Paltas Hair Treatment (pht) Challenge

[WhereItsAt]

What benefit you would like from using PHT (i.e. alopecia, length, thickness, stopping shedding, etc.) I ordered it for thickness and length but found out about that spot after I took my sew in down. I had already ordered but didn't know I had a spot.


How many times a week you plan on applying PHT. At least 3-4 times a week. Maybe everyday.


§ Any other growth methods you’ll be using along with PHT (i.e. Inversion, GHE, Baggy, etc). I plan to massage into my scalp. I may do GHE but it leaves my hair so wet when I wake up from sleeping.


§ Any other Paltas products you’ll be using? No just the treatment.

§ Post starting picture by Jan 1 I posted one and I'll post my length shot.


§ Hair type – (i.e. Natural 4b, Texlaxed 4a, Relaxed, etc.) Relaxed 4b/4a with a 3c nape..






Pic was taken on 12/22/13, the same day I took my sew in down.

- what's the deets on "pimento oil"?

@ilong

It's a little "Hot" Oil. Has red pepper & JBCO. Very stimulating.

I'll have it in Rotation.

Someone in our U1B1 had a very bad reaction with it. It made her Scalp very tender & sore.

I haven't had any problems with it.

It says to wash it out, but I usually apply & leave it in until my Wash Day with is the same thing I do with PALTAS.

Re: 2014 Paltas Hair Treatment (PHT) 1st Qtr

saving my spot, (I actually have a friend in Canada looking for it) when I get products I'll be back!

Found out today that he was unable to find it...i'm ordering now. I'm still in the challenge just will start a few weeks late.

 

[Iwanthealthyhair67]

Just received my order today.

yodie, where did you order your Paltas from?

 

[yodie]

Iwanthealthyhair67,

I ordered from pakcosmetics.com

 

[Asha's-Hair]

I feel like this stuff is already doing wonders for my hair

 

[PureSilver]

Is anyone going to post pics come Jan 1st. I'm thinking of posting a starting pic since i will officially start using the product tonight.

 

[Rozlewis]

Asha's-Hair, what results are you seeing? How are you applying it? How often are you using it? I am in this challenge also and I think I will begin using it tonight but wanted some tips.

I'm using it on my edges and they just feel thicker and more dense to me. I haven't noticed too much difference in my crown area yet (we have issues with each other.) I'm just spraying some of my rose water and aloe mix on my scalp and rubbing the Paltas in every other night.

 

[Iwanthealthyhair67]

I'm so excited (wish I had done this weeks ago) I ordered 3 bottles of Paltas from Pakcosmetics which totaled $28.03 ...

 

[Iwanthealthyhair67]

My details:

I am relaxed 4a/4b

I'd like to promote hair growth in my edges and crown they are not completely gone but are thinning no matter how much I baby them (I believe thinning to be hereditary)

Main focus - edges and crown

I'll apply PHT at least 2-3 times weekly

I plan to start the inversion method

I recently cut my hair into an asymmetrical bob, so there will be no protective styling.

will insert pic when I get products.

 

[charmtreese]

I just ordered more Paltas, Im really liking these products. I ordered 2 more bottles of the treatment, 1 bottle of the soft hair oil, and 1 bottle of the hot oil treatment. I used the treatment after washing my hair last weekend and it air dried really soft and the soft hair oil works really well too. I will update my OP with my starting length later today.

 

[PureSilver]

I'll be using Paltas for the second time today. Below is my first and official Starting pic and Length Check for 2014. I hope to be full BSL by using Paltas, Inverting and PS hardcore.

 

[kandigyrl]

Beginning photo. 6 on shirt is APL and 8 is grazing BSL. I will start applying Paltas tonight. I plan on applying 3-4 times a week when straight a daily when curly.

 

[PureSilver]

i applied Paltas a few mins ago and i like the consistency and the smell, My SO thinks Paltas smell Pine Disinfectant..........Not cool, he says all my hair products smells like Bathroom cleaning agents.

I sense a spin off from this

 

[WhereItsAt]

I will be applying Paltas tonight. I think I will do it 3 times a week. I plan to order more tomorrow. My thoughts so far is that the smell of mine isn't as strong and my scalp doesn't tingle. Not very much these days make my scalp tingle.

My hair seems to like it and it absorbs really well into my scalp. I hope it works all and all. It makes my hair pretty soft.

 

[ilong]

All of the great posts and reviews!!! What a great way to start 2014.
I've already upated my original post with a starting pic for my alopecia area and updates.
A length check pic is in teh BSL/MBL 2014 challenge
@PureSilver - pine disinfectant? I agree with you I like the smell.

@Charmtresse - please keep us updated on the oils. If I purchase another oil - I am going to put myself on punishment!!!

I applied PALTAS yesterday. I think I will do this about 3 days a week. I tried it last week and did not like the way it made my hair feel. It felt too greasy. However, I may have applied too much. I am only applying it to my fingertips and massaging it into my scalp for a few minutes and then doing the inversion method. I will see how this works.

 

[Kerryann]

It feels a little like castor oil and the smell is not that bad neither

 

[Rozlewis]

Massaged scalp with PALTAS.

 

[destinyseeker]

Received my order today! I'm starting tonight... I'll be using it for growth and thickness especially in my crown and edges. <happy dance>

 

[destinyseeker]

Used the leave-in spray and treatment last night. Soaked into my scalp quickly and I didn't mind the smell. I wished I'd ordered more bottles of the treatment... it is small. I should order more before I need it since it took three weeks to get here.

 

[destinyseeker]

Day 2 - Oiled and massaged my scalp. I will moisturize in the am with the leave in.

 

[PureSilver]

Oiled my roots/scalp yesterday. Will oil again on Sunday.

 

[yodie]

I love how this does not sit on top of my scalp. I plan to use this all year long to determine if it's a keeper or not.

 

[Rozlewis]

Massaged scalp with PALTAs and did the inversion method.

Has anyone tried the...

Hot Oil Treatment? Might be great for steaming.
The Leave In Conditioning Spray?
Sof Oil Hair Tonic?

Tried the hot oil treatment as a pre-poo on Saturday.... Spritzed my hair with water, applied and it heated up!) ...LOVE! made my hair nice and soft. I've also been using the leave in to refresh my hair in the morning or to M&S in the evening. I also have the Argan oil, the shampoo (which I plan to use to clarify once a month) and the conditioner.
