Hair Mask Cream Red Pepper Paprika Extract Strengthening Growth Olive Oil Vitamins Warming Effect Russia Healthy Natural Deep Conditioning Damaged Dry Professional Repair Treatment Silky Soft 250 Ml

I am a black female, that recently did what is called a "big chop". I did my "big chop" in January 2013 because while I had a decent length of hair, it was severley damaged from me not taking care of it like I should. Before I go any further, let me state that my hair is completley natural. I havent had a perm since 2010, and prior to getting one in 2010, I hadn't had one since about 2005. In January, I chopped all of my hair off, like I knew I didnt want to go COMPLETELY bald, so I chopped all my hair the closest I could get it to my scalp (I did leave about 1cm in the front though). I have been using different products and my hair has been growing back at an ok rate(i am one of those people that hair grows slowly), HOWEVER after my second application of this after washing my hair, and applying little tiny knots in my hair, when I went to wash my hair yesterday, my hair had grown at least 1-1.5 cm!!!! okay, 1 cm...does not sound like much, but it is for one week!!! No lie, I have a set of twins, and when I took my hair out my the little knots, they were like mommy your hair has grew!!! Lets put it this way, when I washed my hair LAST Thursday, I didnt have enough hair to even twist thats why I had to use the tiny black rubberbands and place in little knots all over my head, however when i took my hair out of the knots to wash my hair yesterday, I can actually TWIST my hair (even in the back, and I cut the back a little shorter than the front)! I am going to order me some more of this stuff, it is the real deal, and yes, it BURNS to the high heavens (but I like it, for the most part, because it feels like a heating pad on your head, however last night when I applied it, REALLY REALLY burned, but I still could take it)because as black female that used to get perms, I am used to burning...and thats what it feels like a perm that burns, but of course its the paprika...and not harmful chemicals. One more thing, I didnt have time to actually twist my hair into knots last night, so I did put knots using the little rubberbands again, but GET this, where is the last time I had like 10-15 little knots all over my head, because I was trying to "grab" hair if that makes sense, last night when I did it, I only have like 5 or 6, because my hair has grown that I can grab MORE hair per knot if that makes sense. Bottom line, I think its like the 1st reviewer said (who was the reason I decide to give this a try) the fact that this burns, opens up your pores, therefore, whatever treatments and / or conditioners you use on your head is absorbed better in your scalp (which feeds your hair). I dont think the product ITSELF is what is growing my hair, I think the fact that it opens up my pores, so my hair can absorb my homemade treatments (like a mixture of Brahini and emo oil) and conditioners (cocounut)is what is causing my hair to grow. I really hope they do not stop selling this stuff, because there is nothing else out on the market like it, that I know of.....

...I mean burn in a good way! I am a black female with natural tight coiled hair curls and I did a big chop as well (one of the other customers for this product said they did a big chop). My sides are shaved and in the middle is slightly more (a mohawk) I hate my hair being this short but knew it was the best choice if I wanted my hair to grow healthy and natural. I had perms before, even dreads once but chopped that off. I'm been searching desperately and doing a lot of research on things to promote hair growth. SO I purchased: Tropic Isle Living Jamaican Coconut Black Castor Oil 4oz Ultrax Labs Hair Surge Caffeine Hair Loss Hair Growth Stimulating Shampoo Mask - Balsam "Paprika" for the Strengthening and Growth of Hair with Paprika Extract and Olive Oil 250 Ml (this product) Emu Oil Pure Premium Golden - Powerful Skin and Hair Moisturizer - 4 fl.oz. Hesh Brahmi Amla Herbal Hair Oil 200ml Since my hair is SUPER SHORT I have (for the past 4 days) been using all these products all my hair each day. I put this on first (the longer the better I think and it didn't come with directions in english so I'm following what everyone else has said) I leave this on for about 30-50 min and make sure you put it in wet hair, not dry. WEAR A SHOWER CAP Then the Shampoo I listed above leaving it in for 3-5 min in the shower (After showering hair should be wet) Mix all the products with a little water so my hair isn't to oily or heavy. And I leave it in until the next day I do the treatment again. I try to do a cap full of each product and slightly more water. I did enough to put all throughout my hear and scalp. I also make sure I do this in the middle of the day or in the morning so I'm not sleeping with wet or oily hear. But just in case I sleep with a hand towel covering my pillow. The product does BURN and its a GOOD BURN. I noticed a few people saying it did not burn. It either did burn but not enough for them or not at all...if its NOT BURNING then your doing SOMETHING WRONG. I believe for optimal results you should put this on and cover it with a shower cap. I covered mine with a terry cloth liner inside my shower cap and not just a plastic one (because it was the only one i had). Also I did not feel a burn for the first few minutes applying it and leaving it on (I thought this crap didn't work) UNTIL I put the shower cap on and now its hot all over. GREAT PRODUCT>>>>>BUY IT!!! Only thing I do hate is that it came packaged horribly, some of the cream was all over the paper and the bottle it self. Package it better please!! And screw the lid SHUT!

Ok I am going to be perfectly honest. The first time I tried it I didn't feel any heat on my head. I massaged it into my scalp left it on for 10 mins and I didnt feel anything. I was feeling a little bad, like aww man I got gypt. But I figured maybe I need more time, but I had things to do, and while rinsing it, it made my hair so silky so I wasn't that disappointed. I got out of the shower and I guess I didn't the product out or maybe I just had really hot water that I couldnt feel it until 5 minutes after my shower. I was sitting at my computer and I started feeling the heat. When people say heat, they mean it. I thought people were "confusing" it for the cooling feeling peppermint does, you know kind of like icey hot, but no, I have to give credit where it is due- they know what they're talking about. The second time I tried it i didn't just massage it into my scalp i used it like i was washing my hair with the conditioner, meaning I was scratching my scalp with my nails and sure and this time I had the time to let it sit for 30 mins, but I didn't need to wait that long. I felt that heat in 5 minutes, plus I used 2 plastic caps.. I don't yet know if it will make my hair grow but reading about cayenne pepper and making your own cayenna pepper oil to make it grow I believe it will and the heat is in there so I feel that if you feel it "working" then its going to work. Wish there was more product but I like the idea of making my own now.

Its a great conditioner, wouldn't say I've notice a lot of growth since using. No tingly sensation at root but smells pleasant.
