I received my order of Boundless Tresses. I can't imagine using this greasy nonsense every day or even every other day. I only use it in between my parted hair when I rollerset. Has anyone gotten significant results from it? :-)

I haven't been using it 100% consistently but I have been using it about 2x a week...i can tell that's it helped fill in my edges since I took my braids out but I can wait to flat iron at the end of September to see the grown I retained

Good! This is sort of off topic, but I my ends and I are definitely at a crossroads... I know about them splitting up the hair shaft and things, but my hair looks so healthy. I'm going to just keep on with it and see how it goes.

If you want to make your own. Here's a recipe I got from another forum.
Ingredients:
Extra Virgin Olive oil
Coconut oil
Jojoba oil
Pure sulphur (yellow colour)
Empty MTG 32OZ bottle for good measure....i fill the bottom about a full inch of sulfur powder and fill the remainder with the natural oils. leave the mixture for a day or two so that the sulphur can dissolve a bit into the oil mix. give it a good shake before applying the sulphur to scalp/hair area. if you find the mix clumps together run it through the blender.

Hey Ladies! I ordered Boundless Tresses last week and it arrived last night (about 5 business days), not bad. Including the shipping fee, I paid $17.75. I used it according to directions, trying to apply it only to my scalp. It is so greasy and runny of course it didn't just stay on my scalp so after wrappin my hair I am definately one greasy sista today. My hair is relaxed with only 1.5 inches of new growth (plus the new growth was pressed straight) . I think if I had more new growth the kinks would have trapped some of that oil and kept it from sliding throughout my hair. I think it will be fine if used when wet setting. I'm going to stick to it and measure my results after 4 weeks. I'm pretty consistent at 1/2" of growth per month, so I'll know if it is doing anything. I'll check back in September with a before and after shot.

Yep that stuff so greasy! But I like applying a little oil to my scalp so why not just use this stuff if it makes my hair grow? Someone is making a killing off of this though. The container looks like someone used a old printer and taped the contents on the bottle.

Hey I just did a very very very light dusting the first in maybe 5 months and I have not been seeing broken hairs only shed hairs when I do my hair...I do see splits but since cowashing/rinsing daily and obsessive search and destroys those are few and far between... girl do what you gotta do if your hair is healthy and your not seeing little broken off pieces then why cut off your progress

mslady, thanks for sharing the recipe..i was lurking on blackhairmedia.com..man, there was a real big "to do" between the vendors and the Boundless Tresses exilir..or a copy of it? not sure..
It had gotten so bad that they had to finally "lock" the topic..i was trying to figure out what "product" they were talking about..apparently, they couldn't mention any names..when finally "BT" was the name the vendors would use on the forum during this intense discussion...
i am so glad you posted the recipe..we also found the recipe posted on the "long hair forum", and many other places...i am so grateful that the "recipe" or any version thereof, is not a big "secret"..
Thus, i've started a thread, sharing the recipe with other forum members...would you believe other forum members also shared their version of it as well? Plus offering to help any forum members who don't have access to sulphur..it's great!
You've started a wonderful trend, MsLady..The women on the BlackHairMedia forum thank you!
some days, it's just not worth chewing through the restraints.
I, too, had ordered boundless tresses when I decided to do a thorough search on LHCF. Guess what? The lady who sells BT isn't the lady who created it according to the LHCF. It seems that someone else started it and the BT seller found it, created it, maybe tweaked it and is now selling to everyone online. Not knocking BT seller for getting her hussle on.
Well, looks as if the BT seller isn't the only one.. There is someone else who is selling it on the forum under her name..This is where the fur started flying..it really became ugly..still is..
Can you tell me: what is Surge? Apparently, they stopped making it..plus it came in different formulas..Surge 9, then that discontinued Surge 14..then they said, this has been put on hold..
What is Surge anyway? everyone is talking about it..That, MTG (i have no idea what that is) and Monistat..
also, Have you ever heard of Ting Ting?
some days, it's just not worth chewing through the restraints.
Surge Hair Revitalizer Plus 14 Increases Hair Growth Stops Split Ends and Breakage
Surge Plus 14 utilizes a special combination of proteins to help stimulate and promote hair growth. Biotin and Keratin Proteins as well as Aloe Vera help stop split ends and the hair from breaking while the muccopolysaccharides help promote hair growth. Within 14 days you should notice a difference in your hair. Plus 14 can also be used as a detangler and will leave your hair tangle free without breakage.
Directions: Spray directly into scalp, part hair or braid then spray scalp. For best results shampoo hair and use twice a day. As a detangler and to stop split ends, spray directly on hair.
**************************************
MTG is Main, Tail and Growth by Shapley's.
It's a product that was orginally formulate for humans but used now predominately in the equine sector (for horses). The main thing that helps with the hair for human growth is sulfur which MTG has but it STANKS to high heaven. That's why many women started making their own sulfur versions of MTG without the stank factor.
Miconazole nitrate, an antifungal agent, is used for skin infections such as athlete's foot and jock itch and for vaginal yeast infections. Miconazole comes in cream, lotion, powder, spray liquid, and spray powder to be applied to the skin. However, many ladies mix it with other stuff and apply it to the scalp to promote hair growth.
Miconazole nitrate is the ingrediant in Monistat (yeast infection cream) and NeosporinAF.
okay, MN is what i'm hearing about...about one year ago, someone came on the BHM forum, saying: "I can't believe women resort to this"..and because it seems to yield very good results, everyone is using it..
Well, not everyone..
Thank you for all of the information...i guess i can't make surge 14 at home, but the Boundless Tresses is good enough..it's only been two months since i've been out of my weave, and i am trying like the dickens to thicken my hair up..
I've been in a weave and cornrows for so long, i wonder if my hair was ever thick to begin with..when i wore it naturally, it was sooo hard to manage..it shrank immediately coming out of the shower...and it's 4c..to boot..
with a very mild texturizer, it's so much easier to work with especially after washing...but it's thinner..my beautician said i would have to wait at least 6 months to a year to let the hair get back to it's old self again..especially after years of "binding it up" in braids, weaves, and what was worse, perms under a net weave..
It's shoulder length, with bald sides and bang area from no-lye relaxers and flat-ironing (to "match" the silky straight weave)..
The sides are coming in very nicely after two months ..(they used to be chin length, now they're nubbles..before that, they were totally slick/bald...
The BT recipe will really be a huge help..thanks again..
Ting Ting is an asian head massager..Asians swear by it to grow their hair..check it out on amazon.com..just do a search on "Ting Ting"..

If you're really asking this question, you need to ask what the hell it is that would make you go to these extremes for hair growth.
I don't know how many times I can stress this! We do not need to be going crazy with hair growth methods, this world tells you you need long hair to be beuatiful, and this life is much more important than that
I don't mean to rant, but COME ON! Even in school they say not to smell,taste, or get any of the stuff in chemistry labs on your skin.
Its not that hard, don't lose your natural ability to THINK because of growing hair
