***2010 MN CHALLENGE***

[LadyAmani]

Ok everyone this is my first time starting a challenge so bare with me. erplexed

This challenge will officially start March 1,2010 that will give time for everyone to get there stuff together, and for any newcomers.

The challenge will end March 1, 2011

Newbies: MN is Miconazole Nitrate which is an anti-fungal found in products like Monistat or Neosporin AF. MN will help with hair growth and any scalp conditions you may have. Google MN for hair growth and you will see hundreds of testimonies for MN and accelerated hair growth, some women have even claimed getting up to two inches at times.

Some women have complained of headaches while using MN straight, if you dilute it with water or oils the headaches should go away if not then stop using it.

MN Challenge Rules:

1. Post a starting pic it doesn't have to be a whole head shot but something that we can compare it to later.

2. Post what brand of MN your using, what mixture your using, and your regimen if you like.

3. You must apply your MN at least 2-3 times a week.

4. Update at least twice a week this way we can help encourage each other not to fall off.

5. Every three months update with a progress pic.

Ok everyone lets aim for 12 inches in one year, Happy Growing!!!

I'm so in this one. I'm using Monistat 4% with Hot Six Oil and mixed with ORS Hair fertilizer.

I'm using in between my braids just three days a week. MN did wonders for my growth last month.

Thanks for starting this, LadyAmani!

i especially like the "ladies, let's aim for 12 inches in one year" part!

i am soooo totally IN!

i ordered the monistat mn this last week and hope to get it by the starting date....

i have no idea what i'll mix it with, but i'm leaning towards jbco.

hhg ladies!

 

[LadyAmani]

Hey everyone i just signed up for this deal with Amazon they'll send you two packs of monistat 7 day with 15% off and free shipping every month or every two months (auto ship) for 19 dollars a shipment(original price was 22 dollars plus 6 dollars for shipping) i think this is a great deal for anyone going the monistat route.

Here's the link:

Thanks LadyAmani, hopefully ladies using both will chip in!!???

 

[hair4romheaven]

There is a girl on BHM that uses MN +MT her hair has grown like crazy. This is why i started using it. She is such a sweet heart!http://forum.blackhairmedia.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=237334

 

[crvlnghair]

I am so in....right now I use the family dollar of MN with little Doo Gro Stimulated Growth Oil mixed in but i may go back to straight MN...will post pic before the start.

 

[wenjay]

this will be my first challenge. I'll be using Daktarin or Micospec. i'm in Barbados and i think those are the only two brands available. i also ordered megatek so i'll be using that with my MN.

I'm in braids right now so i dont have a starting pic as yet.

HHG ladies.

 

[teacherjess]

I'm in! I use MN (family dollar or Kroger brand, both 2%) mixed with WGO and apply it 4- 5x per week. I did this consistently the entire month of Jan. and saw good growth. I since stopped at the beginning of this month because I was noticing an increase in shedding (it may not have been due to the MN though). I plan on starting back up with it soon. I don't like posting pics regularly, but I will post new pics in Apr., Oct., and Apr. 2011 (look @ my siggy)

I used both last year (prior to a texlax setback) with good results. I mixed them and added Giovanni Direct Leave-In

 

[HauteHippie]

Oh, and I am so in this challenge. I'm doing am mini chop tonight and will post pics!

I use some 5 dollar MN from Wal-Mart, mixed with Giovanni Direct Leave-In and a little Megatek. Also add a bit of WGO.

I'm in! I'm shooting for BSL this year. I plan on using my MN with castor oil and peppermint oil. I ran out of my MT and OCT and I'm too lazy to buy some more at this moment. Plus MN is waay cheaper. My starting pic is in my siggy
