Ive been using SULU daily since 31st March'08. I have gotten growth but not as much as when I was using MN.

Sulu-Seems to give hair strength,Promotes dryness, smells similar to the original MTG,Good Growth

*Remember to increase moisture if using SULU especially

BT-isntdrying, smell isnt overwhelming, Good Growth

I got about the same growth with both products. If you really want growth try Biotin 5mg & use BT or Sulu OR MN mixed with EITHER


HTH
 
oooooooh Natural Lady......

I relaxed my hair two weeks ago and started in on the BT about two days after that. When I washed my hair today I noticed 1/4 to 1/2 inch new growth (depending on which part of my hair we're talking about). This stuff is SERIOUS!!!!

:grin::yep::yawn:
 
I hated the smell of MTG and It left my hair stinky, stringy and oily.

I love, love, love Boundless Tresses and don't want to try anything else. I use the Revitalizing Hair Balm on my scalp and lightly on my ends. LOVE IT! I'm off to buy another backup jar for when I travel.
 
I haven't used Mega Tek but I am using the BT and I love it! At first I thought I would have a problem with it because Sulfur-8 used to irritate my scalp for some reason... maybe it was the petrolatum and mineral oil in it? But the BT doesn't irritate and as a matter of fact it really has helped my scalp a lot. I was suffering terribly with eczema of my scalp but now since using the BT the itchies and flaking are a thing of the past! I've had a lot of growth too ... so much growth that I've had to get a full sew-in weave to manage the new growth!

P.S. - I bought the scented one and it smells pretty good to me!

mistee I think the question is about MTG - Mane and Tail Groom and not about MT which is Mega Tek:yep:.

Since my bottle of MTG is gone (I got growth but didn't really do a thorough before/after dealy), I ordered BT last week! Ya'll got my PJ tendencies activated.

Been using for a week now. We apply nightly, cover with a plastic cap, and a silk wrap to keep plastic cap in place. No smell by others, no messed up sheets, and aftrer one week, about a 1/2 inch of new growth on my daughter! I had to re-braid her hair from Sat to Wed! The braids had loosened that much! I can not tell on me, my hair is naturally curly so I just can't say. The smell is not as strong in the morning perhaps because it has been absorbed into scalp for the most part. I do not use with anything else, except when braiding (cornrows) my daughters hair, I use groganics hair grease to help keep braids together, my daughters hair is also very soft and naturally curly. I attribute the new growth to Sulu Max Gro, as it is the only thing we have done differently. I hope this helps. Also, my daughter takes 1000mg MSM per day for eczema, and she has been doing so for a while now. That did change her hair initially, growth and brilliance! Just trying to give you our whole routine that may be affecting this accelerated growth.:yep:

I am back. OMG! I just got finished oiling my daughters scalp for the night, she had already fallen asleep. So, I decided to do her personal grooming, clipping finger and toenails. I usually try to do this pretty regularly. Well to my amazement, when I pulled my daughter's left hand from under her face to clip her fingernails, the nails on this hand were significantly longer than on her right hand! How wild is that! Talk about growth:yep: Maybe she gets her hand under the cap to scratch or something who knows, but wow!
 
I am game to try this, oh PJ that I am. Plus, if it's supporting one of the women membren, heeey, what other excuse do I need. Oh, I'm talking about the BT, by the way. Just wish I could see/order here, server won't allow me to see it.
 
I gotta vote for mtg. My temples were not growing at all right after my bc in early January. It was about 2 inches shorter than the rest of my hair. I ordered mtg and now you cannot tell at all. I do have sensitive skin though and I could tell the mtg was irritating it a little. I stopped taking it for awhile...about 2 months and I could tell that the growth definitely slowed. I started using it again this past month and Ive almost gotten an inch this path month :yawn: so Im back on the mtg bandwagon, the smell doesn't bother me that much either. I do put a towel around my neck when I apply it though cause if you let it seep and stay on your neck it really can be irritating. I agree that the cheaper price is better for me, but it is a little strong. I use it about 2 times a week

so after reading a few threads on BT and having heard about it for quite awhile now i decided to order some since i lost my bottle of MTG after moving. but i went on the website and it said the 8oz bottle is $15 and not the $8 that a few ppl have said it was. am i missing something here? do lhcf members get a discount? or did she just up the prices?
 
MTG is megatek, or something else?
I purchased boundless tresses but it didn't come with any directions. It's rather oily but people are saying MTG smells and is oily so I am thinking everyone is talking about something else because megatek doesn't really smell and it's conditioner that you wash out, right? Help!
 
MTG= Mane Tale Groom The original from shapley's (oil)
BT= Boundless Tresses
MT= Mega-tek Cell Rebuilder

Personally I used MTG with great results, in less than a month it helped fill in my edges completely and the smell, hey no worst than the sulpher 8, glovers or black tar mom and granny put on me as a kid. LOLOL So I could hang for the price.

Do to the economy maybe she went up on her prices.
 
OMG!!! OMG!!! :woot: The Revitalizing Hair Balm is the STUFF!!!! :woot: I just re-upped and ordered two more jars. :) I love the act of "oiling" my scalp with this product 'bout 3 or 4x's per week. My hair is in such good condition...my growth is consistent. I am sold on this product!! It has grown my edges and my nape back. And its the only thing I will be using on my scalp going forward. I ordered a jar for my daughter who is going off to college in a few days. :)

Good Stuff!!

Nope. I ordered my first jar in june. Took about 2 or 3 weeks. I ordered my next two jars on 8/10/09, got it on 8/20. I had an issue with the shipping which required customer service, sent them an email, got IMMEDIATE resolution!! :clap:

This balm is a keeper for me. I got this weird idea that she's gonna run out of product....LOL!!:lachen: Don't know why....I just feel like ordering another 2 or 3 jars. Gosh, I don't know if its the pj-ism or the pack-rat mentality...LOL!!!:lachen:
 
Yes, the revitalizing hair balm and the boundless tresses oil are the same thing. The only difference is that the balm is a solid so you can part and apply to the scalp if you don't want the liquid oil. Hope this helps. :yep:
 
I never used the BT , and I just purchased MTG at the tack store today, I was going for my regular MT and asked the lady about MTG . She pointed to it and stated that a lot of people come in and buy this produc, so I got two bottle for 26 dollars for me and a family member. I am so glad I can purcahsed my product local and saved on shipping. So I keep you guys posted on my results
 
I use BT in the creme form. It works well however the amount given may not be worth the money

ETA: Its a keeper. yes 3 mtnhs later I am updating this LOL. I just mix it with oils during each application to stretch the product.
