The Monat chick just made me realize why MLMs mostly don't work in Europe - they can't come here with the argument of "paid time off", "flexibel workhours" etc. because that's normal for us here. We have paid time of, maternity leave etc.

[@elainelouve]

Very true.

[@singinbluekitty]

@@thebaldog1209 it depends a lot on the job too! like I am lucky to accumulate PTO every month, and I can save it and use it all at once if I want

[@lpronovost84]

I live in Canada and we have medical care, paid vacation of at least 2 weeks a year, medical leave...

[@melomankapl8756]

Yes, from what I see in Poland, groups of people targetted by MLMs are different than in USA. Female teenagers and young adults are Avon and Oriflame sellers. They treat it just as side job bringing them maybe 200 zlotys (50 dollars), they don't recruit, their clients are girls in their schools or universities. But I think these MLMs are slowly dying since drug store chains (Rossmann, Super Pharm, Hebe) have expanded to small towns. Who wants to order products from catalogue and wait for the delivery while you can go to a store, check a lot of products, try them, smell them, and buy them at once. Male reps are targetted by MLMs offering perfume (Polish company FM Group), supplements (Forever Living), and financial services (OVB). These MLMs promise luxury cars and vacations, passive income from your downline, they promote an image of a respected entrepreneur - you're not a real man if you have a boss, you need to be your own boss, have your own buisness!

[@nikit0r]

That would explain why they’re not super popular here in Canada, too. I’ve been watching these videos wondering why I don’t see them much here, and that explains a lot. I doubt they would pay even close to minimum wage here, and we have quite good employee packages and social services. Obviously there’s still plenty of room for improvement, but we don’t seem to have the same dire employment situations the States seems to have?

[@SarahAnneStuff]

Hair colorist here - Monat is the bane of our existence. Her hair actually looks more like it has a lot of breakage rather than new growth, and it looks like breakage from lightener and likely using too much/high heat when styling. Also, new growth is happening for everyone all the time. There are times (around every 5-7 years) when the hair sheds more than usual, but for most people this is not terribly noticeable. For the sake of brevity, I recommend looking up the different stages of hair follicles. Other things like hormones or illness can cause more shedding than normal as well. When there is more shedding than normal, for some people the new growth can be more obvious. It depends on hair density, texture, etc.

[@0ddddduck]

I can't stop using my straightener at the highest heat 😭

[@SarahAnneStuff]

@@0ddddduck A heat protectant will really help. It doesn't have to be a particular brand (anything but Monat! 🤣). Silicone based works the best.

Oh my goodness, I went to try out a new hair stylist since I moved to a new area. I went to get my hair highlights touched up and cut, and she was selling monat products and tried to get me signed up after I saw her. Obviously I have not been back. I was shocked to see an actual hair stylist selling monat.

As a hairstylist I laughed at that “new growth” because that is 100% breakage 😂. I also have a client that used monet and the products caused her hair to REALLY break off. It looked like she got a haircut just from using their products that broke her hair off. New hair growth should look like baby hairs growing in. They usually don’t have bleached ends 😂😂

Its not pseudoscience that all matter vibrates at various frequencies. Its observable and repeatable- as pure "science" as it comes. "Everything in life is vibration." Is an Einstein quote. If he is a pseudoscientist i missed the memo.

[@viviantong6396]

@@ChristinaFromKZbin you’ve taken this out of context- it’s clearly in reference to the type of vibrational energy mentioned in the video. I seriously doubt these MLM huns are referring to string theory, quantum physics, and similar vibrations in matter when they talk about vibrations and frequencies and how their products can magically “improve” the “vibrations”. I included “vibrations” in quotes for a reason

To the Monat lady who was so proud to take a week off (but she still worked in pockets of time): I’ve had to take family leave for two weeks when my child had issues. My boss actually recommended it. I had to take a month off for emergency surgery. Guess what? I got paid the whole time and never even thought about work. These huns never stuck in a real job long enough to get to the level where you are a valued employee. They always compare their jobs to an hourly entry level worker with a crappy boss (which is sadly the situation many are stuck in during these hard economic times).

[@mamaya311]

It's like no one in an MLM knows what PTO is. It's so weird. It's like they don't have a way of spinning it to make the MLM look good, so they just resort to comparing the opportunity to jobs without benefits which appeals to people with those types of jobs, which is so predatory and gross.

[@nicoledoubleyou]

That's a good point, it appeals to people with crappy jobs already, I never thought of it that way. I also just wanna say that I think a ton of these women are stay at home moms that, if they ever worked, worked crappy retail and food service jobs cuz they were young... I'm a stay at home mom, I'm not knocking stay at home moms, just that specific kind of person

[@scarlettk7266]

Wow never thought of it that way. If you've never worked a salaried job, you wouldn't know that PTO and other benefits are normal

[@maria.x]

Jessie Lee does this "repeating the same word/sentence to emphasize" thing and IT JUST MAKES ME WANT TO LOG OFF EVERY TIME. She has got to be the ONE mlmer that I need proper mental energy to listen to in a commentary channel. How do these people get trained by this woman?! It's so much noise, and I do mean "noise". She has no substance, it's just meant to make you get lost so she comes out as this knowledgeable person. SHE'S NOT. She mainly just speaks loudly, in dumb metaphors and analogies, and when she runs out of content she sticks on one word and repeats it 20 times. It's so irritating and insulting.

Half of the things on this list can be accomplished with plain old water (which is what their mouth wash mainly consists of anyway since it has no alcohol) or cheap household staples like hydrogen peroxide and rubbing alcohol! At almost $10 for 500mL using this is so unnecessary, but I guess they want you to burn through it as fast as possible so you can buy more.

And as someone that has tried (had to take a step back for family) to get my own business going (I'm a seamstress), they make me so angry. I posted something on Facebook at one point showing my friends why I stopped posting my things on Etsy. Just because I hand make literally everything I've ever sold, but lots on Etsy were buying similar items in bulk from overseas, putting some embroidery on it and calling it "handmade" but their prices were a fraction of what I had to charge to not just lose money. On that post I had like 6 mlm crazies sit there and try to relate and compare their situation to mine. I was pissed. Anyway, I'm thrilled this is all getting out there.

I’ve had jobs with PTO since I was 19. I’m almost 30. My sister got vacation time as a shift lead at a locally owned pizza place. I know not all jobs have benefits, but it baffles me how so many of these adult women don’t even understand what benefits are or that they exist

[@TaylorX3]

Exactly I worked at Wal-Mart, the hell of retail, and got PTO.

[@rgb188]

I hear this. I got paid mternity leave, 6 months worth actually. That's in Australia.

[@Nuraar1]

I'm so glad you ended with that one. I didn't realize I was starting to feel sad after the previous stories, but that last one had me laughing so hard! Can I just do all of this with my regular mouth wash? lmao

[@raychul33]

Not Hannah on her way to 40k subs!! 👏👏👏

[@HannahAlonzo]

So so insane!!

[@raychul33]

@@HannahAlonzo So proud of you!

"Spray into eyeball" I almost spit out my drink when you said that😆

[@ramonadidion2271]

When I was in my early 20s I joined an mlm and this was way before all the education we have now so I fell in sure I was going to stay home with my daughter blah blah blah. What I found most damaging to my life was the credit card that was available to me to grow my inventory. I paid high interest on that inventory for years later after I quit the mlm. Beware!

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

Are they just saying their mouthwash is full of alcohol? Because most of these actions you do with cleaning alcohol.

[@noeliboeromaiorano]

As a contact lenses user, the use in eyes of mouthwash terrifies me.

[@TheBubblyJoanna]

To answer your hair question from 17:45! This is not a perfect answer but I went to cosmetology (no longer a stylist and it’s been 10 years since I graduated) but each of your different strands of hair are in different stages of growth. We loose about 100 strands of hair a day so of course each hair is going to be in different lengths and of course breakage can also be a contributing factor. Hope this helped 💕

[@jenlwilder]

That last bit about the mouthwash reminds me of the movie, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, where the dad thought that Windex basically had all those superpowers, lol!

[@imaginethepossumbilities2337]

I thought Jessie Lee was going to be the topper on this cake, but reading the mouthwash list...I was entertained but also horrified. At least I know how to finally clean my fax machine.

[@babyface45]

Ear aches for CHILDREN! NO!!!! Post Op wounds?! Oh my goodness gracious! Also you are amazing for spreading the info about the FTC comment section period. ❤

[@xxTheSkilletFreakxx]

Dude I love how Hannah just looked straight into the camera like LOOK ME IN THE EYE WE ARE GOING THROUGH ALL 100 THINGS I DID NOT STUTTER

[@melamae8959]

Licensed mental health therapist here. These MLMs that claim to treat mental health disgust me. Their claims are dangerous and I’ve seen real people suffer due to them. Thank you for outing this.

[@mothwings8795]

"'Removes the smell of vomit from sick rooms!' (sarcastic) Yum!" girl I gagged so hard lol

[@kaylarealtalk_safespace5127]

Ooohhh right on Hannah, I am so glad you brought up MLM Change! Thank you for sending people over there - every comment counts! And everyone deserves to be heard 💖

[@kadeelacayo4806]

You know , in my big fat Greek wedding when they said windex cures everything , this is even better. If a mouthwash removes stains ….. I definitely don’t want it in my mouth , my eyes or MY KIDS EARS

[@georgexfekete]

Clip 2: - According to the United States workforce Bureau, over 76% of Americans work in a job that provides them with PTO. So this idea that she was able to take a week off of work and have her check unaffected is not abnormal. Even in entry level positions, many Americans are able to accrue PTO hours. I work in healthcare and usually take anywhere from 2-4 fully paid weeks off of work in a year. The difference being that I only have to work 40 hour weeks in order to obtain those PTO hours whereas in an MLM you work 24/7 and aren’t guaranteed any time off with pay… God I love these videos Hannah!!!!

[@brittanyd3527]

Paused to write down on a sticky note for myself later, “Consider the source, remember the motive” Great advice 😊

[@PopChanx]

Please tell me HOW Jessie Lee thought comparing her MLM "business" to the practices of a SCAMMER was a good idea?! We're all well aware these companies suck, but it's almost like these huns are trying to rub it in our faces at this point lol embarrassing, to say the least.

[@lvkae172]

The mouthwash list reminded me of Avon. I used to sell Avon and during a meeting they provided a list of all the different ways that their Bubble Bath and Skin So Soft can be used.

[@Mama_Bear524]

I always know if a product is a scam if it claims to basically be a cure all. Nothing has that power.

[@lane6216]

Yes!! My mom swore by that stupid Skin so Soft crap. She was so sure, she wouldn’t buy regular bug spray. We lived right by a large woods!! 🙄

[@maryeckel9682]

SSS as a pest repellant is like an urban legend that will not die.

[@katet6098]

The 100 ways to use the mouthwash was basically 5 different ways MAX just used in very specific scenarios hahaha. 1. Mouthwash 2. Take away odor 3. Use to clean 4. USE ON BABY COWS 😂

[@SophieBot5000]

I’m a professional who knows the answer! That blowdryer thing happens to literally everyone bc your follicles are going through the growth phases at different rates. New hair grows in while old hair falls out so don’t worry it might not be all breakage!

[@Benihime09]

The post about the dead dog gave me flashbacks to one of the only times an MLM hun tried to sell something to me. She was running a pet cremation center close to where I lived. I had just lost my beloved cat that day, completely out of the blue, since he was only 3, and was just feeling awful and vulnerable. And that woman had nothing better to do than try and tell me about the "feel good nutritional products" of her scam company. MLMs aren't super common where I live, but I knew about them and managed to get out without buying anything. Back then I wasn't in a mental state to call her out. I sure wish I had spoken up immediately.

[@amandawood665]

I just caught up on your videos and was about to be productive- oh well 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@HannahAlonzo]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ravenismygod]

Yassss! In desperate need of this tonight while I work on a deadline. You are bringing ALL the gold right now Hannah!

[@cheryldawnejackson]

Still watching, but the waiting period is critical and just forcing them (Stampin'Up!) to state they are an MLM and explain that would be huge!

[@katiemaloney2364]

Not long enough to email a horror story, but when I was pregnant with my first child, I worked in retail at the customer service desk. A woman was super nice throughout the return I processed for her. At the end she handed me an “it works” business card with a smile. At the time I had never heard of the company and when I got home I searched it online and was mortified to learn that it was a weight loss/fat loss MLM. I started my pregnancy petite at about 5’2” 105 lbs and didn’t even show my pregnancy until I was 6 or so months along. It wasn’t fat, it was another human! 😩

[@CarolinaSCraftsMakeupFood]

Will definitely be adding a comment and hoping for that amazing change from the FTC. Omg Jessie Lee… she knows EXACTLY what she is doing. She is not one of the ones that is brainwashed - she totally knows she scamming people and it’s awful. She knows what's up Ok … off to watch the rest of the video!

[@CarolinaSCraftsMakeupFood]

Kay so for the mouthwash list I can see some actually making sense like for shoe smell or cleaning a counter and putting in places to remove smells or something but some are totally ridiculous like mouthwash I in eyeballs and on calves? Using on your baby?!? Yeah… no. And also for the ones where I could use it - can I not use like regular mouthwash for that?

[@jackiearnolds]

Omg putting mouthwash in your contact lenses sounds like one of the fastest ways to blind oneself, this made me shiver, how uncomfortable

[@AeriaGl0ris]

I used the moment of silence to mourn all the innocent pixels which were used to write that list. It was like the kind of thing you'd hear from an old-timey snake oil salesman as he pitched his "wares" from a wagon in the town square.

[@fishfish213]

I'm sitting here watching this lady relate recruiting in an MLM to The Tinder Swindler and I'm dying laughing I cannot with this 🤣🤣 I can't believe she literally said that!!

[@maryeckel9682]

She has zero self awareness!

[@casseve4261]

Chux is also an Australian brand of cleaning wipes, which is probably what they were referring to! We don't have a whole lot of pyramid schemes here but I know we have Modere. An acquaintance of mine who is an athlete is "sponsored" by them and always advertises them on social media haha

[@fluffyduckbutt24]

I was off work for 2 months when I broke my arm. FMLA paid as did short term disability and sick/PTO time. And I didn't have beg strangers to go to do my job (ASL medical interpreter) so I could take some of their money to keep me afloat.

[@PallasAthene12]

So I've just fallen down the MLM documentary rabbit hole so had never heard of Jessie Lee until this video. Googled her while watching this and...woah. Wild seeing how she ended up, but absolutely not surprised.

[@freeflyer151]

You can take a week off at a real job, it’s called vacation or sick days and you still get paid!!! And the girl with new growth, maybe from the hair that fell out 😂 omg lol

[@courtney8437]

Wait a god damn minute... you’re telling me that mouthwash can remove odors and sanitize but you also want me to put it in my mouth and SWALLOW IT? Not the selling point she thinks it is 😅😂

[@jozzywolf7520]

That first Fail video about the swindler Swindler feels very analogous to when people who watch the Boys paise Homelander and think he’s the good guy. It’s like - are you watching the same thing I am? How did you miss the entire point?

[@carmenitac]

Spray on post operative wounds 😭😭😭😭😭 I actually gasped at that likeeeee WHAT. That’ll send them back to the hospital I’m sure

[@XSmashleyX87]

That awkward moment when you realize you got a job, then overnight had the ability to take time off with pay. Who’s gonna tell her…?
