Me too. I am working on a formula for hair loss. Not suffering from it-just tinkering around. If you are interested, pm me.

Oh my goodness Melodies! Yes I see a big difference. So is it better to use it as a conditioning treatment instead of applying to the scalp?
Girl, your hair is off the chain!!!
Yep, I notice growth in 1-2 weeks. It's amazing!
OMG, Great Growth! I see a lot of growth! :creaturesCongrats, it seems crazy but it does work.
My hair is stronger and more elastic now that I have been using MT. That was my first goal, stronger difficult to break hair. I did an experiment several years ago, I found a naturally straight hair strand and pulled it. I was curious as to what the difference was between our hair besides the obvious. The naturally straight hair was difficult to break it resisted, stretched then broke. Whereas, my hair snapped on the first pull. I wanted my hair to resist, stretch then break. I finally accomplished that. Even with the Cathy Howse moisiturizers/protein conditioner and Aphogee 2-step protein treatment, although healthier I still did not have hair strands that resisted pulling and continued to see breakage from the ends. I didn't have stronger difficult to break hair until MT! I now have whole strands instead of just the ends. It feels unusal and frightening to see whole strands with the white bulb but that is healthy sheeding not breakage.
Even if I never see more growth I will continue to use it to maintain the strength. I thinks its from using it on the length of my hair.
I was taking my sweet time about ordering but I'm going to order today. I just looked at my left temple. omg, it's so much worse! I've been taking biotin, I NEVER wear tight styles, I've been rubbing jojoba mixed with rosemary, lavendar, and cedarwood into my temples every other night and it's totally worse! I even periodically used the shampoo prescribed to me by the derm. I want to cry! Getting old sucks! I've actually decided to go with the megatek since it's so much cheaper, even the shipping. Wish my luck.
Hey there. I think your hair is BEE-YOU-TEE-FULL!!! I wish I could go right back to being natural with the blink of an eye. If it's any consolation, I can see no thin areas at your temples from your pics. Mine are really thin as well (hereditary from mom and maternal grandmother), but I found that leaving it completely alone helps the most. No massaging. No rubbing. No tight doos. Nothing outside of washing. Also, the MT is making it grow back in...it's fuzzy where it was starting to thin out uncomfortably so. I hated wearing my hair away from my face.
NOT ANYMORE!!!
Don't hesitate buying. If you have not already ordered, go ahead. Just use it on your trouble spots (scalp only) and forget about it until the next wash. I dab the tiniest amt on my temple area 2-3 times a week when I remember. Even with sporadic usage, it is working for me.
I am sorry it's stressing you out and I pray that MT works for you like it has for so many others.

(Only about 8 more months until I can have a hamburger with chilli, lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese, ketchup, dill relish, and light parmesan cheese!!! Yaaayyyy for Red Robin hamburgers!!!!)
i just ordered mines early today!!! this stuff is for horses lol and i'm putting it in my hairerplexed. how am i suppose to explain this to my husband?
also i'm looking to take garlic tabs with this and maybe garlic conditioner if i can find it on this island. which i doubt?
OK, so you guys broke me down. I ordered 2 bottles of mega-tek today. I am expecting great things but I have one question....how long did 1 bottle last you (I need to know if I can be in this thing for the long term
JustKiya,
How do you do that? If it has the consistency of conditioner, do you just squirt half a teaspoon on your fingers and massage your scalp.
I'm asking because I was invisioning parting my hair in like 10 sections and applying between each part with would require more than a teaspoon.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!
Heh, actually I never really 'tried' to do it, it's just how much I ended up using.
I think what helps me the most is that my MT is in a tub - so when I use it, I just dab the tip of my finger in, and rub that along my part until it's gone - so I'm using the ABSOLUTE minimum.
My hair is usually parted fro two strand twists, since that's how I normally wear my hair, and I just MT between the parts.
Lemme go and dig up my pics, again. BRB.
ETA:
I started out with a level half tablespoon:
And when I was done (and I actually tried to use A LOT - my head was throbbing when I was done, and I haven't felt that throb/rush since I first started using it) I had this much left:
1/2 tablespoon = 1.5 teaspoons, and based on that - I'd guess I used about 1/2 a teaspoon, maybe. And yes, I have a big head.
Girl, don't! Get the box, take your MT and dump it into another container. Always keep em guessin'!
Rhapsdy, you are speaking SO much truth about edges - I realized this morning, as I was parting my hair, how much my edges have filled out (without me even noticing) because when I made my part - I HAD to actually PART MY TEMPLE! I was just grinning and cheesing at myself in the mirror! I haven't had enough hair to blow on, much less PART there in - ages. AGES.
And, I have to admit, even when I don't MT my scalp, I DO make the effort to dab a bit on my hairline, since I don't have to disturb my hair to do that.
Hey does anyone know the effect of using MT/OCT on hennaed hair?

This is definitely what I'm hoping for! I'm new to the boards, I've already become a PJ and jumped on the MT, OCT, WEN, and Hairveda bandwagons, but if so many of you have seen your edges filling in as a result of using MT, I guess I don't regret it so much.
How have you been using your MT to get results? Do you apply it daily? To wet or dry hair? Do you mix it with anything? Any advice would be appreciated!
Daily, dry hair, mixed with castor and vit. E oil and SAA and Honeyquat. Once I use up this current tubful, I think I'm going to go to a new mix, though - I definitely think that mixing less is more - so my new mix will just be MT, castor oil and emu oil. I'm hoping those oils will nicely compliment the growth and thickening properties of MT.
Hmmm sounds like fun lol. I might try mixing mine with my Hairveda Cocasta Oil whenever it gets here. I'm getting a relaxer done on Wednesday so I'm holding off to apply my MT until after that, I get nervous having anything other than moisturizers in my hair before I get a relaxer.
What's SAA?
