    Default Please share any M.N.(NeoAF), results here~

    Inquiry minds would like to know if anyone has any marked progress with the M.N.
    I know we already have a thread on Miconazole Nitrate but it's so long and sorta a starter thread about trying it out. This thread is just for results if any.
    As far as myself, I'm not quite sure yet if I notice a change in growth rate.
    Thanks everyone. I'm sure we'd all like to know what's going on with it.

    Great thread! The other one was getting a bit long. Well it will be a full, consecutive week of use for me come this Friday.... so at this point it's too early for me to report any major changes. But I will for sure keep ya'all posted!

    Come on M.N. users!!!!! Let's hear about your wonderful progress, it's so motivational!!!!

    Oh, and fyi, I am using my M.N. straight in the morning..... and continuing to MTG at night.

    How often are other folks M.N.'ing? And what, if anything, are you mixing it with? VWVixen posted about her plan to M.N. in 4 week cycles, and then break for 2 weeks, and I think this is a great idea. I plan to do the same.

    Hi KiniKakes,
    I'm glad to see you check in here.
    I think 4 week cycles sounds good. I'll try that too.

    Checking in!!

    The growth seems to be steady. I braided my hair up over the weekend so I'd keep from fussing with it, I'll take it down tonight for tomorrow's progress pics. I've got 7 more days to go before I take my 2 week break.

    Great thread idea!

    What kind of braids did you do....? And are you still able to apply the m.n. evenly throughout with the braids?

    They're just cornrows, I'm wearing quickweaves right now. The new growth (especially in the back) is waring with the relaxed hair. The cornrows are small enough that I'm not too concerned about even distribution.

    Because the hair is covered during the day, I do attempt to massage it in a little and I'm not concerned with the braids looking 'frayed'.

    I guess if one were concerned about distribution, they could mix it with a light consistency oil.

    Yesterday, was the end of my 30 day MN challenge. I have a little more than 3/4 of an inch! Even tho I was only consistent the first 2 weeks or so. It a keeper for me. I've just got to get better at daily use. Right now I might remember twice/week.

    ETA: Just took this...

    I think I gained an inch and I have been using it right around 30 days or less and I have only been consistent using it every day for the last week and a half.

    I have only been using M.N. with Capsazin for about a week 1 1/2 and I can tell it's working. I'm in braids and I bag every night. 1. I can see my hair pushing out of the braids like weeds growing 2. When I take the baggie off in the morning my hair is very visible in the braids, in the front sides and back like the hairs are being pushed out. It's weird, does anyone else get this?
    Well the knots where my braids start are about 1/2 inch down so there's my proof. I am planning to take these out on June 1, so I'm getting another inch between M.N and MTG.

    Well I have breakage in the back about two inches long from a color disaster. I'm a natural 4a and I just started applying this every other day this week. I can give an update in about 2-4 weeks. I'll use my breakage area to judge growth.

    Ok, so I went to Wal-Mart yesterday and pciked up a tube just to see what all the hype was about. The tube was very small for $5 ( i guess cause of its intended use,lol). I can't imagine getting 2 MAYBE 3 applications out of this tube. My plan was to use it every other day. How often our you ladies using it and are you finding a better deal for this lil tube?

    Im in box braids with crownrows in the front, so application to the scalp is easy but good lawd! I'll be buying 5-6 tubes to do the every other day thing for a month. Maybe I'll stick to whats already working for and that my stinky MTG! lol any advise?

    Some people are buying the store brands or buying off brands from Ebay.

    It seems that applying every other day will still give good results.

    I think the main reason MN appealed to me, was the fact that I did not have to worry about an odor or oily hair.

    I totally agree.
    Not to be mean or anything, it's just that the other thread is more appropriate for that as jwhitley6 says.
    We are summing up those who have results please.
    Thanx

    I decided I'd only use it in the back of my head and nape area for about a month and see what my results are before I use it on my entire head. I grease my scalp with it every evening. I could be hallucinating, but it seems like I have about 1/4" in less than 2 weeks! I'm about 7 weeks post, so I won't be able to really tell until I get another relaxer.

    My broken off nape area is filling in quite well. I have enough to actually put in braids back there. I relaxed my hair a little over a week ago and my newgrowth is very visible. I can't slick back as easily. I have this patch of hair on my crown that is constantly sticking up because the newgrowth is coming in so quickly. I usually don't see this month newgrowth for about 3 weeks after my relaxer.

    I usually get anywhere between 1/4 to 1/2 inch per month without the M.N. Last month was great. I got around 3/4 of an inch or more from 3 weeks of use. I hope to get at least an inch this month.
