I would also like to join the challenge. I will be using a JBCO mixture (JBCO mixed with sunflower, jojoba, fractionated coconut, babassu, safflower and walnut oils) both on my scalp (UGH!!!) and the length of my hair. Here is my starting pic, which was taken last week.

My starting pic is in my siggy. (I failed at attaching pics)

THanks to Hairsnob, I have a yummy JBCO/sulfur mix. I'm adding coconut oil to my mix though. Can't wait to see the results. My plan is to apply JBCO mix to my scalp 2-3 times a week. My next relaxer is in mid-December so I'm praying for supernatural growth of 2 more inches in the next 3 months. Let's do this. :grin:

Count me in as well. I have 2 bottles of the drugstore kind. After I finish these bottles I'll purchase some JBCO for the first time. I'll be taking out my crochet braids Monday night and will take some hair pics then.

Okay ladies I'm ready to go...I found a BSS last night that sells JBCO (Tropic Isle Living Brand) at first she gave me the original co in a little blue bottle but when I said no thats not it.. She said "wait you want the black co" and went and got this one..The funny thing is she said "For some reason all of a sudden this is in high demand, we cant keep it on the shelf!) I thought about LHCF lol.....So I'm hyped...I will be posting my starting picture tonight...

Did you find it in BK? If so where? :)

I'm in! I'll post my starting pic soon. I'll be using the JBCO on my scalp & length in an effort to improve overall thickness.

I have a question for you guys:

How much are you applying to your scalp?
How often are you applying it?
How often are you washing your hair?

I ask b/c i've used castor oil several times in the past, and I found it hard to wash out of my hair. I also find that it has a tendency to make the hair very sticky/tacky. I just it's an oil that can be hard to work with b/c of it's thickness. The only way I could use it is on airdryed hair b/c my hair is fluffier then. If I rollerset my hair and I apply castor oil to my scalp it will def weigh down my hair ridiculously. I'd be interested in using it b/c of all the rave reviews it gets.

I've learned from here that a little goes a long way... I just apply a little to my scalp (dry hair) and message it in... for me it just melts into my scalp.. I use it 2x a week, Mondays and Wednesdays since my wash days are on Thursdays.

So you don't part your scalp in a small sections and apply it w/ your fingertip? Kinda like how you use to get your scalped greaed when you were a kid? :lol:

very little, you don't need alot.

How often are you applying it?

2x's a week

Use very little it should absorb into your scalp it shouldn't sit on the hair. If you plan on using it to seal use a little it shouldn't be runny.

Yes you can apply it like your greasing your scalp, another way is to use an applicator bottle with a fine tip. I will post that info later.
