    Well, you don't need to read the whole thread to get the main points...
    still, for the sake of KNIT, I'll give you a quick and short briefing
    -Some people don't get results by using MN
    - Some people notice new hairs growing
    -Some people notice hair shedding(but not extreme) after stopping the useof MN
    -MN usually doubles the hair growth rythm, so you can expect about an inch a month.

    I've been using it. I used it for 2 weeks then forgot for a few weeks now and am using it again and going to be strict about it. I had a line of new baby hairs in the front of my hairline from using it and now I have a new line of baby hairs growing in, they look silly but it means I may have thicker hair than I've ever had in my life.

    It's worth it at least to try for a month or two. I apply the cream straight to my scalp (the 7 day one) and keep it on overnight... I need to wash mine out right now I'm a grease monster!
    I definitely at least have an inch of roots and the last time I dyed was a hair gloss mid February. My hair grows painfully slow as well so go for it.

    How often do you do that? I haven't been using very long and so far I only do it every few days. I'm curious to try leaving it on overnight.

    Every other night. Or two nights in a row if you know you won't be able to do it for two nights after those nights. I don't do it when DBF is coming over, he buys it for me but wouldn't appreciate that haha.
    I only do it right before bed since it makes my hair greasy and it guarantees keeping it in for over 6 hours+

    angela, if you are planning on buying it at walmart you should consider getting the equate generic brand. It's what I use and is about $5 for a tube of the 4% miconazole nitrate, which is less than half the price of brand name monistat (and has the same main ingredient).
    hoping for BSL by september!

    NICE thank you for that info! I just jumped on this bandwagon too and I think I'll put this on my scalp 3 times a week and see how I do. I contacted Dollartree.com to see if they have any creams that contain Miconazole nitrate in them, cuz if I'm gonna do this 3 times a week it better be cheap haha
