They come in all shapes, sizes and consistencies so please, mention whatever you are using in scalp to promote growth that is kind to straight, texlaxed or relaxed hair styles -- i.e., won't weight it down, create that infamous "piecey" look. (I love oils, butters, etc. and use them when my hair is worn out, natural and curly but when flat-ironed -- no-bueno, too greasy for me.) There were a lot of endorsements for Liquid Gold Green Magic in another thread. Additional co-signers of that product as well as users of other products are all welcomed.
I hope this is useful -- another member recommended something that I like that ... was already in my stash! (Love this forum; hopefully this thread will provide a resource that others can use when researching desired results and information re use.)
So, please:
(1) provide name(s) of product
AND
describe your:
(2) results,
(3) method of application,
(4) frequency of use,
and, if you have time (and the inclination
),
(5) feel free to copy and paste a list of ingredients,
(6) Next on your wish-list or in stash,
(7) Nixed -- warnings re product that did more harm than good or yielded undesired results.
Here's mine:
(1) Alter Ego Cren (liquid), Millcreek Biotene Serum (thanks charmtreese)
(2) AEC - scalp feels more alive, "twiggle," and thin hairline is slowly filing in but scalp still feels tight; MBS - too early to tell but hair feels softer
(3) I put anything and everything in roots-only dye applicator bottles (available at Sally's, sometimes at Walmart) - separate one for liquids, versus creams, etc.
(4) Every other night
(6) Liquid Gold Green Magic (awaiting order!) and may try Aloe Gel
(7) Megatek - great when I was doing wash and goes but I personally cannot use without washing out within a day -- too much shedding; Nexxus Biotin Cream - leaves white flakes all over.
