Inversion Challenge November 2013-November 2014

I measured my hair today and it looks like I got 0.5 to 0.75 inches of growth! I only did the inversion method 5 out of 7 days. Maybe I would have gotten a full inch if I did it for the last two days...who knows!

Click on attached pics to see a comparison between Nov. 4th and Nov. 12th...

***I KNOW that it's only recommendation you invert once a month***

Has anyone done it more than once, say twice in a month and gotten double the growth results?
 
OK, first PIC is NOV 1st. I was two or three days into inverting. Washed and blown out

Second and third pics are Nov 8th. Blown out or flat ironed. Don't remember.

Fourth and Fifth pics are is Nov 13th after getting a Dominican blowout.

Can I join in? I did inversion this week but forgot to take pictures and didn't even measure. Even if it doesn't work it'll help keep me on top of oil massaging my hair. This week I used Jojoba oil.

Natural/Relaxed: Natural as of 5 years this month
Current Length: scraping MBL and I do mean scraping. I shouldn't even be claiming it with how much I have to contort my body just to get there.
Goal Length: HL 2016/17
Oil of Choice: Any oil I have on hand. I recently stocked up so I have an array to choose from.

Day 3- massaged in Sprout Day 4- spritzed with tea and massaged in my Njoy oil. Over halfway there! Didn't take before pics with these braids but I think I'm noticing something going on. Usually day 5 is when I notice a difference.
 
I'm starting my 7 days tonight for the month of November. I finished up last month on 10/28. I should be on track with everyone else for 12/1.

I'm restarting tonight. I only did the one night. I missed the last two nights. Putting a reminder on my phone.
 
I'm restarting tonight. For two nights in a row, I had intolerable itchies up there; I literally lost sleep one night from scratching up there so much. I don't know if it is because of the new oil I've been using (WGHO in conjunction with Miconazole) or because I've been doing the inversion, but I found a teeny tiny scab on my scalp yesterday and decided to take a brief break.

I hope the itching was from all the growing my hair intends on doing, LMAO.
 
Day 3 with no oil again.

I'll oil actually starting Saturday or Sunday. Probably Sunday... It'll be my pre-poo.
 
Challengers.....Ok so i had an interesting conversation with @ImFrotastic about the inversion method and i just wanted to highlight her youtube video that speaks of warning signs and health concerns while doing the method. For those interested please click the link to watch the video. While many persons may be doing the method without any issues there are a few persons who have had headaches, nauseousness and dizziness so this video is worth watching to see alternative ways to do the inversion method and risks involved.

K.....so I watched the video...

Well... I was doing the bed method one for 4 days and it gave me some HUGE headache. Obviously, it was the worst method out of all....
I will try again the inversion method tonight, but in a better position !! (I'm a little scared tho ..)
 
I did it yesterday before going to sleep. Laid on my stomach and put my head off the aide of the bed while playing Candy Crush lol.

That was day 4.

Day 5 today will be with oil.
 
Even though it's not end of the month I don't see any growth more than what I normally have so it more than likely didn't work for me. I will still see at the end of the month.

outspokenwallflower I mixed my WGHO with MN and had terrible itches too. I stopped doing that. It seems like although both products are good for growth, they don't work well together.

PlainJane Did you heat up your jbco? I tried it with no heat and I didn't yield any results. Trying again in December.

I'm not officially part of this challenge, but I was following the thread and tried it for a week. I'm mainly doing it to fill in my sides and nape. It didn't work. I massaged my scalp for 1 minute with jbco and hung off the side of the bed for 4 minutes. I'll try again next month with a different position and heating up the oil beforehand.
