Both of these products are by the Liquid Gold product line. I have tried both equally for a consecutive month so I thought I would do a compare and contrast on the two products and share any pros and cons that I found using them.
First up: Liquid Gold Growth Oil
This oil grew my hair in about 3 1/2 weeks! I got about an inch from using it consistently every other day.
PROS: It works! You will definitely get growth. It's fairly inexpensive compared to other growth aids online. Shipping is quick. The smell is pretty good.
CONS: Since it is an oil it does run down the side of my face and get my scarves really oily and so do my pillows. The bottle is 4oz but you can order an 8oz bottle for a little more.
Second up: Green Magic Hair Growth Cream
I have been using this cream for about 3 weeks and have gained about 3/4" from consistent use of the product.
PROS: Again it works! I have gained growth from using it. Being that it is a cream it is easier to apply and does a good job of keeping my new growth moisturized as well. No funny smell (Smells limey lol)\
CONS: A little more expensive. It's $13.95 before shipping for the 4oz container. There are no larger sizes available for this product either so you have to be mindful of how much you're using.
I am really tracking my growth from November through the end of the year to see how much growth I get from the Green Magic total. Along with being consistent with the products I've been consistent with my regimen. Washing, deep conditioning, moisturizing, sealing, and protective styling. I don't think products grow your hair but they do help aid in growth along with proper hair maintenance that you set in place. This means you can't simply slap something on your scalp and not wash your hair or protect your ends and expect to have hair flowing like Rapunzel. It just doesn't work that way.
So I've set up goals for myself and plan to reach them each month along with my long-term hair goals.
I'm ready to GROW!!
This is a blog which will contain ALL of the many things I am doing to care for my hair, skin, and nails. I will also throw in occasional fun facts or ideas that may be useful or simply interesting to others. Questions, comments, or concerns are greatly appreciated and I will do my best to provide accurate information! Thanks for viewing!
