Hello Everyone!! Finally After Months Of Reviewing The Boards I Had To Join!! I Spend So Much Time Here, I Feel It's My Second Job! I Have Received So Much Insight From You Lovely Ladies And Tried To Use Your Suggestions, But I Still Have So Many Questions!!
First Off, My Goal Right Now Is To Grow Healthy / Long Hair! I Am Natural - Fully - After About A Year Of Transitioning And Finally The Big Chop To Let Go Of My Old Permed Ends. I Am So Angry At Myself For Not Taking The Care I Should Have Of My Hair B/c I Feel I Have Lost So Much Growth Over The Past Two Years From Not Maintaining My Ends As I Should.
I Purchased Mtg About A Month Ago And I Currently Take The Following Supplements ( Not As Regular As I Should) But As Of 06/01/05 I Am On A Mission ( I Guess The Reason I Finally Decided To Join)
Prenatal Pill/b- Complex 150/ Lcysteine 1000mg/methionine 500mg/vitamin C 2000mg/ Biotin 5mg/panthothenic Acid 500mg/alfalfa 1500mg/brewers Yeast 3000mg/ Lecithin 1325mg/dessicated Liver 680mg/ Msm Powder Mixed W/ Oj 3000mg And I " Try" To Take At Least 6-8oz Of Carrot Juice Daily.
And Must I Add I Am Also Trying To Gain Weight So I Noticed Some Of The Supplements Are Recommended For Both Hair Growth As Well As Appetite Weight/ Gain So That's Why So Many!
As I Stated I Have Read So Much Here And I Feel I Have Learned A Lot But Right Now By Biggest Question Is The Mtg And Cysteine. The Jury Is Still Out For Me.. My Stylist Cut My Hair To A Little Below Chin Length 5/13/05 And I Could Swear It Seemed To Be Longer When I Got My Press 05/27/05 But I Could Not Tell For Sure And I Didnt' Want To Be To Excited. I Would Love As Anyone Would To Get 1 Inch Per Month.
My Questions:
* I Am Having Issues With The Mtg And I Have To Ask How Are You Using It?? I Don't Hear Anyone Saying They Get The Greasy Aftermath That I Have Been Experiencing. I Purchased A Color Applicator From Sallys With A Needle Hole And I Part The Hair And Apply Only To The Scalp But After My Hair Feels Like A Jeri Curl. I Really Don't Want To Lose My Bounce And Body By Applying Because After My Presses My Hair Has A Lot Of Body To It But As Soon As I Apply MtG - That Is History. I Never Experienced This Greasiness With Wgho..
Am I Applying To Much? Do You Guys Just Dab And Rub Or Are You Applying To The Scalp Fully?
* Cysteine.. Are You Really Seeing Results?? I Started Out Taking 2000mg But Cut Down To 1000mg To Have More Product And For Fear I Was Taking Too Much. Should I Up It Back To 2000?? I Also See Poohbear Is Selling Hers So Again That Gives Me Doubts..
All Ladies Who Are Getting An Inch Or More Monthly What Are You Staples/ Regimes?
All Info Is As Always Appreciated.. I Will Have To Get My Photo Album Together.
Look Forward To Hearing From You!!!!!

I took 3 a day for about 50 days so far, and my hair still grows the same rate (It sometimes feels like my hair is the same length 
). I've also been using Surge Plus 14 twice a day and it's been 14 days so far and my hair still grows normally...no extra growth or anything. I have one more bottle of L-Cysteine left and I still have some Surge left. I will use this stuff up and that's it for me!
