Some people clearly didn’t watch my previous video on this topic. In that video, I said that I understand there are many non-black woman who have textured hair and these videos are not for them. And for the people saying “ the company can just make more” you’re not understanding when white people take an interest in black products the company changes the formula to cater to them. And we can no longer use those things. And I meant what I said it’s selfish. They’ve always had hundreds of brands for their hair so you do not need this product even though you can buy it.
Little Sister, You are right. This is what happened to Cantu and some Shea Moisture lines. YT people you have you own products, been having for years, use it and leave black hair care products to people with textured hair! Thank you for "reading" my Ted talk!
Those other products I still can’t need I did research to find the hair out to help with my scalped and it helped of you really want to complain about it but your stuff online
They did? good! I make my own oils. but I do support when I can and this one has good reviews from our ppl. I'm glad be whew!! shea moisture was not as strong under pressure
for real. i have an oily scalp but dry ends so i just use coconut oil. it’s not that hard to find oil for my hair so why in the world would i get oils made for black hair? that makes no sense to me. as a white person i realize most beauty products are catered to us and when we see other people getting including it’s almost as if we can’t handle it.
Shoot as long as the ingredients do no change idc, let their hair fall out 🤷🏽♀️. They always think they can copy or one up us, you can never beat the original 💅🏽.
They want to gate keep products yet continue to wear plastic horse hair or someone's old indian grandmas hair, Asian hair, Brazilian hair, Caucasian hair. Stealing left and right.
Soo true who are they catering to. we will never have anything, if Black owned don’t what the initial goal was in the first place “BLACK HAIR CARE” now I’m scared to even use black hair products because nothing seems to be catered to us by us…. Non black society always try to make us feel bad about doing something for us caring about ourselves for us go and change our initial thought or view on a subject (and ingredients) Black owned stay true!!!!
This is so real. If it was the other way around and a white person was walking down aisles recording saying that black people need to stop buying something because their black they would be slandered.
U obviously have no education or never even read if u actually had common sense u can read the product it literally says “4c hair only” MEANS ITS FOR BLACK PEOPLE YALL NEEDA STOP GIVING EVERYTHING AWAY TO WHITE PEOPLE OMG
Use products according to your hair type, not your ethnicity. If you are white, Hispanic, Asian, etc. and it works for your hair, use it. If the mielle works for you, you are ok to use it. you are NOT selfish. If it doesn’t work for you, it may not be the product.
this! I use this oil (same oil but different brand but that doesn't matter) for my white hair because it's the only thing that helps my itchy and irritated scalp, "white" hair products, especially the ones she shows suck so much
I literally had an older white woman ask me what I used to keep my skin clear and I told her African black soap and she came back in my store a few months later and thanked me because her skin had never been clearer…y’all petty
Tbh? As a white boy who lets black girls degade me for my kink these girls tell me they just wanna see them selves as a 🌟Black Goddess🌟✨️why? Well ever since childhood for the most part they have felt insecure about their race mostly hair an degrading white people makes them feel better. I dont mind. Besides its happened to me so much iv kinda grown to like it.
@@wtfsouppthe fact you really watched this very short clip and processed “gate-keeping” are your 5 years old? Or just an ignorant grown ass 40 year old?
Well no Jonathan unfortunately the world isn’t black and white. Brands do cater for certain hair types singling out certain demographics. It’s okay to acknowledge this.
@@B00GH0STIEthat's because they are for BLACK PEOPLE. Do you see Asians with kinky hair? White people? Are you slow or purposely ignorant? 🤌🏽 This isn't racism. It's common sense. It's like men complaining that sanitary pads are not sold for men. You don't need it, it's not FOR YOU.
sorry this is a dumb take. if more people are using black hair products the stores will just make it more available. also rosemary oil is recommended for any woman with hair loss and plenty of white people and other races have female hair loss.
Boo the store don't make the product that's not even a major corporation owned business a black women works on that product herself they complaining about its oily while using a product that says hair oil like bffr black peoples hair doesn't produce oil the way it should which is why we need it
The problem is when they change their formulas to fit non black textures black peoples are the main consumers of company so if they want to do so they need to make a formula suitable for non Afro hair textures I believe the original owner sold her company as well so that could be it
Um, sweetheart I can totally tell you’ve never even taken a look at this product 😂there’s so many more oils in this that are considered carrier oils (if you don’t know what that means google it) aside from rosemary. The others are probably way too heavy for WW hair such as castor oil and that’s why it’s affected their hair the way it has.
Girl no. Look at shea moisture now. They literally changed the formulas on some of their best products os white women would use them. Now their once thick coily custard is basically water.
Some of you here sound SO BITTER, your negativity is not going to change anything. Wishing womens hair would fall off for trying a product, y’all sound miserable
it’s like u white ppl r just responding not listening 💀she doesn’t care whether it works or doesnt, the problem is when ppl w straighter hair textures try other products meant for black hair, they change the product to fix y’all’s hair too which is annoying considering there’s so much hair products for y’all 💀plus ik some white ppl have curly hair i’m talking abt the straight/wavy haired girlies
@@lexijones8019 no problem and I understand how ppl outside of the black community feel because it’s not right at all. I even have a white friend I did box braids on and ppl had judged her for it and it made me mad.. ppl are just so mean 😪 🤬🙄
I think these people are mad because companies change products and it no longer suits their hair type however your comment does make a lot of sense it’s not race it’s hair type
@@iamskylynnewell the box braids is probably cause it belongs to African culture, other braids belong to other cultures too, so thats why they were rude to her and just to be respectful she shouldn't do that again, but you are right the hair products don't HAVE a specific race to be used on
The oil just works better on specific hair types, it comes from a black hair brand, therefore it would obviously work best on black hair. The issue is that, folks who are not black, in this case, white people, tend to use products made for black hair and negatively review them when it does not work for them. And there is no reason for the brand to be all inclusive, all hair types are different, and not everything is a one size fits all. Simply checking out the website and asking yourself, does it look like these products cater to my hair. If no, then at least make it known that you are using a product that does not seem to work with your hair type but you are trying it anyway. People slammed the product that was not even made for their hair type, like that makes no sense.
@@ruffledfilms5270that makes sense. I use Mielle for my hair and my brother uses it too. I’m glad it is a black people product and anyone that isn’t black not trying to be rude, but don’t use the product and do research on a product before buying it so people know what will work for their hair type.
Black women, you can make this oil for way cheaper. Just get some olive oil or carrier oil of choice and add dried rosemary, peppermint essential oil, and any other herbs of choice. Put in a glass jar in a dark place for a few weeks. Then strain when you’re ready to use into a bottle. You don’t need to support Mielle. You can make bigger batches of hair growth oil for less. ❤
Thanks! I make my own oil, plus I add biotin oil in mine. I think black women needs to stop catering to companies who continue to disrespect black women. These companies know what they're doing...it's all about money.
It’s about supporting Mielle they didn’t cause the problem. They never even marketed to those people. Why harm a black business that is choosing to stand with us?
Because honestly instead of doing research and using the products that works for them, a lot of them are just grabbing whatever they see is popular. Then act confused and tricked when it has a negative reaction to their hair
@@missjackiierdz clearly there is a confusion. They are leaving negative reviews complaining about things that are actually beneficial to black hair. So obviously this product has consistently better results with certain hair types.
@Yes Sir Then perhaps the company needs to be changing some labels? How is this other woman's fault exactly? If something says it's for all hair types and my hair falls out then I have every right to leave a reviews based on my experience 🙃
@@yessir6618 negative reviews exist for every company that makes a product. Its expected. Imagine how many products Ive tried and I said I didnt like it. Omg all of sudden that means its a bad thing. No. It's literally just something that either 1, i didnt like. 2, i bought to see how my hair will react. 3, I wanted to get something out of my comfort zone. Online, it literally states its for ALL types of hair. Tell me where it says for "black" hair. She has a line for type 4 hair.. but never "black". Some white women have 4c hair
I’m black but personally I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. Like I just don’t think it’s right for people to be like theses products are for white people and theses are for black. I feel like if white people like the product or it works well for there hair then so what. Instead of people making products only for black people or only for white people, they should make products for everyone instead of segregating hair products.
Thank you. Stop shaming others for wanting to trh something that may make their scalp and hair healthier. We all have hair. We are all part of the human race. I don’t get it
Not everyone's hair is the same, there should never be a one size fits all when it comes to hair. That would be a disaster. It's not hard to understand
It’s a big deal because its not a matter of just saying this product is for this group and this one is for another group and it’s not as simple as just making beauty & hair products that will be beneficial for every group of people skin & hair because there’s a fundamental differences in each ethnic group’s skin & hair. Each group has specific skin & hair needs that has to be met in order to be at it’s best & healthiest, therefore to accomplish that, products has to be specifically formulated for each group. Sadly for over 100 years companies has made thousands of skin & hair products that were not formulated for black women and unfortunately in many cases when black women used those products they have experienced undesirable results and or damage. And that’s the same thing some of these white women are claiming to have experienced when using Mielle and other products which were formulated for black women and not them. Yet they go online and post negative videos about Mielle and other products made for black women. ANALOGY: That’s like putting diesel fuel in your car and then complain about how it damaged the engine, it damaged the engine because it wasn’t formulated for your car’s engine it was formulated for trucks with Diesel engines not cars with gasoline engines.
Girl it’s a store. First come, first serve. Ain’t nobody selfish for going shopping. You should have either been there earlier or ordered it ahead of time
your kinda missing the point its that fact that a product made for people with 4a-c type hair is being brought by people with 1-2 type hair which makes it harder for black people . They then drive the business into the ground when its not built for them at all
@@BraydenT-w8vI've only had one bottle of this, and it was sent in my Allure beauty box. Why send a hair product that's only meant for one specific type of hair? I've always used mine to massage onto my scalp before washing. Also, I've seen this product in Ulta and every drugstore I've been to lately. Did they change the product? I hope not. I have thick hair with a dry scalp and this really helps.
That’s not what she’s trying to say, she’s saying that people that have straight hair have so much options to choose from but they decide to take the hair products that aren’t for their hair. And I have thick curly hair and it’s hard to find a good product for my hair so I completely agree with her in this.
"Our products " "their products ".. did I miss the "blacks only" sign?? Are you suggesting we bring that crap back??? I can't even believe people still behave like this..
The ours products and their products when you walk into a hair store, such a sally beauty store, or any other beauty store that you have there is aisles that is for color peoples hair only and then there’s also aisles that is for Caucasian people. they don’t have to say it’s for blacks only or whites only when you walk in and you see the product you know what aisle to go out on that is directed towards you.
Listen.... Products that work for white people DO NOT work for us! We cant use those products!! And the natural/black hair products sections are usually so much smaller than the "main" hair section, which usually caters to white hair
@Momo Mon'amie that does NOT mean that non-black people CAN'T shop for products in that section 🙄. That's just stupid. Not all products work for everyone and if someone finds a great product, they should freely get to purchase it regardless of what shelf they found it on. Ingredients know no race.
@@tvdlover7488 nah, I’m white and it works amazingly on my hair and a lot of my friends hair who are all sorts of ethnicities. Love the product and after a few years of use, my hair is incredible 😁 but thanks for the suggestion. I’ll just use a razor if I want the bald look 👍
nah, the video was saying if it dont work they shouldnt be complaining. It works for your hair thats why you should be buying it. Instead of thevideo person saying blacks they should of said curly or like thick hair types that are able to use the products@@jred3642

And yet, who made money for a half filled product that will be produced again? The owner. You do realize that is what buying and selling does. They bought it, it sells, if they like it, it will continue to sell. Yall want black owned companies but are mad because people are supporting a black company when it was a black woman Linda Lynn who said something negative towards the company and a drama broke out from the owners husband. 🤷♀️💁♀️
@@crystalmethany6286hat’s probably just for marketing. And don’t quote me on this but I heard someone say that the owners of the oil said that it isn’t recommended for people with non-kinky hair.
The product was mad for people with a specific hair type. Straight hair types have alllllll those products to wash their hair with but choose to sell out the ONE product that was made for black hair. Then when their hair falls out or gets messed up they wanna complain and forces a change in the ingredients of the product which will no longer suit the intended purpose.This has nothing to do with victimhood😂
It is not “victimhood” lol, if hair oil is made for a specific type of hair then it’s going to achieve a different thing. If you have lots of options to choose from, why would you choose a hair oil made for coils/curly hair then complain when it’s not working for you. Black ppl have been dealing with hair products that didn’t work for them for ages and now that they have something that works. Other hair types want to take over the little that they do have when it wasn’t meant for them.
@@funnybunny4932 the bottle said for all hair types. Entire comment is invalid. It is victimhood to take a (wrongly)perceived issue of hair type and turn it into a racial narrative all over preconceived notions and not reading. Be for real, this content creator assumes that because the creator of Mielle is black and includes black women in marketing, that all of her products are exclusively for black women and/or textured curly hair. So instead of reading a bottle of OIL, she assumes she shouldn’t have to, so her slanderous racially divisive narrative is good enough. No it is not and neither is you for repeating it.
Are you saying that white women or people that are not black can’t purchase your product but how would you feel if a white person made a product and said why are Black people buying it they shouldn’t be? You would get pissed
@@martinam7806What are you talking about. There arent aisles of products that cater just to blck people. Yall need to stop making dumb comparisons that arent based on reality. It DOES suck when companies change formulas to cater to other groups especially when they have a lot of other choices. These people are literally using the wrong products to be trendy.
@@martinam7806 Sorry to break it to you but the rest of us live in reality. When the majority buys a product, companies will change formulas to cater to the majority. It is absolutely against reality to act like as if people have the exact same hair texture. In America, the people there are descendants from mostly west Africans. They have a specific hair type that is very rare or completely absent in people of the majority group. So it is inappropriate to assume that they need the exact same products. Especially when they historically have been ignored as a market and have been forced to buy products from segregated aisle sections or stores. I mean those products are still separated in some stores. The only reason they’ve gotten more popular is because people have embraced their natural curly hair. So now those companies are changing formulas so they no longer work for them. So she 100% has a valid concern. It’s 100% valid to be frustrated about those changes. She’s not saying it should be illegal for them to buy those products. She’s just pointing out the negative consequences of catering.
@@martinam7806 Also, that company literally had to release a statement saying they wouldn’t change their formulas. So clearly, it’s an actual concern that even the industry understands. So stop gaslighting everyone.
I understand where you are coming from but regardless I'm super annoyed by this whole "them and us" as if we aren't all human. This just divides US even more...
Don't say you understand and say but "we're all humans". Yes we are but we're still all different and that's what make everyone unique. We've been having problems with products that doesn't cater to our hair for years, just because it's not made for us. When we do make products for us it's always being bought out and changed to not fit our hair or skin. Can us kinky/curly haired women have a couple options over the hundreds of options for straight haired women?
this is like saying a firefighter should be able to walk into a hospital and preform surgery despite not having the proper training because "we're all human". firefighters dont belong in the operating room, surgeons do and thats okay because we're all humans but humans are different.
I just bought a bottle and I’m white. Cause I just thought “ouuu rosemary, isn’t that what all the influencers are pushing for hair growth?” So yeah I just put it in my head lol
I have straight hair and use the oil for the psoriasis on my scalp, and it helps so much. Please don't spread hate and try to separate who can or can't use what. At the end of the day, if they change the formula you could always purchase another Rosemary oil from another black owned brand and actually put love and support towards the community.
The entitlement of your comment reeks of whiteness... if BLACK women built the brand, the company made the product for BLACK hair in mind, then you want to use it and say 'well it's too oily, too thick, blah, blah, blah' and they turn around and change the formula to cater to a people that didn't build their brand, then it starts to feel like these 'brands' are using us to get hot, that's selfish AF when you literally have whole aisles of product for yt hair.
@@brownsugako7772so wait what you’re saying is… that whatever race the owner of the company is that made the product… is the only race the company can sell the product to? Doesn’t matter what hair type they made the product for, or the fact people who live in this society have the freedom to buy what they want, no that doesn’t matter. Only thing that matters is if you’re not black, because the owner is black, then you can’t buy the products? Regardless of your hair type?
@@brownsugako7772, i can agree on some of this, however this product is for all hair types(it says on that on their website). This oil has many ingredients in it that are so important to scalp health. now dont get me wrong, the people comapling of it being thick and oily sound unreasonable. This oil is for thick hair. It is marketed for people who have thick and curly hair. Hense black hair. However this product isnt just for black people. It can be used on anyone at their own risk. And this person has a good point of it helping with their scalp problem. As it has active ingredients that provide help for that. I use this oil for many things. And yes I have thick curly hair. Also yes there are isles of hair products marketed for white hair. However almost every one of them is bad for their hair. So who could blame them for wanting somethng without t.- hat. If it doesnt make their hair weighed down or oily who cares?
I am dominican I have been using rosemary oil based products for decades, I even make my own oil. That's not a black African American exclusive product
Why do we as black women think we own all rights to these products though? If a product works for my hair I’m buying it. Whether it’s for white, Asian, muppet wool hair I don’t care. Same for skin care. If it works for you it works for you. Many of those “white” hair products work for my hair too and I’m buying them. Seems reasonable to me imo
I bought this oil for my hair, I didn’t know it was not for white peoples hair. I have alopecia so I’m always looking for something to help that. Would someone please explain what the difference is as far as how it affects white vs black hair. I’m not here to argue it, just trying to understand cause the alopecia thing is very real and a constant battle to fight.
@@corinnematthews5636 The main reason is that it weighs down your hair if it’s straight. It can also make your hair look really greasy. The same goes for a black person whose hair is straightened. It’s not even actually a race thing but a straight hair thing. It’s made specifically for textured hair. There’s a lot of cases of straight hair falling out so if your hair is straight I probably wouldn’t recommend. Hope that helps ❤
For real I can't with these people and their victim mentality like how old is she? At some point you learn the world doesn't owe you shit just because you paint yourself as a victim at every opportunity
@@lucille_2438 no ones painting themselfs as victims shes just saying its unfair how white people are using black hair producs in there hair when its not made for them and then leaving bad reviews saying it doesnt work ofc is doesnt work bc its not made for your kind of hair so no one is pai ting themselfs as victims
@@aaliyahgrinnon8760 but girl that's my whole point. This is regarding being butthurt about ROSEMARY OIL. SCALP OIL. How is that an only black hair product? Every race has people wanting to grow their hair out and things like alopecia, hormonal thinning, thinning related to age etc
@@aaliyahgrinnon8760 and besides that how immature and self centered is it to claim a hair product can ONLY be used by your race? It's so childish and daft. It's almost comical.

@@ADesolateAngeldamn and you really thought you did something by spreading negativity and continuing with the same racist views of segregation of races, even through products and haircare..
I am white and have pin straight hair, last year I have lost a great amount of hair like in clumps thanks to a shampoo you’re coincidentally showing in that aisle. Mielle Rosemary oil, rosemary water and caffeine treatment literally saved my hair, and in about 8 months of use I am back to normal. Of course is greasy and of course you shampoo it out after 3/4 hours. I am glad seeing some white girls losing hair makes you all giggle of satisfaction, maybe stop for a second and think that they started using it because they had an excessive effluvium problem which is by the way the reason why when you start the treatment you keep losing hair for a while. According to your foolish statement I shouldn’t have got the oil for the sake of the black community which must be one of the most idiotic things I’ve ever heard in my life. By the way the vast majority of products you show in that aisle are cheap and low quality especially OGX and Fructis. Take care.
Why are we blaming none-back women when the “issue” is popularity? I’m black too and I don’t see the need to get so petty. I don’t know where “it’s getting changed” is coming from cause as far as I know this is a black owned company and it makes products designed for your curls. It didn’t ruin your life or anything it didn’t say “sold out forever”
@Hadassahh Reyes Yea, that's the point. She saying that's what happens because they complain and so she showed how they complain about that one specific product. She's stating that it might happen just like how it has with other products. She's also saying they don't have many products for curly tight hair basically because *insert reasons she listed*.
The reason people change their formulas for example Cantu is because they initially have harsh products that even effect black women’s scalps harmful ingredients such as silicones and alcohol. It has nothing to do with skin tone it has everything to do with scalp sensitivity.
@Hadassahh Reyes You missed the mark again lol and I don't know why your comment won't appear, but I see it through my notifications. The other products became worse for tight curls after they changed the ingredients 😑 did you not watch the video. They did not become better for tight curls afterwards, only inclusive for other hair types. I personally don't care, but don't lie about what was mentioned in the video (it was not ill intended) it was made to bring awareness on something that impacts people of tighter curl pattern.
It isn't about a culture. It's using a good product to post bad reviews about a company because it caters more to a certain hair type than 1 meaning straight.
They actually do. This product was specifically catered to people with a certain texture. And certain clothing like dashikis or regalia do belong and are apart of certain cultures. 🤷🏽♀️
Y’all need to watch her first video and look at her comment. The issue is not that they’re selling it out, its that people are putting pressure on the company to change its formula which leaves black people without the proper products for their hair, something that has happened several times. Having to change our product because it just doesn’t apply to us anymore sucks because finding new ones always costs a lot of money, time, and experimentation. White people (who don’t have the hair texture, don’t even try that we all know a majority don’t have curly hair like us don’t whataboutism this) have so many products catered to them and yet try to use one that just isn’t meant for them and many of the big companies buy out smaller black-owned brands which then have to change their formula to reach “a wider consumer base.” Just because you don’t know about the issue doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist…
Hope all ts falls out to tf Edit:I’m sorry to everyone I was fighting with I didn’t realize that’s what u guys was on my ass abt and I apologize to the original commenter I must’ve been in a pissy ass mood when I made this comment
^^ Envious and malicious bc she has beautiful hair, huh?! How nefarious can u be? Lots of black women wear Peruvian & Brazilian hair so are they pretending to be Latina bc that's our actual hair not even a style or a product! My hair is nothing like a black person's, and I see them wearing my hair pretending to have soft & flowy VS curls, straight silky hair, or non-kinky & soft luscious curls! It must beautiful and preferable over their own hair texture which they hide with other race's hair while getting mad bc non-blacks use a product like this or wear breads??😂 The hypocrisy is much‼ Meanwhile, a hair product or hairstyle is for everyone whether it's Dove or this brand. At least, my people don't wear other races hair while claiming cultural apropriation and the "blueprint" of races (def racist). Oh well. Racists and envious people will reap that which they sow.
SMH!! 🤦🏻♀️ RACISM IN ALL SHAPE AND COLORS! Can we just purchase a product we like without adding a particular race. Is a good product, and the company who created this did a good job creating something that can help other race besides black.

Your race is irrelevant. What is relevant to this discussion is your hair type. Women with afro-textured hair naturally have diverse hair types from bone straight and course to tiny coils and fine and everything in between. Women with euro hair textures have hair that is completely different. You can rant all about how this oil is the only thing that works for you, but what you are failing at understanding is, it's not the oil that is helping you, it is the ROSEMARY ESSENTIAL OIL ITSELF that is DROPPED IN THE HEAVY NUT OILS THE MIELLE OIL IS MADE FROM that is helping you. You can get the same benefits if you take a sprig of rosemary oil and put it in a water spray bottle and spray your hair with it. In fact, you would have even more benefit because you don't have to wash rosemary essential oil water out of your hair. This oil is a heavy nut butter oil which causes people with euro hair textures to have to wash it out when it's designed to be applied to the hair daily and worn until wash day. Wash day for black women's hair is on average anywhere from one week to 3 weeks because our hair doesn't produce any oils at all. That is the difference. You can literally go to your grocery store and buy rosemary essential oil and put it in your shampoo, your conditioner, or in a water bottle. But for some reason (we know why) you buy a hair oil, use it improperly just to get the effects of the essential oil. The only way people with afro texture hair can get the benefit of Rosemary Oil is when it's suspended in heavy nut oils because we need a carrier oil to make it penetrate our hair shaft and scalp. Our hair and our scalps are not the same even though you think that's what equality means.
@@yeahaboutthatthough3656 nobody said shit about their hair being the same. And her hair isn't like other white women's, she has a fucking medical condition. You're making assumptions based on her race despite the fact that she straight up said she has a very specific condition that affects her hair type and growth. "Black hair" isn't the only hair that can benefit from this shit. And most "white" products don't really go for hair health anyways. If you look into "non-black" cultures, they all have their own hair care "secrets" full of shit they had access to and work in their hair. And NONE of it is this wash daily with harsh cleaners bullshit. Yeah the shit works for her, get tf over it. No she can't just use the shit everyone else is using, frankly they probably shouldn't be using it either. It's just black women seem to get the most struggles when it comes to everything and as a result or forced to figure shit out the most. They know how to maintain their hair because it's so different from everyone else's. And while people using black products because they are trendy and NOT because they need them is fucked and a result of societal attitudes towards everything black. This is one example of it working. Quit assuming shit about people's hair based on their race, gatekeeping haircare ain't gonna help shit. Next you're gonna start bitching about white chemo patients wearing wigs because "non-black hair grows faster" or some shit. If it works, it works. The problem are the people who are buying shit that DON'T work for them and ruining for the people it does work for, something that correlates to race but is not necessarily tied down to it. If you think diying is such an easy great thing to do, then why don't you just make this shit yourself? Not all black women, just you.
Bc white peoples have more products then our brownies. But still choose to get brown peoples hair which means we don’t have anything because of y’all greedy ass. 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
I don’t think my eyes have ever rolled into the back of my head as they did watching this. There is something seriously fundamentally wrong with your perception.
@@jazlyn2721 id prefer to listen to his opinion than someone who uses somebodys name on an argument. Your name is jazlyn why would anyone wanna hear your opinion 🤭
I don’t think the product is “catered” to a specific color of skin. Please stop with the racism. We all bleed red and we’re made in the image of the same creator who loves ALL of His creation.
I may be late, but it's not the skin that's different. It's the hair texture that is. Of course, there are races other than black with textured hair, but they're buying out products that typically cater to textured hair as people with pin straight, non textured hair, complaining their hair is oily, and then pressuring the brand to change the formulation of the product. The result of that is people with textured hair having one less hair care option that caters to their hair type. And there's already not many brands that work for textured hair. Meanwhile, people with straight hair have millions of brands that are formulated for their hair type, and those with textured hair do not. This has happened many times with other brands. Those with straight hair start using textured hair products, and their hair falls out, gets weighed down, or is too oily, and then leave bad reviews, pressures the company to change their formulation, and then those with textured hair loses yet again another brand that caters to their hair. And trust me, there are not many. The bottom line is that textured hair and non textured hair require different routines to thrive. There aren't many brands that make products that are good for textured hair.
@@IDontKnow-pf6en I'm assuming it's a brand. If not, I'm assuming its a sunscreen for melaninated skin, since melaninated skin isn't the same as unmelaninated skin.
@@IDontKnow-pf6en it’s a sunscreen made specifically for people with darker skin tones. A lot of regular sunscreen leaves a white tint on skin that’s darker than medium brown, so that company made a sunscreen specifically for black and dark skinned POC that worked as a moisturizer and didn’t look white on the skin.
@@madamdmadam7542 well people should stop fucking up their hair with products they can't use, that's not good for growth either. It's one part the fetishization of blackness and two part these people are buying shit that isn't for their hair a d getting mad about it because they didn't actually research their haircare. Frankly most white hair products and hair care practices suck ass because we've not only decidedly to erase other people's cultures, but our own as well. Which includes hair care. We really do not need to be washing our hair daily with harsh shampoos. We really do need to apply some oils to our ends. And we REALLY need to quit fetishizing other cultures in lieu of researching our own hair care. From our own protective stylings to our bathing routines, we have just shifted to whatever makes capitalism the most money which is fucking up our hair and buying everything to fix it while constantly using it. It's just that Whiteness is a social concept and thus not all of us are the same, so some of us could find som utility in using these products. And if we base it on that, then you have a much better result. White hair care does need improvement, we do need to stop just listening to advertisements/trends rather than doing actual research, and we need to then shop based our needs rather than gatekeeping products based on race.
I hate this, this happened a while back with all the Miss Jessie's (especially the multicultural curls) and I was steamin mad. I'm Black/Latino and It's hard enough having our "ethnic" hair products get put behind security walls while Caucasians products DON'T..and now this sh*t is happening more and more
@@hellokittydimaggioshampoos created to dry up oils in oily, nasty, stringy hair…will do just that. Black people hair is like plants. Our hair needs moisture in order for it to grow. Pick up a book
I’m white and I use this product. Not only one race is allowed to use this product. Everyone can use it as long as it works for your hair. And for the record, people are not being selfish. It’s called using what works for you.
That’s not what black ppl think you guys have a bunch of shampoo that gets advertised on TVS when’s the last time you’ve seen a shea moisture? None exactly!
Y’all need to watch her first video and look at her comment. The issue is not that they’re selling it out, its that people are putting pressure on the company to change its formula which leaves black people without the proper products for their hair, something that has happened several times. Having to change our product because it just doesn’t apply to us anymore sucks because finding new ones always costs a lot of money, time, and experimentation. White people (who don’t have the hair texture, don’t even try that we all know a majority don’t have curly hair like us don’t whataboutism this) have so many products catered to them and yet try to use one that just isn’t meant for them and many of the big companies buy out smaller black-owned brands which then have to change their formula to reach “a wider consumer base.” Just because you don’t know about the issue doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
@@Xoxo.Kayla2that’s bc u have curly hair 🤦🏽♀️ no one said only black ppl can use it, only if u have curly hair which is mostly every black person which is the she fixated it on black ppl
@@Xoxo.Kayla2that's amazing but that's not what this video is about lmao.. it's about white people complaining about how it doesn't work for their obviously straight hair. If that doesn't apply to you good for you..i-
The thing is we don’t want racism but make videos like this about other races. If anyone wants to use it and it worked for them and has shared that with the world it’s okay they are just products. Just do you. If you want to end racism it got to start with you.These are products for anyone to use .
@@haruharumada it’s true but why not just say that, not black this or white this. It’s hair and they’re all types of it not specifically to blacks that have thick and tough hair. I get where she is coming from but i just wish that people with platforms like this use it wisely. I hope we can start not seeing color and address the the problem only.
@@haruharumada there is no way to cater a natural oil to a particular hair type. Oil will do what God created it to do. It works on a scalp. Just because a black woman bottled ingredients doesn't give other black people the right to respond with such vitriol to others because they are not black. This behavior is reprehensible. I'm black.
@@haruharumada but you are speaking out of fear. So far there is no proof that the company that bought the mielle brand plans to change the formula. For all we know, they might have started the marketing trend on tik tok to help their sales of the company they just bought. P.G. is a large corporation and can churn out the products with no fear of shortages. Empty shelves can be refilled. If they are getting great sales on the product as is, why would they change it? Also we live in a society with others. Do you ever wonder what the effect of black women discovering henna, amla, and other Ayurveda herbs might have meant for middle eastern and Indian women? Did it create a shortage for them because the US market was more profitable for the growers? We can not get this hostile and fearful when a product is found by another demographic. It's ugly and it just reveals the amount of insecurity black girls have about themselves for no reason. There is no need. Mielle is made of rosemary and oils. It is not unique. Come off the edge. You will have rosemary oil and other helpful products for your hair. If you want to give it up, there will be another line to move to. What we have seen is an endless array of product lines catering to natural hair . Many we have abandoned for the next new thing, whether they worked for us or not. There is not a drought of products not even for 4c girls. There isn't, so just have some confidence about yourself.
if you think this is racism, you're racist asf and completely ignored everything she said to victimize yourself. allow me to paraphrase what she said so you can understand better: black people have special hair that needs special care, and there arent many products out there for that. with this one product that works very well for them becoming popular with white people, the company is bound to change the formula to work for their new buyers and not the original black buyers. us white people have all the products in the world to treat our hair, and yet we choose to colonize black hair products that were never meant for our typical hair types. hope this helps!
one of the racist videos i've ever seen, These black girls are very bad, imagine the cancellation, if a girl of another color made comments like that, all the time I see videos of this type of girls of color referring badly to products such as not black girl friendly or that are not inclusive blahblah, but When it is their product, you cannot make any type of comments against it, you represent what is wrong in this world, they are absurd
Exactly. Everywhere I go it's sold out or wayyy to expensive. Like 15 dollars. I'm just going to make my own and reuse the container. This is so irritating because my hair and scalp actually found an oil that worked wonders .
@@Jashera ohhh that’s so smart could I know exactly which oil you personally use? I ran out of my mine and now I just have the little bottle and I can already see my hairs not happy without it and it’s only been a week while I was waiting for more CAUSE I CANT FIND IT NO WHERE :( it sucks cause I finally found a hair oil that stuck and sealed in moisture for my hair. I’ve done natural hair masks and used olive oil and saw similar results but I don’t know if I should keep that in my hair indefinitely
@@kabaribiah6419Who has many products whyte or blck? You have got to be kidding me, we have a very limited selection for blck hair. Just like how she showed in the video of a mile long aisle of whyte hair care products. We have a very small section & It’s been that way for YEARS. Now all of a sudden straight hair girlies are using the products that are made for OUR hair then have the audacity to leave one star reviews and trash the company because it doesn’t work for them. What are y’all not understanding in these comments my GOODNESS.🙄🙄🙄
This is why I started making my own hair oils and deep conditioner treatments at home. They switch up the formulas on us, knowing that we need different things for our hair. If they are catering to us, they would stay about us.
This is why I buy real black owned hair products that aren’t factory made. They’re cheaper and mainly cater to my 4c hair which are the hardest products to find. I stop trusting those companies a long time ago. Once they get on we get left behind. And yes these girls are being selfish because there are plenty of products for curly hair that aren’t aimed towards black hair go buy those
That sounds petty to me (coming from a black woman with a fro), the company should produce more if the product is getting so popular, and that’s about it
True a lot of products go out but in this case, it’s a little different because the people that are selling it out Don’t have curly hair whatsoever and the people who actually have curly hair which this hair product is supposed to be used for is being changed into something different. And even though it seems like it’s not a big change, it is a big change.
Yessss. This reminds me of the creator of Honeypot feminine hygiene products. Made by a black woman for EVERY woman, but she wanted to show black women in a positive light how to boss up and the be the BEST they can be. Her products are being sold in Target. YT women were all in their feelings about a black woman wanting black girls and women to feel empowered. They decided to buy out her products and then go on TikTok and lie and complain about her products being trash and leave horrible reviews in hopes of distracting other women from buying and supporting this woman. Some YT females can be HORRIBLE.
They are selfish 😂 for wanting to try a hair product ? 😂 I thought we wanted them to buy from us ? I thought we wanted black businesses to grow ? The issue is further down the line with the companies not having any integrity and changing formulas and excluding us
@@milflover6969 it makes no sense to be unhappy further down the line, when we already know what’s coming. individuals who have no business using a product for texturized hair are as much to blame as the business itself. Y’all act like black consumers haven’t been down this route with other black businesses? Multiple parties are to be blamed not just the business.
@@Anne_one … you fr? Instead of changing the formula they could have introduced a new product for finer hair and kept both types of customers. It’s a hair product. You’re really gatekeeping hair products? This product did work for many people from different backgrounds. They made the choice to change the formula. That’s not on the consumer. Just stop
Yes, they are selfish and yes, it is the company's fault as well. Both can be true at the same time. They're selfish in the sense that they're taling up the product that's for someone else who don't have many or any options when you have hundreds to chose from. It's the same way how a non vegetarian would be selfish for eating all of the veggie options at an event. You can do what you want, but some things are selfish because you're only thinking of yourself and not other...hence being selfish
So I guess you’re gonna remain oblivious to the fact that in AMERICA black people have had limited products catered to their hair for a LONG TIME? And you want to act oblivious to that. It is selfish to purchase products that are in limited quantity towards a specific racial group with very different hair
Just because they cater to your hair, doesn't mean others who are not black can't use it. Products are out there for everyone to try and enjoy. Who is really being selfish 😊
@@Keenidythen tell the company to produce more, not tell white women to not behave like normal customers... the fuck!!!.. re you not supposed to allow black owned business to grow.
Hair products are hair products like no one owns them and if they're sold out of something maybe you came at the wrong time like last time I checked its not illegal to buy what we want
@giginsengx I took her advice actually and looked at the reviews... didn't see those just saw some happy customers of all ethnicities... Americans are just getting more divided than ever and we look like a joke to the rest of the world. Facts... look into that.
@@breebubssssssssyou do know rosemary oil is used everywhere right? And it can very well be used in any hair. Wtf do you mean "catered to black people?" I though it was for hair not skin.
@@brownsugrr I said what I said. Stop being bothered by the the semantics. I said what I said why are you butt hurt. I could care less about this product. I make my own. Who cares if it’s now a products that cater to all hair types not just 4 c hair, Or other ethnic groups. Stop being so uptight. Not all black folk have 4 c hair. I’ll say it again rosemary oil is for anyone hair race or creed, Mint too. All herbs find which one you like and works for your hair type not a race type.
Some people don’t know how to read the instructions either. YOU NEED TO WASH IT OFF AFTER 30 MINUTES. Only people with very coily or textured hair can leave it on, because their hair can easily absorb the oil. That oil is extremely strong and can cause your hair to fall off if you leave it on overnight or for wayyy too long. If you want something that you can leave on your hair, then get an actual rosemary plant and boil it in some water, let it sit till it’s cooled down, and apply it to your hair with a spray bottle.
hair texture isn’t the same as hair porosity, hair porosity is how easily the hair absorbs products due to the cuticles being either open, high porosity, or closed, low porosity. The higher the porosity the easier and the more heavy oils you can use on your hair, the lower the more lightweight oils you need to use. Someone with low porosity curly hair can absorb oils harder than someone with high porosity straight hair. Therefore; an oil for a certain hair texture doesn’t mean it’s a one size fits all. It’s just about porosity and what works for you.
It's just rosemary oil. Rosemary oil is a well known oil for hair strengthening and growth, among other things. Anyone can use it. Thin hair or hair loss can happen to anyone. Yes, I see that the bottle packaging looks to be marketed towards women with wavy/textured hair, but it doesn't mean it's exclusively for women with that certain type of textured hair. It's just rosemary oil, made from the rosemary plant, a herb and anyone can use.
Thanks i didn't want to say anything 😑 Worse part we black girls be doing white people hair (silk press,ext )its crazy We equal if a white girl have the shmoney to buy the product then so be it 🤕 This is racist in a way ... so white people can buy this and not that Im just saying my peace
Thank you. Im middle eastern but I have very thin hair and it always falls out and i use this to help it grow back and its been growing it. Rosemary oil is for everybody sometimes it works for people sometimes it doesnt. Its not just for one race.
“it’s not made for them” I literally use this and am half white and it does wonders for my hair. Races don’t own hair products, anybody can buy what they want.
Thank you for this. Didn't even know this was happening. So ridiculous! Everytime Black people get anything. Here come the others tryna take advantage.
Tell me you’re racist without saying your racist. We know damn well if a white person said “use your own hair care” to a black person all hell would break loose. This goes both ways. Don’t expect equality and then exclude a specific race just because it fits your narrative. We come in all different shapes, sizes and colors. Not one hair routine is the same as the next. Support black owned products, yes, but don’t be spreading hate. If a brand changes it’s formula to cater to a specific race, then was it really interested in helping or was it only interested in the money?? Think about it. Remember where you put your money matters.
If you compare everything you say and do to black people that’s another way of expressing your racism… You do not have the same circumstances as blacks people but desperately wanna act as if you do so you can compare. Yourself to them… That’s the actual racism hun
it’s not selfish. it’s their own money and they have the right to buy whatever they want. we can’t tell people not to buy anything that isn’t catered towards them just because it’s becoming less available for you. that makes you the selfish one.
Truth. It’s always a black and white thing. It’s like get over yourself. I know what she means that not every person can benefit from this- but still. She is race baiting.
Black hair products are for BLACK HAIR! If you can't use it find another brand, it was working for us, why do they have to change it to work for y'all self MF's that got a whole aisle in Target, Walmart and Walgreens of your hair products!
She literally called people selfish for using an oil which doesn’t specify on the bottle “for black hair” Chill out woman, it’s not a darker shade foundation, it’s literally oil for scalp (and you’re not the only kind of people who have a scalp)
That’s not the problem. The problem is that when it doesn’t work for them, they post negative reviews until it gets changed so that it will, which comes at the expense of people who didn’t have any other option but are now confronted with a formula that has changed to benefit people who already have isles and isles full of products that work for them but got pissed off over the one thing that doesn’t and called it a bad product instead of just acknowledging that it wasn’t made for their hair type. It’s really not that hard to understand.
Girl until your in the situation which you will never be, shut up and sit this one out. You yourself don’t have issues finding hair products for your hair type. Stay the hell out of our business.
I'm white and I've oiled my scalp with oils like this since I was around 10 and could do my own hair....if you think white people can't use those products because they're for "black people" and "black hair types" you're literally saying "you're white you can't use it"....but if someone straight up came out and said that all of those hair products were for white people and black people can't use them because they're black it would be literal war like I don't understand why ppl throw a fit like this then just don't understand why they receive sm backlash and hate for it....I get what you mean by the products being sold out and bad reviews constantly posted but that's not your choice to make lmao....u can't really do anything abt those white girls posting bad reviews on Mielle and pronouncing it wrong. If you don't like it, don't use it, simple as that. Posting this type shit on the INTERNET to rant abt it is so mf immature and flat out makes u look like a child 💀 grow up babe.
most of the products are for white hair only. Most makeup brands are for lighter skins only. They are not inclusive. But the moment us black people/ kinky curly textured folk get products that work for our hair, the non-curly/kinky haired people take it for themselves. She said blacks because most if not all black people have curly 4 type hair. SO how about you learn on a topic before spewing fricking nonsense?
These comments suck. Too much hate over some damn hair products. Guess what, I can never find anything for my hair type, ever. What do I do? Go online and find it, and buy it. It exists somewhere. Stop the victimization, it gets annoying. And stop trying to push opposing views just because it pisses you off. Debate is one thing, hate is another. Anyway, God bless y’all
i’m mixed and i totally disagree with this. just because they’re hair is as thick as ours means they can’t use the product? THIS OIL has been viral, idc what color i am, IM GOING TO GET IT. The bottle also doesn’t say, “ONLY FOR THICK -COURSE HAIR, CAUTION FOR STRAIGHT HAIR”
Non American here, we all use rosemary oil on our hair, it's the best for helping growth, its not a racist product, its for everyone with thinning hair or growth problems.
It's OK, the rest of the world knows this is just an 'African American' problem. Some Americans are just insane, narcissistic and obsessed with race. Of course rosemary oil is used all over the world, Americans just think they're special.
What are you talking about? Please explain what you not being American has to do with literally anything she mentioned in the video? Nobody said it was a ‘racist’ product, we are simply saying how hair products catered to our unique & specific hair textures are constantly being changed and bought out by women with naturally straight hair which MOST if not ALL products are already catered to. Stop making up false scenarios to suit your ‘anti-woke’ agenda. Either stay on topic or don’t speak at all.
@aliaa ‘ ♡ your response is exactly why I mentioned being non American. I'm a poc that uses the product mentioned but not black American. Your response is rude, ignorant, aggressive and gate keeping , get a passport and travel a bit 😉 or do your man a favour and get him one 😆

@@Alianahamson please calm down, the commenter seems like they weren’t trying to offend you. But gatekeeping a product just because of someones race is racist and also assuming every non-black person has straight hair. This commenter could’ve brought up America because wokeness is mostly only present there, which is partially causing this unneeded gatekeeping of a rosemary hair oil.
I’m a white girl with extremely curly hair… I just started using this and it really helps my curls not be frizzy I recommend it to people with CURLY hair NOT straight! So I totally agree!
Idk why people get mad at companies for selling their products to people. From a business standpoint, it makes sense to sell to as much people as possible, regardless of race. That’s why I’ve seen women of all races (not just white or black) use these products.
@@brianalacount293 well the bottle says for all hair types so what is the point? How are these women buying the product in the wrong when the backside says it is for all hair types??? If anything this RUclipsr here ignoring that one easy detail then going on a tirade about how non black people cant buy black ppl products points to her urgency tj bash non black ppl every chance she gets smh.
When are we going to stop gatekeeping everything and just let people (and businesses) do what they want? With this kind of logic, ALL of these products catering to Black women are going to run out of business after receiving profits from like 10% of the market instead of the entire market itself. And it’s a huge stretch to play a couple clips of white women trying this product out and then claim that there’s no MO in stores because white people are taking them all.
Sometimes people forget that Black people ARE and minority in America, and that means that reaching to the other races market is as great business move
This is not something to be upset over...seriously. It's a waist of your energy. I'm sorry, but I think this is so silly. Any product can be purchased by anyone. If you had a product company, you would want EVERYONE to buy it. Most of these products are not even good for you. Buy 100% pure oils like sweet almond oil, argon oil, rosehip seed oil, and many more, and make your own mixture, if it bothers you so much. You are concerned with having it, so you can review it on your channel. I think you are being selfish right now...honestly.
But they do have this whenever you go to a store and you and search for product for your hair. It is separated they don’t have to say if you’re not black, don’t buy it it’s literally separated and you can know when you walk in the aisles that this is for Black people and this is for Caucasian people they don’t have to say it, because the aisles clearly states that which is for whom..
@@frankiemckane6314 girl they want to be blind and act like they don’t see it. They have a whole 2 aisle of whites only products where we will get half a shelf for coloreds
the crazy thing is all those other products are made for yt folks hair but litterally you put it on textured hair and the hair falls out and for decades what black folks were doing were just accepting it and making their own and not complaining . sociial media has ruined us.
@@frankiemckane6314 there’s a separate section in the grocery store for Mexican foods, am I not allowed to buy those because I’m not Mexican? Same for Chinese foods. The product literally says on the bottle for all hair types and textures.
Rosemary oil is good for hair growth. So ppl can use it on their scalp.. but use it as a treatment a few hours before washing if it weighs the hair down too much. Walgreens and Ulta also carry this brand! And Amazon. Hope you find it!
The product not being on the shelf is the stores fault, not the consumer's fault. The store only buys enough product to keep up with what is actually sold, so if there is an increase in purchases of the product and the store runs out, the store does not order it until the next shipment date. They don't just keep the product coming in to the store if they're not selling.
Please stop gatekeeping hair products and hairstyles! You ask non black individuals to support black owned businesses and products and then criticize us when we do so, at this point we just can’t win! You are silently advocating for segregation when you tell white women they cannot use black owned products. If they want to use products that are not meant for their hair let them! They are still hopefully contributing to purchasing a black owned product from a black owned business. Furthermore not all white people have the same texture of hair, not all of us are 100% white what about those of us who are mixed? Not a fan of this kind of content, sorry not sorry!
Some people clearly didn’t watch my previous video on this topic. In that video, I said that I understand there are many non-black woman who have textured hair and these videos are not for them. And for the people saying “ the company can just make more” you’re not understanding when white people take an interest in black products the company changes the formula to cater to them. And we can no longer use those things. And I meant what I said it’s selfish. They’ve always had hundreds of brands for their hair so you do not need this product even though you can buy it.
Where can I go to view and order your supplies?
Little Sister,
You are right. This is what happened to Cantu and some Shea Moisture lines. YT people you have you own products, been having for years, use it and leave black hair care products to people with textured hair! Thank you for "reading" my Ted talk!
So glad you are bringing attention to this matter.
Those other products I still can’t need I did research to find the hair out to help with my scalped and it helped of you really want to complain about it but your stuff online
I was literally trying to buy it too and it sold out online! Can't have nothing. Hopefully they don't change the formula
To be fair, Mielle did make a statement saying they were not changing the formula
🥳🥳🥳🥳
Rightfully so
Can you make a updated skincare routine hair please....I'm a new fan
They did? good! I make my own oils. but I do support when I can and this one has good reviews from our ppl. I'm glad be whew!! shea moisture was not as strong under pressure
Good! It's NOT for the obsessed fans hair. I hope everyone on their hair falls out.
I just can't get over the fact people are buying literal oil to put in their hair, then complaining that their hair feels oily.
Karen's will use anything us Black Queens use,,they are so 🫣😭nvm
😂😂
🤷♀️🤦♀️
The "Karens" are funny that way!
for real. i have an oily scalp but dry ends so i just use coconut oil. it’s not that hard to find oil for my hair so why in the world would i get oils made for black hair? that makes no sense to me. as a white person i realize most beauty products are catered to us and when we see other people getting including it’s almost as if we can’t handle it.
“My hair is falling out! This product sucks!”
Says the person with bone straight hair and viscosity that won’t take the product 💀

You're right
Yea Pantene, L’Oréal, TRESemmé, Nexxus, head & shoulders I use to use those and wondered why my hair wasn’t growing and was always dry 🙃
Shoot as long as the ingredients do no change idc, let their hair fall out 🤷🏽♀️. They always think they can copy or one up us, you can never beat the original 💅🏽.

because they changed it after receiving hate💀💀
If Mielle changes to fit this trend they don't deserve our business anyway. Which is why I no longer buy shea moisture.

I stopped using it too, but I didn't know they did that
Thankfully, Mielle released a statement saying they won’t be changing the formula. White folks gon learn today lol

Black hair products need to stand firm on their formulas, remembering their initial goal in creating the products in the first place.
RIGHT
Soo true who are they catering to. we will never have anything, if Black owned don’t what the initial goal was in the first place “BLACK HAIR CARE” now I’m scared to even use black hair products because nothing seems to be catered to us by us….

Use products according to your hair type, not your ethnicity. If you are white, Hispanic, Asian, etc. and it works for your hair, use it. If the mielle works for you, you are ok to use it. you are NOT selfish. If it doesn’t work for you, it may not be the product.

sorry this is a dumb take. if more people are using black hair products the stores will just make it more available. also rosemary oil is recommended for any woman with hair loss and plenty of white people and other races have female hair loss.

The problem is when they change their formulas to fit non black textures black peoples are the main consumers of company so if they want to do so they need to make a formula suitable for non Afro hair textures I believe the original owner sold her company as well so that could be it
Um, sweetheart I can totally tell you’ve never even taken a look at this product 😂there’s so many more oils in this that are considered carrier oils (if you don’t know what that means google it) aside from rosemary. The others are probably way too heavy for WW hair such as castor oil and that’s why it’s affected their hair the way it has.
no it doesn’t. these companies then change the formula to suit “all hair types” which then ruins are hair
Girl no. Look at shea moisture now. They literally changed the formulas on some of their best products os white women would use them. Now their once thick coily custard is basically water.

That's ridiculous! Everyone deserves healthy hair. The oil is for everyone. How does it feel to be racist?
kinda true ngl
Fr just bc it's the other way around doesn't mean it's OK 😡
The oil just works better on specific hair types, it comes from a black hair brand, therefore it would obviously work best on black hair. The issue is that, folks who are not black, in this case, white people, tend to use products made for black hair and negatively review them when it does not work for them. And there is no reason for the brand to be all inclusive, all hair types are different, and not everything is a one size fits all. Simply checking out the website and asking yourself, does it look like these products cater to my hair. If no, then at least make it known that you are using a product that does not seem to work with your hair type but you are trying it anyway. People slammed the product that was not even made for their hair type, like that makes no sense.
It's not racist that our hair type isn't your hair type. Get a life 😹
@@ruffledfilms5270that makes sense. I use Mielle for my hair and my brother uses it too. I’m glad it is a black people product and anyone that isn’t black not trying to be rude, but don’t use the product and do research on a product before buying it so people know what will work for their hair type.
Black women, you can make this oil for way cheaper. Just get some olive oil or carrier oil of choice and add dried rosemary, peppermint essential oil, and any other herbs of choice. Put in a glass jar in a dark place for a few weeks. Then strain when you’re ready to use into a bottle. You don’t need to support Mielle. You can make bigger batches of hair growth oil for less. ❤
I appreciate your knowledge and information
Thank you
Thanks! I make my own oil, plus I add biotin oil in mine. I think black women needs to stop catering to companies who continue to disrespect black women. These companies know what they're doing...it's all about money.
@@QueenEsther414 you should sell it I would definitely buy it !!
It’s about supporting Mielle they didn’t cause the problem. They never even marketed to those people. Why harm a black business that is choosing to stand with us?
Because honestly instead of doing research and using the products that works for them, a lot of them are just grabbing whatever they see is popular. Then act confused and tricked when it has a negative reaction to their hair
There's no confusion. It literally states for all hair types but she has a line that is for type 4 hair.
@@missjackiierdz clearly there is a confusion. They are leaving negative reviews complaining about things that are actually beneficial to black hair. So obviously this product has consistently better results with certain hair types.

@@yessir6618 negative reviews exist for every company that makes a product. Its expected. Imagine how many products Ive tried and I said I didnt like it. Omg all of sudden that means its a bad thing.

Online, it literally states its for ALL types of hair. Tell me where it says for "black" hair. She has a line for type 4 hair.. but never "black". Some white women have 4c hair
There's three texture for type four hair so I'm pretty sure that's why it says all hair types as in all hair type that has texture four hair
I’m black but personally I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. Like I just don’t think it’s right for people to be like theses products are for white people and theses are for black. I feel like if white people like the product or it works well for there hair then so what. Instead of people making products only for black people or only for white people, they should make products for everyone instead of segregating hair products.
Thank you. Stop shaming others for wanting to trh something that may make their scalp and hair healthier. We all have hair. We are all part of the human race. I don’t get it
Not everyone's hair is the same, there should never be a one size fits all when it comes to hair. That would be a disaster. It's not hard to understand
@@Ash-nk8lk so you mean to tell me that 4c hair and 1a hair is the same and need the same needs?
It’s a big deal because its not a matter of just saying this product is for this group and this one is for another group and it’s not as simple as just making beauty & hair products that will be beneficial for every group of people skin & hair because there’s a fundamental differences in each ethnic group’s skin & hair. Each group has specific skin & hair needs that has to be met in order to be at it’s best & healthiest, therefore to accomplish that, products has to be specifically formulated for each group. Sadly for over 100 years companies has made thousands of skin & hair products that were not formulated for black women and unfortunately in many cases when black women used those products they have experienced undesirable results and or damage. And that’s the same thing some of these white women are claiming to have experienced when using Mielle and other products which were formulated for black women and not them. Yet they go online and post negative videos about Mielle and other products made for black women.
ANALOGY: That’s like putting diesel fuel in your car and then complain about how it damaged the engine, it damaged the engine because it wasn’t formulated for your car’s engine it was formulated for trucks with Diesel engines not cars with gasoline engines.
FR also there are more important issues then hair oil like people dying

And yet, who made money for a half filled product that will be produced again? The owner. You do realize that is what buying and selling does. They bought it, it sells, if they like it, it will continue to sell. Yall want black owned companies but are mad because people are supporting a black company when it was a black woman Linda Lynn who said something negative towards the company and a drama broke out from the owners husband. 🤷♀️💁♀️

Victimhood isn't a profession; If you get upset about hair oil, get a helmet because life is going to kick your ass.
The product was mad for people with a specific hair type. Straight hair types have alllllll those products to wash their hair with but choose to sell out the ONE product that was made for black hair. Then when their hair falls out or gets messed up they wanna complain and forces a change in the ingredients of the product which will no longer suit the intended purpose.This has nothing to do with victimhood😂
It is not “victimhood” lol, if hair oil is made for a specific type of hair then it’s going to achieve a different thing.
If you have lots of options to choose from, why would you choose a hair oil made for coils/curly hair then complain when it’s not working for you. Black ppl have been dealing with hair products that didn’t work for them for ages and now that they have something that works. Other hair types want to take over the little that they do have when it wasn’t meant for them.
Candace , is that you ? 👀

Be for real, this content creator assumes that because the creator of Mielle is black and includes black women in marketing, that all of her products are exclusively for black women and/or textured curly hair.

@@martinam7806 Sorry to break it to you but the rest of us live in reality. When the majority buys a product, companies will change formulas to cater to the majority. It is absolutely against reality to act like as if people have the exact same hair texture. In America, the people there are descendants from mostly west Africans. They have a specific hair type that is very rare or completely absent in people of the majority group. So it is inappropriate to assume that they need the exact same products. Especially when they historically have been ignored as a market and have been forced to buy products from segregated aisle sections or stores. I mean those products are still separated in some stores. The only reason they’ve gotten more popular is because people have embraced their natural curly hair. So now those companies are changing formulas so they no longer work for them. So she 100% has a valid concern. It’s 100% valid to be frustrated about those changes. She’s not saying it should be illegal for them to buy those products. She’s just pointing out the negative consequences of catering.

We've been having problems with products that doesn't cater to our hair for years, just because it's not made for us. When we do make products for us it's always being bought out and changed to not fit our hair or skin. Can us kinky/curly haired women have a couple options over the hundreds of options for straight haired women?

I am glad seeing some white girls losing hair makes you all giggle of satisfaction, maybe stop for a second and think that they started using it because they had an excessive effluvium problem which is by the way the reason why when you start the treatment you keep losing hair for a while. According to your foolish statement I shouldn’t have got the oil for the sake of the black community which must be one of the most idiotic things I’ve ever heard in my life.
By the way the vast majority of products you show in that aisle are cheap and low quality especially OGX and Fructis.
Take care.
They are cheap and low quality but that's what non black people make. Not our fault
Why are we blaming none-back women when the “issue” is popularity? I’m black too and I don’t see the need to get so petty. I don’t know where “it’s getting changed” is coming from cause as far as I know this is a black owned company and it makes products designed for your curls. It didn’t ruin your life or anything it didn’t say “sold out forever”
Other black owned companies changed their formula that were designed for "black" hair/ tight curls.
But this is not one.
@Hadassahh Reyes Yea, that's the point. She saying that's what happens because they complain and so she showed how they complain about that one specific product. She's stating that it might happen just like how it has with other products. She's also saying they don't have many products for curly tight hair basically because *insert reasons she listed*.
The reason people change their formulas for example Cantu is because they initially have harsh products that even effect black women’s scalps harmful ingredients such as silicones and alcohol. It has nothing to do with skin tone it has everything to do with scalp sensitivity.
@Hadassahh Reyes You missed the mark again lol and I don't know why your comment won't appear, but I see it through my notifications. The other products became worse for tight curls after they changed the ingredients 😑 did you not watch the video. They did not become better for tight curls afterwards, only inclusive for other hair types. I personally don't care, but don't lie about what was mentioned in the video (it was not ill intended) it was made to bring awareness on something that impacts people of tighter curl pattern.
Cultures don’t own a brand or hairstyle clothing type
It isn't about a culture. It's using a good product to post bad reviews about a company because it caters more to a certain hair type than 1 meaning straight.
They actually do. This product was specifically catered to people with a certain texture. And certain clothing like dashikis or regalia do belong and are apart of certain cultures. 🤷🏽♀️
We need a black companies that will not sell out
I'll create the one!
Hold my mule....

@@Classicallyodd Yeah.....and?
Amen,remember Famous Amos Cookies?After selling, they were never the same.
Everyone wants their favorite restaurant to be empty until they find out they have to close down because of the lack of customers.
Perfect example
And then they still complain
Y’all need to watch her first video and look at her comment. The issue is not that they’re selling it out, its that people are putting pressure on the company to change its formula which leaves black people without the proper products for their hair, something that has happened several times. Having to change our product because it just doesn’t apply to us anymore sucks because finding new ones always costs a lot of money, time, and experimentation. White people (who don’t have the hair texture, don’t even try that we all know a majority don’t have curly hair like us don’t whataboutism this) have so many products catered to them and yet try to use one that just isn’t meant for them and many of the big companies buy out smaller black-owned brands which then have to change their formula to reach “a wider consumer base.” Just because you don’t know about the issue doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist…
Seriously
They didn't complain about lack of customers though did they

Lots of black women wear Peruvian & Brazilian hair so are they pretending to be Latina bc that's our actual hair not even a style or a product! My hair is nothing like a black person's, and I see them wearing my hair pretending to have soft & flowy VS curls, straight silky hair, or non-kinky & soft luscious curls! It must beautiful and preferable over their own hair texture which they hide with other race's hair while getting mad bc non-blacks use a product like this or wear breads??😂 The hypocrisy is much‼ Meanwhile, a hair product or hairstyle is for everyone whether it's Dove or this brand. At least, my people don't wear other races hair while claiming cultural apropriation and the "blueprint" of races (def racist). Oh well. Racists and envious people will reap that which they sow.

They either need to market the product differently or change the formula. According to my above pasted info….it’s formulated for everyone, so we need to have some sympathy for women who bought this product and experienced hair loss. Because unless these white women are actually not human, it’s supposed to be for them as well.

Thank you queen.
@@seliahh9451 I would individually do this if your sensitive.
But essential oils add them slowly just because you can control the amount.

Your race is irrelevant. What is relevant to this discussion is your hair type. Women with afro-textured hair naturally have diverse hair types from bone straight and course to tiny coils and fine and everything in between. Women with euro hair textures have hair that is completely different.
You can rant all about how this oil is the only thing that works for you, but what you are failing at understanding is, it's not the oil that is helping you, it is the ROSEMARY ESSENTIAL OIL ITSELF that is DROPPED IN THE HEAVY NUT OILS THE MIELLE OIL IS MADE FROM that is helping you. You can get the same benefits if you take a sprig of rosemary oil and put it in a water spray bottle and spray your hair with it. In fact, you would have even more benefit because you don't have to wash rosemary essential oil water out of your hair.
This oil is a heavy nut butter oil which causes people with euro hair textures to have to wash it out when it's designed to be applied to the hair daily and worn until wash day. Wash day for black women's hair is on average anywhere from one week to 3 weeks because our hair doesn't produce any oils at all. That is the difference. You can literally go to your grocery store and buy rosemary essential oil and put it in your shampoo, your conditioner, or in a water bottle. But for some reason (we know why) you buy a hair oil, use it improperly just to get the effects of the essential oil.
The only way people with afro texture hair can get the benefit of Rosemary Oil is when it's suspended in heavy nut oils because we need a carrier oil to make it penetrate our hair shaft and scalp.
Our hair and our scalps are not the same even though you think that's what equality means.

And her hair isn't like other white women's, she has a fucking medical condition.
You're making assumptions based on her race despite the fact that she straight up said she has a very specific condition that affects her hair type and growth.
"Black hair" isn't the only hair that can benefit from this shit.
And most "white" products don't really go for hair health anyways.
If you look into "non-black" cultures, they all have their own hair care "secrets" full of shit they had access to and work in their hair.
And NONE of it is this wash daily with harsh cleaners bullshit.
Yeah the shit works for her, get tf over it.
No she can't just use the shit everyone else is using, frankly they probably shouldn't be using it either.
It's just black women seem to get the most struggles when it comes to everything and as a result or forced to figure shit out the most.
They know how to maintain their hair because it's so different from everyone else's.
And while people using black products because they are trendy and NOT because they need them is fucked and a result of societal attitudes towards everything black.
This is one example of it working.
Quit assuming shit about people's hair based on their race, gatekeeping haircare ain't gonna help shit.
Next you're gonna start bitching about white chemo patients wearing wigs because "non-black hair grows faster" or some shit.
If it works, it works.
The problem are the people who are buying shit that DON'T work for them and ruining for the people it does work for, something that correlates to race but is not necessarily tied down to it.
If you think diying is such an easy great thing to do, then why don't you just make this shit yourself? Not all black women, just you.

I don’t think the product is “catered” to a specific color of skin. Please stop with the racism. We all bleed red and we’re made in the image of the same creator who loves ALL of His creation.
I may be late, but it's not the skin that's different. It's the hair texture that is. Of course, there are races other than black with textured hair, but they're buying out products that typically cater to textured hair as people with pin straight, non textured hair, complaining their hair is oily, and then pressuring the brand to change the formulation of the product. The result of that is people with textured hair having one less hair care option that caters to their hair type. And there's already not many brands that work for textured hair. Meanwhile, people with straight hair have millions of brands that are formulated for their hair type, and those with textured hair do not. This has happened many times with other brands.
Those with straight hair start using textured hair products, and their hair falls out, gets weighed down, or is too oily, and then leave bad reviews, pressures the company to change their formulation, and then those with textured hair loses yet again another brand that caters to their hair. And trust me, there are not many.
The bottom line is that textured hair and non textured hair require different routines to thrive. There aren't many brands that make products that are good for textured hair.

This happened with black girl sunscreen too, instead of using what they have always been able to use, they sell out black girl sunscreen, it’s crazy.
im not tryna be rude at all, but what exactly is Black girl sunscreen? am i just being stupid
@@IDontKnow-pf6en I'm assuming it's a brand. If not, I'm assuming its a sunscreen for melaninated skin, since melaninated skin isn't the same as unmelaninated skin.
@@IDontKnow-pf6en it’s a sunscreen made specifically for people with darker skin tones. A lot of regular sunscreen leaves a white tint on skin that’s darker than medium brown, so that company made a sunscreen specifically for black and dark skinned POC that worked as a moisturizer and didn’t look white on the skin.
Sunscreen that protects dark and darker skinned individuals and does not leave the white residue or film.
I don't think I've ever met a black person that actually uses sunscreen

Frankly most white hair products and hair care practices suck ass because we've not only decidedly to erase other people's cultures, but our own as well.
Which includes hair care.
We really do not need to be washing our hair daily with harsh shampoos.
We really do need to apply some oils to our ends.
And we REALLY need to quit fetishizing other cultures in lieu of researching our own hair care.
From our own protective stylings to our bathing routines, we have just shifted to whatever makes capitalism the most money which is fucking up our hair and buying everything to fix it while constantly using it.
It's just that Whiteness is a social concept and thus not all of us are the same, so some of us could find som utility in using these products.
And if we base it on that, then you have a much better result.
White hair care does need improvement, we do need to stop just listening to advertisements/trends rather than doing actual research, and we need to then shop based our needs rather than gatekeeping products based on race.

@@haruharumada but you are speaking out of fear. So far there is no proof that the company that bought the mielle brand plans to change the formula. For all we know, they might have started the marketing trend on tik tok to help their sales of the company they just bought. P.G. is a large corporation and can churn out the products with no fear of shortages. Empty shelves can be refilled. If they are getting great sales on the product as is, why would they change it? Also we live in a society with others. Do you ever wonder what the effect of black women discovering henna, amla, and other Ayurveda herbs might have meant for middle eastern and Indian women? Did it create a shortage for them because the US market was more profitable for the growers? We can not get this hostile and fearful when a product is found by another demographic. It's ugly and it just reveals the amount of insecurity black girls have about themselves for no reason. There is no need. Mielle is made of rosemary and oils. It is not unique. Come off the edge. You will have rosemary oil and other helpful products for your hair. If you want to give it up, there will be another line to move to. What we have seen is an endless array of product lines catering to natural hair . Many we have abandoned for the next new thing, whether they worked for us or not. There is not a drought of products not even for 4c girls. There isn't, so just have some confidence about yourself.
You sound silly.
if you think this is racism, you're racist asf and completely ignored everything she said to victimize yourself. allow me to paraphrase what she said so you can understand better: black people have special hair that needs special care, and there arent many products out there for that. with this one product that works very well for them becoming popular with white people, the company is bound to change the formula to work for their new buyers and not the original black buyers. us white people have all the products in the world to treat our hair, and yet we choose to colonize black hair products that were never meant for our typical hair types. hope this helps!
How is this not racism 😒😒😒

@@Anne_one … you fr? Instead of changing the formula they could have introduced a new product for finer hair and kept both types of customers. It’s a hair product. You’re really gatekeeping hair products? This product did work for many people from different backgrounds. They made the choice to change the formula. That’s not on the consumer. Just stop
Yes, they are selfish and yes, it is the company's fault as well. Both can be true at the same time. They're selfish in the sense that they're taling up the product that's for someone else who don't have many or any options when you have hundreds to chose from. It's the same way how a non vegetarian would be selfish for eating all of the veggie options at an event. You can do what you want, but some things are selfish because you're only thinking of yourself and not other...hence being selfish
So I guess you’re gonna remain oblivious to the fact that in AMERICA black people have had limited products catered to their hair for a LONG TIME? And you want to act oblivious to that. It is selfish to purchase products that are in limited quantity towards a specific racial group with very different hair
Just because they cater to your hair, doesn't mean others who are not black can't use it. Products are out there for everyone to try and enjoy.

This is why I love Camille Rose. Several years, and the products I use have not changed.
🤫 before they start on this brand too🤣
That honey hydrate is the truth
#FACTS 👍🏾
Love me some Camille 🌹
@@naturalwoman3552 exactly 😭. That’s when mayhem will happen. Best believe i will stock up 😭😭😭
Who cares what race use's it..its hair growth...im a black man btw
This product is for all hair types. Why spread the jealousy and hate Brittneee
If its for all hair type why is it making they hair fall out?? 😂 stay on your lane pls
@giginsengx I took her advice actually and looked at the reviews... didn't see those just saw some happy customers of all ethnicities... Americans are just getting more divided than ever and we look like a joke to the rest of the world. Facts... look into that.
@@breebubssssssssyou do know rosemary oil is used everywhere right? And it can very well be used in any hair. Wtf do you mean "catered to black people?" I though it was for hair not skin.
She’s not being bitter she’s right white people can’t use this product because is only for are hair type
How is she spreading "jealousy"? What? lol
Rosemary oil caters to anyones hair race or creed. it’s a natural dht blocker
@@brownsugrr I said what I said. Stop being bothered by the the semantics. I said what I said why are you butt hurt. I could care less about this product. I make my own. Who cares if it’s now a products that cater to all hair types not just 4 c hair, Or other ethnic groups. Stop being so uptight. Not all black folk have 4 c hair. I’ll say it again rosemary oil is for anyone hair race or creed, Mint too. All herbs find which one you like and works for your hair type not a race type.
It’s been used for a long time for fallout, dandruff etc..
Yes that is true But we are talking about the brand and the formulation
Yes but they aren't talking about rosemary oil in general. They are talking about the specific product from Mielle
@@blueiepureesteluca did they say their product is only for black women ??
Some people don’t know how to read the instructions either. YOU NEED TO WASH IT OFF AFTER 30 MINUTES. Only people with very coily or textured hair can leave it on, because their hair can easily absorb the oil. That oil is extremely strong and can cause your hair to fall off if you leave it on overnight or for wayyy too long. If you want something that you can leave on your hair, then get an actual rosemary plant and boil it in some water, let it sit till it’s cooled down, and apply it to your hair with a spray bottle.
hair texture isn’t the same as hair porosity, hair porosity is how easily the hair absorbs products due to the cuticles being either open, high porosity, or closed, low porosity. The higher the porosity the easier and the more heavy oils you can use on your hair, the lower the more lightweight oils you need to use. Someone with low porosity curly hair can absorb oils harder than someone with high porosity straight hair. Therefore; an oil for a certain hair texture doesn’t mean it’s a one size fits all. It’s just about porosity and what works for you.
Ok that’s why it’s worse on me 😢
I was going to buy this product so thank you for informing me that this product is very good for people who have straight hair
It's just rosemary oil. Rosemary oil is a well known oil for hair strengthening and growth, among other things. Anyone can use it. Thin hair or hair loss can happen to anyone. Yes, I see that the bottle packaging looks to be marketed towards women with wavy/textured hair, but it doesn't mean it's exclusively for women with that certain type of textured hair. It's just rosemary oil, made from the rosemary plant, a herb and anyone can use.
Thanks i didn't want to say anything 😑
Worse part we black girls be doing white people hair (silk press,ext )its crazy
We equal if a white girl have the shmoney to buy the product then so be it 🤕
This is racist in a way ... so white people can buy this and not that
Im just saying my peace
That’s why your hair is falling out. Rosemary oil isn’t the only oil in there 😅😅😅
@@biancasowesscoast6465 my hair has been thinning out since before I found rosemary oil. It's called Thyroid Cancer. 😐
Thank you. Im middle eastern but I have very thin hair and it always falls out and i use this to help it grow back and its been growing it. Rosemary oil is for everybody sometimes it works for people sometimes it doesnt. Its not just for one race.
The fact that they have more hair products than us and they don't complain but they complain about ours and its not even made for them.
That's part. Obsessed is the word.
This. ALL OF THIS! 🎯🎯🗣🗣
@@miram2053 they're obsessed with black women period. It's so creepy
💯
“it’s not made for them” I literally use this and am half white and it does wonders for my hair. Races don’t own hair products, anybody can buy what they want.
Tell me you are a racist without saying you are a racist…
Thank you for this. Didn't even know this was happening. So ridiculous! Everytime Black people get anything. Here come the others tryna take advantage.
Bottle said for all hair types her analysis is racist
Tell me you’re racist without saying your racist.
We know damn well if a white person said “use your own hair care” to a black person all hell would break loose.
This goes both ways. Don’t expect equality and then exclude a specific race just because it fits your narrative. We come in all different shapes, sizes and colors. Not one hair routine is the same as the next. Support black owned products, yes, but don’t be spreading hate. If a brand changes it’s formula to cater to a specific race, then was it really interested in helping or was it only interested in the money?? Think about it. Remember where you put your money matters.
If you compare everything you say and do to black people that’s another way of expressing your racism…
You do not have the same circumstances as blacks people but desperately wanna act as if you do so you can compare. Yourself to them…
That’s the actual racism hun
Lose your hair them
This!! It even says made for all hair types. It is amazing for growth in most people's hair
🙄
it’s not selfish. it’s their own money and they have the right to buy whatever they want. we can’t tell people not to buy anything that isn’t catered towards them just because it’s becoming less available for you. that makes you the selfish one.
Truth. It’s always a black and white thing. It’s like get over yourself. I know what she means that not every person can benefit from this- but still. She is race baiting.
exactly.
Black hair products are for BLACK HAIR! If you can't use it find another brand, it was working for us, why do they have to change it to work for y'all self MF's that got a whole aisle in Target, Walmart and Walgreens of your hair products!
Thank youuu
Imagine turning to racism because you’re not getting what you want. Tf
They're buying a popular product to give it bad reviews for clout. Absolutely selfish.
Rosemary oil is good for hair growth thats why people are using it
yeah it is the only one at target
So the company is supposed to be a label on their products, for black women only.?
@@imawakemymindisalive13 you can make your own that's way better than mielle
Stfu go to the cooking isle and buy your rosemary oil. Or make it
@BuffyNoir140 No but why they always have them in the "ethnic" hair isle literally says it in some stores. Or black hair isle in some stores.
As a Puerto Rican girl, I love this product. I am happy the company is selling out 🙌🏻 Btw I did videos on it really does work 😂
She literally called people selfish for using an oil which doesn’t specify on the bottle “for black hair”
Chill out woman, it’s not a darker shade foundation, it’s literally oil for scalp (and you’re not the only kind of people who have a scalp)
That’s not the problem. The problem is that when it doesn’t work for them, they post negative reviews until it gets changed so that it will, which comes at the expense of people who didn’t have any other option but are now confronted with a formula that has changed to benefit people who already have isles and isles full of products that work for them but got pissed off over the one thing that doesn’t and called it a bad product instead of just acknowledging that it wasn’t made for their hair type. It’s really not that hard to understand.
Girl until your in the situation which you will never be, shut up and sit this one out. You yourself don’t have issues finding hair products for your hair type. Stay the hell out of our business.
I'm white and I've oiled my scalp with oils like this since I was around 10 and could do my own hair....if you think white people can't use those products because they're for "black people" and "black hair types" you're literally saying "you're white you can't use it"....but if someone straight up came out and said that all of those hair products were for white people and black people can't use them because they're black it would be literal war like I don't understand why ppl throw a fit like this then just don't understand why they receive sm backlash and hate for it....I get what you mean by the products being sold out and bad reviews constantly posted but that's not your choice to make lmao....u can't really do anything abt those white girls posting bad reviews on Mielle and pronouncing it wrong. If you don't like it, don't use it, simple as that. Posting this type shit on the INTERNET to rant abt it is so mf immature and flat out makes u look like a child 💀 grow up babe.
most of the products are for white hair only. Most makeup brands are for lighter skins only. They are not inclusive. But the moment us black people/ kinky curly textured folk get products that work for our hair, the non-curly/kinky haired people take it for themselves. She said blacks because most if not all black people have curly 4 type hair. SO how about you learn on a topic before spewing fricking nonsense?
Damn you felt personally called out huh. If the roles were reversed same thing. we all have a right to SPEAK UP. sorry honey white or black
@@ArizonaRedsits a goddamm hair oil..grow up
What are you even on about? You grow up. If you have nothing important to say don't say anything at all?@@skincare.34
exactly! i cant beleive the pettiness
“For all hair types and textures “ stated directly on the bottle LOL
Idk who’s giving u false information cuz the Mielle products literally say “4c hair only” ON THE BOTTOM OF THE PRODUCT ☠️
These comments suck. Too much hate over some damn hair products. Guess what, I can never find anything for my hair type, ever. What do I do? Go online and find it, and buy it. It exists somewhere. Stop the victimization, it gets annoying. And stop trying to push opposing views just because it pisses you off. Debate is one thing, hate is another. Anyway, God bless y’all
A moment of silence for the people who keep using hair products that weren’t made for their hair
Let's tell em to keep that same energy since they want their hair to fall out
Moment of silence for people who keep eating Italian food and buying Gucci who aren’t Italian
Idk how to find stuff for my hair😭
@@hellokittydimaggio A moment of silence for the bitches who don't know the difference between biology and food/fashion. You cannot compare the two.
😆😆😆😆💯💯
i’m mixed and i totally disagree with this. just because they’re hair is as thick as ours means they can’t use the product? THIS OIL has been viral, idc what color i am, IM GOING TO GET IT. The bottle also doesn’t say, “ONLY FOR THICK -COURSE HAIR, CAUTION FOR STRAIGHT HAIR”
Non American here, we all use rosemary oil on our hair, it's the best for helping growth, its not a racist product, its for everyone with thinning hair or growth problems.
It's OK, the rest of the world knows this is just an 'African American' problem. Some Americans are just insane, narcissistic and obsessed with race.
Of course rosemary oil is used all over the world, Americans just think they're special.
What are you talking about? Please explain what you not being American has to do with literally anything she mentioned in the video? Nobody said it was a ‘racist’ product, we are simply saying how hair products catered to our unique & specific hair textures are constantly being changed and bought out by women with naturally straight hair which MOST if not ALL products are already catered to. Stop making up false scenarios to suit your ‘anti-woke’ agenda. Either stay on topic or don’t speak at all.
@aliaa ‘ ♡ your response is exactly why I mentioned being non American. I'm a poc that uses the product mentioned but not black American. Your response is rude, ignorant, aggressive and gate keeping , get a passport and travel a bit 😉 or do your man a favour and get him one 😆
@@jrsmrs1 Again, i’m not seeing what you being a poc has to do with anything? like was that supposed to change what I said? your reply sounded condescending so I just returned the same energy is all.. but either way it really seems like you don’t know what you’re talking about so let’s end the convo here.
@@Alianahamson please calm down, the commenter seems like they weren’t trying to offend you. But gatekeeping a product just because of someones race is racist and also assuming every non-black person has straight hair. This commenter could’ve brought up America because wokeness is mostly only present there, which is partially causing this unneeded gatekeeping of a rosemary hair oil.
I’m a white girl with extremely curly hair… I just started using this and it really helps my curls not be frizzy I recommend it to people with CURLY hair NOT straight! So I totally agree!
Idk why people get mad at companies for selling their products to people. From a business standpoint, it makes sense to sell to as much people as possible, regardless of race. That’s why I’ve seen women of all races (not just white or black) use these products.
This literally wasn't the point 🤦🏾♀️
@@brianalacount293 well the bottle says for all hair types so what is the point? How are these women buying the product in the wrong when the backside says it is for all hair types??? If anything this RUclipsr here ignoring that one easy detail then going on a tirade about how non black people cant buy black ppl products points to her urgency tj bash non black ppl every chance she gets smh.
They can and we can choose not to buy it anymore
When are we going to stop gatekeeping everything and just let people (and businesses) do what they want? With this kind of logic, ALL of these products catering to Black women are going to run out of business after receiving profits from like 10% of the market instead of the entire market itself.
And it’s a huge stretch to play a couple clips of white women trying this product out and then claim that there’s no MO in stores because white people are taking them all.
Sometimes people forget that Black people ARE and minority in America, and that means that reaching to the other races market is as great business move
This is not something to be upset over...seriously. It's a waist of your energy. I'm sorry, but I think this is so silly. Any product can be purchased by anyone. If you had a product company, you would want EVERYONE to buy it. Most of these products are not even good for you. Buy 100% pure oils like sweet almond oil, argon oil, rosehip seed oil, and many more, and make your own mixture, if it bothers you so much. You are concerned with having it, so you can review it on your channel. I think you are being selfish right now...honestly.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I'm just imagining a product label saying, "If you non-black, don't buy!". Hilarious.
But they do have this whenever you go to a store and you and search for product for your hair. It is separated they don’t have to say if you’re not black, don’t buy it it’s literally separated and you can know when you walk in the aisles that this is for Black people and this is for Caucasian people they don’t have to say it, because the aisles clearly states that which is for whom..
@@frankiemckane6314 girl they want to be blind and act like they don’t see it. They have a whole 2 aisle of whites only products where we will get half a shelf for coloreds
@@lethalbeauties6182 FACTS😄,
the crazy thing is all those other products are made for yt folks hair but litterally you put it on textured hair and the hair falls out and for decades what black folks were doing were just accepting it and making their own and not complaining . sociial media has ruined us.
@@frankiemckane6314 there’s a separate section in the grocery store for Mexican foods, am I not allowed to buy those because I’m not Mexican? Same for Chinese foods. The product literally says on the bottle for all hair types and textures.
Rosemary oil is good for hair growth. So ppl can use it on their scalp.. but use it as a treatment a few hours before washing if it weighs the hair down too much. Walgreens and Ulta also carry this brand! And Amazon. Hope you find it!
The product not being on the shelf is the stores fault, not the consumer's fault. The store only buys enough product to keep up with what is actually sold, so if there is an increase in purchases of the product and the store runs out, the store does not order it until the next shipment date. They don't just keep the product coming in to the store if they're not selling.
Please stop gatekeeping hair products and hairstyles! You ask non black individuals to support black owned businesses and products and then criticize us when we do so, at this point we just can’t win! You are silently advocating for segregation when you tell white women they cannot use black owned products. If they want to use products that are not meant for their hair let them! They are still hopefully contributing to purchasing a black owned product from a black owned business. Furthermore not all white people have the same texture of hair, not all of us are 100% white what about those of us who are mixed? Not a fan of this kind of content, sorry not sorry!
Like how are they selfish for wanting to try a trendy hair oil 🙄
