Has anyone had the opportunity to use these products yet? If so, how do you rate them? They're featured in the May issue of Essence. Their website is www.triplegro.com.

I think the Triple Gro IS Black and Sassy. For awhile it was just one product, a bubble gum smelling yellow/green concoction with a petroleum jelly like constistancy called "Black and Sassy Triple Gro". I have a rabid sweet tooth...which of course made me want to try it. I didn't try it, but like Nappy Paradise said, the ingredients aren't anything I'd slather on my tresses.

Are you looking for a good moisturizer, something to enhance your growth?

 

[SignatureBeauty]

Thank you gloomgeisha! Because maybe they are tryin to get money 2 ways and yes I Loved the way it smells but horrible for hair LOL!!!!! When I was Relaxed I would use Black n Sassy Wrap cream set and that was good but that was all I used LOL!!!!!

I had a sample of the Tea Tree Oil hair grease. Its a really nice hair grease because it has a great tingle and smells really good. It's also kind of a light hair grease. However, I never bought an actual jar of it because it has mineral oil in it.

WOW thanks goodness they have an ingredient info chart on their products on the website. Every one of their products have mineral oil in it with the exception of the shampoo and "rebuilder treatment". I would NEVER use this crap! THe have mineral oil as one of the primary ingredients in their stimulating scalp spray

I have a coworker at work you swears by the hairgrease the only product she used from the line.
My coworker did a big chop a year ago and her hair is past shoulder length a year later.
I dont know her hair regimen but a lot of people have no problem with using products with mineral oil.

I've never used these products, but the manufacturer does give good advice on the Hair Growth Myths page.

Hair Growth Myths

Myths about hair growth and maintenance have been circulating since time immemorial. Although the Triple Gro line is your first step in growing fuller, longer, more luxurious locks, dispelling some of the old wives' tales you may have heard over the years will enable you to eliminate anything counterproductive from your hair care regimen.

Myth: Trimming your hair encourages growth.
The Facts: Visible hair is dead tissue. Although a slight trim may eliminate hair that appears "thinner" due to split ends, there is no relation between the visible (non-living) hair and the follicle which is responsible for its production.

Myth: Washing your hair will only make it drier.
The Facts: Shampooing on a regular basis with the right shampoo will not rob your hair of any moisture. In fact, using the right shampoo for your hair like Triple Gro Root Nourishing Therapeutic Shampoo can actually add body, moisture and luster to your hair.

Myth: One should brush their hair through 100 strokes each day.
The Facts: Your hair may look neater and more uniform after you're done, but manic brushing won't do a thing to promote growth. The only thing this ritual might portend is excessive oil production from the sebaceous glands on the scalp. What's worse is that heavy handed brushing to sensiitve hair could actually result in widespread breakage or premature release of hair from the follicle (essentially pulling your hair out).

Myth: You should change your shampoo on a regular basis.
The Facts: There is no scientific proof to substantiate the notion that your hair "gets used to" a certain shampoo. This myth seems to have arisen from people wanting variety in their life. If you're currently using a shampoo that yields favorable results, there is no reason to make a change.

Myth: Unwashed hair is faster growing hair.
The Facts: This myth seems to have perpetuated from the "tight" or mildly itchy feeling you may have on your scalp after washing your hair. If you live in a very dry environment or in surroundings where the winters are dry and cold, you've undoubtedly felt the effects of non-humid air on your skin. The same dry, tight skin you've experienced on the rest of your body following a shower is what you're really feeling on the scalp. This is no reason to limit the cleansing of your hair. Regular washing not only keeps the hair shaft clean, it also cleanses your scalp and follicles enabling new, healthy growth. The important thing in combating dryness is the use of effective conditioners like Triple Groâ„¢ Intensive Conditioning Hair Rebuilder.

Myth: I am unable to grow long hair.
The Facts: The crux of this problem lies in your ability to keep your hair. Some relaxers can take their toll on your tresses and lead to breakage — but diligent hair maintenance with high quality products like Triple Gro™ and the use of relaxers with strengthening agents like Triple Gro™ GroLaxer Mild, Regular or Super, you can be on your way to beautiful, shed-free styles the next time you decide to process.

Myth: Any chemical process or heat will ruin your hair.
The Facts: You can easily attain the balance between stylishness and healthy hair if you make careful decisions about how you care for your locks. If you use relaxer, you should make sure that you choose the strength appropriate for your hair type. Many are quick to equate ultra-kinky with resilient and in need of the strongest relaxer available. In reality, the opposite holds true. Very curly hair is actually much more delicate than wavy or straight hair. Every curvature in the strand is a compromised area, more susceptible to breakage.

If you properly match a relaxer to your hair type, use a deep conditioner like Triple Gro Intensive Conditioning Hair Rebuilder Treatment and limit your use of blow-dryers, curling irons and hot combs, you should encounter minimal breakage and enjoy superb hair growth.

I know alot of people who still use grease with mineral oil with no problems at all, I just don't like that one, I still have some old school Blue Magic Coconut Grease in my Cabinet, but when the ingredients have all these words I can't pronounce I don't like that, But they have some with great ingredients and have mineral oil in the middle. It is just a preference.LOL!!!

I found out bout it from a coworker who says it helped her edges and some growth.Not sure what else she does,but over a period of time she has gotten some length.So the PJ in me ran out and bout it, but sorry i didn't use often enough to see results for myself. Also,it is a Black n Sassy product.

 

[preciousjewel76]

I got a sample packet of one of these products a couple of weeks ago at at BSS. I have no desire to use it. Based on the ingredients on their website, I'm not too impressed. I can tolerate some mineral oil, but it's the #1 ingredient in most of their products. That stuff would make my hair and scalp all icky in a matter of hours.

Plus, some of the products have strange names & functions. For example, how is their hair serum supposed to be "anti-shedding"? No "serum" is gonna keep hair from falling out of your scalp.

Ingredients:
Mineral Oil (and) Ethylene/Propylene/Styrene Copolymer (and) Butylene/Ethylene/Styrene Copolymer, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Mineral Oil, Glycerin (and) Water (and) Glycoproteins, Cystine Bis-PG-Propyl Silanetriol, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Menthol, Hydrolyzed Keratin, Fragrance.

Triple Gro is from the Black & Sassy line. I use the Tea Tree Oil grease and Herbal Gro grease and I like both of them. I've been using this line for about 2 years and it goes on light on my scalp. I love it even tho they contain some of the "bad" ingredients

 

[ronakajones]

I purchased the Amazing Length Triple Gro hair grease for the first time after a friend told me about it. I used it Saturday and my hair feels better that it ever has. I PROMISE. It looks healthy and moisturized. I had a lot of breakage from a bad dye job in the crown area, and after I used this product, all my hair looks amazing. I have been wrapping my hair and getting up in the morning and it just falls into place. I love it. I am gonna start using the entire products line. No more searching for me. I've found my Staple product!!! Anyone else tried it???

 

[bauderlady]

I love the tonic, spray, deep conditioner and shampoo, and my hair loves them back. I love the way my hair feels when it is dry. Very soft and moisturized! It is a keeper for me.
