What is the strangest thing you’ve ever tried for hair growth? In the beginning of my hair journey I was willing to try pretty much anything if it meant added growth. My roommate would give me the side eye every time I came home with a new product.
Maybe it’s because I would gush over how this one was “proven to work”. It also could have been because I never stuck to just one and she saw the error in my product junkie ways.
Now, in my wiser hair junkie days, I try to reign back the inner product junkie in favor or a more structured hair regimen. However, every now and then I get tempted by the more “out there” hair tips like the inversion method (which I am currently trying) or adding sulfur* into an oil for your scalp (which I have tried).
In my zest for going to extremes I have, however, come across one method that I have not quite talked myself into: the anti-fungal cream miconazole nitrate* (MN). If that name looks familiar to you, it is because you have probably seen it at your local pharmacy, most popularly, in the form of Monistat.
Before you totally write it off keep in mind that it is has been used by plenty of women for hair growth purposes and seems to be perfectly safe. With that being said, the hump to get over is the fact that it is indeed an anti-fungal product that cures issues like ringworm, jock itch and, yes, even vaginal yeast infections.
How Does It Work?
Now if you can get over the fact that MN is in fact vajajay cream, the science behind why it could work to boost your hair growth lies in the active ingredient miconazole nitrate*. Basically, it kills the hair fungus that would normally cause hair loss resulting in added growth.
It’s structure is also similar to another anti-fungal agent called ketoconazole which has been shown to block dihydrotestosterone (DHT) the hormone responsible for pattern baldness in both men and women.
The idea is that, just as this anti-fungal cream works to rid fungus in other places of your body it works on the scalp too. It is also said to bring more oxygen to the scalp which helps accelerate the hair growth process.
Jodii Sweetness Bae says
You put this in your hair?
Wendee Hudson says
I read it has side effects…. i read it makes u lose hair once u stop using it.
Kela 'Alek' Tillery says
The reason you lose hair is because when you’re using it, your hair grows at such a fast pace that it doesn’t shed the 150 strands a day that it should. So when you stop using it, your hair just sheds what it was supposed to, but you’ll still see growth. : )
Vicki Steverson says
Heck NO!!!
Mimi says
there’s a cream called Daktarin here in the UK with 2% miconazole Nitrate in it.
“Daktarin 2% Cream is for fungal and associated bacterial infections of the skin and nails. Contains the active ingredient Miconazole Nitrate 2% w/w.”
the above is the desription, lets get logical, the miconazole nitrate is an anti-fugal cream, it eliminates fungus, you can get fungus anywhere on your skin, and by the above description, the chemical definitely isn’t only for private parts., it acts on fungus on any part of our skin. i think people are only being weird because of monistats name. i gues theyd be happy to use the daktarin version as it clearly says skin and nails.
courtney says
But that not the only chemical in the cream….only god knows what other harmful things could be in there.
Shameka Chambers says
I already use it. My growed half am inch in a week. A full inch in a week in a half
Panama M America says
congrats!
Nyokabbz Mamake Ian says

Cynthia D. Graham says
Sorry…NO!
Syrinthia Haskell says
people say it work bu t im scared to use it
Shanequa Figgins says
Naw I ain’t gone do it
Bine Dupoux says
Yep. N no hair loss after. The only thing is u can’t do it too often.
Tracy Thomas says
Oh no not that serious for hair growth
Dionne Smith says
Major side effect is headaches but it does work. I tried it once for a month and had about 2″ of hair growth. I decided to stop once I started getting headaches after 3.5 weeks. I only applied 2-3 a week to my scalp. You put in a spray bottle and add water.
Nikita Shukla says
Miconazole nitrate gel how apply on scalp??? Please reply me fast
Patricia Ann Rucker-thomas says
Do it work
Candace Cook says
I use it when ever I wear braids in my hair, which is often and when I do my hair grows like wildfire!
Stacie Hart says
Really? wow can I use the ones sold at Dollar stores??
Caramel Kimmie says
Why ppl try any o thing my hair is all natural long and thick this not necessity so foolery lol
Madmoiselle Genevie says
I’ve tried it. Had to stop. The headaches were killing me.
Carolina De Jesus says
Yes I read it does work
Ileah Collins says
it’s ctsit’s not that serious and see a doctor. if it works for you, it’s treating an ailment that you have so what happens when you stop?Off-label use can have some nasty effects because you don’t know what it’s going to do to you.
Sherronti' Flowers says
It works especially if you have a dandruff problem. Bc of the anti-fungal properties to get rid of the dandruff but the headaches will stop ya…
KaShaundra Davidson says
It works but after a while you’ll start to get headaches.
Shanna Sherfield-Rankin says
Caramel, just because YOUR hair is NATURALLY long and thick, doesn’t mean everyone’s is. That’s why they try it, IJS !
Jaq says
I was thinking the same thing, she has no reason to try it….
courtney says
Or she takes good care of her hair. Everyone’s hair grows, some at different rates than others. But most of the time if u don’t have some type of aliment. If u take care of your hair it will grow. If people stop being so impatient and wait for there hair to grow while taking care of it u wouldnt need some damn. Vagina creme
Sherronti' Flowers says
Yes Stacie. I used target brand
Dree Shivon says
Noooooo!!!!..I feel like this is going to desperate measures for length. …#negative
Sonya Arlene Evans says
I use it…no side effects here
Nikeya Breedlove says
Does It Help? And How Do You Use It? Directly Or Mixed N Some Type Hair Product?
Tamara Echols says
What!? Wow, that’s interesting
Geraldine Almond Joi Pierre says
Interesting!!
Patricia Burr says
Sounds to extreme if it’s causing headaches, obviously it’s not meant to be used on the head, I’d love the hair growth but I’m not that desperate, there’s are other ways to accomplish that ijs.. not tryna wake up one day with vision or memory loss! Due to a side affect that possibly may be discovered a few years down the road.
Zion Flippin says
It ONLY causes headaches if you use it alone. You must mix it with some kind of hair oil.
Tawanda Lck says
I tried it. Mixed it with natural oils and applied it to my scalp like grease. I used it 3 times and got a really bad scalp infection so I stopped using it. I did it one week after my relaxer. Maybe I should have waited longer. But I’m never trying it again.
Rebecca Tribeca says
Tried it, but I’m not sure it worked for me. Mixed it with an essential oil and it was still really drying on my roots.
Leticia 'Choc' Joshua says
Not a black thing…..white girls be on this….i don’t think it desperate
Amml Icandi says
I will pass. God made our hair to grow. In his time everything is good. Why add these unnatural chemicals? If this causes headaches and such it’s not good for you. Use at your own risk to your health and hair.
Tywone Bentley says
We all have tried something in life before that wasn’t pleasing to others..
You have people who put industrial foam under their skin to make big booties and breast. That stuff isn’t made for the human body. However an antifungal cream used as a topical shouldn’t do as much harm when it’s made for humans. Everything we use have side effects all medications have side effects even food…. anyhow
There are people who have hair that grows and is full thick and long.. but for other they don’t have the genes of hair growth. U have people who have medium length hair and it stops there. If this is what they choose to do let them… If this will make them feel good.. that’s great… but I can understand why some people don’t choose to go this route. To prevent any future health problems.
Ruth Guzman says
I’m good. My hair grows fast already so I’m not into all this hocus pocus stuff.
Jaq says
Then there is no need for you to post on this thread…. I don’t get it!! Don’t bash those who choose to use it, they have their reasons for trying it, just as you have yours. They’re not bashing you!!
Carolyn Byrd Vinson says
I on know! I heard it works but I don’t think I can do it… for the fear of side effects later on in life!
Keera Middleton says
I heard it works but will give you a headache.
Zion Flippin says
You must mix it with a hair oil, hair grease, hair moisturizer, or hair leave in conditioner.
Monique Pettus says
No thank you
Ashley Lawton says
Yeah but you can’t stop once you start
Kela 'Alek' Tillery says
For the headaches, you’re supposed to dilute it with either water or your choice of oil. That cuts down on some of the affinity of the strength.
Lisa Spice says
Is it good to get rid of nasty bad dandruff for good
Falinda Jeudy says
I used it and it work butttt I have migraines for days .
Tam Thomas says
first crisco now this!
Chaqueita Lagantta says
Crisco has been used since the 1900’s or earlier.
Vernesha T Brown says
When the side affect start… That mean you using to much… And you have start putting on the less… Say you put 3 time a week… Make it 2 times a week… It 1 times a week… And you can put to much on… You don’t need a lot…
Candace M. Chambers says
Try Jane Carter scalp solutions or mix your own- oils like ylang ylang and rosemary are known to grow hair BUT be sure to mix with a carrier oil like jojoba or olive oil…this is a must to mix with the carrier oils….just google essential oils mixed with carrier oils and it will give you the correct measurements. : ) **google is a scalp saver..lol**
Melissa Hunter says
Lisa Spice If you want to rid of dandruff for good, try using tea tree oil by adding it to your regular hair shampoo. It will help a lot, plus it is all natural. Not to mention it helps prevent head lice if you have any children.
Juanita Shamily- Young says
No.
Nadia Shelton says
Gave me very bad migraines. Never again.
Amelia Rose Green says
Why not, if it works.
Terry Norman says
I’ll pass lol
Angela Jenkins says

Dimitria Lee says
Hell no Lol stop the madness
Ilesha Sewell says
I mean I want long(between ASL and BSL no longer)hair but I won’t go through SUCH lengths to get that length but I know that people actually do this.To each their own though.
Ashley Elisabeth says
I was told this is accurate! I thought it was funny when a stylist told me and my mother about it. So I addressed it to my educator and she explained that its possible because it’ll get rid of the bacteria that may slow down the growing process. But my reason to not do it, as a stylist the number one rule is to always follow the manufacturing direction because they know more on the reaction of this product than us.
Kiara Latrice Sanders says
Yep..because it worked for me 🙂
Ni'Dayne Shaw says
It actually does work.. A family member has been using it for years to stop her edges from thinning out.. I use to think she was crazy but it works.. I’ve never done it though
Zion Flippin says
I used it on a bald spot that in the back of my hair that just wouldn’t grow and it is making my hair grow back in that spot. I mean I tried and used everything.
Lasonia E Johnson says
U thought it…threw it out…I believe sooner or later every thing will have effect on something…drink water…Biotin pills…massage your roots…wash it…oil it…and let nature do what it do…some have fast hair growth..some slow…and I’m both…I don’t pay attention to growth…just enjoying my hair…
Zennedy Bibbs Okonma says
Yes mix it in some grease and it works wonders.
Meredith Mitchell Williams says
No, should I?
Tyshawana Keeyika Love says

Kai McIver says

Markeisha Missindependent says

Connie Seabon-Reese says
There have been research done on this…and it’s the antifungal ingredient that works..
Renee MizMonroe Harding-Thomas says

Christine Carter Thompson says

Sweet Denise says
My daughter has alopecia and i havent found anything that works. Please share your tips for treating alopecia. Thanks
Kita 'Mzgotitlikedat' Barrett says
Ive heard about it but i also heard it can give you major headaches. Not willing to chance it. But if it works for you then hey… more power to ya!
Tracey Rolyart says
Nah… I might seek out the main ingredient that helps and buy it individually however
Tracey Rolyart says
Oh my people people actually have used this and are reporting migraines! that should tell anybody that it’s affecting the brain! But hey at least your hair will be long. Vanity. Smh
Erika Aston says

Sew Neat Ashfro says
Heard of a lot of women doing this. I just stick to grape seed oil
Pattie Armstead says
This is ridiculous! Are we so obsessed with having long hair that we are willing to use anything?! Geez
Lozette Clemons says
Although i wouldn’t try this, only becuase i am confident in the products i already use… But i have one question, how does it smell? Honestly i only use products on my hair that smell lile candy or fruit. Im just curious thats all.
Nyasia Tinsley-Lane says
Too weird, not that length obsessed!!
Yasha Knapknocker Louden-Barnes says
YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT!!!!…. THAT IS THE ONLY THING THAT GROWS HAIR!!!!..PERIOD!
Yasha Knapknocker Louden-Barnes says
Khalilah Walton….Yep. it will kill fungus, I have eczema and my dermatologist said it kills fungus, which is yeast….and you’re right sulfur 8 stinks, clogs up your pores, But IT DOES NOT GROW HAIR. You are what you EAT!
Vanetta Jones says
I’ve used it and it really has helped
Cerbie Lamarre says
Yes I do!!! it works.
Tara Michelle says
I would try it only because I have bad scalp issues. I’ve been trying to get a handle on my dandruff for years! I don’t care as much about the growth that’s just a bonus.
Nita Thompson says
It truly works!! Mixed with black Jamaican oil and coconut oil.
Candace Adams says
Nall.Im Kool
Beatrice Barosy says

Krystal Canto says
Yep using it now
Tasheba Nicole Jones says
Its works
TaShonda LadyShon Bolden says
Nope not using a vaginal cream on my scalp; I don’t care how well someone claims it work.
Christina Brown says
Miconizole nitrate is used to treat yeast infections. There is constantly yeast on the skin and scalp, called Candida albicans.The yeast on the scalp slows hair growth. Use monistat, which kills yeast, to slow the reproduction of the yeast on your scalp.
Natasha Blessings Ransom says
I’ve done it
SunShine Edwards says
Ill stick with natural juices and berries (coming to America) lol
Sherrie Holder-Contreras says
Im using it now it works mixed mine with mizani coconut cream
Angel Myers-Adams says
Not too far different from using Neutrogena(spelling?) T-Gel or Nizoral shampoo. They both have antifungals as the main ingredient.
LisaTreasureinme Johnson says
Yup. ! It works
Iyauna Dearing says
This works good, a lot of people think that they suffer from dandruff, but more or likely it is fungus on your scalp. Monostat cleans your scalp and it also stops the itching to.
Felisha Bass says
Can PrettiGurl KeyKey Shemeka Griffin Adams someone how do u use it? Is it let on the head, do u wash it out im just curious
Kimberly Titus says
ECTRA VIRGIN COCONUT OIL IS A ANTIFUNGAL AND I use it everyday. I also use APPLE CIDER VINEGAR.

Parra Stewart says
How many inch did it grow
Dee NoNonsense Reynolds says

Dee NoNonsense Reynolds says
Just take Hairfinity hair vitamins!
Tonya Hutson says
I have used it, and yes it worked WELL!!
Gershelle Cunningham says
It works though! I used it on my sister for her edges and within a couple of weeks, they were filling in.
Gershelle Cunningham says
Oneida Faithdriven James, you apply it to your scalp, then cover with a bonnett because its super greasy. Use it at night time…once a day
Briana DeCarmo says
o_O…and just curious but how do you use this….leave in or rinse out…
LaTonya Boone says
you can do a 4 week treatment wash once a week but when you apply the monistate 7 n some kind of grease you leave it in ^
LaTonya Boone says
Hair infinity vitimans grow you’re hair far as length but it doesn’t help with bald spots & doesn’t work as fast as monistate either hair infinity doesn’t work for everyone & it’s serious side effects like break out headaches happened to me & my sister n we had to stop taking it
Maria Stafford says
Who knew… not me…
Washington Karen says
:O
Stay-c Perry says
If it work why not
Shekinah Dyer says
I heard of this, just don’t trust the ingredients.
Terrice Buchanan says
I know many women who have used it for hair growth and it works!
Wubz Wubi says
It can cause headaches. Not worth it :/
Ariane Smiley says
My client was given a weeks worth of Diflucan pills from her DR not to help her hair grow but to control her excessive dandruff…I didn’t work tho…

Sylvia Boutadollar Ford says
In prison we used this in our hair n it work.. so now we see ole school wins again
Ashlea Willrich says

Charr Re'nee says
How much of the monistat do you use along with the oil? How many times a week & how long have you been doing this treatment? I would love to try it!!
Shellene White says
I want try that
Tara Nicole Gale says
You can look it up on youtube its the MN challenge. I mixed it with my favorite grease and oiled my scalp 2 times a week. My hair grew faster than ever before and my hair is now healthier and longer than its ever been it works!!
Collins C Tammy says

LaTonya Boone says
monistate 7 mixed with castor oil grease
You apply it everyday you’re hair lose is located for 4weeks, you leave it In & you can wash once a week thru out the 4weeks
Fefe Latasha
Mimi says
i don’t get why people like to reiterate every time that its meant for the *ahem*.
we have a cream over here in the UK, forgot what it’s called but it has miconazole nitrate in it (and a few other ingredients that are normally in most products), but they marketed it for Athletes foot, the same company then takes athlete foot off the packaging and just calls it antifungal cream, i checked the ingredients are the same.
i mean seriously its not like it was put on the *ahem* before going on your hair, sheeeesh!
anyways i bought the one we have here in the uk (the athletes foot one lol, since it was the exact same ingredients with the Normal antifungal one that didn’t have any intended use on the package), i diluted with oil (like some youtuber suggested….but nah! didnt work, kept seprating) then i diluted with water (the cream was water based).
i sprayed it on my scalp and…
well i don’t know, i usually get headaches, several a month, so i can’t even say if it caused anything or not.
also i don’t really commit to anything so i kinda gave up after like a week.
i might try again though.
but to minimise any effects that ive been hearing about.
1. i’ll dilute it
2. ill only use it before i have to wash my hair (kinda like a treatment before shampooing off)
3. i’ll only use it in “rinse off” products.
Mimi says
yup just checked for the product:
Daktarin 2% Cream is for fungal and associated bacterial infections of the skin and nails. Contains the active ingredient Miconazole Nitrate 2% w/w.
Lady K says
Can you use any kind of antifungal cream .
Marquis Bowie says
What about prenatal pills
JustMs Jennifer says
This does not work guys!!!! I looked at I don’t know how many videos stating that it did so I tried it for almost a month and no growth
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
Of course it doesn’t. There is absolutely NO data or FACT backing these claims that monistat grows hair. It simply treat FUNGUS on the scalp. Its a DERMAL treatment.
Kelly Jamila says
Then you have to ask yourself. …
is possible hair growth really THAT important ?
Dishauna Kirksey says
Junk cream for the hair lol… no thanks
LaChaunda Hawkins says
My mom and god mom used monistat and their hair grew. But I cant get over putting the cream that goes dwn stairs in my hair lol
Lanetta Sims says
I have thought about it…It seems to work for some, and not for others, pretty much like everything else…I want something to improve the overall health of my hair…if your hair is healthy, it will grow…InMyOpinion
Leticia 'Choc' Joshua says
It work for me…..I got a container of shea moisturize and put 25% of the cream in and then I put emu oil in and BJCO in then mixed it……it works wonders
Stacey Robinson says
I will not be using yeast infection cream in my hair. No matter how bad I want it to grow.
Belinda Trotter says
Unless your scalp has a yeast infection, I don’t think so. I’ll stick with my vitamins and good hair products!
Michelle Johnson says
Cool
Cheryl Bagley says
No thats nasty
Pauline Koudoyor says
Seriously this is not made for hair .stop putting craps on your head.is either u got big hair or you don’t there is no miracle in hair growing and is got a lot to do with genetics
Celeste Thomas says
Um, that’s a negative
Pat Thurman says
I have been using this product on my face for years. It works for the removal of all pimples.
Kelly White says
No ma’am
Leticia 'Choc' Joshua says
It definitely work very well if mixed with a oil or moisturizer. ..it not nasty it has no smell it a cream with fungicides in it that meant for growing hair…..we put tea, bleach, eggs etc etc in our hair….id get it
Monique Moni says
It worked for me and some of my family members but it wasn’t as fast growing as the hairinfinity vitamins I used.
Beth Renee says
It works for some. It’s best to mix it with an oil of choice, but if you stop using it your hair will shed badly
Karessa Watkins says
That might be true with some, but not me! I kept every bit of hair I grew besides the regular amount of shed that’s natural.
Beth Renee says
Yes, I’ve heard good & bad, but for me my hair shed more than usual so I gave it completely. I also heard you can get a headache from using it too much.
Karessa Watkins says
Awwww man that sucks! I know you was mad because that stuff is not cheap. Lol But yea it can give you headaches if you don’t dilute it at first and work your way up to full strength.
Beth Renee says
lol yes! The non generics are expensive! I’ll just continue eating fruits and veggies
Karessa Watkins says
Did it, plan on doing it again. It works was getting almost an inch a month. Don’t knock it till you try it!
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
An inch a month is what you would get if you WEREN’T using monistat. That’s a normal growth rate.
Karessa Watkins says
Noooo a half of an inch is the normal growth rate. It’s a fact, look it up. It’s also what they teach in cosmetology school.
Stephanie Jones says
It worked on myself, I used it after hair lost after chemotherapy
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
This is ONLY for people with SCALP ISSUES. unless your scalp has a fungus, theres no need for this
Malakah Angellia Gladston says
The monistat is a DERMAL (skin) treatment. Unless you have a scalp issues which is preventing your hair from growing, this DOES NOT grow your hair.
Chyna Entyce says
For some it does work I wouldn’t myself but I know others who have. Without scalp issues.
Amber Brown says
Don’t do it. It will make your head hurt.
Nicole LovingMee Dumars says
Yes im using it now…The grease I have been made for me in it have Monistat in it
Briana Lee says
I been using this product it’s me with almost everything
Melissa Degrate says
My friend just told me about this like 2 weeks ago
Torie Wilson says
What strength? One day, three day, five day? I have plenty of scalp u issues and I need something asap! Oh and when you dilute it, what do you use?
Kiesha Mccoy says
FYI hair growth starts within…. Applying topical ointments won’t grow you hair… Facts given by a doctor when I was having issues with my daughters hair growth…
Vivienne Rhodes Scofield says
To each his own. Everyone is different. What works for one might not be for another.
Mean Carleen Shaw says
I wont try it because for me it’s just not that serious…..
Frances Babycake Parks says
Yes
Selket Colaire says
Does this work for dandruff?
Myra Singlelady says
My cousin Daughter had some bumps and will scratch all day in the back of her head. And then her hair started to fall off. Her Dr. Wrote a Prescription for miconazol cream, she thought that was crazy. But guess what, it worked. And her hair is growing back.
Gloria Egbunike says
It worked for me so
Ashley Iainttakinnoshit Plummer says
Ive been using it for a while and I love it.
Nicole Hartley says
Are woman really this desperate to have long hair??
Cassandra Meiko Grandison says
It actually works
Annie Martin-Roberson says
I’m a little nervous about thy look taking anything now. My hair dresser and I both used HairFinity. Both of our hair became severely thin. I think I’ll stick to taking Biotin.
Jerome Ward says
What?
Kai McIver says
Please make this trend go away. Doing this is stoopid. Good day
Andrea Angie Tater says
Vaginal cream in my hair…..NO…LOL!!!!
Tammie Faulkner Taylor says
If it works for some, why is it “stupid”? Is it “stupid” for people to use Milk of Magnesia on Eczema if it works?
It’s a cream that’s not much different than the one’s used for athletes foot, ring worm and jock itch. People acting like it was in a vagina first.
Dabney Ross Jones says
Shaking my head, no.
Youlonda M. McCullough-Jackson says
It works!! Most beauticians will tell their customers to use it.
Haynes Anita says
Tierra King maybe I should give this a try for my sick scalp
Cheryl Boyd says
Edith Adams Rekeshia Parks now they making s**t up
Juanita Shamily- Young says
I have got do some research on this.
Shalyne Portis-Lockett says
Works good.
Joyce Henry says
I have heard about this before
Tracy Simon says
This is old. My aunt told me about this years ago. It helped my thinning edges grow back
Cynthia Rabb says
Really
Eboni Jay says
This is excellent on diaper rashes
Nakita Moore says
I’ve heard it works
Monesha Desirée Martin says
It works!! My daughter had psorasis real bad in her head when she was younger and a lady at church told my aunt to mix vagisil cream with regular hair grease and to grease her scalp with it maybe two -three times a week! And sure enough it went away and changed the texture of her hair for the better!!! IT WORKS YOU GUYS!!
Inessha Moores says
It’s an anti fungal so if you have psoriasis that causes breakage it helps keep the condition at bay to help hair growth
Ebonie Parker says
Never again. I tried this and it gave me a massive headache.
Nycole Sproles says
It works I used it on my daughter hair with wild grow oils .
Nehemiah Roldan says
Wow. What happened to just taking care of ones hair and body and letting it do it’s thing?
Nichole Brookshire says
GUILTY.. I tried this years ago and all it did was give me a headache
Donna Myre says
I’ve tried it and it worked for me ( I added it to my leave-in conditioner)! A tip from my daughter-in-love !
Imade Iyamu says
Just take care of your hair. No need for the gimmicks.
Mia Sydney says
Tried and it worked, still using. I suggest mixing it with water and an essential oil to dilute it somewhat but I saw results in 2 weeks literally
Tiffany Elston says
That’s why Jamaican black Castor oil works. It’s anti-fungul. And since it’s natural, it doesn’t cause headaches.
Inda Williams says
Did wonders for me
Inda Williams says
I did get a headache if you don’t use enough oil mixed with it.
Michelle Gause says
Sisters please leave this mess alone. For a natural hair community that damn near burn women at the stake for using “chemicals” to relax their hair I find it unsettling that the use of this on your head seeping into your brain is being celebrated.
Lisa Lisa says
I’m scared to try this
Johari Kafi says
Nope
Unique Brown says
I find that vitamins, fruits, and vegetables help my hair the most.
I also drink a lot of water. Hair grows from a root. I found it best to treat from the inside versus treating what’s possibly damaged.
Keitra Hinton says
If you want to to try it do a test spot first. A couple years back I did a test spot on the side of my ear and my hair fell out in that area. It didn’t grow back for about 6 months.
Tayo Jaiyesimi says
I’m a pharmacist and this is not a growth aid. If you suffer from dandruff (which is fungal in nature) then of course you might see some results BUT its not a growth aid and should not be used in this manner even for dandruff. There are better products. You may be causing more damage to you hair in the long run
Michelle Gause says
I’m glad you said this… I just don’t get all these gimmicks. This mess probably is akin to a placebo…they think it’s working because they want to believe it is. I’d be scared to death to put his mess on my scalp and the possible side effects. They may not see any adverse affects now but who’s to say they won’t have severe issues down the road. *smh*
Nebraska Jones says
Y’all have got to stop putting the whole HBA aisle on your head in hopes of “growth.” ♀️
Troy says
I used it for over six months on my scalp putting the remainder of liquid on my chest, never grew more hair on my head but i did grow a full blown hairy chest instead, I’m still amazed.
