2010 Sulfur Challenge

I changed my mix this week and I love it even more. I'm back to the basics of just JB Castor oil, peppermint oil and the Sulfur. I love it and it's thicker than I thought it would be without the MN.

I didn't get those horrible itchies I got before when I used too much castor oil. Then again, the last time I got those itchies I was using the regular castor oil and this time it's the JBCO. I've got to find the JBCO locally because I hate paying the high shipping costs.

HHG everyone!

Oh my word, it's the castor oil that has been giving me those terrible itchies? That really suck becuase it never itched me like this before. It is the only thing I added to my reggie as of late that would cause my scalp to itch so bad. Anyhoo, I'll have to do something else with it now.
 
I've been slacking these past few days. Making up a fresh batch today and starting back tomorrow.

Hairsnob, You are an angel. I was just about to ask via a new thread if anyone has tried a sulfur JBCO mix. I just ordered both last week and was going to try it out. Can I ask what's your JBCO/sulfur ratio? I was going to do 90% JBCO and 10% sulfur. Also do I have to warm the JBCO for mixing or mix as is. Sorry for all the questions. OH and I got itchies with regular castor oil so I'm glad that that's not the case with the JBCO!

Great minds think alike :-) I use 10% sulfur, about 80% JBCO and 10% Nioxin (plus about 20 drops of Peppermint oil). I love this mix!! Nice and thick (it'd be even thicker without the Nioxin).

And don't warm the JBCO because you never know if that changes anything with the sulfur. I just mix it all up as it is and it dissolves with no problem.

HTH!!

Good luck and HHG!!

Yeah, it was funny because it would be the next day and I'd get a sudden case of the itchies sometimes. I thought it was a good thing but that itchy feeling wasn't good at all so I had to wash it the last time it was so bad. The other times it would start to itch the next day but not as bad. I think it itched more when the ratio of castor oil was too high because I've used it all this time but it only itches when I used too much.

So far no itchies with this JBCO and I used a lot of it.

HHG!!
 
I know I'm too late to be in on this challenge, but I will be watching this thread. I think I'ma hop back on the sulfur tip.

I have a weak spot of hair, its thin, breaks off easily, and doesn't grow as fast as the rest of my hair. A couple years ago, I was pretty consistent with using MTG just in that one spot and it thrived. It was still slightly thinner and shorter than the rest of the rest of my hair but it was much thicker and longer than before

I've been eyeballing the BeeMine serums and may get back on this. I don't get relaxers anymore, so that helped some, but its still struggling to keep up with the rest of my hair and I"m tired of getting trims to keep the rest of my hair even with that part.
 
So I just went back and read thru some of the thread. Not all, its too dang long! lol

My hair is soooo weird. People are saying MTG made their hair dry/hard. When i was using it, I think it made it softer! lol. I'm also one of those people that the products that everyone else loves, makes my hair dry and horrible, go figure!
 
I keep slipping off of this challenge. After I cut my hair back in early August, I started back using it faithfully for a few weeks then stopped. I do notice a difference with the length from when I first cut it like a month and a half ago, not sure about exactly how much though. I started back using my mixture last night.

Cool! I'm in.

I have some MTG at the house already. I'm only applying it to the back half of my hair. I'm considering mixing it with one of the Afroveda oils, but I'll just use it alone for now.

Ok I'll add you to the list. If you want you can post a starting pic. That way you can track your progress from now till the end of the year.

wOW! I had no idea. I thought it was to be Sept. 1st. I've been involved in the move to my new home so everything seems topsy turvy right now.
Thanks for mentioning this.

Oh, btw when is the big day?
 
Checking in: I didn't apply mtg this weekend (just didn't feel like it) I did apply some this morning though, and I have been taking msm consistently on a daily basis.
 
Since I'm in the HYH challenge, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to post my progress so far without breaking the rules of the challenge. Can I take pics of my NG instead and compare it to the pic of NG I posted when first joining the challenge?

Of course! And don't forget we also have the end of the year update as well.
 
I'm about to apply my sulfur mix right now. I sure as heck don't feel like it but this is the sacrifice we make for longer hair. I wish this stuff was good to put on your hair itself because I'd just rub it all through real quick. That's how tired I am.
