That's awesome, den! I may have to try your concoction.
Thank-you!!!! you can't lose with this formula, plus its far cheaper to purchase the powder, and throw in some reasonably priced oils.

From what I have read it looks as if one could purchase MSM supplements and take that to promote healthy hair, skin and nails.

I don't mean to ask a silly question but, is the sulfur powder that you speak of the same as the the sulfur powder used to keep away chiggers(mite-like insects)? If so, we also use this type of powder in the warm weather seasons to keep away snakes (snakes detest the stuff!). I have been trying to do a search to see if there were different types of sulfur powders (i.e the one you speak here, the one used in chemistry classes,etc)or if they are the same. If all of these are the same then I have found big bags of this stuff at my local garden and seed store. I don't mean to sound silly :p but, I would just like some clarity. Thanks in advance!

I was looking in one of those stores b/c someone told me to check there, for sulfur. A Sales Associate asked how would I be using it? I told him that I was interested in mixing it w/ coconut oil, etc... and putting it on my scalp/hair. He told me NOT to do that b/c it had other chemicals added that would, more than likely, take my hair out and would be very harmful for my scalp!!! :eek: He said that people use it outdoors in gardens, lawns, etc... He scared the "you know what" out of me! :shocked: He showed me the big 5 lb. bag that cost about $15 and pointed out that is was NOT 100% sulfur.

I just had to mention that b/c I wouldn't want anyone to have the problems that he mentioned. :nono:

Oh nooo its a good thing he asked you then, the one i use is pure Sulphur by Baldwins. Didn't know all sulphurs aren't made the same, its a good thing i ordered from Baldwins. your best bet is to use MSM sulfur instead. Or order from Baldwins, i've been using this brand for over three moths and i have no problems.
here is pic of my hair after removing braids, the sulfur made my hair feel softer and stronger along with the internal msm.

GREAT PROGRESS den1, ever since i discovered robin's site, you've been my inspiration. now for the ladies that want to purchase sulphur, you can go on ebay (you can find ANYTHING on ebay now). they have a few sellers who have the pure sulphur or at least 99.5 or something such.

I'm so glad that he told me that! I think that it was mostly sulfur, but the other chemicals that were in that product is what would've caused the problems that he mentioned. It's definitely a safe bet to go w/ the pure 100% sulfur. :yep: I looked for some MSM, today, but it was all gone. I only saw Glucosamine w/ MSM. I'll try some other places.

Your hair looks great! :bouncy: It's pretty and thick! :love:

i dont know if this was answered but i hope its useful:
Sulphur dissolves in oil
MSM dissolved in water

Proceed mixing!!!

Thank-you, i never will stop using my supplements, my texture has also changed, it more a type 3 now, which i had when i was a little girl, somehow it changed to a type 4 over the years. I tried the HB brand too, but it wasn't that great. New horizions is the best because it is pure and distilled. Let me know how you progress with the new brand of msm.

Den, how do you make MTG? Sorry, if someone already asked this question.

Some of you may remember my distressing thread last year, regarding the condition of my newgrowth, which was seemingly dry and brittle, for a whole year. I could not be certain whether my hair was reacting due to a deficency, stress or scab hair. i also had increasing breakage/brittleness in the middle of my head. I tried deep conditioners and moisturizers and nothing could bring my hair back to a healthy condition. I must admitt that my diet/health condition had been poor for a long time and I failed to adequately supplement my diet. I began to search the forum for threads discussing successes of various vitamins on the hair/health. i came across msm posts, EFAs silica etc. Praise God, i took the advice on here I went out and purchased high quality vitamins, I also purchased sulfur powder and mixed it with oils to replace MTG within two weeks my newgrowth softened, i have no britteleness, i have less shedding/breakage my hair is growing faster and it is helping to imprive my health. I wanted to say thank you LHCF for all the support and advice, i couldn't have overcome this hurdle without you all.

Den 1, i hope you will continue to be happy with your beautiful, thick, wavy, soft, long hair ;)
You have really helped me out!
MSM is the truth...i was taking holland and baretts 1000 first(for 2months) i really like it.
I now have gone onto the one you reccomend which i think is good too, my hair texture has changed , it is now very soft! i cannot even figure out my hair type...maybe 4A?:look:

HHG

I use my empty 32OZ mtg bottle for good measure....i fill the bottom about half an inch full of sulfur powder and fill the remainder with natural oils. the best are jojoba oil, olive oil, coconut oil, right to the top of the bottle. give it a good shake leave it for a day or two so that it can dissolve a bit, then its ready to be applied to the scalp or hair.

Thanks girl for leaving those comments in my album, good luck with your new vits, keep in touch. den1
 
I'm about to join you on making your own MSM oil.
I can't take the stench of this MTG. I was in church today paranoid everytime someone looked in my direction I was scurred they were smelling my hair.:lachen:
den1 said:
Thank-you!! girl you know want to try it, go on give into your "PJ spidey sense itching" lol it truly does work. You know me, when somethings not right i will post and moan to everyone about it. My hair was sooo brittle and rough, now through my sulfur oil concoction and persisting with MSM i can enjoy my hair again, i'm no longer miserable i am so happy i can stop feeling my hair even my texturized ends feels better. My advice is do a search online to find a natural products company, which sells herbs, oils just organic products and they should sell the yellow sulphur powder (external use only)not the white MSM sulfur for (external/internal). Purchase some natural oils to go along with the mix, i prefer coconut oil, jojoba oil, olive oil, you can also add vitamin E and/or EOs like rosemary, peppermint. When you get your ingredients together send me a PM and i'll give you the details of how to mix it, i also used a blender for mine to crush the powder down a little because it can clump to togetther a bit. good luck

Congrats, Den. :dance7:

Your beautiful hair has been one of my hairspirations since I joined LHCF. Is your signature right? Do you take 20,000mg/day of MSM.
