faithVA I answered all questions and posted pictures on my LHCF blog. I am discouraged, but happy to hear the success stories in this thread. I need to comb through the information for more suggestions that I can tease out and use myself.

Oiled my edges with HBCO and massaged al little bit of coffee castor oil into my crown.
When I had my hair down earlier, as I was running my fingers through the hair in my crown, I was pleased to feel that it didn't feel too much thinner than the rest of my hair.
I will work on just my edges until June. Then I may start applying the JBCO to my entire head to thicken my hair.

Hi all. I just posted in another thread and I wanted to share with you all my progress.
I have had thin and bald spots from a chemical burn two years ago. With frequent washing and oil massages, in particular Emu (the most effective) and Castor oil. I have seen a change. The pictures are huge so you can see the new hairs coming in after 38 days of consistent use of these oils and massages.
I really hope this helps.

You are doing a great job with your hair. I wish you continued progress, DayDreamist! Seeing those small black dots (sorry, don't know the technical term...pores? idk) seems to hint that more hair is coming! Good for you! 
Is this the first/most significant hair growth you've seen in the two years since the burns?

I think the small dots are my pores scabbed over. For years I would scratch and scratch and scratch and (this is nasty) I can't allow scabs on my upper body, especially my head. I picked the scabs from day one and never allowed my scalp to heal. Now that I am serious about my hair I barely scratch my head period. When its itching I massage a tiny bit of neem and manuka oil to kill whatever is causing the irritation.

No problem, I appreciate. I don't think I could be anything other than transparent.

Thanks! I litterally jumped off the couch when I felt peach fuzz up there and now to see it filling in and in such a short time too. I've prayed over it and I forgot about it (meaning I didn't worry about it) and I'm seeing results. Thank God.

oiled my scalp with coffee castor oil and gave myself a quick scalp massage. Part of me wants to sit under my heat cap and add some heat but the rest of me is too lazy to get off the bed.
I guess between now and 10 pm I should get up at some point.
I have about a month of my coffee castor oil left. Then I will move onto my HBCO.

I applied sulfur oil to my scalp and concentrated extra on my edges.

My edges are still filling in and growing. I have a super annoying halo effect going on now that I simply ignore because I'm scared brushing and applying gel to that area will damage any progress. Applying the Sulfur 8 every night and washing my hair with the Jason biotin shampoo once a week making sure to massage my scalp well. I may try to make my own 2-5% sulfur grease when I run out.

DayDreamist, that's very inspirational! Thanks for sharing.
I'm in braids now, but my edges are out because I didn't want to run the risk of losing the baby hair that's sprouting. I keep the edges moisturized and in a little baby twist. I am seeing progress and hope that it will continue. Patience....that's what I keep reminding myself.
