What's your hair progress since using 'MTG'?

[Trea]

I haven't read about anyone's progress lately, since they've been using MTG. Jus' being curious...

I've been using it for 3 days now. I will be starting my (mtg) hair photo album soon, so be watching out for it.

This stuff is serious! WoW!

What is MTG?

 

[benosayi]

I have been using it for 3 days too. I made a butter with it and used aloe vera and cloves essential oil. I have had a baggie on my hair for 3 days. I am not sure if this is the way to go. My hair feels soft but I don't know if it is safe to have my hair under a bag that long. I can not smell the MGT at all now. I have the summer off so it is not such a hardship to do, I could also put a phony ponie on if I really needed to get dressed up.

Mtg is mane, tail growth, if you do a search on it you will find lots of information.

I just started using MTG on July 7th and I am anxious to see if I get the same great results some of you ladies are getting. I'm getting fresh cornrows done on Monday by my friend's cousin and I will use MTG every day for 2 months to see if I get any results. I will be having pics in my album in a few days to follow the progress.

I had great results within 2 weeks. I had cornrows and I got about 1.5 inches before I took them out. The new growth was so much that I coudnt keep them in for 1 month as I had planned.

Now I have twists and have had them for 2 weeks. I have 1 inch so far in certain areas and .5 inches elsewhere. MY texture is also more relaxed.

Just remember that everything that you do for your hair orally or topically plays a great role. My personal goal is to retain 2 inches per month....at the very least 1.5 which I am definately getting now.

Hi Diane71...I think using MTG everyday for 2 months is tooooo much.
Directions say: Apply once per week
they also say: Using MTG more than recommended(1x per week), could result in adverse reaction hwell:
So please think about that...

My plans are to apply it 1x per week after every wash for 1 month.

So far(4 days), My hair have soooooo much new growth.

how do you use your MTG

 

[Diane71]

Hey Trea, 2 months everyday is too much you think? What if I mix it in with a leave-in or something to dilute it, would that make it okay to use for two full months? I'm getting cornrows on Monday and I would really like to use it consistently to see what results I get.

 

[DangerouslyShy]

I dilute my MTG with shea butter oil, meadowfoam oil, and jojoba oil...

Usually I use it everyother day I have not had a problem....but I have had very good progress with it.

 

[asummertyme]

i mixed mine with some olive oil..and some rose otto essen. oil, and they smell is ok, its still there but not unbearable at all...i use mine 1-2x a week..thats about it..i have only been using it for a short time..so we shall see...

Yes, 2 months 'EVERYDAY' is too much (my opinion),because they specify 1x per week anything more could result in an adverse reaction... Now, I don't think it would be as bad if it was diluted
but, I'd probably apply it 5 days out of 7 if this was the case.

(*This is my personal opinion, ONLY!)

 

[dontspeakdefeat]

I used mine 3 times per week for 4 weeks with great results. I put a little pic in my album to show. Please excuse the oily hair.

 

[Lucia]

I started using MTG mixed with oil to cut the smell, but now I use it straight with a baggie , 2-3x/week. It's been 2 weeks and I already have some growth, and it appears to be straighter and thicker. I haven't had any reactions.
The site and brochure said that it grew a tail 3 inches in about a month we'll see.

 

[cocopuff]

I was using my MTG for about 1 month. I was wearing extensions at the time and was applying the MTG once a day or once every other day. I used up my trial size bottle of MTG and I gained about 1.0 inch of growth in addition to the growth that I usually get, so I ended up with 2.0 to 3.0 inches of growth all over. I mixed my MTG with rosemary oil and Asha's Omega Oil.

I apply 2-3 times a week. I am not having any problems and my hair groth is stuppendous!

 

[Annakei]

I have a concoction mixed with alot of essential oils, Biotin and Surge...

 

[SerenityBreeze]

I have been trying to resist buying MTG..but everyone is experiencing crazy growth..I think I will order today.

 

[DDTexlaxed]

I use my mtg everyday and I love it! I am almost natural....I still have some relaxed pieces mixed thru my whole head. Anyhow, I stopped relaxing when I began using mtg. For me, the relaxer doesn't last long, only 1 month. So now, being natural seems doable. All I have to say is mtg works! Don't expect miracles- yr hair won't grow 1" in 3 days.

 

[ravensunshine]

OK Ladies,
I succumed to the temptation! I bought MTG last night online! I will be jioning in on the MTG challenge and look forward to learning different ways of applying and masking the smell.
Good luck and happy growing to us all!

 

[vikkisecret]

I have started using MTG one week ago. I haven't noticed any growth yet but I will check back in a couple weeks from now.

I made my own spray bottle concoction of surge,mtg, and coconut oil. Recently I also added peppermint and sweet orange essential oils to it. The smell is workin my last nerve!! I hope it's all worth it.

 

[lillian743]

I havnt been using MTG, in almost 2 months because of the smell and the bad build up I get. But I have found that using polysorbate 80 helps with the build up.. I'm going to start using it again later on this year..

 

[Luvableboo]

Well I relaxed my hair on June 10... all was good.... silky and all watched for new growth like a hawk. About a week later I noticed that my hair was not as easy to slick back in ponytail. on goes the story...
Now a month laterish July 12 new growth in middle of head is an 3/4 inch to over inch in places. Hair line and nape lookin Wolfish
Supposed to relax in middle or end of August (12 week mark) but may have to cut short at August 3 (8 week )......


Is S-curl no drip that good for slicking and moisturizing thick 4b hair while stretching and other wise.????? may try it.....


Need order a new bottle of MTG... 12 ounces left....

 

[AudraChanell]

What is MTG??

 

[Eiano]

I took a picture the first day I started using it. June 28th I believe? I Will post a pic on July 28th to show the progress.

 

[Luvableboo]

What is MTG??

It is Shapley's Mane Tail and Groom...
It is a horse product that was originally made for human use.. Sulphur based works like a demon . Look through the threads for MTG and judge for your self.......

 

[tammiematthews]

Hi Ladies,
I've been journaling my MTG progress on the Forum. U can check out my journal entries and my pics (under photo galleries) there is no password for either. Just search under my member name (tammiematthews) I hope that helps. I've been trying to be consistant. I am noticing some minor changes, but I haven't seen anything major yet. I'll have cornrolls for my family vacation, so I'll see if that'll help .

 

[sprungonhairboards]

I think using everyday is way to much also, and wasteful. Why would you? I gurantee you won't get any faster growth using it every day than you would using it twice a week. More is not always better. Taking 3 vitamins a day isn't going to make you ANY healthier than taking 1. That said, the stuff works! I've had amazing growth.

 

[OnPoint]

I got mine yesterday and it smells JUST LIKE Frenchee's. I was expecting to be knocked out at the first whiff, but I wasn't. It makes me more comfortable now. I also like the fact that it says non-toxic. I will start charting my progress starting this week. I will let y'all know!

 

[Naijaqueen]

I use it every 2-3days and its been like 2inches in the past month!!

 

[HairQueen]

I've been using it for five days and I am like my hair has seriously thickened up in the last 5 days! I've been using it every night but will switch to every other night soon. I will post my progress in another week.
