What about the synthetic, inorganic materials in makeup? Are we in the holistic community filtering out and eliminating that too? Sincerely, a 61 years young relaxed hair, non-makeup wearer.

Good gosh & What the heck - seems like you need a magnifying glass and a pair of spectacles to buy a bottle of shampoo, conditioner, hair products or any toiletries it seems. Who is gonna remember what not to buy while standing in the hair shop aisle wihile staff members peep round the corner or pretend to neating a shelf. What are your thoughts on natural black soap O bought it a couple of times while in Senefal , West Africa who knows when I'll go back. Thanks for this video and pronouncing those long ass words.

I have been useing Mielle for a while now.And my hair always feels dry and itchy after using The products.But i was blaming it on being pre menopausal. Now i see that it has been these products smh.What are you all using on your hair now,Because i have no clue now😢

Excellent video ❤.

I’m disappointed bcuz Maine choice sold her company n I had to find something else. Found this n gotta find something else!!!

I should’ve known when I seen it at family dollar …..so what happened to y’all ? Cuz I like the drops

When I first came upon Mielle, and the line was getting the most hype from off of influencers and individuals that were celebrity friends. I chose to try out a few products, out of curiousity, even though I knew that the line was started by someone who had a medical background on the nursing field. But, I take full responsibility for choosing to give the few lines that I did buy from the line a try. I came to understand that the line is based off of “hype”. Also, there was nothing within the products that were very impressive overall. I only liked the Avocado Moisturizing Hair Milk that they offer, which is apart of their original collection of products initially launched. I am referring to the original version of that product only. But, I eventually moved on from the line, and didn’t have it on my radar to even care to buy products from the line anymore, until they launched their Sea Moss Collection. I chose to try a few other products from the line, hoping that I would actually be more impressed this 2nd time around. I bought their Rosemary Mint Styling Creme, Rosemary Mint Drops, reformulate version of their Avocado Hair Milk, and their Honey &’Ginger Edge Control again, after things with it going rancid after a short while W’s supposed to have been fully resolved. I will say, Mielle is not getting a 3rd chance from me. Not very impressed at all with the line. Doesn’t live up to the hype. The ones that honestly made this line super popular and misled others into believing that it is truly a line that will be absolutely life-changing for one’s natural hair are the ones celebrity friends and the paid influencers. I have walked completely away from entertaining these influencers promoting a whole bunch of stuff that isn’t needed. These people care more about their pockets and the free stuff and money they get from these brands and the attention and exposure, than the overall safety of the products that they are promoting to the public in general and not caring about the harmful side effects to one’s health that a lot of these hair care products have done and are still doing, Also the original name being Mielle Organics was something that I couldn’t understand how it was allowed to get away with on the 1st pls e, because one of the products are certified organic, and putting a level of herbal ingredients into a product doesn’t automatically make a product organic either. Truthfully is there a major difference with Mielle’s products that what was already out there on the market before their products started being sold to the masses? No. The same can be said about these celebrity hair care lines, because their no better as well. Oh, and complaints against Mielle had been rolling in before the owner of Mielle ever sold their company. However, it is up to all of us consumers to throughly research a product deeply before buying it. Because, one’s health is at stake. Either you choose to deeply value your health 1st and foremost or following these influencers and buying a ton of hair care products filled with toxic ingredients that should be avoided at all costs. Plus, it is up to consumers to gain professional expertise on how to best take care and manage both their hair and scalp’s environment in order for healthy hair growth to be achieved and successfully retained, so that one can see their hair thrive at it’s maximum potential. No one should ever put their everything into a hair care line, if you don’t know how to properly maimed your hair and scalp in the best way over overall. Much good luck to all on their healthy hair journeys! I sincerely mean that from the heart ❤️!

Deva curl is now in dollar stores 😂😂, I tried the trial years ago and it made my hair dry I didn’t even finish it all it went straight to the TRASH. I am not one to support black lines just because it says so. I do my research many of them also put up a facade to hook us in. I was never drawn to MIELLE, guess that was my spirit protecting me. I was making my own gel at one point. I have found a few great brands here in Canada (Canadian made) and will stick with them unless they change.

People should begin to accept their hair as it is, and stop straightening it.

It’s so interesting how products work differently on people. I was loosing my hair due to health issues when I purchased this rosemary oil. I cut it down to a pixie and started using this rosemary oil. My hair flourished so much and so quickly that I had to keep cutting it down to keep it looking nice.

The ingredient Silica in the product is Silicone Dioxide which is also found in many vitamins is a bad chemical. I avoid it.

I literally yesterday saw a little advertisement saying Mielle Organics trying to sell products so they do still use that name as well.

Thank you Beautiful 🌹 for an excellent understanding into Mielle content and connection💯💕💯

Thanks so much for this video , because it has verified my assessment of my hair loss since using Mielle products.

Lol and I for sure just bought this for my waves

I briefly touched the subject, you went in depth with a lot of research. Much respect. Love the video...keep it up. ❤

This is an attack on the afro community they hate us and this is done on purpose

This NEEDS more attention! Commenting in hopes of boosting the algorithm!

Precisely why I went back to DIYs. I only make and use what I make. Good job with this video!

For a LONG time I thought my hair was coming out from my change in hair color and change in city as I was starting my masters program when she sold her company. So I am so grateful I couldn’t always afford them because lord knows how much hair I could have lost while being under so many other stressors. Lord have mercy. I want to sue so bad. Grateful that I am also a hair enthusiast and mostly prefer making my own products that I now will be selling soon, but this whole thing really shook me and made increase my focus on getting my line out. Success to me would be if only people in my city brought it. I’d still be good. I’m not selling to those corporate devils who don’t give a fuck about Black hair or Black people. So sorry for all the losses so many of us experienced from this. God Bless and cover us in this time and protect our health. Amen.

Mielle hasn’t been 💯 organic since at least 2019. That is when I stopped using it because it was causing extreme itching and dry roots. I noticed then that they had taken the “organic” moniker off their products and it was just “Mielle” that’s when I figured they either changed ingredients or sold the company. My hair thinned at the crow and I haven’t used it since.

Great video 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Please be sure to help manage expectations with regards to potential compensation, if any, from a class action lawsuit which is often nominal. Cash refunds on the actual products regardless of how much was used or not may be more beneficial financially even while pursuing the class action with intent to hopefully bring greater awareness to and change in ingredients and practice at the brand's expense and not to be passed onto the consumers. And folk remember, our natural hair is not foreign or crazy complicated. KISS: Keep it simple sis. Be well.🕊

Thanks for helping to advance our community. 'Organics' was removed prior to the merger and the founder maintains there are no ingredient changes; hence, the alleged issues reflect on their brande and not P&G. We must pivot from victim and do our own due diligence. Our health maintenance is one of our important 'black jobs'. Health over wealth and certainly over length. Be well and be sure o Vote.

I’ve watched several videos about the recent claims against Mielle, and most are just a commentary or review. This is the first time I’m seeing a detailed breakdown of the actual ingredients and how they can be harmful. Excellent work! I’ve only used a moisturizer/hair milk from this company (few years ago), and don’t remember any issues. I’ve considered trying a conditioner, but now I know I’ll be steering clear altogether.

Thank you for the research, i used the mint deep conditioner and noticed hair loss, was wondering why?? I purchased a 2nd one only used once prior to finding this out 😢, returned to Target

I COMPLETLY forgot that “organics” used to be in the name! They took that off of all their products and the fact that they were no longer organic flew under the radar🤯

Thank you for the reminder. I have been using the oil, and the grease....

The problem is we view any issues we experience in isolation and think it's our own problem and not caused by any specific product especially when the advertising says something to the contrary. My daughter had a lot of hair loss and itchy flaky scalp after using the shampoo but her hair is sensitive so we put it down to that. I had issues but nothing severe. However i was discontent with the performance and when the issues became apparent by other users i promptly binned it! Thank goodness for posts like this and social media in general to get the message out!

To be honest, and this is towards bw/bp in general...I'm tired of blk ppl and the weak shit...from the moment bw found out the company was sold, all purchases should have stopped...we know they always change the ingredients, once taken over...I hope at some point we get some sense as a ppl and move accordingly...just a sad how we move...it's embarrassing at this point!!

😮 I see a class action in the future.

Thoughout the great promotion for this product, I just kept looking at this product, but something was saying to me, leave it alone, I make my own mixers now, I'm very happy, I am a recovering CCCA.

I'll watch this video again and again to understand the deep message. Much appreciated.

I recently went back to using camille rose and my hair is slowly healing.

Thanks for this. Imagine, trading harmful chemicals from relaxers to unknowingly using them on our natural hair…

I tried that hair oil once and it had my scalp on FIRE 🔥 immediately!!! I had to wash my hair right away and this was BEFORE they sold to P&G

I hope your video goes viral!

I have been seeing a lot on Mielle products causing issues. I can not wait for the Class Action Lawsuit to hit my email or mailbox because I will definitely sign up. Thank God I have only used the Rosemary Mint Serum drops like 3 times in a 3 year period, before the owners sold their companies to major corporation. Thankfully I did not suffer extreme hair loss, but still I want my cut!

Great video! I’m going to have to save this one and rewatch it because it was so much information 😊and thank you so much for the shout out I’m going to share this video on my community tab 🤎🤎🤎

Thanks for sharing on google up any product to see what are the harmful chemicals.

There are a lot of companies that have toxic chemicals in their products for our hair... Don't just go after one company!

Hi just wondering if you sell your own sunscreen? I’d be willing to buy 🙏🏻😇

I agree. I don’t like the idea that our hair strands are dead, just because they don’t contain “nerves”. Our hair is so important. The Bible speaks about it way too much for it not to be. I’ve been wanting to use all natural products on my hair and scalp, and I finally had a wash day that I did just that, with the exception of using beeswax to seal my ends. My hair looks great, but I think I’m going to lay off the essential oils, in light of the whole Mielle hair oil issues. I’ve been using rosemary oil in my DIY scalp oil, and my hair has been shedding as well. BUT my son is 13 months so some of this has been postpartum. I stopped using any oil on my scalp at this point, but I still use Shea butter and castor oil, which inevitably gets onto my scalp. It’s nerve wrecking when you’re trying to figure out what could be causing hair issues. But with prayer, observation and patience, we certainly can. 💕🌸

Thanks for posting :)

Don’t play we can be out there protesting . We already have a limited amount of things we can use in our community for our hair

You're right that I've never seen a person with long curly permed hair 🤔

Well when you have dreads you don't wash your hair regularly that will happen too
