I think Im still confused..lol.. Im using a PC and trying to upload a profile pic.. :perplexed


Oh okay well in this case to add profile pic (like the one in my siggy of my curly hair) you go to User CP on left side, then edit your profile pic and go from there to browse and save changes once you loaded your pic. If you want Avatar pic (like the one I have of my hair straightened then you select edit avatar pic and follow same directions
 
MJ Checking in...just applied my MN/ Sulfer/dr. Miracles Gro oil to my scalp...my head feels so cold is crazy, very weird feeling but I hope it's working... I'm going to have my sister in law braid the front of my hair on the weekends because this mix make my hair feel And look nasty...I'm so excited to see some growth

ugh, why do i have to be someone who wants instant gratification! I keep reminding myself its been less than a week, its not gonna happen that fast :lol:.... So I have decided i will use the MN for the rest of the year, and if nothing happens by then i'll be:cry2::wallbash: but if i even get 2 inches of extra growth from it i will be:superbanana:.

I know exactly how you feel... I keep telling myself a watchEd pot never boils lol... Question...are you relaxed and I thought you couldn't use it long term, you had to take a break...like 2 months on, 2 months off?

Hello Ladies.

This is my first update (and I think a good one). I started my MN mixture on Sunday, April 29th. I took my "before" picture on 5/3/19. I took a progress picture on 5/19/12. (See attached photos). I gave myself a touch-up (relaxer) on Sunday, May 13th and I stopped using my MN mixture a week before and didn't resume using it until a week after my touch-up. MY HAIR GREW ONE INCH IN LIKE 2+ WEEKS! And, I dusted my ends before I took my picture on the 19th. It's possible that this was during a period of a growth spurt. This is what I keep telling myself because this stuff is unbelievable. I just added MT to my regime last week. I used it as a protein treatment and I also made a mixture with JBCO. Just in a week's time, my hair is much fuller/thicker. I just gave myself a touch up and it looks like I'm 4 weeks post relaxer. WOW! Waist length, here I come!!!!!

Holy Crap!!! That's some super crazy growth! congrats, at this rate you might be WL by the end of the yr!!! I hope I get growth like that, I might not ever stop using this stuff, I'm so excited for my touch up now!!! You hair not only grew, but your ends OH EM GEE they look fab!!!

U have to go online, not on the app.

Thanks! Wow Veeda that's amazing! Now how do you mix the MT and the jbco with the MN, and if not, how exactly and how often are you using the MT? Thanks!

I'm not sure if your supposed to do it or not, but my plan is to apply everyday for the rest of the year regardless, if i take a break it will be in january most likely....and no im natural.

ETA: if i do take a break, i will at LEAST not do it til late this year like october maybe, not really sure.
 
@Veeda awesome growth... Did you apply the MN directly or you mixed it up. When you say you applied it to your temples - did you message it in through your whole head.

@jprayze, do you by any chance know how MN works? does it work throughout the scalp regardless on where it is topically applied. If it does, this could be the reason I'm seeing growth on the right side of my hair although I do not apply MN to it?

Update: still applying MN everyday. I made a new mix with 1:1 MN and leave in conditioner with 1 tbsp castoroil. No more oiliness for me. :yep:

When I bleached my crown from root to tip it all fell off and not break off gradually. I left it ALL in the sink. But somehow other parts of my head started to shed which made me cry daily. I only applied bleach to my crown but it affected my who head. I think once one part of the scalp is damaged or healthy if affects the entire thing. The scalp is a complex thing.
 
Checking in. Today was relaxer day so I haven't applied my MN mix in the last 10days. Will go back to my regime of applying 2x/week starting Tues 5/29.
 
What is your current length? 1" from waist
How long have you used in MN? Since 4/20 2012
How will you use your MN? mixed equal parts full tube of MN 2%, Cortizone, Capzacin mixed with JBCO, alkaline water added 20 drops Sage & Tea Tree oil
What frequency will you apply it? 2-3x per week
Any other growth aids that you are using? No, want to judge the progress.
Anything you would like to add? So far I grew 3/4" in 10 days from when I started. Wanted a lil boost to reach WL for my b'day 5/30...will do length check then and report back.

I plan to apply everyday for the rest of the year too, but I will stop applying directly soon and starting mixing with something. I really think I want to get the Kid's Organics Growth Creme that chavascandy uses on YouTube. If you all havent seen her results, check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7Q2NxEadzQ&feature=relmfu I just looked at her latest video and she just cut 6 inches off her hair...I can't imagine having 6 inches to cut and it's still a good length. She actually said MN grew her hair too fast...Can there be such a thing?

Sweet, thanks...I'm definitely going to keep using it to then! I'll go until my and my bfs birthdays in sept and then start back up until our daughters birthday in dec! I have heard you should take a break before you get your touch up, like wait a week before and a week after so I will be doing that... Imagine, SL in January to WL in December! I'm so excited now! Great Challenge
 
Just checking in. Applied my mix last night. Can't wait to see the pics next weekend with the first length check. Hope everyone has a nice holiday weekend!

Update: still applying MN everyday. I made a new mix with 1:1 MN and leave in conditioner with 1 tbsp castoroil. No more oiliness for me. :yep:
I mixed an entire tube of MN
Entire jar of BB Super Gro (Blue container)
A few tablespoons of JBCO
A few tablespoons of Doo Gro Stimulating Growth Oil

And yes, I massaged it into my temples. I tried using just the MN and got THE WORST HEADACHE!

After this batch, I'm going to do MN, MT & JBCO.
 
mamaore It would seem that it would work only where you apply it, but that doesn't seem to be the case? I'm going to do some research and see what I can find out!
I was thinking the same thing; that it would only work where you apply it but I'm sure that once the body temp. heats the oils up that it filters through your scalp. Plus, you body absorbs everything you put on your skin anyway you know? I'm still tripping at my results. I'm going to take pics every two weeks and post. I'm going to post my temple pics after I finish responding.
 
eocceas, great progress in 10 days.
Update: applied my MN last night as usual. I'm really seeing growth. I'll be 4 weeks post on Sunday and my hair looks like 8 weeks post. I'm second guessing myself that maybe the last relaxer left me underprocessed, but I seriously dont think so. I'm going to take a wet hair picture on my next wash day and compare with my avatar pic. jprayze, is the length check next weekend?

For the ladies who have seen accelerated growth, how is this going to affect your TU schedule?

Mjon912, Gurl, I'm still trippin'. I'm thinking of every excuse as to what OTHER natural occurrence happened to cause my hair to grow an inch in 2+ weeks. But, these products are really working. Before I noticed the length, I noticed my temples filling in. My temples were thinning out by the day because I wrap my hair every night. In 2 weeks, I noticed new hairs growing in my temples; especially the little gray hairs. LOL. I'm going to post those pics in a few minutes.
 
Thanks! Wow Veeda that's amazing! Now how do you mix the MT and the jbco with the MN, and if not, how exactly and how often are you using the MT? Thanks!

marta9227, I do the following:

I mixed an entire tube of MN
Entire jar of BB Super Gro (Blue container)
A few tablespoons of JBCO
A few tablespoons of Doo Gro Stimulating Growth Oil

I mixed this all up into a separate Ziplock container. I applied it every night. And if I wore a ponytail, I would apply it in the mornings as well.

mamaore I know for me personally, since I don't stretch, I have to relax more often now that I use MN. For the ladies who stretch for a long time, it might not make as much of a difference, I'm assuming.
 
Hi I'm a lurker of this thread and I was wondering if MN causes shedding like megatek does because of the accelerated growth?

You know what I'm not sure as I just started using it but maybe one of the other ladies will chime in
