I think someone did with no problem. Try it! It can't hurt one time.
I just use a conditioning cap. My hot flashes heat up my whole head so I don't need electric heat!

I thought the same thing also!!! I use OCT only. It appears as if there is less worries than with MT.

Whew! N&W, it's a hot mess these hot flashes! I am having a heck of a time with this episode. It's been over 3 months now of hot flashes and night sweats. Dang! All I do is get hot!
And to have them in the summer ain't no joke! If I ddin't exercise I don't know what I'd do. OK. Sorry for the hijack. Carry on!

That and the fact that it's cheaper. Some people either don't want to pay that much for a product or can't afford to. The Ovation has more salon quality ingredients; makes your hair look and feel good right away - just like you stepped out of a salon. MT users experience the same, but after added an ingredient or 2 like SAA, aloe or oil.

Hi Ladies, It's been a while since I could really post on the boards. Things are rough! Anyway, I am still applying my MT and JBCOnWGO mix to my scalp, however, not every night. This is only week 3 and I'm going to keep using it until this remnant is done. Still no change, still no growth yet.

I have been faithfully using MT for 3 weeks, but just had a sew in weave installed. I am concerned with applying MT daily, because the product may not only touch my scalp but the cornrows as well. I am nervous of major damage due to the high protein in the product. I wash my weaves once a week. How are those in sew-ins applying MT? I'd like to know. Thanks!

That's a good question. I'm currently in braids, and I'm not sure if I can use this on my hair in that state. BUMPING!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting! I've been mixing a tiny bit in with my moisturizer in the morning, and my skin is - amazing. I can't even pin down what the difference is, but my face hasn't looked THIS good (and young!) in - ages. I don't know if it's smoothing the skin itself, evening out my comkplexion, or what, but it looks GOOD. I'll have to try it on my feet, now.nyc_beauty

With box braids I wouldn't be concerned, as your able to get right to your roots without affecting the length of your hair. You can try using a applicator bottle.

At this rate you all will have me putting it in everything and applying it everywhere lol. I have to see what all the fuss is about. JK how much do you put in your moisturizer?

I would be too afraid that I might grow facial hair.

Um. I use about a pea-size amount of moisturizer (in a tube) and about half as much MT, and I mix them together in my hand - both are pretty thick, so that little bit is more than enough for my face.
I would be too afraid that I might grow facial hair.
I do have this little 'patch' of chin hair (thanks Mom!) that I've been keeping an eagle eye on to see if it's growing uber fast, but I haven't noticed any change, thankfully. I've never had even a hint of a moustache, and I still don't have one.

Personally, I added the additional oils/additions to my MT originally to make it more like the ingredient list of Ovation. I continue to add them because I like the way it feels/soaks into my scalp - protein overload was never my main reason - I tweaked the rest of my reggie to address that.
You don't have to mix it with anything - using it straight, with a very light touch, as a 'grease' on your scalp a few times a week would be good. Make sure that you up your moisture levels, too.
JK what do u use as a moisturiser when using MT? my hair is natural 4b and real protein sensitive so im concerned....also this might sound dumb but im in micros, how would i know if im shedding...i ordered MT and it should be arriving today and ive only had the micros in for 3 weeks...i know im not gonna want to wait til i take down the braids to start using...what do u think?

*thinks* Um. Okay.... the main products that I use are cheapie conditioners, honey, molasses, the Caramel Treatment, Premier Cream Rinse, and Elasta QP IFC.... plus a lil honeyquat and some SAA and some butters every now and then.
My moisturizing routine has grown very organically - I know what my hair likes moisture-wise, and I give it a lot of that. I DC twice a week - once on Sat, and once on Wednesday. I don't wear my hair out, at all, it's either in a 'loose' updo, or in two strand twists, updone, as well. I seal my wet hair with castor oil Sat. night, let it dry, and then when I twist my dry hair on Sunday, I use a conditioner + butter mix on the twists, and I seal that with castor oil, again. During the week, all I do is mist my hair daily (and some days I'm even slacking on that), and scarf it at night. I don't use anything else with protein in it, at all, and my mid-week DC is an overnight one.
You won't be able to tell that you are shedding until you take the micros down, I would think, and even then it's going to be hard to tell whether it's just normal X weeks worth of shed hair, or if it's something exceptional. If you start using now, though, I suspect that you won't be keeping the micros in for as long as you usually do.

I don't know - that's totally up to you. I don't, because I'm lazy, and cheap, and my shedding doesn't seem too exceptional to me....

I just took down a braid in the back to redo it....MY HAIR FEELS SOooo strong and soft! It's amazing. I started MT in my OCT rotation two weeks ago and it seems as if my strands have thickened. Once per week, I apply the MT to my entire head for about 5 minutes, then I rinse out. I follow up with a DC the next day.
Also, when I was finger combing through the hair I took down from the braid, I noticed less shedding. I've been taking garlic supplements for 15 days now.

is mixing castor oil supposed to curb the drying effect of MT? I was just wondering if I needed to keep spraying my roots with infusium moisturologie?

Ladies,
I love being in this challenge...it has truly changed the way my hair feels and my hair has grown so much. I'm grateful for a product that does what it says it will do and OCT/MT will be apart of my regi as long as they continue to make it.
However, I am going to refrain from making any suggestions or answer anymore pm's about the usage of these products. There are numerous posts about these products and all one has to do is to search, or begin reading from the first page of this thread. Because of all the 'drama' that pops up on the hair forum about it, I don't want to be a participant any longer in it, so I have made my decision. ETA: I'm not leaving the thread or the forum, I will still be apart of the challenge, ya'll and still hoop and holla with your progress!!! I will post pics still, because I want those who are beginning to use it to be encouraged...it works, very well when used as directed and I haven't had any harmful things happen to me while using it...Praise the Lord. Well, I can say that about many shampoos and conditioners and other things that I have put in my hair over these last few years as well....Praise the Lord!
Blessings to all you ladies who have been in this challenge from the beginning...you are the best! You are always helpful and willing to work out the kinks and knots that can come from challenges such as this one.
I appreciate you!
