Okay, I just put a drop of The Ordinary (TO) HA2%+B5 on my scalp in the twist above my left ear. If I don't get the itchies in that area overnight, I'll start applying the TO HA2%+B5 to my entire scalp till my next wash day.
Let's
that I get an inch in the next 1 1/2 weeks!

i'm tempted to order before lhcf drains the stock
. i was gong to place an order from them today before this threadAutumn~Tint~Of~Gold

placing an order now . I was going to place a Deciem order today anyway coincidentally so this totally works for me.
I'll probably try it on my scalp and face. Their prices are very reasonable.

Now that is intriguing to me. I won't use my Xcel products because they have parabens and also because I wear straight styles and a wet spray isn't going to work and neither is the greasy topical one.
But a serum form is incredibly tempting. I have a bottle of expensive plant stem cell hair growth serum from Ulta and I still don't use it though
While I don't think 4 inches in a month is a reasonable expectation
, the idea of faster growth is very tempting.I'm sorry for shading you early in the thread though OP

You should do it, as well. Then we will have at least a three person sample, between, you, I, and OP.Oh, good! TFS! Since you're trying it, I won't! Sending prayers, 'cause if it works for you, I'll bite!

Very good point, sis. I was going to order some for my skin ANYWAY, so I'll just order one bottle and use some on my scalp and test patch of hair.

Hyaluronic Acid: History, Chemical Structure, and Its Benefits for the Body
Hyaluronic Acid in Scalp Tissue and Hair Follicles
Actually the hair and the hair follicle are a derivative of skin tissue. There are two distinctive skin layers, one, the epidermis (outer layer) which gives rise to the protective shield of the body and the other, the dermal layer (deep layer) which makes up the bulk of the skin and is where the hair follicle is located. This dermal layer is composed of connective tissue and the connective tissue, with its gelatinous fluid like characteristics provides support, nourishes and hydrates the deep layers of the scalp. The result is healthy lustrous hair and a moisturized scalp. Again, all of this is made possible because of the presence of HA in the scalp.
This company also sells a shampoo with HA and aloe (another mucopolysaccharide). I ain't touching that - too many coconut-derived chemicals.

Now I'm fascinated. (Thanks, @Sharpened!)
The site said:
Episilk™ Shampoo
Suggested Retail: $14.95
A Hyaluronic Acid shampoo that helps to support dry, lifeless hair by restoring the HA that time takes away.

Replenishing HA has done WONDERS for my skin, and I had no idea I needed to replenish it! My hair used to grow like a weed (super fast) and very healthy/strong (still grows pretty fast). I wonder if replenishing HA would help.

It could, since scalp and skin are the same for the most part. If I try HA, I will use a serum with very few ingredients or get the sodium powder for mixing. I am tempted to try aloe gel twice a week to see what happens before introducing HA.

I can't remember if the Johnson Master Organics products have been mentioned at this thread, but according to Ulta's site's ingredients listing, several of the line's products contain HA. Maybe they avoid coconut oil. I don't know. I'm getting side-eyed by family to shut things down for the night, so I'm heading to bed.
Blessings, Sharpened! I hope work is relatively peaceful and calm tomorrow. G'night!

Thank you, sweetie! Unfortunately, I have a teen still up doing schoolwork, so I have been in and out of sleep mode, not good. May as well read up on this stuff.
Ok OP has me side-eyeing my hyaluronic acid serum. If I get the urge to apply to my scalp/hair, I'll definitely post here. I'm usually not consistent with topical applications though.

The product mentioned in the OP is from the The Ordinary brand on the Deciem site
only $6.80 grab it before LHCF cleans it out because there's a thread on this brand in the makeup section too
I forsee lhcf destroying them here:

OP, staaaaaahhhhhp!
Thanks for sharing but . . . What ALL do you do? To think through what you posted, I need to know what vitamins/supplements you take and what products you use. And I need photos!
I've been taking collagen + HA in powder form, and it has done WONDERS for my skin. I was just about to look into Deciem's The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid for topical application to my face to see if that would help even more.
I'm going to order two bottles and (1) use one for my face and (2) one for my scalp and a test patch of hair, but I'm feeling kinda crazy for trying it. If I could grow a few inches of hair and be able to ponytail my hair again, that would make my regimen/routine so much healthier/better. That is the ONLY reason you got me, though!
* mutters to self: Is this like that time I had my honey put saran wrap around my egg-and-coconut-oil-drenched hair to try to grow half an inch in one night?!?? Methinks it is! *
Did that work?

that was already there when I ordered ( and before this thread was even created)
but better than out of stock altogether.

I was able to buy 4 though. Reasonably priced and free shipping over 25.
Their products look really interesting. Thanks OP for the post.

True. They must be getting a shipment, so they said it'll be late rather than stopping people from buying it altogether.

Who you think caused that delay
I'll order some bottles later.

Not permanently for me. I got an illusory initial overstretch that disappeared within days.

Lol. Smart.
I knew it was impossible, but boredom and the video "evidence" compelled me to do it. I wanted to know what was really going on.
