Foufie- Glad the itching has stopped 
aa9746- Congrats on your closing!!!
Just checking in...Our first official length check is in 10 days and I'm soooo excited to see how everyone is progressing. The past few weeks I've been experiencing hairexia and I had to blowdry
to make sure I was getting results.
I tried my first co-wash (off my regular reggie) last week and It didn't go all that well but I got some great advice from the ladies (possibly u). I think I'll try it out after I finish this challenge...I think I got so caught up in the co-wash threads that I jumped right on the bandwagon
Hope u all are growing well...See u in 10 DAYS

Gahhh! I've been so bad about applying my MT. I'm down to ~once a week during pre-poos.

okay so I know I have growth! How much I don't know because I still haven't straightened But I am pulling my curls (at the nape and near the ears) down at 3/4" inch more than before I started MT. I use my tat for measurement. Unfortunately I had a detangling mishap yesterday morning and I lost some hair. I wanted to cry and I found it wasn't as much as I thought. So I quickly slapped in a pony after untangling that mess and then I got I really looked at it and figured it is a SMALL setback and it will grow again.

I'm using my post for pictures, it took forever for me to flat iron. Too much work for me to do another length check.

MY ROUTINE
Weekly
I wash my hair at night with Kiehl's Olive Fruit oil, Nourishing shampoo, then apply OCT to my roots, scalp and length of my hair, cover with a plastic cap and leave on overnight, the next day, I remove my plastic cap and cover my hair with creme rinse and rinse off. I towel dry my hair, then I apply Kiehl's Olive Fruit oil deeply repairative hair pak, and leave on for five minutes, then rinse off.
I style my hair with a mixture of Ovation creme rinse, castor oil and aloe vera gel.
Daily
I rinse my hair with a mixture of L'oreal Elvive conditioner, Ovation creme rinse, glycerine, rosewater and water. Also I apply my OCT/MT mixture, which contains castor oil, glycerine, rosewater, MSM, sulphur, garlic powder, Vitamin E, Evening primrose, essential oils, peppermint and lavender.

i haven't posted here in a while, but i have been using MT rather regularly.
i won't really know any results until i perm because i'm almost 14 wks post and my ng is creating incredible shrinkage.
seeing the shrinkage almost depresses me because it makes my hair look shorter than when i first started using MT! (yeah, it's supposed to get LONGER, right? lol!)
within the next 2-3 weeks, i will perm and hopefully have some conclusive and positive information about my first try with the MT!
HHJ ladies!

Checkin in:
Whether I am in or not , I applied my mt/mn/sulfur 8 mix this morning. I washed and deep condition and moisturized and sealed and baggy right now, on my cornrows I did yesterday.

Officially withdrawing guys. I'm seriously slacking off with this. I mean, I'll still keep up with it, but I don't think any of my results or lack of thereof, could be accurately attributed to my MT use.
Keep on keeping on though!

this morning, before i got too busy to forget to use it, first thing off, i put my MT mix using my applicator bottle in through my roots.
i know it's hard to keep up with all of this, PoketVenus, and many times, i slack off too, but just try to get back to it little by little, even if only once a week or once a month.
forgive yourself and try to get back with it whenever you can.
we'll be here waiting for ya!
