      You do not need to use the rosemary oil from Mielle specifically in order to grow your hair. Just buy an organic rosemary essential oil and put some drops in a organic cold pressed carrier oil like castor/almond/grapeseed and you are good to go! At least you have control on the ingredients.

    They might not have changed the ingredients but did they change the concentrations of those ingredients as well? The ingredients can be the same but the amount of each one could change the effects! Wouldn’t be surprised if P&G lowered the concentration of the good stuff and upped the concentration of cheaper ingredients to save money

    My hair started falling out a lot and I couldn’t tell why it was happening. I use the oil before I shampoo. I’m going to try not using it and see if it makes a difference. The weird part is that when I started using this years ago this same oil is what helped my hair not fall out.

      It’s not about the fact that it’s only in one product it’s their integrity as a whole. If they didn’t disclose the information about this ingredient in this shampoo whos to say they aren’t doing that with other product lines? This action highlights their integrity as a brand and what they would be ok doing with ANY product and that’s why people are boycotting the company as a whole !

    There’s another UA-camr named Mayowa’s World that speaks on this, and there are people that know the founder in the comments speaking on unscrupulous behavior and business practices (one involving school children), and instances of lack of bedside manner involving customers and their reviews online. I also remember when the products came out a lot of people were speaking on how it left a tingling feeling, and then believing that it meant the product was working, but I also feel that initial tingling they raved about could have been their scalps/skin becoming irritated from the products, and eventually causing excessive hair shedding and hair fall over time. I think people can mistake tingling for “it’s working!” When it can be the scalp telling you “I don’t like this at all” some people also said the products were strong and contained essential oils, which can be irritating unless diluted (even though they are supposedly diluted in the formula). It’s a shame so many women may have to start their hair journey over again. This reminds me of the DevaCurl situation all over again

      @aslivedbybria  3 дні тому +1

      When one of the biggest white creators posts your product on her top products list, sales shoot up. when sales go up, it piques the interest of large CPG companies like Proctor and Gamble. When CPG gets involved, the priority becomes keeping the cost down thus allowing ingredients/formulas to change. I hope this helps bring it full circle for you!

    So I can say that one of my favorite products is the rosemary mint and there was a before and after. Actually just used it a couple of days ago and thought I was tripping or maybe our water quality changed. It went from moisturizing when I first started using it to over a year ago I believe to now drying my hair out. Now it could be something else so I don’t want to make any accusations and at the same time I can no longer use this product as a stand alone moisturizer. What I noticed was that it still applies easily. However my hair started what I believe is known as “webbing” so I had to follow up with another brand of moisturizer so I could comb through. Hope it’s just a coincidence but I think I’ll play it safe cuz I definitely thought it might brake my hair off if I left it as a stand alone. Hope this helps.
