal length: Full BSB normally but I guess if I'm aiming for 12 inches I'll say 2 inches past WL :yep:
Starting pic (using the same one for every challenge lol):

Day 1 of 2012!

2 glasses of water, 6 to go

Beauty Vites vitamins taken

Sulfur Hair Growth Oil applied

First relaxer of 2012 coming up in less than 2 weeks.

I will make waist length this year :woot:
 
just placed my order for nioxin recharging complex. £ 50 ! (product and shipping) that's without the bank chargers, and delivery option charge (which I can't seem to find the exact cost for anywhere). It's 3 months worth, so we'll see if it's worth it. I'm a bit nervous actually cause last time I purchased a £ 7 CD on amazon, they sneaked in a £ 50 annual subscription thing which i didn't ask for. but hey ho. It's done now. can't wait to get them now :giggle:

Inspiired count me in baaaybe, i'll come back with my starting pic and info in a bit

oh and Bublin! I bought the nioxin (intensive therapy) recharching complex (90 tablets). there seems to be a much cheaper one on amazon (something like 13 quid) but that's cos it's only got one third of the tablets (30 tablets instead of 90). considering all the extra chargers may be worth buying the 90 tablets one, so ull only be charged once.

oh can't wait to get 12 inches. might be done with hair growing then hehe :lol:

happy growing every 1!

Thanks for this! I'm going to check into this one. I like that it also has Mushroom extracts. Chinese mushrooms are superfoods for healing & health. Shiitake helps with: fibroids, blood pressure, cholesterol & cancer. & Maitake helps with: hemorrhoids, blood pressure, cancer, cholesterol, lowering blood sugar levels & chronic fatigue.

I usually take Nature's Sunshine HSN
A herbalist in my hometown also told me about Irwin's Natural's Healthy Skin & Hair & Nails
I'm going to compare the three & either chose 1 or all 3. :look:

I haven't completely read the entire thread yet but I'm really excited about this. I love what you wrote and I feel like you were able to cover everything. I'm in!!! I'm using the mobile app so I can't like the post now but I will!

I really want to try Nioxin but they have so many that I'm not sure which one to order. Which ones are you guys ordering?

Hi HautePinkHeels, quite a few people (in this thread, and other threads) have mentioned the same product name, and have given the same link for this product

Nioxin Intensive Therapy Recharging Complex (90 tablets)

link :

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=0ZFKY2NE2ZFSP87729ZM

It's ridiculously expensive for uk buyers, but if u search Nioxin threads in this forum, it seems that US buyers get it for quite a relatively cheap price
 
I'm in.

I'm going to make my custom conditioners as a pre-poo and go to the Dominicans on Fridays to do my hair.

I will exercise

I will do the castor oil mix thingy

I will utilize hair rinses.

I will use a satin cap (I was a newlywed in 2011. The cap is back on for 2012)

I will be less stressed.

And last but not least, I will pray for it. :yep:

I'm using Camille Rose's growth oil right now, but once it's gone, I'm gonna start making my own. I'm really excited about it! It'll be infused with all kinds of yummy herbs and spices. :lick:

I love the liberation of making my own stuff!

Hmhg <3
 
I am definitely in this one!

Current Length:Shoulder/collarbone length
Goal:
*realistic: Full APL -> Brushing BSL
*12 inches/year: Full MBL --> brushing WSL

If Njoy could retain 10 inches in one year, I am pretty sure I can do the same; or at least I hope so.

Regimen

  • Use as many natural products on my hair as possible, aside from (mega-tek, aphogee and a deep conditioner)
  • Growth aids: Mega-tek; may or may not make a sulfur-based oil, JBCO
  • Wash day! dry scalp treatment colloidal oatmeal mixed with olive oil and water prior to shampoo; Pre-poo length of hair with JBCO, cleanse with (ACV, Aloe vera and EO mix), deep condition, Final rinse Nettle tea rinse/coffee rinse
  • LOC method
  • Scalp massages w/ EO prior to workout (4-5 days/week)
  • Clean diet/juicing
  • Supplements: Nioxin (need to purchase), Multi-V (for now), Fish oil, MSM, Sea Buckthorn (need to purchase), B-Complex, whey protein isolate
  • low heat for stretching hair, flat iron very low heat

*I may also look into juicing grapefruit and massaging it on my scalp or rubbing a slice on my scalp overnight based on a previous thread I posted that an active ingredient has encouraged hair growth

However, ill eventually simplify this or at least try to since it kind of seems a lot :/

after a lil thought im in yall!!! lol i will be wearing my hair in various low manipulation styles. absolutely no heat and exercising and i have found and amazing home made deep conditioner that makes my curls pop so i will use it weekly.:lick:
