Ovation Cell Therapy/Mega-Tek Challenge

[KPH]

Ive been using MT for close to a month now and ive gotten no length or thickness but tons of shedding. Im wondering if i got a bad batch or something.

I see all you ladies here getting all these great results and im wodering what im doing wrong.

I simply apply it to my dry scalp daily and nothing else.

Some of the ladies have put their recipes for MT in this thread, using is straight, from what I have read, dries the hair. MT ladies chime in please

 

[fa$hionista]

I got mine today. Even though I ordered instead of going to the store. (I couldn't find the store) If you live in Houston, you can drive to Tomball and another location to buy the product.

I can't wait to wash my hair and put it on my scalp tonight. (I purchased Mega Tek)

This pulled me from OT back to the hair board.

Hi ClassyND, I live in the Houston area as well. What are the names and locations of both stores where I can purchase the Mega-Tek products locally and how much was it? Thanks!

I agree with KPH. I have my recipe in the thread as well. Please go back a few pages and you'll find it or you can simply check my fotki for my Mega Tek recipe. I have posted it in this thread twice already. Please read through the thread slowly to know what we are doing to make application easy. It took me 4 days of reading through these threads to know how to use my MT. Please, please read through it. Mark pages that you will need in your favorites for easy reference or print them out. This is what I did.

I apply my MT to my damp scalp as well and I make sure my hair is well moisturized beforehand. I believe that was the reason why I posted the recipe in my fotki, because I knew the question would keep coming up.

This is excellent advice. I have actually learned so much about MY hair just by reading through this thread. I came up with my own MT recipe and it's wonderful. I have not had one bit of dryness or shedding, in fact my hair was drier before I started using MT because I didn't truly understand how to give my hair effective moisture. My hair is thriving now.

This thread is worth the time it takes to read it if you plan on succesfully using the MT / OCT products. If you are going to invest the money into the proudcts it would be wise to take the time to learn how to best use them for your hair type.

I orderd 22 pounds worth of stuff (stocking up! don't ask ) and shipping total was only 13 bucks. *shrug* not bad, at all, to me, and definitely cheaper than the 'official' Eqyss site, and cheaper than Acarta.

Are you having a sale!

Is this an economic indicator that I should be concerned with :scratchch

Is it time to start stockpileing?

Full disclosure - I got a big bottle of the Marigold Spray too - I want to see if it will be a viable alternative to OFF - and that sucker is HEAVY. Plus the 6 bottles of Cream Rinse , and the Survivor detangler....

I am using the complete system in the mornings now. Does anyone find that the cell therapy warms their scalp? It does for me

Oh good, its not just me This happens to me also.

 

[girlyprincess23]

The heat tends to kick in after like 2minutes. It did it again today. I left it on for 3 minutes and I started to feel that warming sensation again after 2 minutes.

I notice the heat with my OCT too sometimes...especially if I have a baggy on my head

 

[girlyprincess23]

People experience different things withMega-Tek Rebuilder & Ovation Cell Therapy. I am sure your hair is growing; when I use Cell Therapy, my new growth comes out smoother than normal whereas others, it's thick and strong. Maybe that is the case for you.

Let's see what the other ladies say, but I always use my product when I am washing, so my scalp is always wet when I apply.

Yes my ng is waayy different than it usually is. I can still tell it's n/g b/c it's still curly but the curl is looser and defined and jet black. I'll just say if my n/g was normally like this i'f have no need for a relaxer

Ive been keeping up with the thread almost daily. My hair has always shed alot so the shedding really isnt a big issue since im used to it. Im not getting much dryness either because i still moisturize daily and use vatika oil, (i just dont mix everything in a bottle). I'm just not seeing results...no growth or thickness...it might just be me.

I use the Ovation System and I have read and listened to the information from the DC Labs website and read the flyer they send
when you get your order.

DC Labs states that the scalp should be prepared for the Cell Therapy by making sure the scalp is clean of other product; it absorbs better without a barrier. Are you oiling or putting other product on your scalp before you add MT/CT?

I don't know what could be the problem . This is stumping me.

Hi Mz Dee Dee... First here's a great big hug

Don't worry about your hair shedding, it's a normal process for many reasons, especially when we 'change' our hair care regime. It's happened to me before.

Let's stop the shedding, okay? How? With GARLIC! It WORKS!

First you have to smile and not worry about your hair anymore, okay?

Here is my homemade recipe which really works.

All you need is Garlic POWDER (not the salted kind, but the plain powder) and CASTOR OIL.

(Olive Oil and Garlic is a wonderful combination and Smells Yummie but Castor Oil makes hair GROW!)

RECIPE:

Mix 2 heaping tablespoons of Garlic Powder with 2-3 ounces of Castor Oil. (loose paste texture) Stir well and then gently rub it into your scalp.

The granules of the Garlic powder are excellent for massaging your scalp. It will feel gritty, but you will feel like you've had a wonderful scalp massage.

Gently smooth the mixture in your hair (grit and all); put on a plastic cap; then wrap your head with a towel over the cap and relax or read the forum for at least an hour.

Gently wash your hair with a gentle shampoo or do a conditioner wash. The granules will rinse out easily and the conditoner will remove any trace of the garlic scent.

Do this about 3 times a week and you will have less and less shedding. It really works.

Garlic Hair Care Products:

I also have Nutrine Garlic shampoo and the Nutrine Garlic creme conditioner (comes in a jar) which I use once a week. And the Alter Ego Garlic Treatment (this smells very nice ).

Note: Sick Bay (www.sickbay.biz) sells the Alter Ego ($5 less) but it's often out of stock. So I purchased it from Amazon with the Nutrine garlic hair care line.

Process:

Once the shedding stops, resume the Mega Tek or the OCT a little at a time and see if the shedding has ceased. You should be okay.

Still do a Gentle Garlic/Castor Oil scalp massage at least twice a week, whether you use Mega Tek or Ovation or not.

Garlic just protects the hair, period. And Castor Oil is hair growth guaranteed, it's just not as fast as Mega Tek or Ovation. But the Garlic/Castor Oil is an excellent Hair Care Regime to keep on hand just for maintanence to stop shedding.

Here's Aggie's (our member) Recipe and it's also EXCELLENT!

From Aggie's Post: Thanks Aggie

A really great treatment for shedding hair is:

Alter Ego Garlic Treatment.

I bought mine fromwww.sickbay.biz. I also have Nutrine garlic shampoo and conditioner. The shampoo I use sparingly and pay careful attention to apply to my scalp only as it has a clarifying affect on the hair. Perhaps it can also be diluted before applying to your scalp and remember - sparingly.

I also sometimes use an at home treatment I make myself. Here is the recipe - Crush about 7-9 cloves of garlic and mix with about 2 oz of extra virgin olive oil and heat in the microwave for about 20-25 seconds or just hot enough to apply to your scalp without burning yourself.

Put on a plastic cap and keep mixture on your scalp for 30 minutes with or without heat. I usually use heat. I would apply do this treatment as a pre-poo before I shampoo and condition my hair. It smells really strong at first, but as soon as you wash with poo and conditioner, the garlic scent goes away. Ladies, this treatment is amazing and it works. I recommend repeating at least once or twice a week for as long as there is excessive shedding.

ETA: Shedding usually subsides at about 3 weeks of treatment.

Okay Angels, I hope these garlic regimes help. Just find your preferred way to use it and GROW that hair of yours down to the ground.

Happy Hair Growth.... Don't let shedding stop you in your tracks; fight back with Garlic. It really and truly works! It really does.

Love,

Shimmie.... :blowkiss:

When my hair was shedding, nothing stopped it. I was using a Garlic oil and I was using a Garlic Conditioner. The Alter Ego stuff didn't help either. Eventually my shedding stopped on its own but it took a year and a half. Mine was from something during my wisdom tooth surgery so maybe the garlic and all the other stuff will help when the shedding is strictly from something being done to the scalp, not something internal like health issues, stress, or reactions to medications?

I don't know. Just chiming in. I really hope the shedding stops for you ladies b/c I spent hundreds of dollars and collected baggy after baggy of shed hair...clumps of it. It can be very depressing.

Like JN, I'm stumped as well. But let me ask you this...You indicated that you do not get growth, so how is your diet, water and vitamin intake? Have you had a colon cleanse lately? I know this sounds a little gross but I clean my colon often as a lot of bodily diseases and sluggish health come from the colon. The master cleanse is awesome too. Ask Sareca, she'll tell you.

I will be using the master cleanse on Monday of next week for a few days. My body bounces back healthy after every single one of them. Try eating your foods in as close to their raw state as possible and reduce all processed foods if possible. I'm not saying that this is the problem, but we're trying to come up with possible solutions for your hair to grow as fast as possible. We're all on this hair journey together. No man, or in this case, no woman will be left behind. We will not leave you behind Mz DEE DEE.

Aggie this is so true.

Colon cleanses are remarkable in curing a multitude of ailments.

Our hair, skin and fingernails are often indications that we need a cleanse and/or a change in our diet as well as adding or subtracting supplements.

A 'raw' diet (fruits/veggies in their natural state) should be a part of everyone's diet. Sea veggies (spirilina, kelp), Grasses (wheat grass, barley), and other green veggies are vital to overall health.

I love your heart, Aggie..."no man or woman will be left behind; we're all in this together." What a wonderful way to post.

May you never be alone in any of your life's journeys or challenges. Never left behind.

hello ladies just a few questions, I plan on ordering some of this mega tek tomorrow but Id like to know if this is only applied to the scalp or used as a conditioner and if it can be used in combination with other growth aids like mixed with bt and mn. Thanks

 

[tt8]

Hi vonte
We are applying the MT and OCT to the scalp. If you take a look at the first post you'll find summaries about application techniques, ingredients, challenge updates and more helpful info. PM me if you want to join.
There is a lot of resourceful info here that will help you along the way.

Hi vonte422, I and most of the ladies here apply the MT cell rebuilder on our damp scalps as it is loaded in protein, and with that said you don't want to put it on your hair for any long lengths of time. In fact, when I do put it on the length of my hair, which by the way is not often, it's only for about 5 minutes and then I wash it out with the MT premier botanical shampoo and the MT creme rinse. I wash this mixture out and follow it with diluted Nutrine garlic poo and canditioner, then DC as normal.

Aggie,

How is your hair doing with the MT, you got new growth? OCT gonna bust my purse wide open if I keep that habit up.

 

[JustKiya]

I really don't know WHAT my hair is doing - but it's definitely getting LONGER. I was combing out my hair last night to put back up in my style, and checking out the back - it's getting longer and thicker - I REALLY think that my 'short' layers are catching up with the rest of my hair which is why it LOOKS longer, but doesn't seem to measure longer - at least not my usual front of the head test strand. The back of the head one, on the other hand - :wow:

And I've actually been slacking, just a little, on applying the MT this week - my hair is in style that's not allowing me easy access to the scalp, and for the sake of lower manipulation, I'm leaving it be for a minute. I'll be on my daily dosage next week, though.
