Please forgive my non-curly contribution. I just wanted to point out that a lot of the advice in CGM is good advice in general for healthy hair of all types.
I follow CGM when it comes to care, but not styling techniques (eg. gel, coiling, etc). I don't use heat aside from gently blow-drying my hair in winter maybe a dozen times over two years. No sulphates, no silicones, monthly olaplex 3 treatments, and washing every five days or so. Using softer hairties, combing while wet instead of dry brushing, and braiding in place of ponytails to reduce strain on the scalp. All things I learned from this sub.
My hair is shiny and resilient. I don't struggle with excess oiliness. My ends don't split, even if I go six months or more between trims. It's so goddamn smooth, no tangles, nothing. Best hair I've ever had.
Thanks r/curlyhair, you taught me a lot.
I have straight thin hair with quite a bit of hair fall so basically my hair fall flat
Will be using a medicated dandruff shampoo as well side by side. Please recommend good ones. For now I use Medicated - Scalpe pro plus and Regular - Anti dandruff JOVEES shampoo. Should I stop regular anti dandruff shampoo and use a normal one? Is it making my dandruff worse? If you saw my last post Scalpe pro plus is not working as well.
It's relatively hard to get potassium chloride and magnesium sulphate where I live. I am about to order some online, but it might take 3-5 days for delivery.
However I want to get started on my fast immediately, so I've made some "semi-Snake Juice" to keep me going until I can source the missing ingredients. This includes water, iodised salt (sodium chloride, potassium iodate), and bi carb soda (sodium bicarbonate).
How long can I safely fast without the missing ingredients?
EDIT: Cole confirms that "you can [...] go a while without 'em".
Why do they have a bad rep? I am a stylist and a lot of shampoos including high quality proffesional lines have some form of sulphate to remove dirt and excess oils from the scalp and hair. Obviously if the sulphate is low quality and over used it can cause damage but if there is decent quality and the correct quantity then I dont understand why it would be an issue. As a stylist myself (I am an extensionist, have worked as a manager and am now getting my full licence after 12 years experience) I feel as though this is a debate that isnt really the norm in the proffesional industry. So why is everyone so scared of sulphates?
I'm on E monotherapy and my recent blood tests show my DHEA Sulphate is quite high (17.8 umol/L).
I have also been suffering from generally high levels of anxiety and regular panic attacks for the last couple months. I've never really had anxiety issues before. My endo told me that they don't know whether it's the high DHEA Sulphate causing this anxiety or if my recent anxiety and panic attacks are raising my DHEA Sulphate.
I'm also worried about these high levels of DHEA Sulphate causing masculinising effects or slowing my progress with hrt.
Is DHEA Sulphate something that Dr Powers tests for? Should I be worried that it's high? Is there a way to lower it?
Hey everyone. My uncle was prescribed Zinc Sulphate 50mg, but unfortunately he passed away. I have the entire pack (2x10 tablets) so I wondering is it okay if I take the pills like once a week? If I have to visit the doctor to do a checkup that’s just going to be a hassle here in my country so I would just give the pack away to someone who really needs it. Is the dosage really high? Also if I can take it when should I take it and how many times a week
I've started using sulphate free products and my hair doesn't look nearly as good as it did before and gets greasy. Although I only just discovered that switching to sulphate free products takes time for your hair to adjust and I have switched to my regular shampoo a few times which may have affected the process.
I just wanna know what to expect during the switch to sulphate free products and how it will benefit my hair and if it is the right decision? give details.
Hello, fellow Redditors.
My 4-month-old Galaxy A51 was sent to Samsung for diagnostics because it was not "reacting" to the charger being plugged in. It has just come back and the report states the charging port has sulphate and the warranty won't cover this according to the Samsung technician, so I will need to purchase "sub/pba" replacements.
Does anyone with experience know what type of sulphate they are referring to? How can I prevent this substance from appearing again (I have never had this exact problem on past devices)? I don't work in a chemical-filled environment, per se. Do you believe this could actually be a manufacturer issue?
Thank you very much for your insight!
A long while back I purchased some root killer to do some experiments and make some compounds with. So far I've made copper aspirinate, pure copper, aluminium hydroxide, electroplated some things and most recently I made a solution of copper(II)sulphate and sodium chloride that changes colour depending on temperature (Le chatelier's principle).
Are there any other interesting things with copper(II)sulphate? (Preferably different from growing crystals from it)
MPMD summarizes how Minoxidil is metabolized into the active Minoxidil Sulphate in the body by sulfotransferase. This is enzyme has been found to be much lower in Min non-responders, indicating that they don't respond because they can't convert Min into Mindoxidil Sulphate. Non-responders have reliable and good results with topical Minoxidil Sulphate. It has lower absorption due to a higher molecular weight. The work around has been shown to be a higher concentration, which a study showed is effective. I'm a non-responder and looking for a good vendor who will ship to Canada. Any recommendations?
Hi there I started medication a week ago, I was given a chart indicating dose times for the week where I slowly Increase my dose till I'm comfortable or I hit the limit being 30mg a day. I was told at least for the first week to trial half my dose in the morning and half at lunch which works out to be 10mg @7:00am and 10mg @12pm for now. My understanding is the main peak affects are meant to last 4-6hours I'm finding I hit 11am and the first dose is about gone and I'm flat back to scatterbrain and yet again around 4pm from the second dose, I want to hear if anyone else has tried spreading their doses out within an interval that it stops the rollarcoaster effect such as 10mg at 7am, 11am then 3pm, and how this goes for them/ how their sleep may be impacted. My main goal is to feel consistent and to be able to spend my free time after work being (4:30pm onwards in a functional state until it's time to cool off and go to bed which ideally I'd like to be asleep by 10:30pm.
Any form of ideas/advice you feel is relevant or keen to share I'm all ears even if I know it already I'm happy to hear opinions on the chance I get to be further educated.
Thank you so much for your time, you should be seeing me around here more often being a part of the community from now on 😁
PS: I'm a 20 year old Male, 70kg if this is relevant and will also be discussing with my doctor when I get the chance to see him next.
