Whites learned, long ago, that Black haircare is HUGE business. I wonder whether they set-up Black companies, by having white women review and post against them, in order to buy them cheaply

That first controversy with Linda Lynn was enough for me. Going through all their orders just to find her address and phone number, then have her husband harassing a client, a man intimidating a woman. All because someone made a review online and they didn’t like it. I doubt she was the first or only person to review a Mielle product and not like it. She should have reported and sued them for harassment.

Yes, that was a lot. Linda Lynn didn’t drag the company or them personally she just said the rice water products weren’t for her. I don’t understand how they expect everyone to like all of their products

It was so ghetto and then she proceed to go on Instagram live and continue to drag the girl and talk about God and haters! Like, what? Prior to Linda's video there were so many influencers that made videos dragging that rice water line and for whatever reason she just became fixated on Linda's video.

My primary reasons for buying black owned brands 1) generally better ingredient quality formulated for coily, kinky & curly hair 2) financially empower other Black people. Once either of these change I no longer support the company.

[@Naomi-gr7fm]

What does "formulated for coily, kinky, & curly hair" even entail though? Hair is hair (keratin). It's just the shape that really differentiates what it looks like. Most important thing for me has basically been understanding my hair porosity (low). Like the whole alleged curly "sulfate-free" propaganda does not work for me.

[@S.Uranus]

​@Naomi-gr7fm It means it's more hydrating better for kinky hair than "regular" products/products that are in MOST places. Suave, aussie, head & shoulders conditioner, etc... prevent my hair from forming it's curls/it just does not work for me. I use head & shoulder anti fungal shampoo on scalp and face, then use scented shampoo, softening with vitamins conditioner, and maybe after my hair is a bit wet I will style with gel. They definitely changed the rosemary mint drop formula... 😓

[@S.Uranus]

​@@Naomi-gr7fm Formula is what makes up the end products.(What is inside to achieve specific results.)

[@Aniexo_]

@@Celestinewarbeck that’s very untrue 😂 maybe shampoo can slide with that statement

[@Lacavadoe]

I’m good on using her products. The reason behind that is because when I saw that she sold it to a white person that told me that the products ingredients was about to change. Look at how when BET was bought by a white company. It’s now tacky ratchet stripper show. When I saw that white women were using this line. I knew that the products were also going to have to be altered so that their hair can handle the product did not fall out or dry out. With them catering to people of the Caucasian hair strands that’s going to hurt Black people, hair, strands, or mixed Black people. I can use other that targets, Caucasian nationality or even the Asian nationality. I have to be careful about some of those products because it can cause my hair to shed. when black products that was designated for black hair switch, that’s when it can cause a lot of hair fall out or even baldness. Be careful everybody!

[@CoffeeCuties777]

I agree! Selling the company was a major red flag for me 🤎

[@godislove3593]

The products use to be amazing. They caused my hair to dry and break. They should have released more products catered to yt people instead of changing the original.

[@chatwithchika]

I lost interest in supporting black owned businesses once I realized their products weren’t necessarily better than what was already on the market, and I noticed that their prices didn't go down after they were bought out to a larger company. I don’t really use any commercial hair or skin care products anymore because I'm tired of all the formula changes. I just make some DIY stuff and call it a day.

[@chanellie86]

I am switching to the Ayurvedic products. I am doing my research. So far, they don't have the chemicals that the commercial products have. But you have to do your homework and research them and learn what each product is supposed to do, and then use them in the correct amounts and the correct way. I am tired of these Black companies getting rich off of us, then selling to these white companies for a profit, leaving us with hair setbacks. We work hard to take care of our hair, then, boom...these products are causing setbacks. I feel betrayed and used.

[@chanellie86]

I make my own products. From my own hair cleanse rinse all the way down to my own hair mask. I buy Rosemary plants and peppermint plants and Aloe Vera plants from a nursery to do my DIY. It’s also a great idea to propagate your plants to have plenty of them.

[@Sparkle-ey7iw]

A lot of “black” hair care products are overpriced just because they know products geared towards textured is limited. They’re really exploiting black women when it comes to our hair. Just use quality moisturizing products and products that’s best for your hair porosity and you should be fine

[@Raray200]

Not really, black hair products are around $15, they have more slip and formulated for black hair. I used to use Pantene prov, but many mainstream products have silicones and parabens

[@se2664]

Yup that’s why the stylists charge a lot of money for doing black hair in cities that lack a black culture such as Irvine and Seattle because they know getting kinky hair done is NOT ACCESSIBLE

[@Sparkle-ey7iw]

@@Raray200 Pantene may not be a good product however Aussie has some very moisturizing conditioners and products. There’s plenty of naturals on YT with healthy hair down their backs from using it. I’m sure there are other reasonably priced products that’s great for naturals. But you’re right about certain ingredients that’s the ket knowing what your hair needs and likes

[@prtdiva]

That’s not necessarily true. All small indie brands, Black ones included, have to charge a certain price for their products because the ingredients cost them more if they’re using higher quality ingredients and they don’t have the same ability to produce larger quantities like big corporations such as p & g. That’s why the people who sell shea butters etc at local festivals charge more because of the time it takes them to produce the products out of their kitchens. Once they become a mid sized business they now have to pay for larger space such as a factory and pay staff to scale up and make more products. When they become a big brand like Mielle you can’t just magically cut costs because now you’re mass producing. Although it sucks when Black businesses eventually sell, it usually is their only option if they want their brand to go global because it becomes very expensive trying to scale a business. At each stage of your business you now accrue more items to pay for (i.e staff, insurance, packaging, events, marketing, etc.) when you might’ve started out with one little product and yourself. P&G can produce products for much less than smaller brands because they have the financial backing to do so. This is the reality of being a business owner. And that’s why eventually, almost all small brands, not just Black ones, sell when they get to a certain point. You don’t have to continue to support them but at least know the reasoning why their products cost more.

[@Raray200]

@@Sparkle-ey7iw I used to use Aussie in college, I noticed the ingredients were full of chemicals and parabens. I stopped using it and found that some black products had less chemicals and more natural ingredients and more slip!

This happens with almost every Black owned hair care company today. They get massive support from Black women and once the brand takes off it’s the mega companies take notice. They want in and offer a hefty sum to buy out their companies. I respect a business decision, however, I now believe the goal for most new black hair startups is to get to the corporate level. I used to support Carol’s daughter and shea moisture when they first launched in NYC. They were in very few stores and it felt exclusive. I supported them for many long years. They’ve since sold the companies and changed the formulas. You can now find them in TJ Maxx and Marshall’s. The Mane Choice (supported her when she shipped from home) has done the same thing. I, too, have noticed the change in Miele Organics products. My hair was super dry and shedding after using the rosemary mint collection. I returned them to the store. I’m over supporting this trend of high priced products that are sold to the highest bidder and know nothing about our hair.

[@Cbuty]

Most of thier products is not by experts experience

[@MsLPJ]

Also a lot of times the black original owners don't necessarily want to sell but the big conglomerates will bully them into selling. They make it harder for them to get the ingredients and make it hard for them to have different distribution channels, so they end up having to sell it if it's going to continue to be profitable.

[@clairedaniels1877]

But every once in a while I use Mielle’s deep conditioner that’s it. In the past I bought the whole line and my hair thrived off of it.

The oil I make I gave two jars of it to my boss and her edges grew back in just three months. Her edges were gone (she shaved them) I gave her the oil in June and now it’s August and she has full blown out edges. I knew the oil did its job but I am still amazed!

@@CoffeeCuties777 Just get a mason jar and pour all the ingredients in it. You can 1) either put it in a dark closet for a month to naturally fuse together or 2) double boil the oil in the jar if you can’t wait and want to use it immediately.

Procter & Gamble owns majority of Mielle Organics. They're going to use the same ingredients that they use for their other hair care products such as Pantene, Aussie, Herbal Essence etc. They did the same thing to the brand My Black is Beautiful. Inflating the prices of the product and no longer delivering the products the consumers originally have grown to love. Any time a big corporations buys out a business like that the big corporation has the finally say. Procter & Gamble saw that women of all the cultural backgrounds buying out that oil and now Mielle is not an exclusive Black Owned Hair Care brand. I worked for corporations like P&G for years.

[@trawlins396]

[@trawlins396]

[@Theonlyphuevos]

@trawlins396 Unilever owns Nexxus alongside 400 other brands like Dove, Axe, Magnum Ice Dessets, Degree &, etc. There are 10 big corporations that we all consume from that own all these other brands. The monopolization is crazy amongst these corporations. Brands you'd always thought were their independent brands are owned by one the 10 big corporations.

[@Theonlyphuevos]

@trawlins396 It's just all about money. And honestly, people are tired of being scammed out of their hard-earned money. But we gotta stop falling for the same tricks. They market everything towards women & children because that's where all their revenue comes from. Women are the top consumers & they've found ways to market, advertise, & manipulate people into overspending on things we don't need. That's why Target does so well.

I emailed, but no response, so I was left with missing products and empty bottles. I went to the Better Business Bureau to leave a review and saw that the majority of the reviews were like mine. Missing products, empty bottles and no responses. That told me all I needed to know when it came to the company. They did not care about their customers. I have not given them one dime of my money since then, nor did I use the few products I ordered.

I just found other products that my hair enjoys and I also do a lot diy. It's easy to make your own rosemary and mint oil at home ladies if you want to take the time. Just a thought.

I use Mielle products; however, I don’t consistently use the products, because it does have the tendency to be drying to my hair. I find that I have to change products often and revisit them later. Coincidentally, I used the Mielle shampoo and conditioner and curling custard on this profile picture. I was pleased with the products at that time.

I’ve just been using actual natural ingredients for the past couple of months. I followed a recipe for black soap shampoo and I haven’t looked back since. I finally realized that there is not a single commercial product that can clean my scalp and keep it from itching afterwards. AND give my hair the moisture it needs. I keep my routine as simple as possible including simple ingredients. Black soap shampoo with fenugreek powder, vitamin E oil (near pure), vegetable glycerin, essential oils: lavender/peppermint/tea tree Aztec clay + ACV has also been extremely helpful and gives me amazing results when it’s followed by the mayo deep conditioner recipe Deep condition with mayo, egg, fenugreek powder, vitamin E oil. Gonna try another recipe with avocado/banana/okra to compare. Finish it all off in some twists with water and just castor oil or a Chebe + Castor oil hair grease I found on Amazon. A true classic MVP is the Wild Growth hair oil. IFYKYK. I should’ve never stopped using that lmao wayy better results than the Mielle Rosemary oil even though I really did love the rosemary when it first came out despite the itching💀

[@Glambunni]

Mielle is a good product but the products are a bit drying and I have residue issues with it. I've switched to Camille Rose which works much better.

[@Glambunni]

@@CoffeeCuties777 the twisting butter in Sweet Almond and Honey. Over the years I've tried so many different natural hair care products (popular brands) and let me tell you the majority on the market are garbage. Simplicity is Key, find a moisturizer, find a good oil to lock it in and that's it (other than shampoo and conditioner), my hair has been thriving without all the nonsense the natural hair community encourages you to do. You wanna grow long hair, put it in braids for a year, leave it for 1 month, let it rest for a week and then repeat. The main thing is making sure your scalp is clean, your hair is moisturized and the hairstyle isn't causing too much tension.

[@aminazulainaz7275]

I use this line (the rosemary mint formula), the shampoo,conditioner and oil along with bantana oil. My hair grows very fast with this combo. Haven't had any tangling or matting issues. I'm super surprised to hear this. I'm also disappointed to hear they sold it to P&G.

Carol’s Daughter was my jam when my hair was relaxed but I haven’t used it in years. It’s hard being a product junkie in this day and age. I want to try different things but money is precious and I get tired of experimenting on myself. With my skin condition, I have to use an anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner, which is KeraCare then I use Hawaiian Silky as a leave in followed by The Doux Big Poppa for wash and go’s. For twist-outs I use Tgin. So far so good. I like the results I’m getting. I’m trying to use everything up before I go trying a different leave in. It’s tough dealing with a skin condition because I don’t know what products will cause it to flare up.

[@jaybeey7239]

Hey sorry your going through this, I know how it feels. One of the things that helped me is I stopped putting any oil on my scalp completely - research the correlation between oil, even natural sebum and scalp conditions For a period of time I used a clarifying shampoo on my SCALP not hair strands regularly to remove the oil, shampoo with salicylic acid or good. Also look into "glycolic acid toner" for the scalp Also with my wash and goes I would dry my hair, I used a blow dryer until I got my hooded one. Look into the effects of water on the scalp and hair shaft for long period of time I hope you find some relief ❤❤

The Mielle pomegranate line and Braggs ACV were staples… once Braggs sold, my ACV stopped work the same and caused dryness. Then Mielle started to dry my hair out.

I also gave it to my bf, who is white/Hispanic, and it helped his hair stop shedding noticeably. Nothing else was working for him and I told him to give it a try. Use what works for you.

No I'm not using to much. Also no hair oil should make your hair stick together like glue even if you use the whole bottle. Once water hits your hair after using these oils your hair will never be the same and stick together like glue. I hear only people with looser texture curls these oils work for. I have 4c hair. Never has oil or even grease made my hair stick together like glue.

People keep saying to look at the product label, but that will tell you very little about ingredient QUANTITY and QUALITY changes. All the same ingredients will most likey be listed, if not consumers would be alerted to bait and switch tactics more quickly. Also just because your hair did not fall out right away does not mean an older formula worked for you. Our bodies can take weeks to months before severe adverse reactions (e.g. hair loss) are shown.
