    Please please do NOT throw out any Mielle products/receipts because this is proof of purchase and one day you may need to have your product tested to find out if there is anything such as an ingredient that may be causing the issues, especially if your hair/scalp has been damaged. Otherwise, legally you have nothing to present apart from your word.
    Sometimes formula's are changed but the woman that made this product stated that nothing has changed. Many people have looked at the labels of old and new products for the oil as an example, and although many ingredients are the same, they are not in the same order and some have a different added ingredient. This means the product has changed and it is not the same as the original.
    Also, it might be worth going to a hair specialist to get an analysis of what may be causing your hair issues, because if everyone has the same problem scientifically that Mielle has some explaining to do.

I was using the hair oil, the conditioner and the shampoo again I never had a problem growing out my hair and I never had a problem of it shedding , but one day I just said let me just stop using the products not knowing that people were having problems with the products I switch to a different shampoo and hair oil and all my hair stop coming out, I mean I went to the dermatologist. That’s how bad it was!!! now my hair is on its way to recovery. It’s thriving it’s long it still has a way to go, but for anyone that’s contemplating of using these products do not use the products.

      Same. The pomegranate and honey line works fine for me. I like the oil from the Rosemary and Mint line, but did not like the shampoo or deep conditioner. That’s the one with the green label that gives people the most trouble. I think it has too much protein and not enough moisturizing agents. It didn’t damage anything but my hair was dry after using that so I gave it away to my sister with a much softer curl pattern.

    First and foremost your hair is still beautiful. Secondly, in my opinion the formulation of the oil is bad. It is full of super potent essential oils like tea tree, peppermint and eucalyptus. Those oils are meant to be used in very small quantities and certainly not daily and long term. You probably developed an allergy to it over time. Dry itchy scalp and flaking are signs.

    Last month I purchased the Mielle Rosemary mint styling cream and leave-in conditioner from Sally’s Beauty.
    My hair felt soft for a couple days and then I started to notice my hair feels extremely dry. I didn’t think much of it and moisturized it with water and added more product. Within days I noticed shedding from the follicles. Everyone’s hair sheds daily but this was different. Every single time I combed my hair ( twice daily) it shed- a lot! I used the products in the above mentioned manner at least four times over the course of two weeks. I would deep condition my hair weekly hoping that the hair fall would stop but unfortunately, I was still using the products because I didn’t connect the dots. I felt led to Google “ Does Mielle products cause hair to fall out” and instantly, many threads and RUclips videos were trending.
    Needless to say, I immediately stopped using the products and returned them to Sally’s.

    I used the exact same Mielle products you used The Pomegranate and the rosemary oil. I’m tired of growing my hair out long and having to start over. When I started using the Mielle products my hair was natural and mid back length. I was so proud of myself for growing out my natural hair that long. Now it’s back to the drawing board for me and my hair. Like you I’m using a leave in conditioner and twist and braid cream from Design Essentials and a black castor oil. The lesson I learned is if my hair is thriving with the products i’m using don’t switch. I’m trying to figure out why did I change products when there was no need to do so. Lesson learned.

    I don’t know if people know about a particular ingredient that has been used in mielle product called retinyl palmitate
    This particular ingredient is what is causing a lot of hair loss .
    It will cause an immediate hair growth during the anagram stage (begging stages of hair growth) a
    But will cause a lot of hair loss during the latter part of the hair growth.
    The ingredient can really clog up the pours which can cause irritation and excessive dryness to the scalp.
    It also comes from palm oil hence why you might have saw changes in hair colour.
    Avoid mielle at all costs

      There's a science to the hair and scalp which very few people talk about which is why people with African Ancestry always end up with damaged hair. When I turned 29, my scalp became more sensitive and I didn't know the cause until my trichologists told me to stop oiling/greasing/ putting butter on my scalp. They also told me not to braid my hair in box braids or cornrows because 1. it causes microfractures in my hair and 2. it prevents moisture and hydration from getting into my hair strand correctly. So now I shampoo my scalp every 7 to 10 days and I can only wear kinky twists extensions for 12 weeks of the 52 a year.
      If I want to wear a wig, I flat twist my hair or put it in 2 or 3 french braids. No more small braids for me. No more scalp oil, butter, grease or pomade for me. No more monthly shampoos for me. No more home chemicals for me. I have to go and get my trims and have my hair and scalp assessed by my trichologists and stylist every 12-16 weeks. They can't evaluate my scalp if I'm in back-to-back braids and cornrows and extensions. As I have high porosity hair, I apply leave -in conditioner to my hair every day. I skip styling products which irritate my scalp and dry out my hair and just use leave-in. In kinky twists extensions, I use braid spray daily. I have a water-based scalp mist from my trichologists. I have to use Deep conditioner instead of regular rinse out conditioner. i use edge control maybe once a month. Because my hair is ultra-fine I use a daily light protein mist and a medium-strength protein conditioner every other week.
      This is just my scalp and my hair that has been assessed by professionals in person in real life. A lot of braiders are not hair loss and hair care specialists. A lot of stylists/cosmetologists do things to damage the hair and scalp. Please got to a professional who focuses on hair care, healthy hair, scalp issues and hair loss at least every 12-16 weeks. I'm neurodivergent and life gets hectic so I see my professionals to keep me on track with my hair and scalp health.

      To be honest, it needs to have just a little bit of rosemary oil because it is very potent, too much will cause hair loss. I found that it is way too far up the ingredient list and that can be causing the possible hair loss. Especially if you use it frequently.

    Thank you for this. I've been experiencing some weird texture change that of course I attempted to blame other things for because Mielle started out strong for me. But, I was getting twists a lot and cleansing with other things in those styles. So doing the rosemary & mint deep conditioning masque before and after my twists was great, and I was only going a few weeks between, so I wasn't getting true long term usage. ...until this year... I didn't re-up my twists because I wanted to give my hair a break, which means I've been using the products more regularly (I even bought a COUPLE more bottles of the almond oil like a month ago) and the state of my hair is dookie. Because I wasn't experiencing massive loss like I've heard so many others describe, I thought I was one of the heads that was doin alright with the products. They may or may not be the cause of my issues, but the first step is to cease and desist and take it from there.

    I use Design Essentials and Kera Care products but I was using that Mielle oil. Only one bottle from Dec.23 until Aug.24. I started noticing thinning in the crown area in July. I caught it early and then started seeing all these vids. I took back the new Mielle bottle I had just bought last month. Stick to professional brands (like they use in the shop), no mom and pops new brands catered to “natural hair care”, etc. I remember as a kid, I even used Paul Mitchell. Hair was amazing. Also, I learned to stop oiling the scalp period and dont do detangling nor braiding on wet hair. After cutting off 2-3 inches, I’m working my way back now. Scalp went from light pink (inflammation) to white in some areas. Keep the scalp clean. Keep your routine simple. None of them extra creams, butters, oils.

My sister said I had a small bald patch, and my parts have gotten wider, I thought it was my high blood pressure medicine (I only take my medication) because it was changed. So like everyone else I continued using the product because my sister would always use on my hair when she did it. However every time I had a hot flash the itching, would intensify from itching to burning. I started using henna sooq hair products tapped on scalp problems purchased Ayurvedic oils, shampoos, and masks hair felt amazing. Because Henna sooq doesn’t carry a leave-in still not thinking I put the Mielle pomegranate and honey on my hair. I am literally scratching to the point where I had sores on my scalp It was that bad. So days later I washed my scalp, with henna sooq cleansing conditioning co-wash I no longer cared about my hair I was only looking for relief. This time I put nothing else in my hair after I washed it. Still had some mild discomfort and weak later washed it again added nothing else. I haven’t had any problems since. I recently washed my hair three days ago are used an all natural deep conditioner I got from my sister with , melanin twist elongating style cream, and curly magic by uncle Funkys daughter.

    It took me forever to try the oil. I'd look at it and just simply not buy it. Same with with the shampoo, which ive never tried. Something just said, no, lol.
    I finally did buy the oil... used about half the bottle. I noticed my scalp being a little itchy...did also wonder why my hair seemed dryer than usual. I stopped using it. My 14 yr old started using it. She's learning how to take care of her hair, so I was just happy she was oiling her scalp. She was patting her head DOWN everytime I saw her and using any and everything to scratch her scalp to sores. She says she had some dandruff spots, which she doesn't normally get. So we stopped using it. That was just one bottle, so i can imagine continued use over an extended period of time.
    I also started using the curling custard. It's bomb!! After my first use it transformed my hair. I'm now on my 3rd jar and don't see that it's done any damage... it's only helped. So I'll continue that, but watching carefully for any changes.

    In Sep 2022 I used their cowash. Right after that, my hair started coming out in massive clumps, unlike my normal pea sized shedding. my hair had massive breakage and I had to cut off a lot of my hair. My hair texture changed and looked just like yours. Somehow, I gaslit myself into thinking it was a hormonal issue when I should’ve known better that it was something that I used. I’ve never used Mielle since then and I have not had any huge shedding, but , I’ve been dealing with trying to get my hair back to where it was in my photo. I’m honestly not sure if that’s gonna happen.😢

    Ughhhh I’m going through the same thing. I cut my hair to a little above shoulder length hoping that would take care of it but it’s still shedding. Not nearly as bad as it was while using Mielle but still enough to where I’m noticing that my scalp is becoming bald in the middle and going forward. My hair texture is completely different… normally 4c and now it’s very loose and thin. Not to mention my son was using the shampoo for his locs and so many of his locs have come out in the front/ middle. I feel so bad 🤦🏾‍♀️. I’m trying to so hard not to cut my hair but I feel like that’s what I’m gonna have to do 😞💔

    I purchased the rosemary mint shampoo last month at Target. I had never heard of Mielle, yet alone he controversy surrounding the brand, otherwise I would never have even tried it. I used it two or three times and it actually made my hair feel soft and smooth, but after randomly coming across your and other similar videos this weekend, I threw the bottle away immediately. I’m sorry you and others are living this nightmare, and thank you for sharing your experiences so I and many others who were fortunate to have only tried it a couple of times without issue could throw it out before any damage was done.

    I would keep the product and get it tested. I've noticed many people are saying the same thing about their experience from Mielle. Mielle is saying that it using the same ingredients, and nothing changed. Honestly, people, Im thinking before you throw products in the trash. Keep it and get it tested. You will not have a leg stand on, because Proctor and Gamble will point to the ingredients saying you could be sensitive. So my advice before the pitch forks comes out. Everyone who been having a problem with Mielle products to get it tested. This could be a cross-contamination situation. They make Zevo and other products. So, to have a lawsuit, have your product tested. This will help in the fight. Also, even if they use a different third-party vendor for their oils, essential oils are extracted differently. These oils could be inferior but extracted chemically instead of distillation. So please people if you can get it tested. If a lawsuit or removal of the product is what you want, then back it up with some type of proof. Im sorry that this happened.
