Count me IN! 2011 is going to be my year for tremendous growth...

Starting Length: NL in the back and SL in the front (angled bob)
Projected/Goal Length for December 2011: APL/BSL
Regimen: Wash and condition hair 2-3x/week
Method of Sulfur Application: Apply growth mixture at least every other day
Other Growth Aids: Biotin (5mg), Omega 3 Fish Oil, Calcium, Magnesium

Trying to figure out how to handle the sulfur application..do you all wash it out or leave it in? I have read some of last year and this thread & have seen where people do both...so confused. I have ordered my Bee Mine and sublimed sulfur for a more intensive treatment/prepoo for once a week. So any advice on the best way to apply for optimal results? I am transitioning and am trying not to co-wash/poo more than 2-3x/week bc I want to minimize manipulation of the battling textures :perplexed

I got Bee Mine Serum and have some sublimed sulfur on its way too! I can't wait! I was going to use the no sulphur serum for a month too but I think I'll just jump into the sublimed sulphur. I don't want to lose any possible growth I could get!! :lol:

I'm ready for this challenge!

Starting Length: NL
Projected/Goal Length for December 2011: near APL
Regimen: Wash/DC 1x week; M/S 2x daily; protective styles until April/May 2011
Method of Sulfur Application: 1 tsp sublime sulphur in 8 oz. grapeseed oil or JBCO 3x week
Other Growth Aids: multivitamin

That's exactly the mix I wanted to make once my sublimed sulphur arrives! :grin:
 
I've decided to test out natural sulfur eat one to two eggs per day. Eggs also have alot of amino acids. I won't be using sulfur topically unless February reveals that my hair growth has been pathetic.
 
finally added my starting pic to my oriiginal post on page1. I already started using my sulfur mixture so I'm ready to grow in 2011!
 
I decided to not apply sulfur topically because I'm still nervous about that. I did buy MSM 1000 mg pills and will start off with taking one a day in the morning and see how that goes first. Can I still be in the challenge if I'm only taking it internally?

I purchased Brahmi, Bhringraj and Amla oils from ayurnatural beauty and I made my sulfur mix with them. My DH has been massaging it in my scalp. I will let you know how it goes for me.

What oils are you going to purchase from them?

My scalp doesn't tingle and I'm not getting the "ichies" when I use Claudie's Sulfur Elixir. Does everyone feel this? Someone else asked the question and I didn't see an answer. How long before people typically see results. Yes, I know everyone is different.
 
I cut all of my hair off so that I could start over. I have been using the sulfur since then and I think im going to like this challenge.This is my starting pic:

This should be interesting to see, since i'm in this challenge i'll be watching your progress with sulphur usage very closely.

On another note, i need to be paying attention to my hair more because these past 2wks i've neglected all sulphur application, not sure y but i promise to get back in the game and make it count.

I have been thinking about that JBCO for a while now. I have heard good things about it too. I was thinking that it might make my sulfur mix a little thicker and that would be a good thing. I wonder if it would speed up the growth more if I added it. Hmm...:scratchch
 
Just checking in. I haven't used sulfur since the 22nd (traveling), but I will start back up on the 3rd. I only have MSM with me and I was concerned b/c my usual sublimed sulfur mix is probably still on my scalp (in a full weave) I didn't want to mix the two.
 
^^^^^Do it.I once got about 2 inches in 6 weeks(give or take didnt use a ruler just my pinky) while in a sew in.But the summer heat could have also help :lick:...
 
I have been applying cause I am in the 2010 challenge.Hopefully in 2011 I will track my growth. I have been applying for some time..I believe since November and I got some extra growth problem is I dont know how much...I just measured my bangs:grin:

Do it and let the two mix? So far, I've only been using a Sublimed sulfur mix.

That's great that you got 2 inches in such a short amount of time!

I went back to my sew in...cause trying to do my hair proved to be too much right now, funny cause I have always loved doing my hair....all wrong in the past but this healthy hair thing got me perplexed like a mug...teehee...

Rethinking a reggie to include my sulfur and weave.....lol
 
Got back in the game this morning, moisrurised with my homemade moisturiser and followed up with my Mtek mix. The tingles and itches felt great 2hrs after application.:yep:
