I havent had any adverse reactions and I have up the usage from once to twice a week. I plan to goto everyday if all goes well...
 
Carmen,

How many days a week are you washing your hair while using twice a week?
 
I wash once per week. Sometimes I go upto 10/14 days in the winter or down to 5 days in the summer. But Im too lazy to wash any more often than that :D Plus my hair grows better when its a lil "dirty". Since I started using the MTG I have washed closer to once a week...
 
Bumping for updates! I just ordered a trial size bottle for $3.25 from saddleuptack.com. It can't smell any worse than the Jamaican Black Castor Oil that I brought back a couple of years ago.
 
Hi yall,
I've only been using the Shapley's for one solid week. Got about 1/4 inch of growth already. I've noticed that my hair seems much stronger, and the breakage has diminished considerably. I applied the MTG. It had a much healthier looking gloss. It also seems to serve as a humidity barrier. I a wash and set last week,then in the middle of the week, I applied some of my curl activator gel, and my air didn't crinkle up! I use it on my scalp, and a smidge on my hair twice a week. Once right after I wash on Saturday, and then on Wednesday's.

Rock on Shapley's!!! :D

1/4 inch in a week is pretty good. How fast does your hair usually grow Lolacurl?

A humidity barrier is another plus for MTG. Anyone else experience this?
 
Update: I haven't used mine since last week. I put in a relaxer over the weekend and will wait until next week, to start using it again. Let me reiterate, I used a Q-tip to apply MTG to my scalp. I had been reading alot about using products in moderation for best effects (except for conditioner--ya know what I mean?) For the time I did use MTG, my hair felt softer at the nape of my neck and not as brittle as it had before. The smell was OK by morning.

I just had my daughter's hair braided and was wondering if it would be OK to apply MTG to her scalp while she's in braids? I heard that applying oil based products to the base of your braids causes that white build up that causes breakage and is hard to comb out when you take your braids down. If it's OK to use this on her scalp, do you think washing/rinsing once a week would be good?
 
Hi Bee,

This past weekend I put braids in my hair and will wear braids for the next 14 months. Every two months taking the braids out and then putting them in again. I have started putting the oil on my scalp and I have not had a problem but it has only been a few days. I don't put that much on the scalp not saturating the scalp but enough to keep it moisturized. I hope that helps. When you take your daughters braids out you may want to use take creme or something and detangle her hair before you wash it. I hope this helps. I will keep you updated about my hair too.

I can't say, I wear my hair in flat twists daily. That would really be a cool bonus though!!
 
i got mine in two days ago, so today is day #3 for my usage of the mtg. I am applying mine at nite on dry hair and scalp. I them put my baggie on and a satin scarf. I condition wash in the morning and that's it. So far i have noticed that my hair is softer, my hair also has a healthy sheen to it as well and i love it. The first nite the smell was unbearable but now it is not so bad and i am committed to using this product pretty much every nite. i will add the use of shealoe butter in the am after the condition wash. I'll keep you guys updated.
 
I will be using this product as a prepoo probably....just another product for the stinky challenge.... :D can't wait til it gets to me!

Hey Ms. Isis,
Sorry so long in responding! You are my hair inspiration. My hair texture is just like yours, only not as long yet!! :D.

My hair is usually the typical 1/4 inch a month.

Ive used it for going on 3 weeks, and my stylist has already noticed a difference. She was shocked when I reminded her that I'd only had a touch up four weeks ago!!!

I'm still noticing it as a barrier to humidity...I love this stuff!

I can't wait until the summer get here-only about 1 month and a few days-so that I can start using this stuff. Is everyone still seeing phenomenal growth?
 
My hair never grows but it's growing now, and I'm sure it's because of Shapley's and Surge 14. I updated my fotki today with comparison pics.
 
I am seeing great results. I can tell because I had a blow out done a few days ago and the back finally "lays" on my collar bone, and I don't have to barely stretch that muchfor it to go pass shoulder. When I say the back, I'm talking about the lower back half of my hair. Before starting to use MTG, the back had to be stretched to touch the shoulder. So I say about 1.5 inches in 1 1/2 months and normally my hair only grows about 1/2 inch a MONTH!!! :)

My sides are growing too (my sides and bangs grow fast) but my sides started at my chin and now barely stretched it touches my collar bone. So my hair is going to grow in layers but I don't mind (great dilemma to have)!
Another bonus is my hair is stronger and shedding has subsided greatly, shinier, too!

The ultimate was the cheesey grin on my husband's face and noticing the results. He said whatever I'm doing it's working and that he was proud of me!!! (sniff sniff)

I've been using this stuff for a week and the thickness of my hair has increased. :eek: I already have thick hair, but DANG! I know this will increase my hair growth if it hasn't grown already...I can feel the naps underneath the roots.... :lachen: I'm impressed! :grin:
 
Ladies!
This is is stinkiest stuff I've EVER smelled. Are you guys applying this stuff straight or are you mixing it with something so as to disguise the smell?
The smell of the sulfur is still in my nose but I don't think I could leave this in my hair. This stuff is worse than Glovers or Sulfur 8. It may help with my itchy scalp but I need to be able to handle the smell so it will work.

I mixed the MTG with my Sulfer8, Glovers, WGO and essential oils concoction so it's not as bad as just using it alone.
 
This weekend I succumbed and purchased the MTG. The lady at the feed store said that lots of ladies use the product for hair growth and it really does work. I must say that the smell is pretty bad but if it works, oh well. I've applied it daily since Saturday and washed my hair on Monday night. My hair was mega soft and silky and very conditioned. I've experienced no scalp sensitivity at all. So far so good!
 
are most people using the oil or the conditioner?

if so which do you like better....Im going to break down and get this...My thickness has doubled so now its time for the length to come...
 
I'm using the Original M-T-G OIL. The conditioner does not have the same claims to it as the oil (from the website).

When I first started using this, my hair got so soft, it felt like it was melting away, I've gotten used to it and it's a wonderful feeling now! It's soft and not shedding.

Ok girl you sold me....

I will get the oil...Im wearing a sew-in so it will be easier for me to use the oil and get it between the braids...does it leave bad build up?
 
After reading this thread, I'm seriously thinking of getting this product.

But if the active ingredients in this product and saw that it was Sulfur. Do you think that the results would be the same as using the Sulfur 8?

Just wondering. :look:
 
You ladies have been talking about this stuff and I was thinking this was something I never heard of. My mother use to use MTG on my hair when I was younger its not hard for me to get either b/c they sale it in our beauty supply...So maybe I will pick back up on it.....since you guys are getting some great progress
 
I can't really say about the build up cause I CO wash every other day at the most, usually it's every day but I'm trying to see how the growth goes by not washing/rinsing my scalp as often.

My advice would be this: if you purchase the product, use VERY sparingly because it is a very oily product and a little DOES go a LONG way. I use a color applicator bottle and accidently got a little heavy handed yesterday, I had this stuff running down my neck for about an hour, I had to take a towel and dab to absorb the excess (reminded me of my scary jeri days) :eek:

Sugarplum...I think it might yield similar results to the Sulfur 8, I've never used it but the active ingredients in both are the Sulfur. I believe the major difference would stem from the difference of the concentration amounts of the Sulfur. Sulfur8's Sulfur Content is only 2%. I do not know what the content is of the M-T-G but from what I've read, most treatments for horses have a much higher concentration than what you'd find for human use for penetration purposes.

So the question is....what kind of growth will we get with the higher concentration of Sulfur? :scratchch :look:

That's my two cents worth...and I'm sticking to it!! :)
