I started using Mega-tek at the beginning of the year. When I take down my weave next week I will try to remember to take pics and give some feedback on how it has been working for me. But as of now I have been doing this: Apply oil mix every other day (Lisa's hair elixir, castor oil, jojoba oil, and coconut oil mix) Megatek directly to the scalp Mon and Friday Ovation Cell Therapy on Wednesday to prep for wash on Thurs. Wash every week (Thurs) with Joico Moisture recovery Shampoo & Conditioner Deep condition with Mizani Hydrafuse Style and moisturizer hair with aforementioned mix
My hair has been drinking up all the moisture I give which is good for the protein-moisture balance.

Those are the ingredients in my bottle, bought it 4 months ago from Tailgator (UK online store). The bottle is black with blue writings and it has a 20 years commemoration logo. My hair did not feel the difference... but I do Aphogee Two Steps treatment every 2-3 months.

I’ve been using Megatek on and off for over two years. Initially
I was using the product undiluted on my scalp every night, I noticed that the
product was causing excessive shedding. After that I started using the product
diluted in castor oil/jojoba oil mix every other day only. Have absolutely no
issues using Megatek like that, additionally I mixed it with my deep
conditioner. I think Megatek is a great product when used correctly, you just
need to find out what works for your hair.
Formula: Deionized water, stearalkonium chloride, glycerol
stearate, cetearyl alcohol (derived from palm oil), castor oil, ethoxylate(40),
tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E), panthenol, hydrolyzed keratin protein,
cetrimonium chloride, tetrasodium EDTA, DMDM hydantoin, methylparaben,
propylparaben, fragrance.

I thought someone said that there were things taken out of the new formula? Unless I missed ingredients breakdown
