I am all up in this challenge! I never joined a challenge before but I know I will stick to this one.
I just bought the Njoy sulphur mix oil and I was hesitant at first b/c my hair gets oily and greasy very fast and I hate the feel of oily hair. Well, not with this oil. My hair is flat ironed, and I've used the oil on Sunday night and last night and this morning my hair is not a grease ball considering it's straight. I've never experienced this with oil before no matter how light handed I am. Does the sulphur counteract the greasiness of the oil?
I am transitioning and I need all the extra growth I can get for a while since I'll have shrinkage with natural hair. During the summer I will prob wash 2x/wk so that will be even better when I'm applying the oil.
I still find it to be greasy by the 2nd or 3rd nite but I'm kinda heavy handed and I have fine relaxed hair. Also I ended up cutting the tip of my bottle bc the ingredients kept clogging up the hole not allowing the oil to come through and now more oil comes thru on each application so I'm getting oiler faster than I was.
Hey Ladies,
I'll be doing a personal challenge with sulfur mix using natural oasis hair grease, once i wash my flat-ironed hair next week. I had a setback so I cut layers and the longest is now apl instead of bsl. I hope to use this sulfur mix concoction from now till this time in 2015 to get me at least to waist length.... my long term goal is for my longest layers tailbone length when flat-ironed.
I had a few questions for ya:
1. I used 1 heaping tsp in 8oz of hair grease ( so I don't get drippies, i have never had luck with oils no matter how lightly i apply) and it smells strongly of sulfur even though the grease had a natural fruity scent. I know the smell of the entire container is far stronger than the little I will apply 2-3 times a week but its very strong.I will make sure to be super light handed. Do your mixtures smell the same or what did ya do to cover it up?
2. In regards to question 2 with the strong smell do you think my products I use to do the loc method will cover the smell? I hope so. I currently use komaza, claudies revitalizer and my own oil blend to do the method pretty much on a daily basis.
2. Do you ladies get build up? I plan on using about 3 times a week and baggying for at least 30 minutes. I usually wash once per week but when it gets hotter i may make it 2-3 times and throw in a few cowashes instead of always using sulfate free shampoo.
3. When you ladies use heat to style does your hair smell sulfur/burnt? i have had this happen int he past,lol. I would likely get my hair flatironed again towards the end of May.
In case you were wondering here's the ingredients for the natural oasis hair grease I will order another 8oz jar in the next 2 months cause i hope to get 4-6 wks or more use out of the jar:

The reason I decided to go this route is Njoy is still developing a pomade version of her growth oil.... I inquired last August. Until its a go I plan on doing my own thingwith natural hair grease.
I'm re quoting cause nobody answered any of my questions.
An additional question I have is does anyone use clarifying shampoo once a month? I guess that's tied to the potential buildup that I asked about.
. I use njoy's co wash as a gentle clarifying co wash or a gentle clarifying shampoo once a month. I think u need to keep your scalp as clean as possible for optimal growthI'm re quoting cause nobody answered any of my questions.
