-EQP Mango Butter
-Glover's Dandruff Control Medicine...although my aunt told me back in the early 90's that's what she used on my cousins hair, which is lovely and thick.
-Returned to Sulfur 8 because of this board. No regrets.
-S-Curl...I think I am slightly allergic...it always makes my hair shed a lot more.
-Went back to my NTM products. Why oh why did I leave in the first place?! :lol:
-Went back to CON green label shampoo.
-Cayenne pepper to mix with EVOO...burned the heck out of my nape area (no where else did it do that), but the hair back there grew a lot!
-EVOO...still a staple
-Coconut milk...love it
-Honey...nope. Makes my hair dry and stringy no matter how I use it.

Surge, NTM, Salerm 21, Elucence, Alberto VO5 Strawberries 'n Cream, Suave Coconut and Honey, Lacio Lacio, Cinnamon and Sole. So far only 2 of the 8 have worked for me. I'm jumping off the product junkie bandwagon because of these statistics.

Click to expand...

What things didn't work (I'm being nosy)??


Things that worked for me (at least the ones I can think of because there are so many)...

Kenra (I love this line and would have NEVER even thought to use it)
Elucence
Elasta QP
Aubrey GPB
BBD Stretch
Black n' Sassy Leave-in
MTG
Mixing my own oils
Using Unrefined Shea Butter as a Moisturizer for hair


I also want to mention some concepts that I got from LHCF...

Stretching relaxers beyond 8 weeks (I have only made it to 10 weeks, once, but I never thought I could before. Now I am going for 12 weeks.)

Being proud about not going to a hairdresser (I have always wanted to handle my own hair but I thought that it would be "better" to go to a professional. Well, after all the horror stories and the fact that I cannot find a good stylist in my area, I am doing everything on my own.)

Airdrying and finding more ways to style my hair without heat (I used to use heat everyweek. I would blowdry with a comb attachment and then curl with a hot iron. My hair was fried.)

I've added MTG, Scurl, and Mega Hair Vitamins only because of this forum to great results so far.

Also because of LHCF, I'm learning about proper care of my scalp and hair which is so exciting to me! I now wear my hair in a protective style, use a silk pillowcase, scalp massage, and shampoo more often.

THANKS FOR THE GREAT ADVICE!!!!!!:)
