I've used this 3 times (1/3 ea MT, conditioner & castor oil), left in 30 min. Lost LOTS of hair each time. Is this temporary? I hope!

I do not loose hair using the mega tek by itself...never used castor oil. Possibly an issue using the two together? I would use one or the other...good luck

Try tweaking the ratio. Maybe the MT is too strong for you and you need more castor oil. Fortunately I did not lose any hair at all, only growth and I use a 1:1 ratio.

I saw reviews where people suggested taking garlic pills to reduce the shedding so I've been doing that as well. Also I actually leave the MT mixture in my hair and didn't have any issues. Maybe you could try pretreating your hair with the MT alone, wash it out and THEN deep condition. You have to balance between the protein in MT and restoring moisture lost.

I used it 3x a week as instructed for 5 years. also taking propecia. never noticed any new hair growth but assumed it was preventing more hair from falling out. eventually it broke so I stopped using it and was surprised to see no difference in hair loss. its my opinion that this device doesn't accomplish anything of value.

I'm wondering the same thing. I don't want to straighten my hair, just defrizz and loosen curls a bit. Has anyone tried it and cut out some steps? e.g. keeping in hair for less than 48 hours or cutting the blow dry/flat iron?

I use it everyday, i have around one month and i still got for a couple of weeks more... i have short hair, and i use it moderately in every shower, remember to let the conditioner for around 3 or 4 minutes.. you'll feel the freshness... and the tonic after my hair is more or less dry... But yes i always use them all together...

The conditioner can take a long time to wash out. This product could make it worse. Growth and strength is what this product has to offer. Try looking at a lower damage level? I've used almost different level. Hope this helps

As with any hair growth (from what I've learned just researching others' experiences) it can take a couple/few months. Since I'm trying to stick with the least amount of chemicals on my hair right now (since chemicals can deter growth) I am using an all-natural conditioner. I have to use a conditioner though because if not it would frizz up too bad. Phytoworx is only a shampoo from what I've read. Just fyi it does not lather like other shampoos but it's not supposed to either. That's no big deal to me. As long as it does what I paid for and from ALL the research I did on it, it should do the trick!! Quick tip - I'm not sure yet if this speeds up the process, but every other day or so I have been putting it on the more troubled spots while in a hot (steaming) shower to open up pores more. Then I'll leave it in (not rinsing it out) put a shower cap on for 1-4 or so hours (this keeps heat in and I'm guessing it helps to keep the pores open too) then I hop back in to rinse it out (with cool water). This is recommended with a lot of other (all-natural) treatments, so I'm just assuming it would in this case too! I've only had this product for a couple of weeks, so I would not have experienced any growth from it yet. I'll be sure to keep updating here though : ) Ash

Jody it's best to use 1.5 bundles when doing your hair. The hair is extremely thick once applied so don't use all three. It did not last long though. I was only able to keep it in for 2 weeks because it tangled...alot

My hair was a great color when I started using it. Now My hair is 50% GONE. 10 months and it is not recovering even using Rogaine. I have been in touch with the FDA about it. Don't chance it!!!

I only used about 1/3 of a bottle and had no problems. So, I would say that if you used the whole bottle, that was too much, too strong, and I would guess that it did damage your hair. Do, a good oil conditioner; one you put on, leave on for 10 minutes while adding heat by blow dryer. That will help mend your hair somewhat. After the 10 minutes you of course shampoo it out with a milder shampoo. You don't really want to degrease it thoroughly till the next day.

Hi Jen! I felt like I noticed the decrease in shedding after about a week or two, and then I started noticing little fuzzies growing up by the front of my hairline, but I've only been using it for about a month now. I am sold on it, though. It feels like the most noticeable results I've gotten from this type of product. Hope that helps.

It's perfect! I've been using it for 2 months i believe. I use it for the whoooole area. The first time, not gonna lie, will be a rather painful, but 100% worth it!. After that the hairs grow back here and there, alot thinner, and i hardly even feel it anymore. Now i'm always smooth and ready to go. ; )Recommendation, soak in a nice warm bubble bath first, and then use lotion right after. Also the redness/irritation from having your hair yanked out by its roots usually only lasts around 24 hours. After a few uses that also gets less noticable. Nothing nearly as bad as the horrible irritation i get from constantly shaving the area.Definitely buy this, i absolutely love it. Best one i've ever used! It's perfect!

It takes a very long time. My hair dresser has used almost the whole bottle, and is just now seeing some re-growth. However, I do not use it daily.

Hi Parker...sorry for delay in responding...I have run thru 1-3 times, w/a lot of hair & it does work, but at a high temperature, because I was in a hurry.However, I know that it's better long term (for your hair), to use a lower temperature & do it in sections.Otherwise, using such a high heat will damage the same sections of hair, over & over again, as the heat has to pass from outside hair (top layers), to inside hair (closer to your scalp), to get the job done.Hope that helps.DM

I use half of the recommended use and only once a day. I am seeing great regrowth results. This is a budget tactic for me. This method lasts me 2 to 3 months from 1 bottle. AWSOME !!!

Love to answer anything on my favorite Conditioner ever! Most people use this once maybe twice a month just as a deep conditioner. I myself I have hair down the middle of my back it's very thick. ..I wash about every three days sometimes more. I use this every time I wash I've the rinse but I just can't get away from the mask. I know you don't need a lot but I'm pretty generous with mine I totally coat my hair clip it up while I do something else. One tub has taken me over a month! What is left is probably a good 5 more washes.

I use it all over my hair including my roots. I also leave it on for 15 minutes. It seems to help and I have been using it for several years.
