The OCT/MT Challenge Progress Pix!

which product in the OCT are people using? Is it the cream rinse or the cell therapy or both?

karlap January Noir and I are using the entire line along with a few others, ie, the shampoo, cell therapy and the creme rinse. I really feel they work excellent together. I also have the entire MT line as well and I feel the same way about the MT line as I do about the OCT.
 
I'm so jealous! I want a steamer so badly...

Good luck and don't give up! No matter what!! :)

The steamer is GREAT. You have to invest in one. I brought one from China and had to buy a converter. It was a process, but now that I have it I definitely don't regret it.

I did the same thing only I took off 1/2" which still represents a whole month's progress:nono:. :ohwell: I am gonna do better for the December reveal I think.

I had a friend take some photos of my little fro. Gonna put them in my fotki and measure my progress each month. I longgg to be able to wear my hair in a bun or a knot.

Ladies, you all encourage me so much.

Decided to journal and track my hair progress from now until Dec. 2009 in my fotki.

Check out my albums/journals. PW is in my siggy.

Caution: don't expect to see nice coils, advice, great styles. It's just me and my mane in it's natural state. ENJOY!!

I can't see any pictures in your album, it seems it it empty.
 
Thank you so much for the wonderful compliment. My husband told me tonight that he is just in awe of how much my hair has grown and how good it looks. Of course I am as inpatient as all get out.

I think it is such a blessing how we can and do inspire each other without even realizing it - just by sharing our struggles and our regimes and our successes. Even when we don't see it, we post and others help us to see how far we've come. That's what you all do for me.

So, woman, you keep up the great work.

BTW, you ladies have bought up all the MT on the planet. Poor horses are crying and complaining cause their owners can't find any cell rebuilder to help repair their poor damaged manes and coats. I tried every site I knew to get the gallon size of MT & they were all sold out. Finally googled MT gallon size & found one place & I quickly bought it up before you guys empty out their warehouse.:lachen:


rhapsdyblu, I love reading your posts, they are so inspiring and encouraging. I can tell you are a really sweet lady.

Sometimes your posts put s a smile on my face and makes me laugh too.

Keep up the good work on your hair and HAPPY GROWING!

Sindeee

Ladies,
everyone's hair is so pretty. I hope to get even a portion of that growth. If I can get to APL-not even back to my original BSL, I will be grateful.

Blessings.
 
Don't see why not!


Cool if showing the back of my head is "showing my hair" then oh well lol I don't show it in public. Note that I didn't start using MT until 8-9-08. So roughly 2 weeks progress. Also I'm mixing the MT with my own concoction including MN and other stuff.

Ok this picture was taken 8-5-08

lmaoooooo@reverse widows peak yeahhh my mom was like ughhhhhhhh you're trying to have hair on your neck or something lol I can't wait for this perm to come out so far it's been 3 months since I permed it I guess I have a year or so to go maybe less at this rate.​
 
It is good stuff. It is what I used when I had my health issues in 1999 and lost so much hair and had bald spots. (Refer Fotki). MT was a mainstay. I used to talk about it in one of the old hair forums under the name Shebanoire. I used it solid for a year. I am so glad it worked for you too. HTH bonjour


Why did you stop using it?
 
It look a long time for my hair to grow. And I've experienced a lot of setbacks where I had to trim a few inches here and there, even though I was stretching relaxers and doing protective styles 99% of the time. But I do have a very long torso. That could be why the brastrap hangs down so low. I tried several other bras in my arsenal and they ALL hang down low. I do notice and have been told that I have a long back. The last time I did a trim was may in May but I wasn't using MT/OCT regularly. Look at my ends in June. Notice how bad they look. I didn't trim again, hoping that if I work on them enough, they catch up (see the gap on the right).

I did a touch up two weeks ago and didn't trim. Part of me wants to do a light dusting just to stave off some splits, but my ends don't look bad even now. I attribute it to the OCT because that's the only thing I've done differently and consistently since June. I'm using WEN but only once a week. I just started using WEN, too, so I can't safely contribute the progress to that alone. By deductive reasoning, then, it has to be the MT/OCT.

Thank you so very much. I do hope that I'm getting an inch a month. Again I relaxed two weeks ago and it already feels like I'm getting some waves. My hair never grows fast and has never been this long.

Henna is great as well!!! :)

I think after not having significant hair growth this MT/OCT is just what you need. It certainly is a moral booster. :yep: I hope I see some growth because I am so tired of shoulder length hair. Really I am. If you get an inch per month that means 12 inches a year! Does anyone get that much? I am tempted to dust as well. I bought a good pair of sissors 3 weeks ago and I'm scurred! I've been using MT for 2 days now and my hair is much softer and smells GRRRRRRREAT! I just took down my twists because the hair at my roots were puffy and had completely un-twisted. LAWD! So I had a tangled mess. Must have been the swimming and steam room yesterday. But hey I enjoyed myself! :grin:

Oh, what is WEN?

:lachen: :lachen: I do believe that the LHCF ladies are indeed buying up the Mega-Tek! I bought two bottles of Rebuilder on KvVet and I went back to see if they had any more and it said: Out of Stock. LOL It was me, I took the last few bottles! YEAH! If this works for me I will buy a gallon or at least 2 more bottles. :yep: Those sweet horses!
 
Why did you stop using it?

I am very sensitive to certain smells and I found the smell of coconut just overwhelming. It never occurred to me that I could change the smell by adding essential oils. Now I add a drop of an essential oil and it makes all the difference. Also, I got the results I wanted which was to start my hair growing again and filling in the bald spots. Did you see my Fotki, yet and see the 'damaged' hair section? My hair got pretty thick and I was also adding a lot of homemade fatty oil combos at the same time and a barrage of protein treatments and bagging quite often. Finally, my focus at the time was not on length, but on 'recovery' and once that happened I moved on.

'Until now!. I want to see what I can accomplish with it now, since it is now the rage. Want to add that I will do a run of MT and then a run of my homemade sulphur mix as I do not want my hair to become indifferent to the MT and the growth slow down and my scalp gets touchy with the MT after about 3 weeks. I am going for growth SURGES on a constant basis. Hope this helps.

Hi ladies - the progression from MT is amazing! I had to jump on that bandwagon as well. I'm not sure what I'll mix with but I'll keep reading the posts while I wait for my pkg.

To answer the question in purple - WEN is a "cleansing cond." by Chaz Dean to replace shampoo. To me its like a high in cond. for a co-wash. I bought a sample pkg. of 3 - 6 oz on special from QVC - they smell great & make my hair really soft. :grin: In his presentation he said WEN is New backwards a new way to wash hair, etc. etc.
 
Ok ladies, I applied it tonight after washing my hair and I'm getting a slight warming/some throbbing/itches going. That's good, right? It's mostly in the front but I think it's because my hair is thinner there. It's always been thinner in the front; even when I had boocoo hair as a child!! I oiled my hair first then put on the MT like I would oil my scalp. Then got my scalp massager and massaged it in. I was only going to do this at night after I shower but now after seeing rhasody (you are a true inspriration!!!) I think I'll get my lazy butt up ten minutes early and do it in the morning too!! I'm not playin' I want my childhood hair back-now!!! And then I'ma cry like a baby. Happy tears mind you...

In the meantime, to keep me going I will visualize my hair as it used to be and continue to stalk...uhh I mean look at you all's albums/progress pictures...:lachen:

Oh, BTW...my avatar is my starting pic...I just took it on Sunday 8-24-08

I also mixed Mega Tek with my own products and so far I am very pleased with the results.

There are probably more people who are using it on this forum who just aren't telling.....:lachen:
 
N&W, I am sure there are. Last week when I tried to find the gallon size nobody had it. I finally did a google search for gallon size mega tek & found 1 place that still had it. As I said on the main OCT/MT board, there are poor horseys out there whose poor manes & coats are looking shoddy 'cause these human women on LHCF are buying up all their product. I am so sad for them.

I am so honored to hear I am an inspiration, especially since I am so impatient & frustrated. It feels like it is going so slow. My sides still are not as thick & lush as they once were & my hair is so short. Urrrrgggghhhhh:wallbash: We had to take faculty photos on Wed. They post them on the wall of the graduate school for all to see. I kept saying I am having a bad hair day & nobody could get it. Shoot, my edges were still too thin & they were going to be posted on the wall & probably the internet for all the world to see. But then I periodically see you long haired women (who I envy - btw) & you say I inspire you - WOW!

I also realize my hair issues were the result of a serious medical issue that has been resolved & I just celebrated my 57th birthday - so I am blessed. Blessed to be alive & blessed to have found you ladies.:yep:
