2010 Sulfur Challenge

[NikkiQ]

My end results. Not a very good flat iron job(humidity took over)

 

[TwistNMx]

Ok, here's my reveal I just started using my sulfur oil mix about 5 weeks ago.

I can't tell how much growth I got...maybe you chicas can help me out? I took the second pic Christmas day.

I can see growth. I'm not great at saying how much, but I would probably say about 1 to 1-1/2 inches anyway, well maybe two... judging from your other picture in the siggy.
Congrats.

Thanks for posting!! Congratulations on your progress ladies!

 

[flowinlocks]

Sigh.. a few pics. of the trimming I had to do this year due to a setback with my ends. However overall I'm pleased with the end result.

I'm slooooowly gaining some thickness. Which is why I started the challenge in the first place. Did I get a super growth spurt? Meh.. however I do love the fact that while using sulfur I had absolutely zero shedding while stretching. That alone makes it a keeper.

I will continue to use my MTG along with my Ayurveda products till I reach my goal length of WL.

I thank you ladies sooo much for sharing this journey with me.

ETA: for larger pics. check out my album

Here is my update. I am in desperate need of a relaxer and my hair is not fully straight in the pics taken today so hopefully I'll have a little more progress after I relax in a few weeks.

I think I gained a heck of a lot of thickness shown in the front shots because my ends were looking horrid. I'm just glad to finally start seeing some length being retained. It's not a lot for the year but it's better than standing still like I was doing after my setback earlier in the year.

The first two pics and the second three pics are from July to December.
The last pic is from March, which I consider my starting point after my setback.'

I can def. see progress. Congratulations! Will you continute to use the sulfur?

Thanks! Yours is progressing well also. It's getting thicker up and you're gaining length.

And then looking at your siggie pic....WOW!! That's a LOT of growth for two years. That's a whole head of hair LOL.

And yeah, I plan to keep using the sulfur mix, just not as often. Maybe 1-2 times a week.

Hey Ladies,

So I ook some photos earlier today of my blown out hair. I'm too scared to use my flat iron. Hmm, needless to say, I've learned a couple of things throughout this experience. I need to document my progress ( I mean seriously) I feel like I make no progress at all, but I know that my hair is growing. So I guess that means more pictures.
I know that I didn't start the challenge from the very beginning, but here goes.


02/13/10--sorry that's the earliest photo that I can find to compare




********************


December 31, 2010 -The sides of my hair are barely SL


December 31,2010-I have no clue what length this is CBL maybe? Who knows

Either way, I'm disappointed and happy at the same time. I've had a lot to overcome and I shouldn't expect everything to happen over night, but geesch. I am already enrolled in the 2011 Sulfur challenge, so hopefully I'll be able to use these as my starting pics. I pray that next year I see way more growth than what I'm seeing now.

Thanks for sharing Justice! Congratulations on your progress. What type of sulfur were you using? Do you feel it was working?

 

[justicefighter1913]

^^^^I'm not sure if it was working. I know that my edges filled in better than what they were before...but that's probably it.

I also have been using JBCO, so I can't really determine what the deal is. You know what, in all honesty, I was praying for results like yours and NJoys, but I know that your results didn't just come overnight.


What type of sulfur? Well, initially I was using BeeMine and BT, so I guess I starting using those for the first two months, but then I started making my own mixed b/c I have so many aruyvedic oils left.

I used this type/brand of sulfur : Amazon.com: Sulfur Powder Sublimed - 4 Oz / Pack: Health & Personal Care

Happy New Year Ladies!!!
I just want to congratulate everyone on their progress and share my results. Also a special shout out to flow for starting this challenge, sharing her knowledge and experience, and for always being enocouraging. I joined this challenge and started using MTG in July of this year, so this is about 6 months of progress. Although I didn't reach my goal of BSL, I will definitely continue to use sulfur as a growth aid.

Not quite but close! It feel strange and uneasy to have hair touching my shoulder especially since I wear wet bun and never let me hair grow pass my shoulder. But I like it. Thanks Flowin for this chalenge and support! I'll continue my routine too but not in a challenge. I'll be too busy to keep posting. HTH ladies!

You mean results like NJoys, not mine. That girl's hair is amazing. I'm sitting here patiently awaiting her reveal. I will say this. Continue to stick to what you are doing. And yes by all means take pics.

It's the only way I can tell if I have had progress or not.

You're welcome. And I see your face picture. I did not know it, but you are so pretty.
Your hair looks healthier. I think that the camera doesn't always display everything. That was the problem I was having I think.
I hope you gain twice as much length next time. I know Ayurveda products are great. I use Amla oil and Henna after each length check straightening.
Are you going to be in the next challenge?

Great progress! I too will continue to use sulfur. I am encouraged.

My update's in my siggy. Only my longest layer is at WL but, I'll take it! I didn't did anything extra to my hair this past month (sulfur mix or supplements), mainly because I'm deep in a stretch and didn't want to push it. But also, I wanted to see what happens with growth rate. I don't think I got much growth in the past month. So, I'll be 6 months post next week and will probably relax soon so that I can get back to what I've been used to.

Oh, and flat ironing was a trip. Not to mention all the broken hairs I swept up. Looks like it was demarc breakage so...

It looks like your hair grew almost 12 inches. Wooooooooowwww. I'm inspired. Is your sulfur recipe posted in this tread? I should probably just look..lol


ETA: I found it

Thanks so much! Yes I am pleased with the health of my hair now. No I won't be joining the next challenge as I don't have the time to dedicate to it. I will continue to use sulfur and cheer everyone on from the sidelines.

Your hair is gorgeous as usual. Congratulations on your progress!! Sorry to hear about your breakage. Was it really bad or were you just freaking out?
