SG, I usually get my essential oils at the pharmacy but you can find them at the health food stores as well.

As for Crown and Glory, I have not started my braids yet, just waiting till I have some more new growth. Most likely I expect about mid January to put in my braids.

Oh, c'mon ladies! You're breaking my little spirit here!! You know, I guess it's the Cheerleader/Marketing Professional/Research Hound/I-just-want-you-to- try-it-since-I-love-it in me

I know why you really didn't like it Nay, because Mona isn't here to help me convince you!!

Mona, where are you?????? The MNT Girls need you!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR MNT'ERS!!! SG! thanks so much for letting me know the site was up and running! I really missed u guys! And I was having withdrawal!

I'm sorry that some didn't have the fantabulous experience that MNT provides for the rest of us. We must all remember the mantra that sometimes different things work for different heads. I feel lucky that I have hair (which is 4a/b and fine) that adapts pretty well to most everything...but responds better to some...and my lucky lil head does respond to the MNT conditioner...and after getting my touch up...I can REALLY see the difference in terms of thickness, so I'm definitely keeping the MNT in my arsenal of hair care!

Also, I copped the MNT Shine On! I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE it! I have to pick up the Detangler this weekend!

Everybody keep up their Tail feedback! LOL!

Hi Mane 'N Tail users

I tried the Original Shampoo and Conditioner this morning...and I think I love it! I'm airdrying my hair in a bun right now, and it feels so soft and smooth, and I hardly lost any hair in the detangling process. Plus, it didn't smell as bad as I thought it would. So far, I'm a believer! Can I join the club too?

 

[Needmyhairtogrow]

I don't know how much you ladies are willing to invest in Maine N Tail products so here's my findings. On www.horsehealthusa.com they offer the mane n tail original shampoo and conditioner each at @ $5.49 a quart. They also sell by the gallon for both for $15.89. Just letting you know.

 

[bri123]

Hi Ladies,

I wanted to join also. I did buy just the conditioner and it leaves my hair soft. I am going to buy the detangler as well.

Welcome Needmyhairtogrow! I think that is great about the website you mentioned you get more for your money with the Mane and tail products.

[bri123]

Hi ladies,
Thanks for the warm welcome. Is it possible to use the original Mane and tail for everyday conditioner washes. I don't like the shampoo. Any suggestions anyone? Or would it be better for every other day instead of everyday.
thanks

[tryn2growmyhair]

My hair is very finicky and it really does not get a long with many products, but it likes the MNT conditioner. I have the detangler and other products but I am scared to use leave-ins with protein in my hair. I don't know about using it for CO washes, because I use it mainly for my weekly Cathy Howse Deep treatments.

 

[nolechik]

bri123

Since joining "da club," I've used MNT cond. once during a cond. wash & it left my hair very soft & manageable!!! I'll definitely be using it again to con/wash in the near future. The best thing to do would be to try it for a couple of days to see how u like it, and if it doesn't work for you just change it up to maybe every 2 or 3 days.

 

[bri123]

Thanks Nolechik! I have been using it for a couple of days and like it. I am thinking about about diluting it with distilled or bottled water and adding marshmallow root to a spray bottle and use it for when I get braids in the summertime.

My review. Ok so far I've had good results. This is a moisturizing product but don't expect slip. I think people might expect that and maybe that cause some to be more disappointed. I shampoo, conditioner and rinse some (not all) out of my hair. Then I added a little more conditioner and put in some softee coconut oil. My hair was soft but for some reason my ends weren't. I think I made the mistake of not letting the ends air dry enough before wrapping it up in a scrunchy. Well that's my results. I like it and it's going to be in my rotation but don't get mad...I'm still loving my Nexxus combo (Humectress and Keraphix mix).

LOL@Jasmin. I know the Prez will just be pleased that you gave it a try. Girl...ain't nobody mad! I ain't giving up my KeraCare or my CON as much as I have grown oh so fond of the MNT. It's just another bullet in your arsenal girl towards good hair care that works for you!

 

[MonaLisa]

How's da MNT people doing? I thought about y'all when I slapped some on my head this weekend and put on my plastic cap..lol.

Hope all is going well with this lovely product and happy hair growing...

 

[SouthernGirl]

Hey There Mona

How are ya? Good to hear from you. I'm still going strong with MNT! I actually tried someone's idea of spiking the conditioner with oil and applying it as a leave-in.

It was FABULOUS!! I poured some conditioner in a little jar and added a bit of WGO. The smell was awful, but it'll probably be good with other odorless oils too. Whoever recommended gets

BTW, Mona, I'll be in your fair city next week! Just got my meetings confirmed for the 26th-28th, then I'll be back again in March

Talk to ya soon,

SG

 

[dontspeakdefeat]

I still likey!! I use it no less than once a week!

 

[SouthernGirl]

Hey DSD ,

Glad you still likey!!! I know you're getting great results. Talk to ya later Chica

 

[Victory1]

OK, Last night I did my first conditioner wash. I bought the Mane n tail conditioner and the detangeler. I left the conditioner in my hair for a little over 30 minutes, then rinsed off and apply detangeler. I have to say, doing the combing out process, I lost more hair than usual, at one point I was scared. It might not have been the Mane n Tail, I've been mixing my surge and ORS carrot oil to create this gooi promonade and applying it to my scalp; this has made my hair wiry instead of free flowing (will not do that again).
Anyway, I air dried my hair and added some WGO, it turned out beautiful and so soft. This Saturday is a normal wash day, I will be using GPB for the 1st time! I've decided to do a conditioner wash every Wednesday (I don't know why I waited so long, love this!!!). I will give Mane n Tail one more try on Wednesday. So I'll wait then to decide if I love it or hate it. Right now I'm neutral (hate the hair loss while detangling, love the result after drying).

Hi Victory

Sorry about the hairs you loss , but I have a couple questions:

1) How far are you post-relaxer (assuming you relax)? I notice that I shed a lot more when I'm really far along no matter what I use
2) The Surge/Carrot oil blend- how long have you used that? This may not be the culprit, but if you're saying it's gooey and made your hair wiry, it may explain the loss

I don't do conditioner washes but am planning on trying it with the MNT. Is there any reason you leave it on for 30 minutes? Also, are you doing it in the shower? Try the Co wash in the shower for less time (maybe 5-10 mins or however long it takes you to shower) then rinse. I'm assuming you mix Surge w/Carrot Oil soo it won't irritate your scalp? If you can stand it, maybe try Surge by itself, then add your scalp oil (or maybe spike it with a lighter oil). Also, make sure you're using your wide-toothed comb (but I'm sure you're doing that)

HTH,
SG
