hmmm I don't notice any sort of bulb, but then again it's hard to see through my tears (J/K). On a more positive note, my hair feels thicker and looks fuller AND I've got about 1/4 new growth!

Long hairs with the bulb, seems to be shedding. But shedding normally should only be 100 hairs a day, and I don't like to see that. As I put in an earlier thread, I have a thyroid disease and I don't like to see any more hairs than necessary. So mahabringaraj helps with that. It heps with shedding and breakage, the long hairs and the short. I know that hair growth is accelerated with this product, but I've found that my hair growth is still accelerated, but I am not losing hairs like some of you are complaining about because of that oil I'm using. I don't know how it works but it does.

Also if you're a natural and your hair is still shedding, make sure you're putting enough moisture on your hair, starting up the shaft. Some of the MT or OCT may touch that area and if you're protein resistent then you want to have moisture, moisture moisture in that area. I know I do.

Do you use the mahabringaraj oil daily or do you use it & wash it out? Do you apply it over the CT? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks! HAPPY HAIR GROWIG!

I received both the OCT and MegaTek shampoo and rinse yesterday. Before I went to sleep I misted my scalp and applied the OCT. Today I decided that I wanted to wash my hair. So I used the MT Shampoo and I give it a 8/10. The shampoo worked up a very nice lather and it didn't leave my hair matted or tangled like other shampoos I tried in the past. Next I applied OCT to my entire hair shaft and scalp again. I left it on for about five minutes then deep conditioned my hair for an hour. Last, I used the MT Creme Rinse and ladies I have nothing but compliments for this product. I absolutely LOVE the MT Creme Rinse!!!! I literally watched my tangles MELT away under the water and my hair felt so SOFT. I can't fully describe what this product did to my hair, but is was A-MA-ZING(In my best Shaun T voice.) The Creme Rinse is definitely a keeper 
I decided to airdry my hair in braids, and I hope it comes out ok... because I am sooo not used to airdying... but that's a whole nother story!

Background: My hair is more or less relaxed. 
I use Curlaway which acts totally different on the hair than boxed non-lye relaxers. I can wear my hair
either straight/roller set or in a relaxed wave pattern look without the need for rollers. If do not continue applications, my hair will return to it's original
texture in 6-8 weeks.
The OCT system landed on my door step today, so tonight I gave it a try. All three products smell pleasant and are very thick. I decided to clarify before
using the system and followed the ladies suggestions to put the poo and cell therapy in applicator bottles, which worked perfectly...thanks everyone.
The minute the OCT Color Therapy hit my hair I could feel an immediate difference. The chemicals in the product raised or ruffed up my hair strands...was
kinda funny to feel that alteration in texture. I proceeded with all products and followed directions to the T.
I did not find the creme rinse to leave my hair silky at all nor did I experience my tangles melting away, in fact I followed the creme rinse with a moisturizing
conditioner which immediately helped. I will probably use this approach if these products continue react the same on my hair.
As I was detangling, I could tell that the tinsel strength of my hair had been altered....drastically. My hair simply moved with me as I finger combed, did not
snap nor snag. I am air drying now and I tell you my curls and waves are popping....
.
Probably with continued use my hair will experience that silky, tangle melting feeling over time ....but even if we don't, I like the fact that my hair did not
snap, I like the fact that my hair is drying quickly and softly with very minimal products on it and overall I am pleased.
I'm gonna play around with it but right now I am leaning toward using these products once a week (I wash 2x per week) or once every two weeks.
Gonna buy a camera and start trackin' my progress.
My many thanks to each and everyone for your contributions and support.
See y'all soon...:Rose:

Use it daily or every other day if I'm lazy. Then I use it the in my prepoo along with my other oils. I put it on my scalp that day, and the whole hair shaft too. W/ Daily or every other day use I do not wash it out as I only wash my hair once a week. It can only help as it aids in hair retention and hair growth (mahabringaraj). Some people are adding jojoba, and other oils, so what's wrong with a little maha? It hasn't hurt my application. Just a few drops a do ya.

Sorry I didn't answer the other part. I mostly put it on first and then the Ct, but sometimes I just mix some in with the Ct if I'm lazy. Mine is more a CT/MT mix combined with a little maha in there.

Well it's been 2 weeks now and my hair is noticeably thicker and growing FAST!!! I am actually thinking about transitioning since my new growth has really nice defined ringlets and the relaxer demarcation is very strong (from all the protein). Is anyone else thinking about this too?

myfasthairgrowth.com has it for $5.99, I'll be buying mine there from now on, as only a little is needed. I bought a bigger bottle from somewhere else online...I can't remember without checking my receipt off the top of my head. The other I remember, because I was just looking at it.

Ok- raise your hand if you're a fuzzhead.I swear that with my natural hair and the constant NG, I feel like I'm a continuous fuzz ball!!
My NG seems really strong now. Although it's softer, when double-stranded, it feels strong like rope. It's also appearing noticeably different from my older hair. Anyone else experiencing this?
Can you describe the difference?
TIA

Well I wash and do that stuff once a week. Usually as we get closer to the end of the week my hair feels oily and it feels like it's time to be washed... It's still bouncy! From doing the whole OCT system on Sunday! I even put a little Phyto Shine Serum Spray on it...and some Amla oil on the ends when I wrapped it. I haven't had to flat iron other than the initial time. I love it! I wish I could work it into my schedule... so if you haven't seen my other post about "Successful Wash and Go's" please go and read it and help a sista out...LOL! That way I could incorporate OCT more into my schedule than having to wash/blowdry/flat iron every other day!

The front of my hair the ng is silky and riglets, the middle is fuzzy and the back is wavy. My hair is growing!!!! My ng is manageable! I am liking this OCT. I DC once a week with OCT on my scalp and the moisture on my hair. I know that I don't have the time to apply every night so once a week it is.

Are your strands "fine"? Mine are. I can have Cell Therapy on my scalp for days and days, but only a couple of minutes on my hair. You're just wanting to get all you can from the Cell Therapy). Don't overdo it. You can apply it to your scalp the next day and encourage the growth you're looking for.
Ive been using the Cell Therapy and the rinse for about a month now. The first time I used it, i put the cell therapy on my scalp and on dry hair. that was a no no. my scalp was fine but my hair strands felt like straw. so then I would just apply it to my scalp every other night (sometimes wet and sometimes dry) and then wash the following day, cell therapy, then cream rinse. hair was super soft. every once in a while I wouldnt have enough slip so i'd use some of my regular cond. on it no problem. the other day i re upped on my cell therapy and this time in the instructions it says you can use it all over wet hair overnight, so im like hey lemme try that. i spray bottle my hair with just water and apply the oct to scalp and hair, bunned, covered, went to bed. man when i woke up that next morning my hair was crunchy and crusty. so now i know. pretty much only apply to scalp and full head only when washing. sometimes its a trial and error kind of thing. although its the same chemical make up, people's hair reacts differently to things.

I haven't measured or anything since I started using the MT because that kind of stuff drives me crazy if I do it too often. I have been measuring once per month at a set time. I never weigh myself either, I can tell where I am by standing nude in front of a full length mirror, I have 5 of them in my Master bath!! LOL (Keeps me in check, that's another tread)
I stretched my hair out for my son to see, he's my visual checker and his eyes
bugged out of his head!! LOL.... I take that as a good sign!! LOL

Yeah, I had to ease back on the measuring too - I can and do get a wee bit neurotic about such things. I can tell it's growing though, as it's falling INTO my eyes when I wash my hair, and - that's never happened before. :lol

Well, I got up this morning after my wash 'n go affair with The Ovation system last night to a mass of tight curls. I had decided
to just air dry and tie it all up.
As I was spraying distilled water on my locks, I could pick up a distinct chemical smell in the water dripping on my face. So me
and 'The Hair' had a conversation about this new adventure. 'The Hair' reminded me that the chemicals in the poo had raised and
ruffed up 'The Hair' on contact and suggested that I had in essence applied a liquid shock to 'The Hair'.
Maybe that's what the system does..shock the hair and scalp into that growing phase the company touts so much.
At any rate, the tinsel strength from using the Cell Therapy is outstanding. I could not believe the elasticity in my hair and
'The Hair' seemed somewhat pleased...so that product is a keeper for me.
I've only used natural/organic poos and conditioners for years now, so I'm gonna stick with that instead of The Ovation
poo and Creme Rinse, the chemicals are simply too strong for 'The Hair'.
Miss Vee, I like you regimen of DC once a week with cell therapy on the scalp and moisture on the strands. I'm gonna
adopt that with a rotating modification...thanks so much for sharing. I can use a portion of the system and receive benefits
from treatment without 'The Hair' being unhappy.
Now, I hope 'The Scalp' is listening to this conversation...

Hi shocol,
Well- I have double-stranded twists most of the time. My twists have two different diamters from root to shaft. So, the twists start out fat and as they work their way down to my older hair they get thinner. My hair wasn't damaged and was fine before I used OCT, but the new growth is so much thicker, it's noticeable...

It's been about 5 weeks for me and my hair is acting crazy. Growing and thick. It's the most I've gotten in 5 weeks ever. I just ordered my 2nd bottle of MT I'm sticking with it.

My hair is so thick like when I had the BioIonic, and growing long. But I figure since I co-wash frequently I would use the creme rinse everyone keeps raving about to keep the tangling under control. I am waiting for the Cloud Nine to arrive. Until then I have been putting it on my scalp every day and washing and re-MTing about every 3 days. If the creme rinse works well I am thinking very hard about transitioning. I would only transition w/o BCing. But it is hard to resist the "creamy crack" because lord knows I think I need it right about now. Oh, decisions, decisions. It' nice to have such a delima.
Well, I had to do it. The PJ in me took over and I ordered the OCT system last Friday. Today I used it for the second time, and I'm a little discouraged. I used the system as directed and then put in my own leave-in , some Qhemet detangling creme, then I blew it dry, as I usually do. My hair does not have that silky feel that everybody keeps talking about. I was expecting to feel the softness that my Aveda Damage Remedy gives me, but it actually feels a little on the drier side. Now I do have fine hair, and I was careful to apply the cell therapy just to the scalp. I'm wondering if I should have clarified before starting the system??
On the up side, I do feel the strand strength that others have reported. I'm quite sure I just need to give it more time. We'll see how it goes.
