Myth or miracle #3: Mane and tail shampoo and conditioner

Tuesday, May 6

Hello guys!

Today i´ll write a little about a really popular brand for hair growth: mane and tail



The mane and tail shampoo and conditioner got really popular a few years ago because it was supposed to increase hair growth like i said before, also it was a really different product because it was meant mostly for horses hair and who doesn´t want that thick long hair (kind of) that horses have?


Let´s talk about what the brand says 
Well, now i´ll tell you what i think of it :

i´ve tried a lot of mane and tail versions but this time i´m talking about the first that came out, the original.

The shampoo leaves your hair squeaky clean which is probably one of the ways that it is supposed to increase hair growth, it also leaves the hair really shiny.

The conditioner on the other side is not very moisturizing, i didn´t like it.

Now, hair growth wise none of this products made my hair grow any faster  they just left my hair clean and shiny , that was about it.

So in my opinion this products are just another hair growth myth.

I´ve seen a lot of girls saying that it works wonders, what do you guys think?

Myth or miracle #2: Crece pelo boe

Sunday, March 30

Hello!

Today i´m gonna do my second myth or miracle and this one is about a pretty well raved product from dominican republic, crece pelo by boe 





I started using this product two months ago because i saw really good results on the internet specially one from the brazilian blogger duda fernandes.

i started by measuring my hair before anything, like i always do, then i kept using it washing my hair 4 times a week with the shampoo and the mask.

first time using it (shampoo and mask)  i noticed my hair kind of poofy not frizzy just "poofy" but i kept using it , then after a month i started to see my hair really dry but really really dry with ends like this 

I kid you not! this is a microscopic view but all the ends of my hair looked like that and no, i 
don´t use heat on my hair and i haven´t been color treating my hair for a while so i  said to my self:  
ok i´m gonna finish the two months to see the results , today i measured my hair and my hair is 1cm SHORTER! than it was before, i mean ?!! i heard that this product really dries your hair but also i heard that it was supposed to make it grow longer not shorter!

This is shocking to me because on the blog that i told you earlier the girl shows a really beautiful long shiny hair, i know her hair was already that shiny and pretty  without the crece pelo but in the photos of her review you can see all the growth that she got! and she even says that it works like a charm!

On other reviews the girls say that it have worked BUT i can´t see any particular growth. anyway i guess every hair is different right?

For me it didn´t worked and i still have half a bottle of shampoo and almost all the mask because i got the bigger one and a little goes a long way so i think i´m gonna give it to a friend for her to try out so i can review this product with other type of hair.

I personally would not recommend it but if you want to give it a try you sure can!

Have you tried it? let me know

Myth or miracle #1 : Bomb shampoo ( shampoo bomba)

Wednesday, February 26


Hi guys, long time no see..

Today i´m here with a big hair growth recipe that is  very known in Brazil, it is called "shampoo bomba" which claims to increase hair growth by 2 inches a month by mixing a normal shampoo with monovin a ( which is pure vitamin A for animals..) and liquid bepanthol, sounds really promising right ? well let´s get close into what this  does :

Salt free shampoo:
Because the salt will oxidize de vitamin A.

Monovin A:
Is a vitamin A super- concentrate used in horses, the reason why it is used on this shampoo is because it stops shedding, leaves the hair shinier and grows new hair.

Liquido bepanthol:
It contains panthenol (vitamin B5)


If you look for this recipe on the internet you´ll find a lot of good things about this, many girls rave about this but personally i think it is just "the placebo effect" also it is dangerous to use a product that is supposed to be for animals on you scalp but let me tell you something, I already tried this shampoo  but it was for the sake of the post right? haha anyway.. i measured my hair and i didn´t noticed any diferent rate of growth than the normal, my hair was really soft and shiny but this was because of the bepanthol which is really good for hair, that´s probably the reason why Bayer made liquid bepanthol for hair and skin right? 

For conclusion i DON´T recommend you trying this recipe and if you are gonna do it consult a doctor first.
