Appreciate you out here delivering natural hair content even though you’re experiencing postpartum shedding. You’re a real one 🫶🏿

[@FayeInTheCity]

Thank you my dear!!!

[@whitneyverley8163]

Finally a review focusing on the use of the product instead on whining the majority of video over the wait time (unlike so many others NHCC I’ve seen over the last couple days). Your hair looked so juicy afterward ❤❤❤.

[@wendyc6638]

I’m so glad you stayed away from the complaining about the shipping and focused on reviewing the product. That’s why I follow your account. You keep it about the products and offer great application advice for using them. So glad you are doing well and I see those baby hairs showing up and showing out! Looking good! ❤

[@denisedavis2500]

I've learned through trial and error to order all of my Melanin products from Ulta to avoid delays. I love the product and she still gets her coins

[@tekoahcoriel5394]

Y’all…..ima just say this….the price might throw you off but it is WELL WORTH IT! Especially for my LOW-POROSITY girls 🤩 I have suuuper dense, low porosity hair and the moment I applied this I knew it would be a re-purchase. You do NOT need a ton of product with this one….it literally sank into my hair immediately which hardly ever happens with products. I did use heat but honestly, it was WELL absorbed before I was even under the heat cap. If you are low-porosity PLEASE give this one a try. Also my hair felt strong but it absolutely felt like butter at the SAME damn time 😱 this is a new holy grail for me just like the leave-in and oil.

[@nappyfro6243]

Is it a weekly use type of DC or once a month vibe? I noticed it has more than one type of protein, also its for my 3 years. So im looking into getting some good hair stuff for her

[@rahshida]

i’m literally outside of ulta trying to decide if i’m going to buy it. your comment just helped me decide to go inside and purchase

[@MsElitist]

I have low porosity dense hair too. I usually squeeze my hair dry and then add conditioner for deep conditioning because my hair will reject the conditioner if there’s too much water on my strands. Low porosity hair is so extra chile. 😂

[@tekoahcoriel5394]

@@nappyfro6243 I use this once per month only because I like to rotate my deep conditioners. I think it could be an every week deep treatment. Having said that, my hair is not sensitive to proteins.

Faye, as a longtime viewer of KZbin, I have to say this is one of the absolute best videos I have ever seen. You are true and authentic, no drama, no pretense, and so real. Thank you for your quality review and for making a relatable, unscripted, and enjoyable video! I purchased this PDC and received it a couple of weeks ago, but tonight is the night that I will try it for the first time. Sooooo looking forward to it! Taking a work break to watch this was great, but I will be back during lunch and over the weekend to check out more of your channel!

[@staceyfulcher3714]

Love the honesty when using products. It’s been a long time since I’ve had to care of my own hair and I definitely need to know which products work without spending my money on junk. On the hunt for a new stylist, my current stylist is trippin and it seems like until I can find a new person, it’s back to doing my own hair.

I'm am NOT thrilled by the price, either! I've NEVER paid that much for a hair cair product! However, you do make a good point about how much you get, so it's moved from a definite "No!" to a maybe sale/Black Friday buy.

[@godschild9643]

Remember you are getting 16 ounces so it's really $16 for 8 ounces

I’ll try it when I take my braids out in a few weeks.

Thank you! And I hope you enjoy the product too!

[@catherinebutler3003]

I enjoyed your video and I’m happy that the treatment worked well for you. It looks healthy and hydrated. You didn’t too bad with the amount of application, I’ve seen much more used than that. Adding water is key when applying products. I’ve always had so much hair but, my mom never used the amount of conditioner that I see people using on KZbin. And our hair was properly conditioned. I received my MHC preorder the other day along with one of their head wraps and a lollipop. I feel that’s a good gesture and it’s much appreciated. I’m looking forward to using it and hoping that I’ll be happy as well with my results. Thanks for sharing your review. Peace and blessings! 🙏🏾❤️

[@TracyD2]

I want to try this but I can wait. I don’t need to get lusty over it or anything else. I used to be like that. 😬

[@TheRacqgrl769]

This is the second or third video I've watched on the product. I've been feeling some kind of way about it because it was the end of September when I finally received it. I don't know that I even want to try it. Asked my daughter if she was interested, so I may just send it to her. I don't use a lot of products and primarily am an Olaplex girl, so the fact that I even wanted to try this was a big deal. I do have the other products she's made, though I haven't even cracked the seal on the shampoo. On a different note, I feel glad for you that your hair is growing back. You're beautiful, regardless, yet I understand how our hair is our crown. I am healing from scarring alopecia, so I know the struggle. Thank you for bringing a smile to my day. I love your content.

[@FayeInTheCity]

All I’ll say is your feelings are valid. I didn’t get into it much in the video because I didn’t want to be one of the ones who use “mess” for views but trust me: If my pre-order was held up for months, I’d feel exactly as you do.

[@alaynachina976]

Yours is the first review of this that I watched to the end. Everyone else spent too long ranting about the pre-order🤣

[@theinvisiblewoman5709]

I just bought this product. Haven’t used it yet. But I’ve seen some reviews where they use it how they use any deep conditioner and some where they use it per instructions. I’ve noticed the less positive reviews have been from the ones who deviate from their normal application process. So I will take your advice and use it how I usually use deep conditioners.

Hey, Chile!

[@prissNcurlss]

Hi Faye! Seeing your hands so easily glide through your hair after using that shampoo definitely has me wanting to give this another go. My hair stiffened up upon contact and o applied to soaking wet hair in the shower.

[@FayeInTheCity]

Oh wow!!!! What shampoo did you use? At first I was going to use the Melanin shampoo but I switched to the HH cosmetics black soap shampoo because it’s not moisturizing. I wonder did that help my experience

[@Nillawafers90]

The shampoo is clarifying and only meant to go on your scalp per the bottle. But the leave-in restores the moisture if you do strip your hair along with your scalp.

[@naturallyyeesh3500]

I’m not sure about the ingredients, but check out Crecepelo wash system. It’s a Dominican product geared towards natural hair and focused on hair growth. I have used your wash day and styling routine for my entire 2 year big chop natural journey. Crecepelo actually means Grow Hair and it’s very moisturizing. It may help with your postnatal shedding. If you do it, please do a video. I love you and your videos. You have helped me a lot in my journey. Anddddd your baby is a pumpkin pie. ❤️
