I'm using the Extra Dark JBCO in a challenge over on Hairlicous.
The smell is even more smokey and burnt than the original.
I noticed my hair was thickening in just 3 days of doing the Ultimate Level Challenge (Scalp massage with it, add the deep conditioners, add to creams and leave ins and seal the ends with it)
What I don't like about it is the pimples it's causing. About 5 other girls have complained about getting painful acne after using it. I have to baggy mair hair each night and wash my pilliow cases (satin) every other day. I thne have to make sure my hair doesn't touch my face and that I wash my hands a lot thoughout the day.
Also since the smell is so powerful I had purchased KBB Hair Milk in Cranberry Cocktail and that masks the smell. I added the Hail Milk, ED JBCO and some Rose Water to a spray bottle and I use it as a leave in now. That works the best for me and I will be using it as my leave in even after the challenge.
I have notice the thickness but haven't noticed growth yet. We shall see this July
