December '08 OCT/Mega-Tek Challenge-Wrap up

thaidreams · Dec 20, 2008

Hi All~

I'm so excited about the progress Meg/Oct have made on my hair over the past 3 months. These products really work at adding thickness, shine, and length! As you can see from my siggy below, my hair was in pretty bad shape in August of 08. My ends were uneven and suffered from anorexia. Thanks ladies for all of your support and knowledge sharing!

I just measured my MT'd hair and I've grown 5 inches in almost 6 months. I'm VERY pleased with my progress with this product. For the most part I've been consistent, but I wore 2 sew-in weaves during this time and halted MT use while they were in. Never mind pleased, I'm ecstatic about the growth!

That's AMAZING! I am more tempted than ever to get myself some MegaTek now! :grin:

Wow, nice growth

I'm so impressed with these results! I can hardly wait to see Jamaica Lovely's results. Count down to her reveal....4 days.

jamaicalovely · Dec 20, 2008

^ Aww....you're sweet.

I can't wait either girls. I'm getting my hair pressed on Wed; I haven't had my hair straight since May. I'm in for a big surprise.

RegaLady · Dec 20, 2008

I'll post mine on Feb 1st! That will be 1year since I was here and 8 months since I used MT! Hope to make it that long!

Here is my first ever post of any of my hair pictures. I know my hair is severely uneven. I don't attempt to wear it "down", only in buns, or extreme curls. The first picture is from Sept. 27 2008 before I started OCT regimen. The last is from today, this morning Dec. 20th 2008. I have some in between pictures, but I think these two comparison shots give a pretty good effect. I have very slow growing hair and it has never been long - never even SL.

Why did you stop while in a weave? I have been using MT while in a sew in with no problems.

This makes for a very interesting and intriguing read. The little research I've done reveals megatek is a product used for horses. What exactly is it's active ingredient/s? I would LOVE to grow an average of 1 inch/month.

****off to get researching some more.........

Mostly laziness. :lol:

It was also kinda hard to get to my scalp through the weave so I discontinued use for awhile. How do you get to your scalp?

jamaicalovely · Dec 21, 2008

^ just fine. Was it cuz of your braid pattern? I heard ladies had problems with application when they had the vertical braid pattern.

jamaicalovely · Dec 21, 2008

Oh, before I get in trouble with some folks on here....I posted a thread for my big reveal at http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=318867.

The line was getting long waiting, so I had to get a few of you girls organized before yall start fighting with the lawn chairs. < If you visit my fotki often, you would get that joke. :lachen:

Anyways...

Before some people (ain't saying no names :nono:

) start threatening me :bat:

....I wanted to let you guys know that I also posted a reveal preview video on that thread for your watching pleasure while you wait til Thursday.

Toodles.

i jst got MT and tried it direct today on my scalp. How long should I massag my scalp? My hair is vry fine and thin, I need major increase in thickness but want length also. I am trying to go natural,havn't relaxed since 9/26/08 but now it tangles so much when I wash it that I am afraid to co-wash more than once a week. I will buy some garlic pills and use alter ego garlic treatment once a week so maybe that will stop the shedding. Not sure if I should buy the OCT or just stick with MT since I don't want to waste money.

I massage for about 5mins just to make sure its evenly on my scalp. I stil massage further when rinsing before co-wash.
If you want the thickness stick with mt, length follows after. Plus it is cheaper. If you still want to try oct go for it. HTH.
