My MT just came today (after 3 days:clap:!!) and I ordered the 16oz bottle. My question is, how long does one last for everyone? I'll be away until Jan '09 and so I'm wondering if it's worth stocking up now.

I'd say get at least two more bottles. I doubt that you'll go through THREE bottles, but you might at least bust open the third, esp. if you are going to be around folks who might want to 'borrow'..... :lol:

it depends on how you are using it...for the way i am using it i have used about 5-6oz but there are 3 people in my house, plus i changed my mixture after we went through 4oz in a week. i would venture to say that the three of us will probably finish the bottle sometime in september...but i have to get my own bottle for when i go back to school. one bottle can *probably* last about 4 months the way i mix...so i would suggest you have two...but use it for a week or two to see how quickly you go through it.
 
How bout I forgot to MT this morning. All day I was pissed....like I forgot to put on deodorant or something.

Confessions from a true MT addict:grin:
 
my hair is ridiculously thick :nono:
Ive been concentrating on my edges and now they resemble bush. taming them is impossible.

Im trying to hold out on relaxing until beginning of septembre ; but it will be hard :wallbash:
 
I have a few questions about Mega Tek.
1) Does it matter if I have a no lye perm or lye perm in my hair? I only ask this question because I know that when you use no lye you need more Protein and lye perms you need more moisture!
2) I want to perm my hair but I am not sure if I should stop using Mega Tek before this process!
I am not sure if someone asked these question but please forgive me!

I don't know Evalina. I can only hypothesize with you.
Based on what you are saying you know about Lye and No LYe needing Moisture or Protein respectively; then I would use the No Lye, so at least you know you wouldn't over load on Protein.

To be on the safe side, I would also do a deep condition and avoid adding MT for a couple days before I apply my perm.

Or like I do, baste the scalp with Sensitive Scalp or whatever grease you use and also coat the shaft of your hair so that it's sealed. Well better use Oil I guess. And then apply the perm.

No one is ignoring you, I think we all just really don't have the answer. I permed this week because I am starting my MT this week, and I wanted to be able to chart my growth. I used a No Lye, because that's what I am used to using.

Have you been adding additional moisture to your hair? Someone suggested to me that I should apply my moisture leave in first, seal my hair and THEN apply the MT to my scalp because that could happen: the dryness.

OK I am real slow:spinning: I only apply moisture before I conditon wash or after my weekly wash!!! I am thinking the only way to recieve moisture is to apply a conditioner. I use Humectress, Herbal Essence and olive oil!!!!

Do you deep condition at all? You need to be doing that at least once a week, and preferably more than that... :yep: I think a lot of us are DC'ing twice a week with something intensely moisturizing.

Girl, I FEEL YOU!!!! I am hair-ee...I've got hair on my legs that I won't touch, bcs, what's the point? And my hubbie luvs it...maybe it's a Creole/Louisiana/Southern thing, but men here luv hairy legs...and yes, i get stares (from those of the paler complexions)...but it's actually prettee......... :look::look::look: Okay, maybe i've shared toooo much.....:yep::spinning::blush:

Back to MT on the face... I'm already waxing my chin ever week! And I did mean EVER week! I gotta watch this hair growth stuff....i've been using sulfur soap ($1 at Family Dollar...great for oily skin and acne) and i think it is stimulating these hairs to grow on me chin! OMGosh! So I hate to see what MT will do.... "Awooooooo" (Best Wolf Call....)

Yuh see, I'm not that lucky! I am Wolverine's Sister. And the only place that my hair seems to not grow well is on my head.
I don't want to wake up one morning and see my unibrow again :lachen:

Man, ever since I stopped using MT for the few days, I have been slacking big time. With everything that happened in my life, I have been slacking in everything! But starting today I'm going back to dialy MT'ing, taking my vits, working out, etc.

Oh and thanks for the Aubrey Organics tip. That conditioner is like NO other I have tried before. Its the best in my opinion for moisture. I'm going to start dc'ing with heat.

I miss this thread.
 
Hi Evalina,

I don't think it matters...lye vs no lye. (I'm transitioning, however). You should just mix your MT with castor oil or evoo so that it is not too strong...on the first page are different mixes/recipes, some are even mixing theirs with daily moisturizers such as BB Castor Oil Lotion...MT works differently on everyone. I would stop using MT a week before getting a relaxer to be on the safe side. I would proceed immediately after receiving a chemical treatment...I think it will help strengthen your hair roots dramatically!

HTH!

For the ladies that have recently ordered from Hope Braids, Bobbi has been out of town with little or no internet access. He will be shipping products in the order they were received. He will be sending the orders ASAP and is sorry for any delays.

Again if anyone would like to order MEGA TEK products check his website out. The prices are good, shipping stats at only $4 and his customer service is exceptional. He suspects that he may be getting more orders and will be fully stocked.

The website is: And no I dont know this guy! He was the only resonable company that shipped products to me in Canada, he also ships to Europe. I was blown away with his service....:yep:

:yep:Yep, I actually posted a few pages back that he was out of town and is ordering another shipment....But i DEFINITELY agree, his service reminds me of good 'ole OLD FASHION customer service...he's nice and very professional...NOW, we just need to talk him into giving us LHCF gals a discount:lachen:

The poo is 32oz. I will have that for a long time because a little goes a loooonnnng way and I only use it once a week....I can literally use a nickel size amount and lather my whole head very nicely. :yep:
