Canopy44, is that a trial size or the large bottle (32oz?) that you got for $9.50?
[/QUOTE]
It's the trial size. But this is no wimpy trial size. You get 6 ounces which a lot, I figure it will last me at least 6-8 weeks and I plan to apply 5x a week. By the time this is finished, i should be able to tell what it's doing for my hair and if it's working

MTG update. I have been using this for 1 week now. When I got the product, I put it on asap. My boyfriend started calling me barbeque and started to get hungry when he smelled my hair . So I put some peppermint oil in MTG right quick and added this mixture to an old WGO bottle. I had about a 1/4 of WGO left in the bottle, so it should be a good mixture.
Right now I'm experiencing some very thick new growth. I'm having such a hard time dealing with it right now but I love it. I'm not quite ready to say that's because of the MTG. I started taking care of my hair at the end of August, this could be the result of good haircare thanks to forums like this, the WGO, or just more exercise.
I will say I have noticed some thickness around the edges and temples. My hair is just broken all around the edges, but I'm getting some hair, especially in the back. The back, in fact, looks fairly decent now. I'm still not ready to say this is because MTG, even though I've noticed this since I started using it. I'm such a skeptic . I guess I will keep using it 5x a week until I notice visible inches.
One problem I'm having is MTG dripping everywhere! I put it on at nights and I have so much shine throughout the next day. I have to wipe my face in the bathroom. How are you guys dealing with this? Also, I think the sulfer in MTG stained my silver earrings, has anyone else had problems with this?
Good luck!

Canopy, I forgot to mention the jewlery thing when I posted before. I went out w/ the girls last sat. I thought I was cute, I had on my silver Ankh neclace, silver anka earring, and 2 silver charms ( ankh, & isis) in my Locs. I got up to go in the restroom when I looked in the mirror all that pretty silver was Black! They tarnished that fast, I think it's from the sulfur in the MTG.
So now when I put it on at night I tie my hair in an old silk scarf, then I put a flour sack towel over that. This way I don't get any of it on my face or neck. The tarnish came off when I cleaned them.

Don't feel bad. My husband thought he smelled the neighbors barbeque last night...accept they weren't having a barbeque. I was the one who smelled edible.
He doesn't mind the smell so far...it's been 3 months.
I've had the horse jokes too.

I saw this message and just had to butt in.
I have a favorite necklace I wear often (silver). I've been cleaning it every week and suspected it was from the MTG. What a sacrafice for great hair huh?

sorry to keep bringing this thread back up but i like going to one thread
for a lot of mtg info and to see how people are doing....so for many of us,
we're at that 1 month mtg anniversary. are you going to get to month 2?
anyone have amazing results? i'm in week 3 right now (and i press it out
on sunday) but i can say i'm pretty pleased right now. my sides used to
be patchy and now i feel like they're nicely filled in. my back is also
coming along well....i wish i could get back there and take some pictures
but i don't have a digital camera (if anyone knows where to get one for
cheap i'd appreciate it).
i think i'm going to have to step up the number of times i wash my hair a
week. right now, i'm at 1x but i may have to go 2x because it seems that
the mtg attracts dirt. anyone else experience this. i don't think i'm going
to have the full 1 inch because i discovered that the pepperment oil i was
using contained ALCOHOL and no doubt is responsible for the
breakage im having and most likely the lack of growth. when i found out,
i dumped it out and now im just using mtg straight up. still, im hoping
for some results by next week. share the results ladies!

Thankx, for keeping this going Canopy! I am at the 1mon. point and want to hear what everyone thinks about the MGT. I used Tea tree, & rosemary EO in mine
