Ovation Cell Therapy/Mega-Tek Challenge

[Aggie]

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...

Happy Hair Growin' Everyone...

Sounds like something i'm gonna be doing on dry hair. Thanks for posting.

They are making it sound so urgent...like the system lasts only 30 days and I need to get it right now even though they tell you to use it once a week. I wonder if they know who is who, especially since I said I heard about them through LHCF and they have an idea that some of us use the product more than once a week

P.S. The words were bolded in the email, not by me. I'm going to keep buying it of course 'cause my hair is shooting out of my head like crazy. Has anybody else gotten this email?

 

[vegasQT]

:scratchch Very enteresting. I wish he would of attached a coupon to that email! I wonder what they would send you at the 45 or 60 day mark if you didnt reorder.
At least they act like they want and appreciate your business tho.
The horsey store around the corner where I get my MT, still look at me strange when I go in there...

 

[nomadpixi]

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.

How much are you using LondonDiva? Do you have to use a lot to get results?

Any recommendations for a leave in and moisturizing conditioner with NO protein. My original OCT regi put me into protein overload. TIA.

I got this today too. I am going to give them my feedback.
My hair is doing GREAT!
This is the most amazing product I have ever used on my hair.
Their products do exactly what it says it will do.

If you use the entire system according to the directions, I think you will not experience protein overload. The Ovation System (all 3 products are balanced and you should not experience protein overload whether you are natural or relaxed.

I use mine daily, and I don't leave it in or on my scalp or hair for no more than 2 hours 1x a week.

I think some are going overboard with the products. A little dab and light usage will do ya...and extend the product for normal usage.

I know...I was looking for a code
Eh...they know us LHCF'ers are lovin' this stuff
I need a sugar daddy to support my habit

Yep...great idea from Miss Vee...

Take Care

 

[eshille]

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.

Lady, I have very fine strands...my SO says I have a million of 'em...the poo and condish did harden/dry out my hair. I clarified before
beginning with the Ovation system and we virtually had the same experience.

The second bolded one could be true. Maybe the system works in the reverse of detoxifying the hair, in other words the more you
use the products the more cumulative the effects become until the chemicals saturate the hair shaft to produce that silky effect...
don't know just speculatin'

Much success on your adventure...

I just read the flyer that came with my OCT. The directions for using it seem to be a little different than what it says on the bottle. So I'm going to try it this way with my regular conditioner. We'll see how that goes but here are the instructions for anyone using MT and hasn't gotten this flyer. Let us know if this makes a difference...

To use in the shower: Apply to hair after shampooing with Ovation Color Therapy Shampoo. Use a small amount, enough to coat the hair and work into scalp. Leave on for 3-5 minutes. Apply Ovation Créme Rinse directly over Cell Therapy, rinse together.

I'm only using OCT not the pak so I will use my regular shampoo. Leave OCT in while I shower. Add my conditioner on top of the OCT. Leave that on while I wash my face. Then rinse everything out.

I followed the directions on the flyer, I didn't even look at the bottles lol.

I plan to use CT following those same directions (in rotation w/Miss Vee's suggestion) but using my regular hair care products.

Given it's a protein treatment, I've been spending time culling those protein products I have to the top cabinet and focusing on
nothing but moisturizing products ...NO protein... and I gotta get ta buyin'....quick....

This is developing into quite an adventure for 'The Hair' and I.

Hi January...

I wish I could use the entire system but since that's not an option for me, I plan to walk very causiously while using CT.

I am so pleased with that product, I was justa grinnin' as I was detangling this morning...and my locks were jumpin'...

Thanks so much for recommending these products, I will continue to use the CT as long as 'The Scalp' is in agreement,
'cause 'The Hair' was lovin' it after I applied moisturizing products.

Take Care

I have been misreading the directions on the bottle. Mine says:
"... leave on for 3-5 min. Follow with Creme Rinse.

That's it. That's all it says. I was rinsing the CT and then applying the Creme Rinse. The Creme Rinse bottle says "No leave in time required."

 

[january noir]

Interesting... this part differs from what my bottle says. The bottle says to rinse the CT and then apply the Creme Rinse.

I noticed this too, but it doesn't make a difference either way. It only removes an unnecessary step (1 rinse less). I've done it both ways and it doesn't matter. It performs the same.

Understood. And the message again to all reading this is "do what works for you! " However, if you are not getting the results that the product claims, re-group and use it according to the directions they send you or are on the bottles.

 

[Curlytime]

Ladies:

FedEx just rung my doorbell and YEP my Ovation is hair(here). I am so excited that I plan to wash n go this morning. I got the enitre system. I'll keep you posted on my results. Many of you have had great results and have been inspiring to say the least. Thank-you, thank-you thank-you.

eshille,

Thanks for letting me know it was the same for you. ITA, I really think that the more I use it, the better it will work for me. I co-washed today (had to after I worked out) by just rinsing my hair very well w/ water. Then I applied the CT to my scalp, left it on a few minutes, and then applied the creme rinse. Today I used the same leave-in, but I air-dried instead and my hair does feel much softer.

My only concern is that I think I am seeing some breakage, not a whole lot though. My hair hasn't been happy since my last relaxer didn't fully take, so that could be the reason. Anyway, I'm determined to see this through. I plan to keep using the system until I have finshed it all. January has had such great results, and her tips and info always seem to work well for my hair, plus I spent the $$$ so ya know I'm gonna make it work.

 

[Roland]

I just got the mega tek! and I put it on my scalp, I can't wait to start seeing results. Can I be added to the challenge please?

 

[pinkchocolatedaisy]

I noticed this too, but it doesn't make a difference either way. It only removes an unnecessary step (1 rinse less). I've done it both ways and it doesn't matter. It performs the same.

Yeah, me too. It confused me too at first! I've tried it different ways. and it all comes out the same to me. I like to shampoo with the color therapy then use the creme rinse and apply CT to my scalp (using an applicator bottle) and a little on the length of my hair. I leave until the next wash. I am loving it...

has anyone experienced an itchy scalp and shedding as a result of using the entire OCT system? My scalps seems to be itching more -I'm scratching to the point of soreness and I notice shedding when I use the creme rinse or any conditioner. At first I totally freaked cause I thought I was seeing breakage but every time I noticed the root (bulb, follicle whatever you call it) was attached. Not a lot but I was just wondering. Is it normal?

 

[*fabulosity*]

Understood. And the message again to all reading this is "do what works for you! " However, if you are not getting the results that the product claims, re-group and use it according to the directions they send you or are on the bottles.

That's what I'm doing! And it's working great for me...don't know about length but the whole system as prescribed on the bottles made my hair feel amazing...so much so that I skipped the salon this week! (woohoo) and I've slathered on coconut oil, amla, and ojon and I plan on washing today again! This is fun! I never had fun when doing my own hair... It's like "oooh" like a surprise to see if I keep getting the same silky results.

 

[sweetgal]

Hi eveyone,

I used the Ovation system again last night and my result were not as good as the first time. My hair is dry, more sheddint than normal and some breakage too!

However, I think the breakage is from my last texlax, -I think i was really underprocessed and my hair does not like.

Any suggestions ladies? Are there any ladies that are just using the OT on their scalp only? I'm thinking about putting some braids in my hair! Also are they any ladies that are still using their reglar condition? If so, how are you fitting this OT system into your schedule/

 

[belleama]

That's it. That's all it says. I was rinsing the CT and then applying the Creme Rinse. The Creme Rinse bottle says "No leave in time required."

You are not misreading the bottle at all. The bottle and the flyer have different directions. I tried it the way the flyer instructs but I'm not sure that I like this. I'm going to try it the way the bottle instructs tonight. We shall see...

 

[*fabulosity*]

I just tried to order the full sizes (was going to give my mom the 6 oz set)... and something keeps happening after I get past the Paypal Screen. I've done this twice; I just hope they aren't hitting my paypal up for 200! Anybody else having problems?

Hi,
when you use your Cell Therapy daily do you just put it on your scalp? If I wear rollersets will this weigh my hair down? I don't have the time to wash and rollerset more than once a week. I was just wondering if I put this on my scalp daily will it be so heavy I am unable to wear my rollerset/wrap the rest of the week?
Have you experienced the itching?
sorry for the many questions?

 

[Golden]

I got my mega-tek yesterday, and have been using it on my scalp for two days. I haven't experienced the creepy crawlers, however I really like the smell
