Growth aids for 2007

[chica_canella]

I'm hoping biotin can get me close to BSL by midyear. ::crosses finger::

Biotin doesn't promote growth. It just thickens the strands. The hair still grows at it's normal (your normal) pace but as it grows, the strands are thickened.

I'm just using UltraNourish Hair from GNC. and 1000 or MSM. It's just one pill.


Since everyone needs Flaxseed oil, I may take one of those. It isn't necessarily for hair growth but because this is a vitamin fish produce that all humans need yet can't produce.

Thanks girl, you're so sweet

I'm hoping for lot's of growth since I'm in the process of going natural, but I pray that I don't have the postpartum shedding that comes after childbirth.

I pray for you too about the postpartum, because I lost most of my hair from having a baby last year, and the year before that . I didn't know about the hair site at that time, So I didn't do anything to help my hair. I'm sure you will be fine, keep us posted

I will continue with wgo mix with sulphur and surge mix with 024. I keep putting all these aids in my hair but the one that hair my hair really grow was wgo.

 

[FunkyDiva]

I'm keeping my MTG, Biotin and MSM (even though that's all I've been doing anyway)

Biotin doesn't promote growth. It just thickens the strands. The hair still grows at it's normal (your normal) pace but as it grows, the strands are thickened.

Biotin contains a little sulfur so it will help thicken strands but as a B-vitamin it helps extend the growth cycle of your hair. Biotin also helps maintain the optimal growing conditions for your hair by increasing circulation to the scalp. The increase of circulation and sulfur cause increased growth rate in some including myself. For some people they will not see the increase in growth but alot do. Biotin is tricky because it also sometimes has to be manipulated to see the grwoth benefits. Nevertheless it is one of the few vitamins prescribed to benefit the hair and nails.

I just ordered Viviscal so I'll be starting that and I'm going to continue my MSM, biotin, flaxseed and MTG. I'm thinking about ordering the Lenzi's and maybe replace the MTG but I have to do more research first.

My ziggy says it all.

[Proudpiscean]

I will continue hair vits, and will add lenzi's request.

bumping for moss lady. moss lady have you tried using any of the growth aids to see if it helps. I know since you said it's heredity, it might or might not work.

 

[belle_reveuse28]

uhhhhh... Let's see... MN mixed w/ castor oil and peppermint, sulphur mixed w/ castor oil and peppermint, and MSM.

 

[sareca]

Just going to keep doing what I did for 2006; MSM, Acai, Robin's multivitamin, and scalp massages.

awwww.. I"m sorry to hear that.. BUt I have hope for you and although it may be hereditary, I can tell you that my mom and her sisters all have hereditary female pattern baldness and she's been using MTG for a couple of weeks. She was more than excited to tell me today that her spots are growing in and snatched off her hat, head toe up (which made us both weak! lOl) but it sure was hair growing in all those places... temple, baldness in the middle.. She's excited and I can see there is hope! So, hang in there and go for it. I would suggest MN and MTG or even better, making your own MTG w/ sulphur powder, castor oil and peppermint oil. It can be messy and staining pillows and things like that. I like the homemade better and many others are reporting to get the same results. I"m using that now and so is mom. Be blessed and have a great one!
My most sincere regards are with you, just hang in there.

My immune system is sluggish right now, and even vitamins are talking back to me now. So, I am going to just do the 4 braids baggie and oil the ends for the most part. A little WGO on the scalp from time to time. I guess I need a break. Maybe later on in the year I will do an occasional sulphur treatment. I cannot take vitamins for more than a month at a time and then I feel ill. Maybe because I have had to take so much of them in the past for health reasons. When I start back with the vitamins, I am going to alternate a multivitamin and a hair vitamin and increase my water intake. I am out of whack so I am going to just listen to my body. Probably need to detox and give up sugar. bonjour

What does WGO smell like? I am thinking of using it...
Can one add some other ingredients to make it smell better?
I was thinking of stopping by Sally Beauty after church today and pick some up.

 

[Longing4Length]

For 2007 I am going to continue to take my vitamins...Fingerprinted horsetail, GNC ultra mega and GNC hair, skin and nails supplements. Also, I plan to do a better job of using my MTG, but it stinks so bad!!! I can't find a good dilute to take away the smell. Any suggestions??? I will also continue to use my growth cap. A lot of people don't know about this, but at Wal-Mart there is a silk bonnet/cap that has herbal growth treatment inside and its just 1.99. It really really helps with growth! Try it!

My husband thinks it smells like a safari...erplexed , it smells "weird" to me, like some odd nutrition supplement, but it's not a stench like some sulfur products. I don't use much because I only wash 1x a week, so if you use it sparingly the smell will dissipate.

I agree with your hubby. It very earthy to me. I have add peppermint EO to mine and that makes it better. But it doesnt smell anywhere as bad as the MTG or even the Alma oil.

I plan to continue using WGO, and I'm dropping all other growth aids

Me too. I haven't taken vitamins since the end of October and my hair seems to be doing just fine. I've still gained a lot of length. I will keep using WGO but only on wash day mainly for softness not growth.
