Ovation Cell Therapy/Mega Tek Challenge

[Shimmie]

Hi, everyone. I bought the Oct Cell therapy and creme rinse. Now what in the world do I do with it? I went to the beginning of the thread but I didn't find directions to use both. Any advice is appreciated.


Thanks.

and HealthyHair

I'm an OCT expert

First of all, let's start slow then as you see results you can use some of the other methods in this thread.

Begin by washing your hair with the Shampoo then rinse.

While hair is damp, lightly oil your scalp. Use the an oil of your choice (Castor Oil, Olive Oil, Jojoba Oil, Sesame Seed Oil, Emu Oil, Coconut Oil,).

Then lightly apply the OCT (Cell Therapy) to your Scalp ONLY --- not on the length of your hair.

The OCT (Cell Therapy) is loaded with Powerful Protein and it will dry out your hair.

Cover your head with a plastic cap; rinse out the OCT after an hour or so.

Then use the Creme Rinse and Rinse out.

Air dry your hair; apply oil to seal your hair ends. Then place into your favorite protective style.

Helpful Measures:

Throughout the week, do Conditioner Washes, not Shampoo washes. Wash with shampoo only once a week.

Use a garlic/oil conditioning treatment once a week.

Take garlic capsules daily.

This will reduce and eliminate hair shedding.

Happy OCT Hair Growth!

Two reasons
1) People like to make things complicated (adding coffee and tea and lemon juice and wine and two legs off a firefly and all other sorts of mess)
2) People don't like to read, and keep asking the same danngone questions over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.



What I gave you were the basic, simple, easiest possible henna usage instructions.

@ two legs of a firefly.....

Thanks Pretty Kiya... You are so right. And I love your simplistic method.

Ok, I've been using MT for two weeks in a certain section (nape) and the back middle of my head. Unfortunately, I'm not seeing the growth that mostly every one is raving about...I guess my spurt hasn't kicked in yet. I'll continue to use the MT and report back in a few weeks.

 

[genesis132]

Your hair is absolutely lovely.

I am soooo jealous of some of you guys. YOU GOT HAIR. I want hair, and I want it now. Funny, prior to discovering "we could grow hair", I never really cared about length. After all, I could just buy it.

Thanks Rhapsdyblu!! Your progress got a sista wanting to rotate MT and OCT. I luv luv luv OCT but from ladies responses, it seems like MT makes the hair thicker and i could use some thickness. So I may..purchase some MegaTek too.

 

[genesis132]

i had last relaxed at around christmas... and those pics are early february... so maybe a month to two months

(wow i just realized im going to get away with relaxing only 3 times this year)

I understand what you mean about your newgrowth not coming in as thick...i was thinking the same thing about my self....Does this stuff (MT or OCT) change the texture? I would like to keep my lumps and bumps.
jus wondering.....

 

[sareca]

I have NEVER even considered touching up at 8 weeks... until now...

Spill the beans! Are you still rotating OCT and MT? I'm thinking about rotating both?

Henna really ISN'T that hard!!

You mix the henna with water, let it sit til the color releases, mix a lot of cheap conditioner in with it, slap it in your head, leave it in as long as you can bear it, rinse it out, and you're done!

just a thought...when i get to APL i will celebrate by henna-ing. i love the color.

I am going to henna tonight. I hope it's not disastrous with MT, but I feel like my fragile strands need to be built up from the inside out and henna is the only I know that will do that.

 

[LaPetiteCoquette]

*lol*

Nope.

1) Mix Henna with hot tap water to make a THICK paste.
2) Let sit for - a while. If it's warm in the house, on the counter is fine. If it's cool, stick in it a window and ignore it for a couple hours.
3) It'll turn colors - get a lil darker. That means it's done.
4) Mix in some cheap conditioner (help prevent your hair from drying out, and makes it easier to rinse out)
5) Apply to hair (I'm a fan of the slap and smoosh technique)
6) Put on a shower cap, a headscarf, and move on with your day.
7) Rinse out.

It's reallllllllllly not that hard.

:assimilat I'm trying to suck you in, Shimmie! Come to the Henna Side!!

That's the recipe I used also. Hope it works out for me. Thanks for posting.

I henna my hair every 4-6 weeks regardless. My hair needs the extra strength and conditioning power of henna. I put a liitle henna in my hair yesterday before I DC'ed. My hair came out nice and strong. I then returned to putting on my OCT/MT mix last night, massaged a little and went to bed.

 

[gorgeoushair]

ok... is anyone else feeling like megatek is making their hair thinner? not really all of my hair but just my newgrowth... i feel like this because when i part my hair i feel like more scalp is showing... the parts/my scalp showing looks so huge... and if i dont focus the camera it looks like nothing but bare skin... i have to take the picture carefully in order to see there is still hair there its just much thinner than usual... my scalp/new growth does not look the same, and i dont think its necessarily the results of my hair growing in with a looser curl pattern.

I know exactly what you're saying. I'm having this same problem. My newgrowth feels softer and barely there which makes me question if the MT is really working for me. I'm happy for the softer new growth b/c I'm thinking it will help me stretch longer. At first some were saying their newgrowth was coming in softer and looser........now it seems like people are having to relax earlier b/c of thicker, unruly newgrowth........girl, I don't know what it is. I know not everything works for everyone. I'm gonna at least buy 2 more bottles, the poo, and the creme rinse and continue to use to see what my results are. On another note I love the MT as a deep conditioner:heart2:love it, love it, love it This is my 4th or 5th time using it as a deep conditioner and can you say slip,detangled hair. I'm 7 weeks post I will, however, alternate w/ aphogee 2 min reconstructor(I love this too, plus they're similar) since MT is costly.

Thanks this is good to know. I intend on doing it every 4 weeks. My hair is just too weak and I don't like it.

MY MT IS HERE!!!

My husband thought it some medicine that I ordered for the dogs so he opened the package . . . When I got home my MT was sitting on the counter and he was looking like "huh . .honey you got something for horses over there on the counter"

I was like mind your businesses and carried it upstairs to my bathroom.

Sounds like something I'd say to my family!

 

[rhapsdyblu]

Let me preface this by saying I know that if I share another "aha" moment you guys are gonna kick me off this board but...

I was leaving work today & you know I got that HIH and gotta look at my hair every few minutes syndrome, so when I was at a stop light, I leaned over to look in the rearview mirror. Now in the sunlight you could really see right through the front of my hair. I gasped. I have NEVER had see-through hair. Then it hit me, again...what I was seeing through was the new growth from the balding. I mean, there was something to see through. Plus, I have big time shrinkage, so it isn't gonna be length I see unless I straighten. So I think some of my disappointment is that since there is more & more hair covering the bald spots (which is a blessing), it is becoming harder to see the new/fast growth as it was when there was NO hair there.

OK, I'll shut up now.

At first some were saying their newgrowth was coming in softer and looser........now it seems like people are having to relax earlier b/c of thicker, unruly newgrowth

i know... which is it ladies????

idk because i never really have problems with unruly ng... i dont start getting tired of stretching til around the 3rd month. if your ng is thicker... is the rest of your hair thin/fine? i consider my hair to be thick, so maybe thats why im perceiving the ng as being thinner

LOL! you know we love you. you're half the reason most of us ordered it so keep on posting.

No, totally opposite for me.

OK?!?!?! After over 300 pages on the first thread and well over 100 pages in this thread it wasn't til I saw rhapsdyblu's pics that I finally broke down and purchased MT.

 

[BostonMaria]

I was like mind your businesses and carried it upstairs to my bathroom.

FREAKIN HYSTERICAL! I'm LMAO over here!

rhapsdyblu I always look forward to your updates.

Where is the best place to purchase Mega Tek

ahem -pulls out soapbox-

kvvet.com; use coupon code 054.

 

[rhapsdyblu]

Ahhh, you guys are so sweet. I find it a blessing to me to know that so many were inspired by my pix, especially since it took me so long to show them.

But you just wait till it is long enough for me to swang. When my twists & braids get as long as JK's & I can shake my head with braids flopping... & like genesis132 or jamaicalovely or N&W or londondiva or Sereca or SamanthaJ or Aggie... you guys will NOT be able to stand me. Shoot, I won't be able to stand myself.

I actually think it's both - the NG is coming in softer and looser, but it's coming in so much faster at the same time, that stretching for the same length of time just isn't working anymore.

At least that's the impression that I've gathered.

I'm sitting here playing in my hair now (trying to work out some tangles) and about to Megassage in a second....

Thank you so much for this coupon code lilsparkle. And....they also have gallon sized Mega Tek - GALLON SIZED - could you believe that? I'm thinking about purchasing this size as I feel that MT is gonna eventually win me heart over completely it sure is.

 

[cocoaluv]

Im loving the results from MT. Its only been a week but I feel new growth and am very excited. My only problem now is that I have no clue what to do with my hair now . I think I will get some braids soon.

 

[Aggie]

Anyways, tonight I used OCT as recommended in the instructions and here's my review:

The shampoo cleaned my hair very very well without leaving it feeling stripped - good sign so far however, I found it work exactly like my Eqyss Premier Poo and guess what? Same color, Same smell, Same results.

Next I put in the Ovation Cell Therapy. I worked this in from ends to scalp and it felt really really nice and soft. For a few moments I contemplated leaving it in overnight, then changed my mind so I left it in for the duration of my shower (10 minutes - no shaving tonight). Anyway, my hair still felt a little soft and then I washed it out. (NOTE -I HAVE NOT YET USED MY MT THIS WAY)

Next I put in the creme rinse and I gatta be honest, I found the Ovation Creme Rinse to smell a little milder, softer, less fragranced than the Eqyss Creme Rinse which has a potent floral fragrance but in my opinion, they work exactly the same.

While my hair was still wet after rinsing it all out, my hair felt a little dry but strong all at the same time. Now that it's dry, it's soooooo soft, it's wierd. Not what I was expecting actually since it was feeling harder in a strong sorta way a few minutes ago. Now it feels soft in a strong sorta way now that it's dry.

I can't wait for my 2 new bottles of MT to arrive so I can try it out this very same way and then I can give you ladies another review. I will update when it arrives. So far though, I don't see much of a difference between how the OCT amd MT actually work on the hair. The difference may just only be the protein levels and castor oil.

Good Job Aggie with the comparisons! Keep us posted, as this is help me to decide on purchasing the MT to use along with my OCT .
