I want to join! Was supposed to start like last week but started today. I actually just finished Day 1 like 5 minutes ago. I used coconut oil.

Day 7 was completed successfully. No pics because of the twists. I used NJoy 's sulfur oil 6 out of 7 days. On Day 7, I actually moisturized, sealed with EVCO, used sulfur oil and covered with plastic cap and my satin cap before massaging a couple of minutes and inverting for 5 minutes. I didn't heat up the oil on any of the days.
Next month, I'll try what I did on Day 7 for the entire week.
Am I the only one hanging over backwards?
It seems like everyone else is talking about leaning over forward over the bed, arm of the sofa or exercies ball.

I guess I'm still skeptical. I keep wondering if I was angling my head differently. Anyway, you gals have convinced me to do one more week before relaxing at the end of the year.

I didn't even have to click your attached images to see that there is a definite difference in your hair, length and thickness. See you again on December 1st
I saw this too.
Welcome to the challenge
Your question is something i have asked myself when i attempt to do other mainstay challenges "how will i know what exactly is working if i am doing som many other things combined for example, taking supplements, using 1 or more growth aids, exercising, scalp massages and all the other techniques that claims to speed up hair growth.
Well I will post my pics later this evening. If i see a difference in my hair length in comparison to the original pics i posted at the start of the challenge then i will know that it is the 7 days inversion that has made the difference because currently i'm not taking no supplements and i only used my LG two of the seven days of doing the challenge.
Welcome to the challenge.
I hope all newcomers will like it here and get results as needed.

This is supposed to work in a week. Despite all of the other things ppl may have going on, if this gives you an inch or close to it in a week, that should trump the growth that all the other aides ppl use. Even MN is not going to give you an inch in a week.

I'm still working on my selfie length checks so don't laugh at me! The first picture is from Nov 1st and the last two are from Nov 8th.
The very ends of my hair (in that section) made it to 16" but most of it is around the 15.5"/15/75" mark. Which could be their full inch since in pic 1 only the very ends made it to 15."
I'm not a huge length checker so I've randomly checked a few other sections and they're a fuller 16." i.e. what I was trying to show in pic #3 but it's looking like a fail LOL
I will check back in at the end of the month (hopefully with pictures
) to see if that entire section is "16 or more.
Next month I'm looking for 17"

Missed my day 7. But I will make it up. I plan to stay with this challenge. Next time I will use warm oil with the massage. My hair is doing really well. There is some growth but I have a lot shrinkage (which works for me until I can do other styles) and I do WNG so I will have wait and see for more noticeable growth.

This is awesome.....glad there is proof and we haven't been hanging upside down in vain. Next month i will definitely try to incorporate massages while i invert. The following month which i January i will use my oil, massage and invert all together that way i can track what hip and what not. Good growing YaniraNaturally

Unfortunately, this time, I'm not sure if I gained much growth. I don't feel much new growth up there, but I will wait it out and do another length check once I wash clothes so I can put my striped night shirt back on. The only difference from this time and last is, 1. Last time, I used sulfur in my peppermint eo, Shea, coconut oil mix, and 2. I was drinking a can of V8 juice daily. Maybe those two pieces were the key to my last inversion growth spurt.

Looks like progress! From looking at my roots I don't think I got much at all so I will measure end of month.

Yep PureSilver you definitely got growth. I felt the same way, would love to continue to do it daily but gotta give it a rest otherwise your body gets used to it and go back to normal growth.
