I USED MELANIN HAIR CARE FOR AN ENTIRE MONTH.. Heres How I Feel About Each Product

[@Brittaneee]

Definitely loving the line a lot more after a month ! Sometimes all it takes is a little trial and error 😌

[@specialkd5365]

I like that this is a follow-up, I always wonder if people still love the product after using it for a while.

[@Brittaneee]

Im always wondering too lol, so I’m glad that it was helpful 😌

[@kapparhotau181]

The buttercreme yes definitely it's great as far as moisturizing. Still not crazy about the Leave-in, I prefer it as a DC but in the summer only not winter as it's not moisturizing enough. Only tried the shampoo twice. It doesn't feel stripping but it's not a moisturizing shampoo.

[@R0yalBeauty77]

I've been using for over a year and I love it.

[@suupanoova]

I bought the shampoo, conditioner and oil. The oil I use on my body. The shampoo is ok. Conditioner doesn’t do much for me. I do love supporting black woman owned businesses though

[@Brittaneee]

I definitely recommend trying the leave in conditioner the way that I did, or as a deep conditioner with heat if you haven’t yet. I felt a lot better using it that way. Otherwise, I think it’s awesome that you still support 😌

[@oslowcloud]

I do 1 pump of the leave in and a squirt of oil and use that to moisturize or refresh my hair. I've barely made a dent in the twisting cream yet!

[@tanyamhami]

I barely made a dent in the cream as well!!!

[@sheenatheresa3945]

ITS THE INGREDIENTS FOR ME 🥰

[@Brittaneee]

!!! Clean ingredients make me happy

[@tequilashots875]

I appreciate the detailed review. I definitely noticed that you don’t need a lot of her product to get good results. I used the elongating cream on my dirty hair and whoa!!! She wasn’t lying! My twists have never been that long with a moisturizing product in my hair!! I’m gonna pick up the leave in conditioner. I might pass on the shampoo because I hate that super squeaky clean feel on my hair.

[@Brittaneee]

my hair LOVES the cream 😭

[@nowandzenify]

You really get the bang for your buck. A little goes a long way with Whitney's hair product. Not the nicest or most honest review though from the person who owns the channel

Great review and love how you didn't just write it off, but made adjustments to see how it best worked for your hair! I l love that LI and cream!

[@oliviarogers9617]

The shampoo is the best. Especially having braids ( box braids) and when its wash time it really gets your scalp sooo clean! And no residue build up stuck in your braids. And my hairs actually growing and doesn't leave my scalp crusty and dry after.

[@Brittaneee]

Definitely love the shampoo for those much needed deep cleans 🙌🏽

[@125loopy]

Yes! I braids my hair up every 3 to 4 weeks so the shampoo is perfect. And the twisting cream has my hair so moisturized!

[@BeautyIn4C]

I have used the Melanin Leave in and TEC for more than a month and i absolutely love them!i like the leave in immediately after rinsing out the deep conditioner then a little butter on my ends..then the TEC the following day with a little leave in and butter to seal..i get a lot of stretch and volume with it!i have the shampoo will try on a later date as well as the oil.Am glad you did this F/U..oh i never had flakes with the cream and do not like it on wet hair💇

[@Brittaneee]

Aw yay I’m glad that you’re liking the products as well & just a little bit of trial and error lol. I have been flake free ever since 😌

Remember this line is based on someone else hair needs.

[@mckenzieugwuonye]

The melanin twisting butter has a nutty aroma, like a sweet nutty scent, as all shea butter is supposed to smell like I guess, well at first it did. But then after a while, the scent faded a bit and I think it's because it had already been opened thus losing its scent.

[@Brittaneee]

Yeah both times there was no smell, but the “no smell” was different lol if that makes sense. You described it perfectly

[@mckenzieugwuonye]

@@Brittaneee ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊🥰🥰!!

[@lovinaokoronkwo9142]

Wait so the seal on your twisting cream was open too? I am afraid to use it and it barely smells like anything.

[@5pctLowBattery]

Just got it from ulta yesterday... so far I really like the multi use leave in. Getting use to the spearmint smell. Loosens my knots. Detangling was not a pain. The shampoo however, I might return. Not enough lather, scalp&hair didn’t feel clean...had to go in with my regular shampoo on 3rd wash. Will give it another try. I want it to work :(

[@Lifeasaamari]

What’s your regular shampoo?

[@5pctLowBattery]

@@Lifeasaamari I did return the melanin shampoo and bought more leave in. My regular shampoo is Aussie. Or Mo Knows Hair, but it has a strong smell.

[@kapparhotau181]

Yea I had no issues with flakes using the buttercreme but I saw a review a while back to use less as it's really thick. I also really heat it up in my hands b4 putting on my hair so it would absorb better. It's probably too heavy for low porosity so less is more with this product

[@naturalcurls4life576]

I bought the shampoo and conditioner for my locs. I like the shampoo but I’m on the fence with the conditioner. I usually sit under the steamer with my leave in, so I will try it again.

[@Brittaneee]

Yes definitely try with heat!

[@nuance10]

Do you recommend adding the oil after deep conditioner over the steamer?

[@naturalcurls4life576]

@@nuance10 After I am done steaming, I apply oil to seal in all the moisture.

[@tiffanynichols7786]

I don't really fuss over shampoos. I just want my hair clean but I did purchase the leave in and twisting cream and I loved it. My hair is really dry and this kept my hair well moisturized between washes.

[@Brittaneee]

Glad you like them as much as I do 😌

[@NinthJewel]

Thanks for sharing. I don’t think I’ll be buying this specific line only because I stay in the Uk and the shipping and taxes is ridiculous so I’ll stick to lines that are already available here

[@Brittaneee]

Of course ! ❤️ & aw man I can just imagine. Hopefully you can get your hands on them one day

[@bmb1980]

My people in the UK - If you buy the entire range you get free shipping and there is no customs fee as it is under the chargeable amount. I have just had mine delivered to London and only paid the product price.

[@NinthJewel]

@@bmb1980 thanks for this

[@nowandzenify]

It smells amazing.-the elongating crème. Maybe you had a cold that day but it is most definitely scented and pleasant

[@itsanneolive]

ooo I didn't experience any flaking at all! I really liked the shampoo bc I felt like it wasn't stripping but this is after one use so maybe that'll change in the future

[@Brittaneee]

It might not ! Everyone’s hair is different, so I hope you continue to like it 😌

[@tawannafoster2061]

You guys this product is very clean from all the products on the shelf if you don’t already download Yuka” it scans products ingredients and I was amazed the Beaty supply store sale is all products that have hash chemicals and this product right here isssssssss real vegan

[@selena9824]

Very detailed. I truly appreciate reviews like this. I haven't tried the line but will in the near future. Thanks for the info!

[@gabrielle7540]

I want to try the oil as a daily moisturizer. Like maybe mist some water and seal my hair with the oil. What do you recommend?

[@Timetrae]

Enjoyed the video. TFS!! I love the leave in as a deep conditioner. Haven’t gotten the shampoo yet. Love the style cream. It definitely has a learning curve.

[@Brittaneee]

Aw thank YOU for watching ❤️ & highly agree that the leave in is amazing when you deep condition/let in sit in your hair.

[@jazminbey7188]

Ive been natural for 3 years and im still trying to find the right fit for me .😢

[@Brittaneee]

I completely understand! 😩 my hair has changed a lot since this video so I had to go back to the drawing board lol

I use the oil for my hair and skin. It is the only thing I have found that got rid of my dry skin. I love it.

[@Brittaneee]

That’s amazing 😩🙌🏽 love when I find products that finally work lol

[@happylife1080]

One thing I’ve been wondering about is whether the elongating cream can be used to moisturize my hair as I wear a bun.what do you recommend after using it. I’m not that big on wearing twist outs often.

[@Brittaneee]

I’ve actually never tried that! 🤔 I might have to now

[@ossier2796]

I’ve only used the cream for a wash and go, no flaking. I’ve tried the oil, love it and I’ve tried the leave-in and loved it too but the spearmint fragrance was too much for me. I haven’t tried the shampoo.

[@Brittaneee]

Yeah the spearmint can be a lot, but since I only use the shampoo once a month, my other shampoo and deep conditioners kinda tone down the smell since they smell completely different

[@candrathomas106]

I really liked the shampoo and the leave in. The leave in for sure...I just couldn't take the MINT everyday all day 😩 very loud but a performer.

[@Brittaneee]

I completely agree with the mint smell. I find that when I use a shampoo and deep conditioner with a completely different smell, it tones down the mint A LOT. Maybe give that a try 😌

My hair is always really wet when I use products. I haven’t tried the shampoo yet. Love the cream and I loved the leave-in but spearmint fragrance too strong for me. I liked the oil but I don’t use much oil in my hair or in my scalp. Overall I live her products.

[@Brittaneee]

I definitely agree with the spearmint thing .. after a while it can be a little bit much. Overall though I like the products as well 😌

[@katrinablackman183]

Thank your for the detailed review. I just purchased the Leave In and the Twisting Cream. I'm in Alaska, very cold. So I'm hoping this product keep my hair soft and will hold the moisture.

[@Brittaneee]

Of course ! 😌 & wow Alaska, I’m interested in hearing if it keeps your hair moisturized, so come back and let me know ! Lol

[@katrinablackman183]

I tried the Melanin products, I like the leave in but the twisting cream did not leave my hair moisture. So far TGIN moisture butter is perfect for the winter in Alaska. I will revisit Melanin twisting cream in the summer (that’s May for us)

[@coralrose6506]

I love all of melanin care products and always recommend them

[@Brittaneee]

Same!

[@lovinaokoronkwo9142]

Brittaneee, I honestly don't think I'll be using the leave-in for its intended purpose. I'll use it as a detangler because my twist-out looked dry as opposed to when I use my Mielle Pomegranate and Honey leave-in which leaves my hair defined and bouncy. The twisting cream doesn't smell like anything, and when it arrived, the seal was open. Is this normal? I am kind of scared to use it to be honest. Like why doesn't it smell like anything, and why was it open?

[@Brittaneee]

Yeah the leave in is OKAY, but definitely better if I let it sit in my hair as I shower prior to styling. & my styling cream was sealed because I purchased it from the store. To be honest I ordered some hair products the other day, and they arrived all busted up and product was spilling everywhere lol. It could have been the delivery process 🤔 they are not gentle with packages at all so maybe that’s why? And yeah it definitely doesn’t smell like anything

[@lovinaokoronkwo9142]

@@Brittaneee I will have to try that. I was thinking that it not working well may have something to do with my porosity. Maybe it's the protein in it not sure. About the damaged packaging, it's happened to me several times. I hope you got your money back! I ordered some hair oil, and the glass arrived broken and the oil was all over the box. I got a refund. The delivery people really just toss people's packages around without a care in the world. And I believe the twisting cream just wasn't sealed when they put it in the container. That's why I was worried like what if they put lotion or something in here, and not the actual product lol. Maybe I'm just paranoid. I'm gonna take it to Ulta and see if they have a container that's actually sealed because you never know.

I helped my daughter apply the leave-in conditioner twice and both times it softened.and removed the nail polish off my nails. The polish is regular nail polish (not gel nail). Anybody else have this issue? Also the oil caused me and my son scalp irritation and acne. I’m not sure what oil we are allergic to. Anybody else have this problem?

[@Brittaneee]

Omg I thought I was the only one that lost their nail polish ! .. I never mentioned it because I thought I was going crazy, but I’ve never had anything EVER remove my nail polish. That’s definitely strange now that I know I’m not the only one.

I’ve been using the oil because all this heat is making my scalp dry, and I never have a dry scalp or dandruff. This shit has my scalp so dry and flaky!!! I cannot stand it. It’s definitely not for me.

[@1ycj]

The leave in works fine for my hair, but the fragrance is unbearable imo. Can’t use it unless she comes up with a unscented version.

[@Brittaneee]

I agree 😩 I can’t even chew spearmint gum so it’s not that it’s bad , I just don’t like spearmint lol. But it’s a great leave-in so I try to incorporate somewhere in my routine here and there.

After I got saved, I started and continue to get a stronger relationship with God everything got and is getting better. My thinking, my relationships with people, my life and I have someone who I can rely on which is God. Romans 10:9-11 (KJV) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. John 3:16 (KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
