I thought to myself based on the Youtube video; “finally a good product that is available locally.” The only issue was the lack of ingredient listing on the site so I requested a sample so I could try it out. After 4-6 weeks of waiting, I actually forgot about ordering the sample until I received it in the mail a week ago. The first thing I did was turn the little sample pack over and read the ingredients listed:

Deionized Water , Mineral Oil , Glycerine , Petrolatum , Cetearyl Alcohol , Dicetyl Phosphate , Ceteth-10 Phosphate , Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil Grape , Cetearyl Alcohol , Ceteareth-20 , Dimethicone , Biotin , Propylene Glycol , Diazolidinyl Urea , Methylparaben , Propylparaben , DMDM Hydantoin , Fragrance , Stearyl Alcohol , Fragrance , Panthenol , Tetrasodium EDTA

After all that waiting I can’t even use this crap in my hair! It contains everything that African American women should avoid. Like so many other products, this product is nothing more than another imitation of all the other so-called African American products on the market for our hair type. Another product to keep our hair in bondage. Based on this alone, I don’t expect anything special when it comes to their shampoo and conditioner.

Mineral Oil – A cheap oil that clogs pores and prevents absorption of moisture resulting in dry hair and stunted hair growth.

Petroleum – Please see above

Dimethicone – A silicone that causes buildup after frequent use resulting in the hair having to be clarified often.

It’s funny how they advertise how great their product is by emphasizing the containing Grapeseed oil and Biotin, but from the look of the ingredients other than these two ingredients, including the glycerine, pathenol, and water, everything else included in this formulation are chemicals. It’s really nothing good about this hair moisturizer and I do not recommend it for use.
