That haircut and color is so flattering on Amanda. Mell did an A++ job on that cut. I know Amanda tended to go lighter, but darker really works on her.

It worked really well for my type 3c-4A mixed hair which is also on the thick side. My hair has never been dyed or had heat used on it so thats definitely a difference from them. There are many variables that decide if a product is going to work or not for an individual. Its been 3 months and my hair has shown massive improvement in frizz, split ends, and tangling. I even skipped this month’s trim.

I've had white hairs on sections of my head since I was five, so maybe not exactly the same thing, but they don't tend to ever follow a curl pattern, even if you put them in rollers or heat curl them to force them that way. They're also a bit odd in tnat they're never the same porosity as the rest of my hair, they're like an obstinate child and decide to be the opposite of whatever the rest of my hair is.

Thank you for this! I've never had a relaxer and have spent my entire life trying to figure out these curls of mine. Growing up in the late 80s and 90s, there was nothing available in my small town except chemical straightening, which my Mom strictly prohibited (grateful she did NOT let me do it).I get so many compliments on my hair, and it's because your tips and breakdowns make it easy to apply to my hair. I also appreciate your honesty about these products. ❤

This line has been working really well for my 3c-4a thick curls. My hair is thick and weighs down fast so I loved the thinner consistencies. Ive had a huge improvement in tangles, split ends, and frizz. I even got to skip my trim this month. I only use the curl cream in my hair, i cant stand any crunch. This line has become my holy grail.

I would love to have you do a dedicated unscented review series. I appreciate you always call out scents and if something is sensitive friendly, but that's not the same as a dedicated dive into unscented products. My allergies to scents can mean trying a new product triggers a migraine that can put me out of work for a few days, and there's a lot of people like me out there. I'm fortunate enough to be able to afford doing the trial and error process to find things that work for me, but that's hundreds (even thousands) of wasted dollars that not everyone has. Its also hundreds of hours of research. Appreciate you and everything this channel has done for my hair. 🧡

Happy Texture Thursday! Unrelated to Fenty, but I did recently order the Verb curl gel mousse, curl cream, and deep conditioner and my hairs and I are in love. I wasn’t sure about the gel mousse because I didn’t think it would provide enough hold, but I should have known better than to doubt Mell. My hair has never looked more hydrated and defined! I already know I’ll be repurchasing all 3 products once I run out!

Thank you so much for your review! I have sensitive skin, so I don’t think these products will be for me, but I loved your thorough and honest review. An idea for a future video - it would be great to see tips for styling hair when you have multiple curl and/or wave patterns, especially balancing products with different amounts of hold and shine. I have both loose waves and ringlet curls, and sometimes I struggle with deciding which products to use. If I use a higher hold gel to get the front pieces defined, it can make my waves look stringy. But if I use a different product for the back, sometimes I get different amounts of shine because I’m using a product with less hold. Any tips or thoughts are appreciated!
