This is exactly why I make my own products. We really don't need much to grow and maintain our hair, its these big companies that are after our money that constantly push the narrative that we need their products. We just need water for moisture, natural oils to seal the moisture in, and we need to tuck the ends of our hair to retain length and prevent breakage. That's it.

It happened to Carols daughter, and Shea moisture, the formulas changed after they sold their companies.

I’m telling y’all those products destroy your hair and they are full of poison. When I confronted them they did not return my money.STOP USING THEIR PRODUCTS. Make your own.

To me it’s spiritual between you and your children❤

I love the question: "why do you need access to our scalp so bad?" Wake up ...

I TOTALLY AGREE white and black SCALP and HAIR are DIFFERENT!!!! I would think it would be too strong for Caucasian SCALP!!!!! I think it's made SPECIFICALLY for the SCALP and hair TEXTURE for the black community.

I immediately stop using all Melilla products range since she sold her company. The company vehemently sold never would cater to black peoples hair.

I love your background! It’s different and not the usual!

You look cute and Refreshed on this video. 🤍

$160 Wow.... That is a Excellent price. I am a Loctiton it would have been alot more. Especially how thick and long your hair is and how small they are. Blessings to them. I Bet after this service they will go up on their price. That is alot of work for that price. So glad it worked for you. You should go back to them and always let them help you. Especially since she was good. Thanks for Sharing.

Etae’s products made my loc client shed really bad. Essential oil is very potent n cheap quality essential is an understatement 😩 That way I make my own Ayurvedic hair products for my natural beautiful hair

This is a fear for me....

First cousin 😮

Not the vibration that be coming off these brainwash sis lox heffers

Listen…I have traditional locs..and they were mid back. I cut them into a bob. Loctician definitely felt a way. I was like last time I checked this is MY JOURNEY. I then decided to maintain my tresses myself. Best decision I could have made. I’m a cancer survivor, so I have to maintain my hair differently…I’m proud of you. Keep going…🤎

It thinned my locs out a quite a few broke off at the sides😢

Companies that buy black cosmetic companies eventually try to make the product cheaper and more suitable for white people’s skin and hair. They do this by replacing quality ingredients with cheaper lesser quality oils and WATER. It’s a money game. The new company doesn’t care about our skin and hair.

I have Sisterlocks. I had them for 6 years and I have used Mielle's Rosemary Oil a few times and Mielle moracan oil clarifying shampoo I had no issues. The shampoo actually softened my hair which I do not mind because I want to soon take down my locs in near future. I threw away the products because of all of what's going on. I actually liked the product. It's too bad.

I love your locks. They are very much given me Lisa Bonet freeness. If I was to grow my natural hair out and locks, that is what I would want. I wouldn’t want them to be neat looking. I would want that because it looks natural. That looks pleasing to the eye and it looks beautiful. Now if one has a tighter coiled hair texture they probably not gonna get away with this Static and especially to have party and spaces and twist because it hair texture but with your hair texture, your face the hair color all of it is giving me this freeness connection with nature. I just feel like mother nature right now that’s what I get and I love it. Sounds like they would give you that mother Africa treatment that we should be getting with our hair instead of these made up lock rules that we’ve done in America. They don’t even match Jamaica. Let’s face it.

This has been happening since about the 1970's when black brands and black owned beauty supply stores where becoming really popular. Unless you maintain full ownership, formulating, manufacturing and distribution of your brand this can and most likely will happen. We, generally, don't have the resources to keep up with the growth and demand of the business without being acquired. The few black brands that have remained small in most cases have survived. For some reason many black brand owners are determined to be the biggest and monopolize all other black brands, but this pursuit usually ends up with this outcome. Black women are about 10% of the population but buy about 90% of beauty products. There is a war going on for our dollars, and our hair and black beauty brands end up being the casualties.

Your locs are beautiful, glad you found a place that helped you❣️

Well said

That girl, Monique, what she should’ve did was just sold the business and started over with something new and removed herself from that product because once she sold it to PG, it was no longer her company and they knew they were gonna change her product ingredients and now she is still the face of it all but she doesn’t have anymore control of Mielle And they let her take all the backlash

You should keep that bottle because you got the one of the last batches that was sent out before they changed the formula! A friend of mine owns a small natural hair care and she’s black woman owned and she was proposition by Amazon to work with or sell her products or something they wanted to do and she said no because they wanted to mass produce, and they would change the ingredients in order to fulfill the amount quantity so that Monique say the formula hasn’t been changed she’s a lie lie impossible natural ingredients it takes longer to produce because their organic and natural they’re not easily ready and the amount to put into target you have to have mass production

That shiii is done on purpose all by design fr😢😢😢

How long did it take to grow your locs that long

The way these ppl gaslight BW 🙄😒

My hair was bountiful and almost butt length. Then, it started thinning and shedding. I was using the shampoo, conditioner, masque, and oil. I did a complete chop, 😊and now I've just completed my first year of microlocks. My hair is thriving, thick, and healthy. I am currently using the head and shoulders royal oils collection for my locks with homegrown aloe for my hair masque.

❤❤❤I USED IT,,,ALOT OF PEOPLE I KNOW USED IT NOOOOO PROBLEMS AT ALLLLL

That’s how a lot of them separated

Love it

As a Locs Specialist as well as Locs client, I would suggest that you do more legwork to find the Locs Specialist or Locs Technician you can be comfortable with and be a good partner in your locs journey. Be a good partner by staying committed to the schedule and plan you both set in the beginning. If you decide to go diy (which I can relate to) assume the responsibility for the fallout that comes. I see no need to make disparaging remarks about the community you previously joined to the broadcast social media. Ultimately, I am happy for you to receive your desired results.

I would have thought it would have been much more than than that’s a lots of work to untangle all of that hair and wash and conditioner it

That going to be a lots of work and I know much money is involved with all of that

I dont trust any of these " blk owned" they slap these title on stuff to attract us..

I have used and purchased this oil for awhile but the last bottle I purchased this past year is definitely a different formula because I do feel my hair is not reacting the same. But the bottle I purchased last year was still OK, so I think that they are playing around with the formula… seeing whats cheaper…. but I think I’m no longer going to purchase, because of how my edges have been reacting recently, where it didn’t do that before.

Even if nothing changed, what if something got in and contaminated the batch 🤔

I agree. They use blk women. And blk women allow themselves to be used.

I dont use those products or go to any beauty supply store because they took that from us and make billions. I don't trust products directed to blacks.

6:06 My exact question I been asking. Just like Elasta QP had a hair lotion called “Recovery”, it was so awesome, so hydrating and they was always selling out then they up and just discontinued it. It was on eBay for $60 and up a bottle. So sad, they don’t want us to have anything good and working for us…to make us spend more money. I’m doing just like you and making my own. 💜

This is not a conspiracy. This happens with every acquisition. Bragg's experienced this. Famous Amos experienced this. Mccormick, Lume, etc. No one is targeting Black people. Wow we really need to embrace education and knowledge. This is so slow and so sad. And scary. Wow. Research and information will save your life. Literally. It's about profit margins, not sabotage.

I love wigs mainly BOB. For me personally they’re great to change your color and length without damaging your hair. 😊

The UNPROFESSIONAL way Monique and her COWARDLY husband attacked content creator Linda Lynn in 2020, I decided NEVER to buy any of their products!!!

The products SEEM to drastically change when the "big companies" start to mass produce the products. That was my experience many years ago with Carol's Daughter. At that time, I used the Carol's Daughter brand. When the brand was no longer a small business, the formulations changed. The "big companies" are more concerned about making money than producing natural quality products.

So excited for you Sis! Can't wait for you to show out!😊 I've used Mielle in the past when I was a loose natural specifically the Pomegranate & Honey collection and had no issues. Since being loc'd I haven't used any of the products...I do hope a healthy resolve is found because this seems as if the quality of the ingredients are less than now because... it's our community mostly affected.

I have said this for years how our folks hair and edges have been falling out. I have a friend who had a hair and wig shop for years who spoke of this. If we grow our hair long and healthy, we don't need the wigs and weaves etc etc. I think you know what I mean. All natural for me all my Queen Sisters...😊

you need to patent a natural glue. My fantasy is to sponge twist my short quarter inch hair. so that it has the perfect naturally even, pixelation then glue it so that my hair hair grows out my scalp locked. I donot want to separate and lock long loose hair nor do I want someone else to

How long you've been locd? Any extensions (sorry if you've answered this already)

Girl when you get any type of locks you still have to maintain it, 6 years, are you kidding me, get outta here wit that. It’s matted, cut that mess out and start from scratch

I’m sorry, but your eyebrows are extremely off centered that I can’t focus on anything you’re saying.
