Sulphur Mix Challenge 2013

[ojemba]

GN ladies.

I took out my braids yesterday and cowashed. I will be getting my hair braided in a beehive on Monday and wear my Wig for a couple of weeks.

They say pictures tell the story

This was taken yesterday April 5. Using my tat as a reference shows a big difference.

I feel like I just fell through the looking glass or stepped into a Twilight Zone episode, because I feel like I've done this before (that's sarcasm by the way)

Anyhoo...

This pic was taken on 3/17/13. I grabbed hair from the nape of the neck.

I took a pic on 4/1/13, so I can actually tell how much is growing. I took a section of hair behind my hair and measured it at 19 inches. It's a looser texture, so I'll always be able to find it It may not look like it, but this section is actually hitting the top of the 8 inch line.



Tell us your starting length WSL
Tell us your goal length Anything longer than WSL
State if your natural or relaxed or anything in between Natural, 5 years
Tell us what you are going to do to maintain all the length you gain M & S, trim away knots and splits to keep the length I have from breaking off, deep conditioning once a week, wear protective styles (twists, buns, and anything else I can come up with to keep my ends tucked away), co-wash, and apply my hair growth oil at least 3 times a week of course!

Saving my spot. My hair is currently in cornrows, so I will post my starting pic when I take it out.

How do you guys deal with dryness when using sulphur?

I haven't experenced any dryness using Njoy's growth oil but I also cowash 2x week on top of my regular wash and m/s before I baggy helps keep my hair soft and moisturized.

 

[yaya24]

Njoys original thread is in the vendor forum.
Posting still works there.

 

[heirloom]

yaya24 thanks for the info. I was in the vendor section before and I swear it wasn't there

 

[yaya24]

YW.
It probably was not there until Njoy got her vendor membership status situation figured out.

 

[Jobwright]

THE ORIGINAL THREAD IS BACK!!!! Yay!!!

How do you guys deal with dryness when using sulphur?

SpiceUpMyHair

My new growth oil was formulated to deal with the sulfur being drying issue. There's not dryness with this formula. I'm not getting any and everyone's reporting back that their new growth feels softer and more moisturized.

Wanting to avoid the dryness of sulfur? I gotchu!

Also, since our original thread is back, you can find us here.


I think this thread is going to go dormant. Don't get left behind. Come on over and join the party!

sooooooooooooo can you ladies help me out! I love using sulfur and want to again and join this challenge BUT; here is my issue, I am natural and wear my hair straight - I usually wash and flat iron every two weeks. I am finding that the build up is causing my hair to shed. Horribly!!! So How can I use oils and sulfur on my scalp if I only wash every two weeks??? Do I need to up my washing to at least weekly - but then I think that is too much flat ironing in one month? Please some advice - I want to use the mix!

 

[nakialovesshoes]

deedoswell - see the post before yours. The original thread is back up. I think you'd get better responses if you posted your question there.

Where is the original thread?

Hey ladies, I just wanted to know if any of you experience shedding from your sulphur mixes ? I have just mixed my own and now I'm afraid to use it. I used to take MSM internally but stopped because it made me shed too much. So now that I have made this mix I'm a little hesitant. I know garlic can combat shedding but I just wanted to know if the sulphur mixes cause shedding.

TIA and HHG !

Finally found this thread! Okay so I cowashed with Wen GP and then pre poo'd with lime oil for 30 minutes under a plastic cap. I then dc'd with HQ the slip and it was amazing! I applied HH marshmallow after cowashing out all the oil and dc. I wanted to roller set so I could do a bantu knot out but I suck at roller setting and ended up flat ironing my hair. I have it wrapped now and will see how it looks in the morning when I unwrap. I just ordered another bottle of "you know who shall not be named" bc I have only 1 bottle left. I'm trying to take advantage of her sale this month.

It depends on how sensitive you are to sulfur. Do a patch test on one section/area and see how you react.

For those who use MSM Liquid:


MSM Deal

Since this is the sulfur challenge and I see some use MSM I thought I would post this here also. Hope that it is OK. ( I posted it in the July What is On sale thread also)

I'll be posting properlyin here when I take out my box braids next week

Hello ladies
I've mixed my oils together with my sulphur and have been using it for about 3 days I would like to know how long before you saw results ? I know it takes time too. I had my hair in braids for 10 days today, and I see a little looseness at the base which could be growth

TIA and HHG !

 

[Angelicus]

Hi. I really want to join this but I am undecided on whether to buy all the ingredients to make my mix, or if I should just buy a growth aid that is already mixed. Can someone help? Thank you in advance.

 

[JC-Junkie]

Thank you HairPleezeGrow

Some ladies saw growth within a few weeks of using growth oils. What you can do is when you take you braids out use a tape measure and measure your nape, crown, sides and front. Write it down and then a month later measure again to see how much growth you are retaining. If you already know what your growth rate is without aids then you will have an accurate measure of of the oil is helping.
