You do that at night? Don't it keep you up? Anyhoo I'm bout to steal... I mean borrow that recipe, sounds good but I'll be using the mild folger's and olive oil. Thanks for the info.


No, didn't keep me up at all...not that much systemic absorption for me, I guess. It does tingle though, everytime....are you doing the head massage with it?

Ok please help a sista out.

I love coffee but Im a bit ignorant about green coffee and coffee drips.

What is a coffee drip? I take it its not the same thing as me putting it in my coffee maker. Doing it that way is brewing?

I dont have any Ethiopian or Arab stores around here only Indian stores. Do you know of a good place online to get this green coffee?

I plan on doing this caffeine thing. I am currently using BT and protective styling so this caffine should give me an extra umph of hair growth.

I love the 37% longer growing phase. YEAH!!!

I am on a mission for MBL so hopefully I can get there before March
. :look:

ma'am it looks like you are there already:yep:

I shared this with a gf of mine who listens. This was within earshot of some other friends who weren't as open-minded and I'm rather upset about it b/c I wasn't speaking to them. I guess I'll share with those are are more receptive and in private.

My hair felt good too!!

Oh no I didn't massage it and I only put it on my temples. I did feel wired though. WOOOOOO!! I'll be doing your recipe this weekend though.

I did it again. I brewed two cups, and put it on. I DC'd with it (and Profective Mega Growth and ORS pak). My hair felt like butter. When I combed my hair after rinsing, there was no need to detangle and little to no hair in the comb. This is beginning to be a staple for me.

Report. Hair has been worn in a weekly co-wash-n-go bun for one month. At day's end, when removing satin scrunchie, for the last month, shed hair was always in scrunchie - alot of shed hair in scrunchie. Gripe. Reflect that shedding may be do to seasonal changes. Gripe.

Report. I sprayed Maxwell House XXXStrong Brew (my measurements)yesterday, along hairline and nape and in the middle where i had breakage.

Report. This morning, upon styling hair, 3 hairs in scrunchie. Sprayed Coffee Tonic along hairline and nape before re-applying bun. Report. Tonight, after removing scrunchie, 1 teeny, tiny hair found in scrunchie. Report. Sprayed scalp vigorously with Coffee Tonic again tonight. Will co-wash tomorrow. Will use Maxwell House XXXStrong Coffee as DC and as Leave-In. Will use Coffee Tonic twice daily. Will have waistlength hair in one year.

End of Report.

Yaaaa!
Thanks and Blessings to you, OP!

Check this out...okay, some of it is probably redundant, but check the green....Can Coffee Help With Hair Loss?
11 June 2007

Europe’s renowned hair loss range, Alpecin, has been available on the continent since 1905 and is now available in the UK through professional hair salons only. Alpecin is a revolutionary, caffeine complex hair care range specially formulated to protect an individual for 24 hours and counteract premature hair loss.

With its caffeine-based ingredient combination, Alpecin has been proven to successfully keep the hair roots active, extend their growth phase longer than genetically predisposed, protect the hair roots against testosterone attack (testosterone shortens growth phases and the hair roots’ lifetime ends prematurely), counteract premature hair loss, increase hair root productivity and enhance the speed of hair growth. These Alpecin shampoos, treatments and tonics are equipped with a novel patented skin activator* and in addition, they are dermatologically matched to the requirements of the different scalp types:

• Normal or dry scalp: Active Shampoo A1 (rrp £9.95) – provides hair with a silky shine and is so gentle that it can be used daily, even on dry scalps.
• Oily scalp: Active Shampoo A2 (rrp £9.95). Improves the draining of sebum, protects from irritation, restores the scalp’s natural functions, activates the scalp’s metabolism and revitalises and conditions the scalp.
• Dandruff: Active Shampoo A3 and Anti-dandruff Treatment (rrp £9.95). Gently removes dandruff and counteracts the formation of new dandruff in a sustained fashion.
• Sensitive scalp: Sensitive Shampoo S1 (rrp £9.95). Confirmed by a recent long-term study to significantly decrease itchiness, eczema and redness after just 3 weeks. Contains no dyes, fragrances or preservatives.
For noticeably more hair: Caffeine-Shampoo C1 (rrp £11.95). A daily wash with C1 immediately provides the hair roots with the activating ingredient. Alpecin Caffeine works after being left on for as little as 120 seconds. If left on for longer, more caffeine will be absorbed into the scalp.[/U]
• After Shampoo Liquid (rrp £12.95) – suitable for all scalps and hair types. Strengthens the hair roots and should be massaged into scalp every morning and after every hair wash. Do not rinse out.

That's a great report Bronze! I have been doing rinses with black tea and I too have noticed a lot less hair in my comb. I am going to continue with these rinses every time I wash which is about 2x/week.:grin:

Isn't that awesome?!? As a real shedder, that is GOLDEN! I can keep the hairs on my head.?!. So how much would I pay for a product like this? A-LOT! It's available everywhere for what, $5 bucks a can! Girl, as I read this thread at lunch time, I made my brew in my classroom so it could be ready before i got home. I believe I even dabbed a bit on my forehead as I poured it in my empty water bottle....oh, yeah, I did do that....:look:
lol, its something bout the way you worded your report that had me crackin up Bronze!
Why thank you, me-T, I laughed as i wrote it...but it's actually how it just came out :rolleyes:. For anyone out there with shedding issues like me, after a day of use, this is really amazing. Seriously. The more i research, the more i am amazed....

if you do this twice a week, girl, i do believe your hair will be "Like, Whoa!"

You took the breakfast right off of my plate. This Coffee tonic coupled with my Hair Cocktail...I'm tellin' ya, Waistlength hair in a year, tops! And I'm transitioning! Did I mention, for like, pennies a week?

When you pray, you better expect answers, because if you believe you receive, you'll get them...I am truly getting the answer to my prayers, ..all these remedies just fallin' in my lap ~ if you hang in there long enough you'll see it come to pass. Thank you to everyone for sharing and researching and encouraging...

Hallelujah Hair Growing to You All!

Yep. A whole new take on breakfast. Next it will be pancake syrup. LOL. My mom knows I don't drink coffee so she asked why I bought it and I was like "I bought it for a friend". She actually wasn't supposed to see it. She came home earlier than I expected cuz I was I was not about to tell hair I was putting that in my hair, I wouldn't have heard the end of it.

I ordered this and it came in, I haven't used it yet. I'll start my first shampoo tonight. It's a protein shampoo so I don't know how often I'll be using it

I haven't washed it out. I just sprayed it in and left it in. I will do a rinse today - allowing the Coffee Tonic to remain in for maybe an hour with baggie, dc, and then, spritz a few challenged areas of my scalp - as a leave-in. I'm going to spritz morning and night, daily.

I'll be trying the daily spritzing too but let's be careful with possible caffeine overload.

who uses bacon fat and Lard. I wanna Know...and BUTTER? I got the Molasses and Honey for softening, and baking soda for clarifying...break it down for me. I got the eggs for protein, but what's up with the bacon fat and Lard. Hypocrite that I am, I am appalled! (As I mix together my coffee):spinning:
