What were you thinking to mix it with instead?
 
My MN mix lasted 4 months, not using it every day. I'm going to take a month break and use liquid gold sulfur oil every other day from the month of May or until it runs out. After that, I plan on returning to MN. I will length check again in June.
 
So my mix I'm currently using is MN 4% & 2% with a whole jar of sulfur 8 .. but its waaaaayyyy to thick for daily application! Do you ladies have any suggestions to thin this mix a bit?
 
have you ladies ever tried to melt the MN down to an oil for an easier use?? I ask this because Im still wearing box braids and they will be in for a month, I wasnt to still use my MN but i dont want the build up.
 
As most of you know, I took my MN break this month. I did notice some shedding, which I could have done better about counteracting but not too bad. I wanted to share my growth in 4 week using the liquid gold sulfur as my growth aid. I didn't do an exact measurement but it looks like it has growth and even looks healthier. I will be continuing the liquid gold into June but will be resuming MN as well.
 
Installed box braids (which I love) :lol: I plan on keeping these until the end of June maybe mid July .
Still using my Sulfur 8 and MN mix.. i'll be added tea tree oil soon.

I have been a member of the Monistat/hair growth cult :lol:; since 2005. Over the years I have had some setbacks using the product. Had big breakage in 2009 and ended up cutting my hair in to a TWA to even it . realized it makes my hair dry so I must condition condition, condition. But I swear by it
. Currently I am using it with glovers mane and 14 in 1 along with grape seed oil. Remember the dryness I spoke of. This combo is to heavy for the summer months. So today I have mixed the MN with 14in 1 spray moisturizer alone.
I have a personal challenge to grow out my hair 1/2 inch each month from May 2013 to Jan 2014. that is the third anniversary of my starting my healthy hair journey. I am realizing that with all aspects of hair care there is trial and error.

Good Job on installing your box braids! Is the mix feeling too heavy with your braids?
 
SO i added cold pressed organic extra virgin coconut oil and it make my mix 10x better because of the smoothness ..i have to buy more mn and sulfur 8 soon also. Oh and ive had these braids for..15 days and i already have 1/4 - 1/2 inches of visible growth

Sounds great!!! Are you MBL yet?
 
So I haven't used any growth aides in this 13 week strecth and I can tell a difference. I don't think I've had nearly as much growth as usual. I will be getting back on it in the next week or so.
 
I started back with MN last night after my month break. I am applying directly (no mix) every night or at least every night I remember. ;-)
 
I went back and realized I never showed my May growth, using Liquid gold oil and no MN. This month, I will be using both every day or every other day. My awful trim image-4116376377.jpg 4 weeks later...curled I'm convinced--liquid gold is going to continue to be in my growth aid arsenal!
