The OCT/MT Challenge Progress Pix!

Rhapsdyblu,

I am soooo happy for you. Your hair filled in nicely. You go girl!!

I know how elated you must feel. I haven't had hair in my nape area for years. For years, I couldn't wear my hair up because I had kucks in the back and I was too ashamed. NOT ANYMORE! MN was a great starter and now OCT/MT has brought it all home. I can wear my hair up without being ashamed.

I'm celebrating with you.

I posted these to the main thread, but I forgot to post these here. These are my pics. Number 2, 3,& 5 were taken June 14 before MT. Number 1 & 4 were taken yesterday July 11, 1 1/2 weeks after starting MT. I had not officially joied the challenge because I was ashamed - my hair looked so bad, but after reading all of you guys support & seeing others progress pics, I came out of lurk mode, started posting, & finally got the courage to show the pics.

BTW, after posting them, the response was overwhelming. I still cry every time I read another note of love, support, & encouragement.

Thanks

Hi girls,

As you know, I currently have a sewn in and its kinda hard to see if I'm getting growth with MT. The only way to see if I'm getting growth or not with MT is my nape area and side burns. Well, I've been rubbing MT in nape area at night followed by Hydratherma's Natural Daily Growth Lotion. In the morning, I only use Surge and Hydratherma Natural Daily Growth Lotion.

So, over the last couple of days I've been playing with the hair in my nape area b/c I discovered this weird piece of hair that came out of no where. See pic below.

Tell me if my eyes are deceiving me, did my hair grow a .5 in ten days? I want to know so I can make sure I'm recognizing growth accurately.

I did notice that my hair got a little thicker. Now, I've been doing the Surge and Hydrotherma growth lotion regimen for a month before starting MT. But this weird peak did not appear until after I added MT to the regimen.

What do you think? Is this growth real? Please be honest.

WOW JL, are you kidding me? Even Stevie Wonder can see that your hair has not only grown longer, but thickened up as well:grin:. Girl I know you can't wait to take down that sew in, huh? I know I can't wait to see your full progress. Keep us posted honey.

ITA!!!!! :wow: :wow: :wow: Girl, that is definitely growth AND thickness you've picked up there!
 
Thanks, Ladies.

My DH is true picture critic and he said yes. I still didn't believe him. What's bothering me is the time frame. I just can't imagine getting that much growth in 10 days, or to make it simple...a week.

Ya'll know I was wining a few days ago...(in a whiny voice) "I'm not feeling the itchies or tenderness." :crying3:

Yes, I can't wait to take down my weave. I have to take down this week - two weeks early. But I'm putting right back up that day. I've expressed in other threads that I'm really loving my Indique curly weave. (hair in avi) Can't let it go.

I'll keep you guys posted.

JL,

At first I thought your part was different which explained the length (b/c its so obviously longer :yep:) but then I remembered you are in a weave, no doubt about lady....thats serious growth. So exciting to see esp in the little time you used it. :runs off to megatek:
 
And looking at it again (was checking out your part) it looks like the part has filled in some, too!!! And since it looks like you already had NG in the first picture - :yep: :yep: - fabulous growth!

Oh wow, Carib I didn't even notice the hair under the track.

My concern was that maybe some hair came out from under the track and gave me the illusion that the hair grew.

But, I guess that's not the case.

Thanks for the support, ladies.

First, let me say that your hair is definitely longer and thicker and your eyes are NOT deceiving you.

Secondly, I know just how you feel. I still stare at my pix and cannot believe it's been 2 weeks. So I know why you are asking and needing reassurance. But my dear, the proof is there.

Gurl.... when you take that weave down - slang that hair.

Yeah!!!!
 
London Diva,

Your results are so motivating:grin:. I can not wait to try the Mega-TeK Rejuvenator. I have beenm using MN and getting great results but my mixture is running low so i definitely am off to make my purchase.

Thanks ladies for all the update pics.

I posted this same post in the OCT sticky thread also.



Aiight I'm back and managed to upload these damn pics from my holiday....

These pics are exactly 2 calendar months apart. I used either MT rejuvenator or MT rebuilder (which ever was closest to hand at the time) applied on the scalp daily and washed my hair once a week. No matter how many times I write this people still PM me asking me how often I use it and how:rolleyes:. I use it on the scalp like you would a hair grease. The MT rebuilder I added a lil castor oil to combat the dryness the rejuvenator didn’t need any extra moisture.

Both pics were after a fresh touch up. The first pic was after a touch up and hair cut. (1st pic March, 2nd Pic May)


I was on vacation in NY and Dallas (both were hot n humid) and post relaxer (2nd pic) I didn’t use MT at all. I came back on Tuesday and started using it again, after 2 days on freshly touched up hair straight at the scalp after 2 days later, I felt the smallest on new growth kicking in again. If anyone want to doubt that, then go ahead, the proof is in the pics this stuff works and is no reversion. I partied every night for 10 days in a humid climate and anything that would have sweated out would have, nothing, nada. And from the growth I got in 2 months post haircut it’s safe to say I am no longer a skeptic and believe 10000000% in this product and that I’ll never need to buy another growth aid in my life. I am officially a slow hair grower ¼ inch a month if I’m lucky, this stuff has propelled my growth well over 100%. No OCT for me, the woman couldn’t even get back to me on the long a$$ e-mail I wrote, plus for half the price and the same results I’ll stick with the rebuilder. All my hair rests comfortably behind my shoulders now, the cut was grazing just on or past my shoulders 2 months ago and my post cut ponytail was pitiful but healthy :grin:

I’ll be touching up again before I hit Vegas for the convention so another 2 months or so to go till the next one.

I now I feel I can join JustKiya and Sareca in the pic testimonial stakes that are worthy.:grin:

Awesome growth, JamaicaLovely! WOW:grin:
 
OK...I hope I did this right, but the pic in my siggy (hope it's there) are my senegalese twist. I just got them done on Friday, 7/11. Used my MT as soon as I got home. They are somewhat loose already, and trust me, they were put in rather tight. I diluted mines with water, and use the color applicator bottle, however, I don't feel the "tingles" yet.
