^^^ Sorry to but in but have you tried Spatone which is iron infused water? That was the onlyiron supplement that bought my iron levels back to normal.

Sunrise yes i tried that whilst i was preg - the iron content is very high and caused me the same problems.

Well, i have not been out since i washed and twisted my hair yesterday so it has been underwraps.
This evening I sprayed my water/keracare leave-in/rosemary oil/lavender oil spritz onto my hair and sealed with my Castor Oil Mix. At last i have found a combo that my hair loves, it dries so shiney and moisturised.

Sounds (and smells) lovely! Castor oil is the real deal!

@NJoy

Do you wear 6 braids or cornrows as your ps?

My Friend

Yeah, these would be your basic Celie braids. I wish I COULD cornrow my own hair but, . I can do other's but not my own.

 

[QueenAmaka]

Does anyone have a hair vitamin that they would recommend?

I think I'm going to start using Ovation Cell Therapy conditioner again. I don't think I saw any growth, but I loved the way it made my hair feel.

ETA: oh and here are my starting pics finally

I've been using my Beauty-Vites for about 2 weeks and although my hair is still in cornrows I can tell that I am getting growth because my hair ALL OVER is getting longer.

How's everyone getting on? Are you enjoying having control over your hair?

Tonight I massaged my scalp with my rosemary oil/distilled water mix and coffee oil. I also sealed my ends.

Ok ladies, thanks for accepting me on this forum. I had to cut about an inch and a half off my hair due to severe damages. The brings my current length to ear length at the sides, eyebrow in front and then neck length from the back. Below is my regimen

Drink at least 2 litres of water a day
Take 2 nioxin tablets a day
10000 mcg of Biotin a day
2 tablets of hairfinity a day
3000 mg of MSM
Take a multivitamin everyday
Apply MTG mixed with MN every evening and baggy overnight
Apply WGHO mixed with Virgin Hair Fertilizer every morning
Co wash and deep condition two times a week
Moisturise and seal every day

Am also going to increase my protein consumption to 120g per day

Thats my reggie for now but am seriously thinking of adding fish oil. What do you ladies think? Is that a good combination?

will post my begging pic this evening.

 

[g.lo]

2l of water down, herbal tees, green smoothie! will cowash later. !

 

[NJoy]

Warm oil massage and baggy last night. Mixing up a batch of sulfur oil to start using tomorrow.

Welcome hun! I'm just hoping your not taking too much internally as vitamins could be overlapping. Have you considered asking your general practitioner to review the combination of products?

I like these ideas:
"Apply MTG mixed with MN every evening and baggy overnight
Apply WGHO mixed with Virgin Hair Fertilizer every morning
Co wash and deep condition two times a week
Moisturise and seal every day" and the protein/water

When you say fish oil do you mean internally?

Bought some Rusk honey and grapefruit leave-in conditioner spray for my braids to keep them moisturized and conditioned. I don't like traditional braid spray cuz it makes my hair/scalp feel greasy. I like having something water-based on my scalp.

That sounds exotic, yum

[addaboutmyhair]

I'm so excited. I'm doing 90% of the list already. This is the push I need.
My current length is barely APL. I'm texlaxed and touch up twice a year. I alternate bunning and weaves. And I just cured a breakage issue using lhcf.

Happy New Year!

Krill is better if you wanna do something like a fish oil.
