I've completed my 7 days of mhm and this is a side by side comparison of my hair in a twist out pre and post treatment. My hair is very low density and I'm not so sure about the porosity, but I'm thinking it's normal to low, 4a. Moisturizer used to leave my hair feeling stiff the following day, but this time my hair was very soft and kinda bouncy. I am a BELIEVER!!! (and will continue on with treatment until i die!) http://s279.photobucket.com/user/Marigold97/media/PreandPostmhmTO.png.html ETA Post is on the left, pre is on the right. I hope ya'll could tell.
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
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.
I got my DC in. I plan on doing a wng 2morrow. I'm gonna see how long it takes me to do the wng. If it takes less than an hour, i may be able to do this method during the week.
For the wng, I'm going to use eco styler in the clear jar, cause the flaxseed gel is just so, so. It's not bad, but it's just something i don't like, plus i can't seem to get the consistency right.
Thank gawd it's not just me. I was beginning think I was kinda special.
Yeah, I'm going back to my xtreme gel, glycerine and all.
Is anyone doing this APL or longer?
Do you mean has anyone gotten past apl with this method? Or just do we currently have the length? I'm waist length, 3c/4a.Is anyone doing this APL or longer?

I'm aplish. I started last night but feel a asleep with the clay still in my hair. Didn't do the gel step bc I fell asleep before I made the flax seed but my twist feel coated and a bit hard. Anyone else ever hard their hair feel like this?
One question that I have is how do you tell what percentage hydration your hair is at? How do you know when it reaches "max" hydration?
** Also, thanks to everyone who replied about the length of their hair.
Maybe I did something wrong on Saturday. My hair felt good all the way until I rinsed out the clay that's when it felt coated
