Hair Growing With Xin Lin👯🏾

<

7/4/16

As you can tell, I have a hairline. I haven't seen this in years. You can check out my other posts and see that I literally had no hair in the front, due to it receding. I am happy to see it growing back!

Update- This post is super LATE! I should have posted this two months ago but didn't... lol I have been super busy with a lot of things going on in my life. To be honest, I am more active on Instagram. I love Instagram! I am trying to remain active on there since I am practically over Facebook【however, I have to return next month to post reviews🙄】. I am afraid that more offline issues will prevent me from coming here like I used to. But hey, can't be online all the time, right? I was suppose to do a photo shoot for my new layout on here but again, business prevented me from doing so...

Hey guys~ I am here with another blog entry to talk about hair growth. I will present some products I've purchased that can assist in hair growth. Feel fee to utilize this for reference!



If you have been following my blog for a long time, you will see that I have been talking about growth oil products for years... From this, to this, and this and even this. I've decided to allow my hair to go on another oil diet, as I am trying to grow out my bleached ends.

My bald spots are starting to fill back in. I just realized that I have another box of dye to use. I will probably use it next month or later on this month. Won't be dyeing my hair again for a while...

Since I have been participating in a few projects, I've earned some Amazon cash and decided to buy a few oil products. But what about the oils I already own? I still have them, but I keep them in a safe place just incase I need to add them to other products that I use. They come in handy when I need to do that.

In this package, I received the wrong item. I was suppose to receive Garnier Fructis Fall Fight Strand Saver Anti-Breakage Spray Treatment for Falling Breaking Hair.

Have you noticed that the majority of these items have Castor Oil in them? It's because this oil actually works! Using it alone, it doesn't work, but with other ingredients such as peppermint oil, tea tree and menthol, it does wonders! I love the scents of everything except for the Organic R/s product. It smells too greasy. I thought it was grease but it's actually a cream. My step sis put me on this new brand I've never heard of E'TAE Natural Products. I'll have to check them out as soon as the price is lowered.

Sometimes, it's not always what you put on your body which assists in growth, but also what you put IN your body! I've been hearing the hype over hair gummies and pills, so I went out to purchase Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin and Nails gummies. Edit- I've ran out this product back in July.

I am not a pills person, I hate to even take pills even during periods and migraines. Ugh! I've heard about these gummies through Smiley360. I never qualify for the good vitamins, just those yucky Centrum ones! But these are very delicious, comes in strawberry! Make sure you are not allergic to strawberries prior to purchasing this item! I also hope that this also grows out my M.I.A. eyebrows. lmao But just like any biotin product, it will grow all body hair. Since I am used to having body hair, it's not really an issue with me, as long as it's not growing as long as my hair. lmao Thank god for my razors!

I've began to use the Natrol product on 9/19. It tastes really good! I hope that it works! I will provide updates in the future. The Elasta products did nothing for my hair, although it made the natural parts of my hair a little soft. I will try them again in the future. The two Dr. Miracle Oils don't tingle my scalp. It's probably because some spots in my head have grown. I will continue to use them, in assistance to promoting hair growth. The Daily growth one tingles a little but the serum does not. Then again, with the D.G. one, I applied it on my scalp with the  O/R product. I've applied the serum to freshly washed hair, and it did nothing but made my hair smell like peppermint. lol I agree with another reviewer, who stated that their products no longer 'tingle.' They must have altered their formulas. The creme versions of these are better. Also the hair follicle serum works magically. I only use it on freshly washed hair. The Doo Gro JBCO smells soo good! It smells exactly like Bee Mine Bee Lovely Moisturizing Daily Conditioner(ran out of this product months ago). The disappointment with the Doo Gro oil, is that it has all of the great oils in it, BUT Castor Oil! I would suggest adding JBCO to this product if you really want this to work.

Edit- I came in to add that Okasan handed me some multivitamins that she ordered through her healthcare plan 9/22. I ran out the gummies below a month or two ago. Arigato Okasan! Because I sure as hell wasn't about to spend any money to buy any from the store. I've checked out the ingredients, and biotin is listed as one of the ingredients. It has 150 MCG of it in this product. Boy, if you think my hair has grown now, wait til the upcoming months as I continue to take these and the Natrol Biotin tablets. LOL But it's always a good idea to take MTV with Biotin so you won't break out with acne.

I've been eating a lot of healthy foods【don't care to share details but I have ceased from consuming sodas as they were doing damage to my teeth】, which could be contributing to my hair growth. Been drinking a hell of a lot of water, all types of water, electrolytes and etc. I love to eat and I love to drink water, tea, shakes and juices.

My latest hair photo. Taken 9/26. I am still contemplating what I should do with the bleached ends... On my Instagram, you can see that also on this day, I got a free product from Sally Beauty Supply.

I wanted to add in one more thing! Here's my box【9/21】 and Herbal Essence Voxbox【9/23】. Yes, that's right, it's a voxbox from influenster. I have not received anything from them in a year.
