OK, here are my pics. The second, third, and 5th pic were taken June 14 before MT & the first and 4th pics were today - 1 1/2 wks post MT . I tried to show both right & left sides & front, pre & post but could only upload 5 pics.
OK, I did it - the burden is lifted. Now, what do I need to do to officially join? (I guess I just need to go back & read the first post. LOL)
I think you are right, it was just a trip seeing all my little springs all over my hands and on the towel~!! I'm happy to be back home Megga'saggin' erryday again
Mine looks like it's still around 3/4in but it's so much thicker it's very hard to manage. I did NOT want my hair thicker. I henna to cover gray and with OCT it was all working out great. I dunno, I might switch back. I don't miss all that shedding tho. I used to rain hair but that's probably what was keeping the thickness in check. *sigh*

I can only imagine how you felt AtlantaJJ; I've been there with the shedding. Scared me to tears...it sure did.
When I travel I put some of my hair products in those little travel bottles. I purchased several of them from the Dollar Tree.
For only $1, they come in sets of 3 to 4 bottles and some include two flat sized jars, which are great for creams and thicker mixtures. They come in different colors and this makes it easy to color code my hair products.
I hope this helps. Happy Hair Growth to you angel...

Shimmie, our thread is back to 5 stars, I never voted before so I just did and it made a difference, YAY!!! So ladies if you haven't yet voted, maybe this is a good time to do it while we're on the topic. Anyhoo, I am incredibly sleepy right now, so I'm off to bed.
Love you all and nighty nighty.
:blush3: Thank u Nice&Wavy!
I've stepped my game up this week. I've mega'sagged every day since Sunday this week. You all are so inspiring.
Thanks Aggie
Sweet sleep angel
Sweet sleep to everyone here. Have sweet dreams and long inches of hair to discover when you arise.
Shimmie sleeps
Your hair is growing even as you sleep and go about your day. I can't wait to see your progress pictures which you will have sooner than you could ever hope for.Awwh thanks for your advice and encouragement Shimmie. Tour such a sweetheart. God bless you and much continued success with your hair journey. I see that your hair is growing and progressing lovely by the way. Just beautiful. Patiently waiting for mine to grow out.
thats why i transitioned as well...i hadnt seen my curls since middle school. welcome!!!Thank u JK!
I don't even have an excuse except pure laziness. My reggie....
Wash 1x's a week with ovation system
Co wash with tea rinse once a week or cowash daily w/V05 if its a wng week
DC twice a week (i need to join that challenge too)
Apply OCT 3 maybe 4 times a week
Moisturize daily with ORS Olive Oil or water/glycerin mix
Garlic tabs & multivitamin once daily
does this sound okay? i'm trying to keep it low mani. minimum heat. i've had my had blow dried and flat ironed once this year and that was in april when i got my hair cut. ummm, but i haven't been massaging like i should. i just apply and keep it moving. i'm loving my transition though. its amazing to see my natural hair which i haven't seen since 7th grade. the entire front of my head is really thin. worried me so i stopped the relaxers. it stills seem thin to me, even with the new growth so I went to the derm. she recommened rogaine but after lurking on this sight and seeing all the rave reviews, i purchased OCT instead. gotta follow my LCHF ladies advice, not a doctors, ya know.
That's me speeding to a horse supply store tomorrow to buy some MT.
thank you miss! do you do half and half? i think i will use castor oil, i saw this big bottle at the vitamin shoppe today and got giddy.Yes, lilsparkle you should be fine if you have the oil mix. Your scalp will be oiled at the same time you apply the Mega Tek or OCT. I apologize for not being more clear about that.
I've learned that using the OCT product 'straight' is too strong for my hair. I have to oil my scalp and/or use the OCT with Oil mixed in.
I'm finally getting back on my mt game.
