I was puzzled by MSM so I decided to do some digging. I heard how some raved about MSM and wondered why I wasn't getting the same resluts even though I was using it too. These results were: softer, silkier new growth, and a faster rate of growth to name a few. Hmmm...
So I think I have the mystery solved (and I am going out on a limb here but I would like to hear back from those who have used MSM).
Here is my discovery: you have to use OptiMSM to get good results. MSM was discovered by a scientist in the 1980's (Robert J. Herschler). He patented his discovery into a brand called OptiMSM. This is the purest form. Any other MSM that you buy without that OptiMSM brand (logo) will not be guaranteed to work. It is sort of like when you go to the drugstore and find a brand name and a generic brand. The generic works but we all know that it is not really the same thing.
I used MSM from a company, that shall remain nameless. This MSM said that it was the real thing but I didn't notice softer, silkier new growth. Then a lady on the board raved about a brand called kaire MSM so I ordered it and have been taking it for 2 1/2 weeks now. I now have softer and silkier new growth and I seem to be outgrowing my trim already (see my sig). I am nine weeks post relaxer. Before taking this OptiMSM my hairdresser told me to get a retouch at 12 weeks post relaxer. The way this MSM is working, I don't think that my hair will need a relaxer in another three weeks so I will have to play it by ear...
When I received my kaire MSM, I looked at the bottle and noticed the OptiMSM logo on the bottle. The proverbial light bulb went off (sort of like this
). That was it! OptiMSM is the key.
I would like to hear from those of you using MSM. Are you noticing good results without using OptiMSM? This is kind of an experiment for me
.

Thanks for reading and hope this helps.
