Hello everyone. I am a newbie myself. I have lost several nights sleep being totally addicted to this website. I have read, reread, tried and have invested several several dollars in product ALREADY. One evening on here I almost cried
at how much info is out here at my disposal and didn't know it. Years of weave wearin, wig wearin, and thinking I'm just destined to have short hair! The devil is a liar!
You guys are a pillar of inspiration and I am excited about my new hair goals.
I am now on surge, wgho, 3 co washes a week with suave humectant, Pantene pro v break defense(although many people have said on the threads that they didn't particularly like pro v) but it works for me. (once I use it all, I will graduate to Nexus) But then again ANYTHING will work for the condition my hair was in. I'm also using UBH Dew and Lotion creme. And Neutrogenia Triple moisture deep conditioner, as well as infusium 23 moisturizing formula and garnier fructis leave in conditioner. I will be investing in MTG this weekend and I am 10 weeks post. I will be also investing in Phyto index 2 when I go for my touch up in November. (Pray I'll last that long- I already look like Cuzin It
with 6 inch hair)
Contrary to belief, I though I had really hard hair. It is 4a/b but with just one week under weigh in my hair care, my new growth is as soft as can be.
I will be doing a homeade Protein treatment with Egg, mayonaise, MSM powder, Olive oil and Peppermint oil. Right now my protective hairstyle is a pull back in a pitiful ponytail and I baggie my tiny ponytail and put on a netted wig cap not that dried up nylon one, and my short short light weight wig which is as fly as can be. luckily i look the bomb in short hair.
I am on Niacin 500mg, MSM 500mg, Biotin, 1000 mg, miracle 2000 liquid vitamins, and vitamin c 1000 mg.
I do have 2 questions for the experts.
1. Can someone help me with the niacin supplement thang? I tried 2 days on that stuff and I felt like I was on crack!!!!!
Has anyone tried niacin flush free and if you have does it still work?
2. I just ate some Vanilla yogurt and noticed the ingredients had whey protein concentrate, and glycerin. I said hmmm - maybe this may work on my hair as a treatment. What ya'll think especially because I read about using yeast infection treatment to stimulate hair growth as well.
anyone?
oh and can someone tell me how ya'll take those pictures of the back of your hair.?
