Sulphur Mix Challenge 2013

[HairPleezeGrow]

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.

It's up to you on which you want to do. I've done bith. I have all the ingredients to make my own but only use it if and when I run out of the already made product and don't have the funds to repurchase yet. You can definitely make your own and use it bc its cheaper in the long run. I use bith bc I know the ready made stuff works and I can afford it for now.

heirloom, Can I be an unofficial challenger. I have NJoy's growth oil but I only use it on wash days because otherwise I break out. I would like to be in the challenge though and just sort of hang out. What say you?

1. I am keeping my hair in a protective style at least 5 days a week.

I will be using NJoy's growth oil every wash day while DCing. When my hair gets longer and I can cowash mid-week, I will use it before I cowash.

@Angelicus - ITA with HairPleezeGrow - both types of sulfur preparation (DIY and ready-made). I currently have sulfur 8 mixed with MN, MSM liquid in my S-Curl, one oil mix with Liquid MSM, a second mix with powdered sulfur and I plan on ordering liquid gold, while it is on sale (35% off until tonight 10pm - see July what's on sale thread) and I have a little MTG leftover in a container

I rotate the sulfur products. For the next couple of weeks I am going to use MSM Liquid. It doesn't smell and doesn't destroy my jewelry.

Okay changed my mind about my hair. I ended up applying my oil and then dcing with the slip so I can do a twistout. Applied the dc to dry hair this time so hope I still love it.

Hey ladies I joined the other challenge thread at the end, I want to be an un official challenger( I don't have any pics). I have been using Njoy's new and improved oil for about 2 wks now about 3x's a week. I am in between apl and bsl, some of my longer strands are touching bsl. My long term goal is even, healthy and thick mbl. I will miss Njoy she was always very positive.

 

[PureSilver]

I'm an unofficial challenger too. I've been using LGGO for a few weeks now and my edges have been filling in. Also i am losing less hair thankfully and its not as drying as i expected.

[faithVA]

Oiled my scalp with diluted NJoy Growth Oil. Applied my DC and doing and overnight DC.

 

[Froreal3]

Oiled my scalp with NJoy's Growth Oil and put a little Scurl and Hairitage Hydration on the length since it felt a little dry. I then baggied overnight.

 

[HairPleezeGrow]

Oiled my scalp last night and applied lime oil to my cornrows. Im not getting my braids so I cornrowed my hair to continue to wig it.

Hey ladies! Guess I'm back to posting over here!!! Any hoot, can't post any pics right now but the oil is working. I will definitely get some pics up soon. I'm back to oiling every night and baggying for no more than 4 hours. Also doing inversion to see if I can get a boost! I need to get back to exercising and working on my diet. I just let everything go!

 

[Anticipatience08]

Used my NJoy mix the other day and it made my weave hair super oily (rocking a sew-in). Maybe I should rub a tiny bit on my scalp instead of using the applicator bottle to apply it?

 

[TraciChanel]

Checking in. Doing my weekly sulphur treatment on my scalp tonight after my DC.

 

[HairPleezeGrow]

Applied my oil and dcing with HQ honey pineapple

You could do that and see how it works. Oil and weave don't mix so you want to be frugal with applying.

Just tried it tonight. I may not have applied enough this go round out of fear, but I think this will be my method from now on!

 

[candie19]

I'm in. This is my concoction...

MSM liquid
Jojoba oil
JB castor oil

I apply it every morning and before bed. I get tingles so I hope that its working.

 

[abioni]

Has anyone gotten a good result from MSM powder mix in water based formula versus Sublime Sulfur oil mix?

[tapioca_pudding]

Taking a break from NJoy's oil since I'll be doing my BKT in a week.

 

[Froreal3]

Oiled my scalp with NJoy's oil, massaged, and baggied for about three hours.

 

[Angelicus]

I am officially joining the challenge but I don't have time to do all the picture taking and stuff right now, lol. When I get Njoy's oil, I will post progress.

Last night I made a Modified NJoy Sulfur Mix recipe:

2 oz EVOO
2 oz Regular Castor Oil
1 oz Silk Dreams Nourish Oil (yummy ingredients)
1 oz Silk Dreams End-Tegrity Ends Serum (yummy ingredients)
8 drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil
Few drops of Pecan Pie Fragrance Oil
1/2 heaping teaspoon sulfur powder

I applied the stinkiness to my scalp and massaged. I left it on overnight. Then I cleaned my scalp with Grisi Sulfur Soap (10% sulfur) and followed with a conditioner. My scalp tingled with happiness.

I don't have a set regimen yet but I will probably be co-washing 2x-3x a week when the Njoy Oil comes in the mail. I am redeeming the BOGO 50% sale today. Of course I am still going to be using Silk Dreams, just need to figure out a good regimen. I'll try reading this thread in its entirety for help. Thanks everyone.
