    Default MN Users-Generic or Namebrand?!

    I just started the MN thingy and I am curious and i'm sure others are concerning generic or namebrand as far as results are concerned, especially if you're trying to save money like me so... Should I use generic or namebrand and what are you using? A sista is trying to save some money so I thought i'd ask. Thanks so much ladies

    I use the generic one- it's the same amount of MN in either one (2%).

    I think I have gotten great results, no damage or complaints.

    The only thing I will change is instead of mixing MN w/VG, I will use MN/castor oil instead.
    I do 3 weeks on (b4 retouch)-3 weeks off (after retouch).

    It is now a staple.

    I've had great results!

    The MN fights my itchy scalp, the VG provides moisture, and I have had some growth in the 2.5 months I started using it(see pix @ bottom).

    I want to see how much growth I get with MN by the time I come stateside in the summer!

    This was a wonderful LHCF discovery for me.

    I use generic, family dollar brand. MN is MN, and if you can get away with 5 dollars a tube versus 11, I choose the 5. I use it every other day in a combo with hydrocortisone and capazin and I love it.
