[@cassandrep3477]

@@tamithecreator Were you able to make your appointment via phone or in person? I’ve called her office before a few times never seem to speak with anyone.

[@tamithecreator]

@@cassandrep3477 her office is busy, if you call and leave a detailed message they’ll call you back. She’s usually booked for a month so I usually make my follow up appts while I’m there.

[@bbappzz98]

You’ve made so much progress! I might try microneedling at some point, mine have been growing back since I stopped letting other people doing my hair but they weren’t as bad in the beginning. I thought at a certain point they would just not grow back but hair follicles are honestly so resilient. I’m not taking them for granted anymore.

[@tamithecreator]

Amen, if only I could go back in time. You’re doing the right things so I’m sure they’ll come back in slowly but surely 💕

[@LindaWisdomphotography]

From the abbreviations for your oil, I worked out the compound is most likely.... M5% : Minoxidil 5%, fin0.1% : Finasteride 0.1% (Blocks DHT) Tr0.25% : Tretinoin 0.25% (Tretinoin is a form of vitamin A that boosts Minoxidil absorption) Fl0.02% : Fluocinolone acetonide 0.02% (Fluocinolone acetonide is a corticosteroid to reduce inflammation)

[@tamithecreator]

Omg! So it’s basically minoxidil 😭😭😭😭😭

[@LindaWisdomphotography]

@@tamithecreator Hehe! 🤣Well not really. its basically Minox on acid! Your combo is a potent compound with all the other ingredients boosting Minox to the max, esp. Tret (Vit A) is known to accelerate its properties, Fin blocks the DHT (that causes hair loss), and Flu Ace reduces inflammation, so they haven't done you dirty. The results are there to see by how fast its worked for you 😃

[@tamithecreator]

@@LindaWisdomphotography thank you for an explanation that I can actually understand. Now my only concern is if the hair will fall off once I stop using it.

[@tamithecreator]

I pinned your comment because you answered a question that EVERYONE was asking so thank you 💕

[@suratahberrenstein9319]

Soo you recommend minoxidil? (From wich brand tho)

[@allanya74]

Last year I was diagnosed with scalp eczema and I need to get this shot. My skin and scalp would probably feel 100% better. Right now my itchy scalp keeps me up all night. My dermatologist prescribed me Flourcinide scalp oil but it is very expensive. It costs $64. Been using Sulfur 8 for now because it’s much cheaper. Thank you once again for this video. ❤❤❤

[@babybopp9830]

Thank you for talking about the cost. I am in the same predicament from tight/ heavy box braids from years ago. This gave me courage to go to a dermatologist and explore my options especially since you got such great results!

Thanks so much

Hey lady! I have been following your hair journey since you started it, and I've been on the same hair journey as you. I'm so proud of you and your hair looks so healthy and it's grown so much. Wow I am amazed. I'm watching from Kennesaw Georgia a suburb of Atlanta Georgia. As you know the last time that I saw a video by you I did let you know that I was doing the exact same thing, and my hair has grown considerably as well I'm just having an issue with my edges also. I'm in a financial situation right now in regards to my living arrangements so I cannot afford a dermatologist and my insurance does not cover that but that's okay because prayer works. I wish you all the best and may God continue to bless your hair growth!!

Watching from Germany and have been following since the big chop. Your video's are so inspiring and real. There's barely a day that goes by I don't think about just shaving mine off too and starting over. Only 2 things have stopped me, 1. I never learnt how to deal with my afro hair, mum always did it for me and really wouldn't know where to start. 2. We don't have any specialist in afro hair where I live, or even any shops or salons. I always did my hair myself as an adult. I really despair.. but still, I love your video's and am thankful for being able to watch you on your journey l!

[@tamithecreator]

First of alll thank you for the heartfelt comment! 🥹💕 second, when it comes to shaving your head it’s something you’ll wake up one day and just do. I was supposed to cut mine on Jan 1st and didn’t actually do it until mid March. When I cut mine I didn’t know how to do natural hair either since I was basically relaxed since 8 years. Up until now I’m still learning how to do my hair & it’s been a process but I’m loving it. It’s definitely worth it, do it on your time when you’re ready!❤️ you got this!!

[@Jayne-A.L]

That's the advices I was looking for ! Going thru the same process but I never relaxed my hair in the last 15 years, I got breakage on the nape area + my edges .. Cut all of my hair a year ago and it's still not going on those areas ... I got a routine, I apply oil and make sure it stays hydrated but nothing seem to work
