CG method (you would have to PRY my Silicon Mix/cone laced products out of my hands when I'm dead!)
Anti-Mineral Oil (love Silicon Mix too much for that!)
No Poo (that's just gross to me)
Baggying(too lazy)
Anti-Parabens( sounds like a crock of sh*t to me; sorry, but I would like for my products to NOT spoil after 3 days)
Sulfate Free Shampoo (well I actually tried it and it turned out to be an epic FAIL)
Shea butter mixes for moisture (Shea butter does not moisturize my hair at ALL!!)
"Natural" online hair companies (too damn expensive and I like going to the store to smell/see the product before purchasing)
ETA: No heat challenges (my relaxed hair THRIVED when I was blowdrying/flatironing my hair weekly and getting Dominican blowouts occasionally and I have straightened my natural hair since October at least 5x without any heat damage so far)
Stone me now because I definitely have spoken blasphemy to some of you guys!

MTG
Pre-Pooing
Shea Butter
Henna
Dominican Products
BKT
Heat Training
ACV Rinsing
There's a lot more that I can't remember right now. Most of the time I don't jump on bandwagons because I either think they are stupid/dangerous or because I have not seen any proof that all the extra stuff does anything that would be worth my time or money.

All natural!
All of them but the BKT, Dominican products, and moisture block. These have worked very well for me!!
The cheap conditioners bandwagon was a real waste for me.

Can someone define bandwagon because some people are naming things that I wouldn't consider a bandwagon.
Just because it doesn't work for you doesn't make it a bandwagon

1) Shaving the side of my head--though I was tempted.
2) Miconazole Nitrate applied to scalp for growth--lately tempted, but didn't plunge.
3) Getting microbraids--no one can ever talk me into this one...not after the resultant horrid edges I've seen! (and the days-long takedown)
4) Using a steamer--this is a good idea, but at this point I'm just lazy and low maintenance w/my hair...might do this in the future.
5) Henna/Indigo/Cassia (just haven't tried but may at some point).
6) BKT
7) Raw egg shakes/smoothies
8) Constant trimming "for growth" (ok that's just b.s.)
9) Leaving on DC overnight

ayurveda
taking a lot of vitamins
steamer
raw egg anything
Megatek/OCT
Maybe this is just me but I don't see anything that wrong with bandwagons. I think they're nice, especially for people who are just starting out...I notice its always the people with their regimens down completely that turn their noses up at bandwagons but how else are you supposed to know what works for your hair if you don't experiment? Not everyone has their hair act together
long live the bandwagons

Rei I must cosign.
Experimenting and trying new things is the most fun part (IMO), of this hair care thing, and I've pretty much known what I prefer (w/ regard to ingredients anyway) from jump.
I've been low/no poo, prepooing (I called it "distracting the shampoo" before LHCF), and ACV rinsing for years. So to learn new products and techniques should be more encouraged, instead of written off as following.
But of course, for me this excludes some of the sheer insanity. I'm still trying to recover from the breast milk thing I heard last night.
