Ok Ladies. My mixture is a very dark green, so green that I can not see through the jars. Mind you, I have two large mason jars that I am using. I think I have enough to last me throughout the rest of this year. So, this means that while I am using one, the other one will still continue to infuse, which means it will be very potent. Since I have so many herbs left, I will start another batch. The only thing I have to do now is get some aloe vera gel, which I will pick up tomorrow.

I am pretty sure that Gro Aut has much to do with the support of Autism. The maker of this product has a loved one with autism as I do and I believe that is how the name came for this one.

If the company uses the term "grow" in its product name, it's mandatory to conduct some type of scientific research to prove the product does make the hair grow. It's a law, I'm not sure of the name. So to avoid that whole process, companies spell "grow" like "gro." This sends the same message to its customers without having to prove that the product actually grows hair.

How many times do we have to check in??
Mine was more of an 'olivey' color. Not dark green, but not especially light either. Mine infused for two weeks.

Are you using the aloe gel too? If you are and you are still itchy, then I guess you may have to just bump it back to every other day. Are you massaging? Maybe the itch is from increased blood flow or stimulation. Also lol what is in your mix? Maybe something doesn't agree with you?
P.S Your hair is growing super fast! Aren't you using MT or something too? Whatever you are doing don't stop lol

No i'm not using MT. I"m using the aloe gel, horsetail, and jojoba oiil, for my last mix I used olive oil, horsetail, and nettle, the nettle may have caused my itching and I also massage daily with it, that could be the itching too. I think the increase in Cardio has helped the growth of my hair, I have been doing cardio everyday and washing every 2 days so i think that has helped, previous when i worked out everyday my hair grew faster without me doing anything to it..

How did I miss this? I was reading about oil infusion all morning and posted about it and come to find out everybody's already doing it
I'll be searching for the right herbs to use in my mix over the next few weeks....is the consensus that jojoba oil is the best oil to use? What about castor or emu oil?

Hey ya'll. I made my mix at the end of July and started applying July 24th. I used coconut oil and I apply either every night or every other night. I haven't really measured but I have to say that I am not seeing much growth. After boiling my mix I let it infuse for 4 days. Maybe I should've spent the extra bucks and gotten jojoba oil. Whaddya think.

I would say jojoba is the best. Olive oil is a close second.

I'm not sure about hair growth because my hair is natural, I don't measure, and I wear it in it's natural state pretty much all the time, so it's hard for me to call...BUT my nails have NEVER been this strong and actually have grown without breaking for the first time in my life, seriously. Even my dad was like "Wow, that' amazing!!!" LOL, and people have actually been complimenting me on my nails thinking that I started going to get manicures and stuff, lol.

Jojoba's the best, but I'd also consider coconut or grapeseed (both cheap and non smelly alternatives to jojoba). LOL@ emu....if you're a millionaire GO FOR IT. Wonderful stuff, but it costs ALOT. If you have some, a dollop in your mix won't hurt anything thing.

Yes, exactly. I thought I was the only one but my nails have been growing like crazy too. My nails never grow and if they do happen to grow they break like 2 seconds later. My nails have been getting pretty long this past month or so and they have not been breaking as easily. The only thing I have been doing differently is using this oil. Guess it's good for nail growth too.
My hair is growing a lot too. I relaxed on 7/8 and I have a lot of newgrowth now. I also had hair cut into a layered bob ( about ear length) and my nape shaved. It was neck length and really damaged. My layers in the back have already grown over the shaved area. My hair usually doesn't grow fast at all but this stuff is working for me.

Grapeseed is good. Thats what I use and I have gotten good results. Got it right from the supermarket.
