all i can say is wowwww. you are the official postergirl for this challenge. i think its true we are all getting growth (for the most part), but there is something far more greater when a product can make someone feel so much better about their hair and overall self confidence.

thank you for being unselfish and sharing your experience with us.

Hi Ladies,

After thoroughly reading this post, i have decided to jump on the bandwagon. I was been researching places to buy Mega-tek and I think I found a good deal at:

http://www.jeffersequine.com/ssc/

And if your order is more than $100, you can use this code ZZP8 for $10 off.

I ordered 2 bottles for $49.90 total. And they accept Paypal.

HTHs someone.

Thanks so much for this, Oooops!!!

I needed another vendor besides easypetstore that takes paypal!!! I never have my CCs close at hand and I find it easier to use Paypal!

I want 2 join the challenge 2 but I am also in the weave challenge. Is anyone using the megatek while wearing a weave? What is your regimen?

Yep, me. I've been applying MT each night. I'm taking done hair tomorrow and reweaving. I started on July 2nd and my hair has been growing out of control.

Here's a link the OCT/MT Progress Pix thread that shows my progress and regimen.

Wow, your hair has really grown. I wonder what it will look like at year two year update? It's really improved!!!!:yep:
 
I started with teh recommended does after a few weeks I started to smell the garlic..not good so I slowed it down to one pill. If you want more, maybe you can eat more foods that have been cooked with garlic...

Hey ladies,

For those of u who take the garlic supps, how many mg do u take per day? I bought Kyolic 100 age, they say to take 2 capsules 2x per day, isn't that too much? That's 2400 mg per day.

Thanks

Congratulations. I certainly know how good it feels to see those bald spots improving. Keep up the good work
 
Will adding pureed garlic onto hair and scalp and then DCing work well to decrease shedding?

At my local grocery store they sell a 64oz container of 100% pureed garlic w/no additives that I use for cooking.

Thanks :)

That's a great idea! It makes sense to me. I really want to avoid shedding without taking any pills or adding an additonal shampoo to my reggie. I think I'm gonna start by adding to my weekly dc with Joico Moisture Recovery Balm.

I'm gonna be trying this soon, but I'm still gonna run it through my food processer first to make sure that I don't have a hard time getting it out of my hair when I rinse.

The garlic I take is Odorless aged Kyolic garlic and there is absolutley no odor when I take them, I mean none whatsoever.

Ooooooh I wish we had this here in the Bahamas because I would be using this for sure. Yes this is great for shedding. Make sure you use it like a pre-poo, okay? I would even add a little EVOO to it and heat for a few seconds in the microwave oven, then add to your scalp for 30 minutes, then wash and DC as normal.

Only make enough to be used all in one week at a time because the garlic can go rancid even in the refrigerator if allowed to sit longer than a week. Please read this article for more information - http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hl-vs/iyh-vsv/food-aliment/garlic-ail-eng.php#botu.

Here's a small excerpt of the article of the link above. Please save in your favorites to refer back to later:
Background

Garlic-in-oil is a mixture of vegetable oil and garlic, either whole, chopped or minced. When you make it at home and use it right away, it's a safe product. It's also safe if you keep it refrigerated on a continuous basis, and use it within a week.
The trouble starts if you store homemade garlic-in-oil at room temperature, or if you keep it in the fridge for too long. These actions could result in contamination of the product by the bacteria spores that cause botulism.
The Link Between Homemade Garlic-in-Oil and Botulism

The bacteria spores that cause botulism - Clostridium Botulinum - are widespread in nature, but they seldom cause problems because they can't grow if they're exposed to oxygen. If the spores don't grow, then they can't produce the toxins that make us sick.
However, when garlic containing the bacteria is covered with oil, there's no oxygen present. That means conditions are ripe for the spores to grow and produce toxins. You can slow down the growth of bacteria (and the production of toxins) by refrigerating the product, but this may not be enough to stop it from spoiling.
What's worse is that there won't be any obvious signs that the garlic-in-oil is spoiled. You won't be able to tell if it's dangerous, because it will still look, smell and taste the same.
If you eat garlic-in-oil that contains the toxins, you can get botulism - a potentially fatal food poisoning that may cause the following symptoms:
  • Dizziness;
  • Blurred or double vision;
  • Difficulty in swallowing, breathing and speaking; or
  • Paralysis that gets worse with time.

CAUTION - THIS IS THE REASON WHY I ALWAS MAKE 2OZ OF THE GARLIC PRE-POO AT A TIME, I KNOW THIS IS ENOUGH FOR ME TO USE JUST ONCE MAYBE TWICE AT BEST WITHIN A WEEK.

thanks for your reply, :grin: how many times did you dc? I am afraid of dc'ing too much because of the risk of matting. Im sure youll let us know how much growth you have.:yep:
 
I realized I have to actually part my hair with a comb in order to make sure it gets to my scalp. On my first night, I just used the applicator bottle as a comb to part and apply in one step. But I think more got on my hair and less on my scalp. So today (2nd time using) I just used the comb and parted. I also am using it straight up for now and will adjust with adding things on an as needed basis.

I would expect to see about 1/4 inch of growth per week.

I'm gonna put it like this - I relaxed my hair three weeks ago - and I already have 3/4 inch of new growth. It would take me over a month to have that kind of growth normally.

You will see a difference. :yep:
Click to expand...

Thanks for respoinding-3/4 an inch in 3 weeks is amazing.

I relaxed 2 weeks ago, however, I'm wearing cornrows so it's difficult to tell. It looks like 1/2 inch, however feels more like 1/4 an inch.

However, I dont really see how cornrows can slip...:blush:

Cant tell until these rows come out.....:spinning:
 
PuffyBrown said:
I don't know about everybody else but I can honestly say that I just had a touch up on Saturday. I have been putting on scalp daily (straight). I have growth activity and can feel new little hairs sticking up. Cant say if it is the MT but I can say that my scalp usually feels smooth for more than 4 days without the MT....
Click to expand...


WOW-I hope I get results, I normally dont feel or see much growth until about 4-5 weeks after a relaxer, then the growth seems to come out of no where. I'm hoping I cant get at least 3/4 an inch cosistently for a month. I would be soo happy:yep:.

I'm currently using Ovation and my Mega Tek should be arrriving any day now....

So Excited because to make my bad day good when i got home i saw a box on my bed and when i opened it i saw my MT. I was so excited because my mom got it for me which suprised me. However, I am even more excited because my Bee Mine should be here any day now. Lets get ready to G-R-O-W! :yep::lick:

Your hair is to die for!!!!!!
Beautiful!!!


So i applied my MT last night(sometimes i mix it with shea butter oil,or emu oil,or i just use it straight up).
I parted my hair in four sections after i applied and use Keisha's roller method without the baggie.
When i woke up this morning and touched my hair,it felt so poofy underneath. My ng is starting to get where i'm just gliding the comb over my hair,so i don't pull through my ng.
Seriously,Seriously thinking about transitioning:drunk:
 
How long do you think one bottle will last if used daily? I'm scared of putting too much on. I keep touching my scalp to see if I notice a difference and I only got the darn thing yesterday :spinning:.
