2010 Sulfur Challenge

I got mine from Target 6 dollars , I call them on the phone and then they placed the order for me, i was not sure how they would answer me .

The next time I order mine I'm going to check the pharmacy. I can't believe that jack-butt pharmacist at CVS was being smug when I asked if they sold Sulfur. I made the mistake of asking for liquid Sulfur and he said he never heard of such a thing and made me feel so silly for asking. He didn't say oh, we don't have liquid but we have powder. So I don't know if they sell it because I never checked again.

I ended up ordering it from Amazon. :perplexed

Hey ladies

I've been on vacation since August 4th. Since I got here I haven't taken any MSM, and I left my Claudie's at home. I don't know if I can be asked to oil my scalp religiously right now to be honest, but I'm gonna start back up with my MSM as of this evening.

Everyone that is seeing growth with the Sulphur Mix are you ladies applying daily or how often? TIA

JJ, I started off applying daily; however, now I'm alternating b/w days. On the days that I do not apply the sulfur, I apply a mixture of JBCO/Mega-tek/WGO. I'm getting great growth and my edges are filling in nicely:)
 
This morning, I placed my order for msm powder. Hopefully, it will arrive the beginning of next week. While in braids, I am trying to retaining as much length as possible.
 
Hi everyone! Joining this challenge for the last few months of the year. I've made my own sulfur mix and have used it thrice so far, planning to apply daily, and cowash more often, come september. I used about 9-10% sulfur in my mix.

I have had a slight headache today though. Nothing too serious and i've endured much worse but does this mean I'm allergic to sulfur or will it go away soon?
 
Different reasons... The sulfur in MTG and Bee Mine is VERY drying so I tend to use my homemade mix when I feel like my hair is getting too crunchy. :lol: On the flip side, the first 2, especially MTG pack more of a punch as far as growth when used at least every other day straight. My own mix is more moisturizing however the one I'm currently using is MTG cut with leave in cond. and oils. I like to have options just in case I don't want to deal with the dryness or the smell from MTG, and just the dryness of Bee Mine.

Adding you to the list! Welcome!! Not sure about the headache. I never experienced one when using it topically..
 
applied today and I believe thurs.sometime I dont apply for a day becuase I dont want to manipulate my hair.thats why I bought an applicator bottle:grin:...
 
Is it just me or is anyone else finding it hard to get motivated to post something? I know the same members are here, but it's something about the color scheme that's cold and uninviting..... I have been poppin in for a few minutes and leaving.
 
hi all, newbiw here, can i still join this challenge? i use sulphur on my edges, i use flowers of sulphur in my essential oil mix, trying to regrow my edges. my hairline is receding due to genetics (all the women in my mother's family have this) and years of relaxing. i'm transitioning to natural now in my 13th week.
i find that the mix makes my scalp flake after a few days and i assume its the drying effect of the sulphur. is there anything i can add to my mix to make it less drying? my scalp doesnt itch in that area.
TIA.

Yeah idk what it is but I get bored much more easily now. It seems like there is less activity as well. I know I don't like it. Change is not always a good thing!

By all means you can join!!:yep: First off how strong is your mix? Secondly you need to up your moisture whenever you use sulfur. Try using a moisturizing leave in cond.

I use Herbal Essence Long Term Relationship leave in. Some ladies use Jerri curl spray like Scurl or carefree curl. Or you could make your own. I'm sure these ladies will chime in with what they use. You might also try cowashing, and lessening the amount of times a week you are using the mix.

Adding your name to the list welcome to the challenge!!:grin:

I know there is less activity because ppl are discouraged. I think it will take some time to get everyone back on board. Just wish it was more of a contrast with the colors..
 
Hey ladies! I finally ordered some Bee Mine! I can't wait for it to come, but in the meantime I'm using my homemade mix.


***geesch, I'm really trying to get used to this new set up:(****
