Anyone think you can do this method successfully with mini twists in?
Honestly, I don't think so. Unless you skip the clay step; but I think that step is crutial

For all the youtuber's, RachelCPR did a quick video on MHM, answering some of the questions that she's been getting and giving a bit of advice
I wonder if Glamfun has considered following this regimen. She really struggles with her hair.
I believe Glamfun went back to relaxing, its shame that she couldn't have tried this option, it could have really helped her.
Actually she is natural now....she recently bc'ed again
[USER=40407 said:Tiffanita[/USER];20592057]I just can't get this to work for me! I gave up after day 4...I did a CLT the first day and used Kinky Curly conditioner and gel, and bentonite clay. My hair curled and stretched like never before with the clay in, but after I rinsed it out, my hair shrunk up again. Pinke Cube said I'm not applying the leave-in and gel properly, but I apply in very small sections on every strand. My hair dried (after a million hours) into a Florida Evans fro and didn't feel that moist. Any suggestions? Should I try different products? I'm definitely low porosity 4b/c. I feel terrible because it seems like I'm the only one to have this method not work!
Are there any posts about ACV being a cuticle sealant and BS being a cuticle lifter? I wouldn't think the two are interchangeable...I was always under the impression that ACV sealed the cuticles. Is this incorrect?
It doesn't mean you are doing anything wrong. If you are a low po 4b/c, it could take you a couple of months before your hair hydrates enough not to shrink into a fro. I think sometimes we look at people with quick results and think that our hair will do what their hair does. It isn't that way for a lot of people, they just aren't posting. 4 days isn't enough to say how your hair is going to do long term. For days 2, 3, 4 what did you use for steps 1 and 2? If you wanted to continue you may have to style your hair in something other than a WNG until your hair hydrates.

[USER=40407 said:Tiffanita[/USER];20592283]Thanks FaithVA for the response and encouragement to keep at it. I used KCKT and KCCC for the other days too. By days 3 and 4, I knew I would end up with a dry afro, so I did a twistout...but it didn't come out as good as my twistouts with other non-MHM approved products. What products have you been using?
My hair hates aloe vera...maybe I should try a gel that doesn't have it so high on the ingredient list?
Did you use KCKT for steps 1 and 2? Did you use baking soda or ACV? Are you using KCKT and the KCCC diluted or undiluted for step 4 and 5? I only use KCKT and KCCC for steps 4 and 5. You can try switching products but I find that people that switch early on return to the original products after they have mastered the method a bit more. You can try adding some oil after the KCKT.
I used KCKT for steps 1 & 2. What do you use? I used baking soda and I tried the KCCC straight and diluted. I also tried aloe Vera gel (fail). I do think oil might help- I need something to weigh my hair down some...
You might have to tweak some things as I did:I used KCKT for steps 1 & 2. What do you use? I used baking soda and I tried the KCCC straight and diluted. I also tried aloe Vera gel (fail). I do think oil might help- I need something to weigh my hair down some...
I missed that, I used to follow her but I dropped her channel. I'm glad she's giving it another go, I hope she joins us especially since this method was birthed around her struggle.
I think im going to do this eveb though I have ramen noodle hair already lol.....just my very front and sides need work
Also, I have to figure out how to still incorporate the aryuvedic powders ive come to love with this.
And question. ...can I skip the cherry lola treatment entirely.....sry if its been asked already
