Everyone is always talking about what DID work for them. I will tell you two things that I did NOT get results with. Be sure to take it with a grain of salt--what DIDN'T work for me, could work for others. For context, I'm a fine stranded, densely packed, 4a/3c natural.
1) MEGATEK
Who knows, maybe it has mystical properties that my hair is simply impervious to. But I frankly saw no effect. It was like a light protein treatment but not nearly as good as my usual protein product, Joico KPAK Reconstructor. Basically, no effect positive or negative after about two months of use.
2) Castor Oil
I'm sure everyone's hair is different but despite the rave reviews from trusted sources, castor oil did NOTHING for me. It is a heavy thick oil that allegedly has amazing growth/moisture/strength properties. It mostly made my hair sticky. I felt no additional moisture or softness. I got better results from olive oil which is already in my kitchen, half the price and ready to go.
So these are my product fails. Anyone else try something that is allegedly amazing only to have *womp womp* results?
