Joining! I tried doing this last year but stopped when my boyfriend said my hair smelled funny. :/

Now I want to try using a method where I put it in for a couple of hours and rinse it out.

Starting Length- BSL, but with scraggly ends from a setback from the summer.
Projected/goal- hopefully, only wearing sulfur for a few hours will help me make it to MBL by may. I want to gain 5 inches, and trim 2 of those five off.
Regimen- Co wash daily with ORS or Humective. Coconut oil/jojoba/castor for moisture and seal. Im going to buy some Aloe vera juice later on. Wear in a bun. Aphogee two min once a week. Hair One because my hair gets condish bulidup badly.
Method of Sulfur Application: BT on scalp. Heat with that for 30 mins, two hours soaking. Rinse. with cowash.
Other growth aids- Maybe some MSM and hair vitamins.

 

[Lovelylife]

Definitely sign me up!

Starting Length: Right now I'm at full BSL
Projected/Goal Length for December 2011:Midback or Waistlength
Regimen: I'll be deep conditioning twice a week, doing protein every two weeks, co wash on days that I'm not deep conditioning, scalp massages and protective hair styles.
Method of Sulfur Application: I'm not really sure yet, I'll see what everyone else is doing. I do know that I would like to use sublimed sulfur.
Other Growth Aids: Starting in January I'll be taking MSM, multivitamins and fish oil pills. I dance around the house sometimes and I try to eat protein with nearly every meal.
