For Viviscal Users..........
I know Viviscal is expensive as heck so this is a little info for you ladies who are on a budget but still want to take it.
I took Viviscal back in the day when it first came out. This was when it was packaged in the black box with the gold dots~~~yeah that long ago..........and yes it did work! This was the original forumla which you had to take 2 pills per day for 6 months. I was in college so the cost really was killing me. I eventually stopped taking it as the cost and the new growth was killing my pockets. I really did have to go get relaxers more often so the cost of Viviscal and then relaxers every 6 weeks was......
. I just recently noticed they have an extra strength formula where they have doubled every ingredient but still requiring you to take the same dosage when in fact all you need to do is take one pill if you are taking the extra strength formula. Buy 3 boxes, take one per day and you'll have your six months supply!
Here is the original forumula I was taking back in the day:
