braid-outs (look like a broke down s-curl)
twist-outs (worst than the braid-out)

s-curl moisturizer (It's okay, but too much hype)
Loreal anti-frizz cream( Did absolutely nothing for my frizz)
protective styles/Baggie Method(thinning side temples too much)

Even though this did not work for me, I really appreciate all of the ladies sharing and great advice.
 
Elasta's Mango Butter - just sat in my hair and made it hard, alos it doesn't absorb into the hair well

MNT conditioner - it's just yucky, too heavy and made my hair hard

NTM serum - just sat in my hair

Not trimming often - too much splittling

Fingercombing instead of detangling with a comb - made a bunch of knots develop

Kearcare hydrating detangling shampoo - it's DRYING!

CON shampoo- leaves too much residue

aphogee treatment for damaged hair - did not stop breakage

Motions with oil relaxer - made my hair turn from it's natuaral dark to medium brown into dark, medium and light brown and made it weak and dry. It isn't quite a lye relaxer, it contains calcium hydroxide

WGO - worked at first, but them it left some kind of residue in my hair, didn't give the shine that I get from my oil mix now

I'll be back if I can remember more :)

I just do a light shampoo. Mix a dab of shampoo with water and wash with that. Apply conditioner.

MTG-Nothing.... if anything i am seeing hair loss:( my mother and my sister has noticed the same this. I mean seriously i think i just got a screwed up batch.
 
--NTM leave-in, truly did not see the hype
-ORS Mayo... dear jeez, i used this once, and my hair turned into dreads!!! :eek: the only time it worked was when i left it overnight, mixed with something else. Everytime after that, it just sucked :ohwell:
-S-Curl- if anything it dries out my hair, but I use it in my moisturizer mix and it's ok
-CON- for a while, it sucked, but then i realized it could be a bunch of protein from other stuff that i had in my hair... i might use it again when i'm 10+ weeks post... i remember how it made my hair truly lay down once
-Not combing - i still don't do it, but jeez, if anything i get more tangles!
-ORS olive oil as a daily moisturizer- good for ends, but make hair extra greasy
-SURGE- no good amount of growth, if any, just made my scalp really sensitive
-all the vitamins! - i can't do that to myself, when i first started i took 5 Biotin capsules a day to get to 5000mg and 2 of the Vitamin B and one multivitamin... i got so sick of it... didn't see anything great, although i didnt even do it for a month. i'm just down to my multi-vitamin. Thinking of taking Lecithin too :look:

Nexxus Emergencee-- still don't get the hype about this product, it did nothing for me!

The Lacio, Lacio gives my hair a nice sheen, but it makes it hard and brittle over time. I ended up giving it away. Strangely enough, what works best for my hair is any three of the Elucence shampoos, along with the Moisture Balancing Conditioner, drying my hair wrapped up in a super absorbent towel, then pinning it up in a twist. No leave-ins, and no oils. My hair stays soft ALL DAY! If I want to flat iron my hairso it's less puffy, I use a ceramic flat iron and the Elucence Silk Elixir. Since I wash my hair daily, I rarely ever flat iron it.

This simple method has done more good in keeping the hair on my head and helping it to grow longer than any other thing I've ever done. The more products I use on my hair, the less healthy and more brittle it feels.
 
Suave Milk & Honey, MY HAIR HATED IT & MADE IT ROCK HARD....
Sta Sof Fro, A WATERY MESS ON MY HAIR...
Wonder 8 hair oil, SMELLED LIKE BABY POWDER & GAVE ME HEADACHES.... :ohwell:
I never finished these products i gave them to family.
 
-Bunning (broke my hair off in the middlelooks like someone took scissors and cut it straight through the middle)

-Sta so fro (did nothing, but make hair greasy)
-cw
-oils
-ntm leave in
 
I forgot to add oils. My hair hated it; they just sat on my hair and made oily messes everwhere i put/laid my head. I only put them in my conditioner now & rinse them out.
