  • ive used the profective mega growth and i find that it does actually grow your hair !

  • i was going to buy the ion spray too. thank you!!

  • the design line heat protectent is very good but i would also recommend you stay away form olive oil hair mosturizing lotion.. makes the hair heavy and greasy but every other product from then I believe to be amazing.

  • Thank You So Much For The Help

  • I DID NOT USE ALL OF THESE PRODUCTS AT THE SAME TIME. As I've said about 10 times already, these products that I have accumulated over about 6 or 7 years. Oh my gosh... why don't you all get that??!!?!??! And for the record, I have hair that is about 1 1/2 inches past my shoulder at resting. This video will be taken down soon. Thanks for all of the kind comments and may God help the ones who can't read.. 

  • @ShortieByNature0711 read my previous comments if u cud x :)....... i wanna see all my black girls with long beautiful hair

  • water based moistures are the best to use for black hair its gives it the elasticity and provides a big amount of protein that the hair requires, what you should do is avoid products that have cheap fillers like petrolatum, lanolin, or mineral oils they are not moisturising they just lock out the essential moisture your hairs needs. i think you really need to do ur research if your going to make videos about hair.. another problems is that you used 2 many products. just tryna help :) God bless!

  • @sweetie223 I thought water dries out the african american hair. Someone told me that. Plus I hear it all the time

  • @TheChrystiella nnooo it really does not it all depends on what products you are using and how much of it...or if you wash your hair 2 little or 2 much. who ever you are getting your information from is misinformed. water or aqua is an essential part of hair growth. i have been doing my research. if you really want to know what your hair needs and doesnt do your research. a very good book is “The Science of Black Hair”.....again i advice you to do your reseach. x :)

  • @TheChrystiella

    How exactly can water dry anything out? It is pretty much the epitome of moisture. When i started my healthy hair journey I was afraid of washing it too often as well, but then I realized how much my hair loves water. I spray water into it every day to keep it moist and wash it twice a week. Hair especially African American hair (it is the driest texture of hair) loves water and moisture. Don't use oil based moisturizers only water based!!! My hair feels so wonderful now!

  • @TheChrystiella

    Also, use pure oils on your hair(olive,coconut,jojoba) after you use a water based moisturizer to seal the moisture into the strands. If you are using an oil based moisturizer to help straighten your hair, think about it, you heat oil up to cook things, you are cooking your hair. Also don't detangle your hair unless it is wet. The best time is before you rinse out your conditioner. Also washing your hair in sections will keep it from tangling in the shower♥

  • Your problem is not the products but the different type of products that you are combining in your hair. Stick to one line that work and u will see better results.

  • I say, "stick to a chosen few, tried and true products". You do not have to use a bunch of different products for healthy hair. This is coming from a black woman with bra strap length hair. Once I stopped going to the salons who insisted on chopping on 3 inches per visit and using crap products my hair flourished.

  • I bought that growth lotion and it was so crap. never again.

  • What she saying is that they obviously didn't work for HER! Everybody hair is different and what works for one may not work for another..

  • wow I cant believe so many pple disliked this video smh -__- the organics products have always been the best for me but they just didnt work for her. it may just be because my texture is different Im not gonna get upset with her for sayin she doesn't like them, everyones hair is diff figure out what works for u :)

  • i had the same proclaim polishing  bottle and i loved it

    i was actually sad when it ran out

  • Not everything is gonna work for everybody. Just like everybody is different. So is there hair. And it's not what you like and want. But what your hair likes and wants. You have to play "guinea pig" and try out alot of products untill you find something that works with your hair. Also, just cause it may cost more, doesn't mean it works any better. Hope this helps. =)

  • it seems like you don't like olive oil ! hahaha

  • i have the ion and didnt like it . leave a white stuff after you flat iron it........

  • I thought your video was great you did a good job of explaining why they did not work for your you. Which I have brought all the same products and more. I have purchased products you can only get online,Health food stores, Salons. You name it I tried it. I had relaxed damaged hair chopped it off. started fresh. It's sad that most black hair products lye and are bad for your hair.I have tried Ojon the entire line is GREAT right down to the leave in oil

  • I wouldn't use any of them either.

  • If you have relaxed hair maybe it's the hair products that are trying to work on your hair, but the chemicals are blocking the products from doing their job.

  • Comment removed

  • @Fantasie666 you'll have to do a little searching for your products. for one, dont straighten your hair everyday. i did that and had tremendous breakage and dryness. limit the heat to once a week and find moisturizing products. not all are the same and will work for your hair.

  • what did you do with the stuff that you don't like? i am stuck with mine i wish there was a way to donate them.

  • i use profectiv mega growth for moisturizing for my hair it works okay for me

  • @ImTotallySummer wnt no1 talkin 2u. my comment was 4 her.....THNK U!

  • Thanks for the product review! Something that I have learned while on my hair journey is that products dont grow your hair but consistency in your hair regimen (knowing what your hair needs) helps retain length... I would definitely suggest checking out hair blogs such as hairlista and KISS for some tips.. because it seems like your hair may have protein/moisture imbalance if your hair is always dull, or dry

  • Love your video. I have wasted soooo much money on some of these products and others. Honestly, I'm at a lost as to what will really work on my natural 4c hair; really dry thick hair. I can say that if you wear your hair natural, S-curl spray seems to really work well for my bad hair lol :) I use it as a moisturizer.

  • For all the people having a hard time finding the right hair products for your hair, I would recommend buying from either Sally's Beauty Supply or from Walgreens since both stores offer a no question money back guarantee. I do not work for nor am I getting anything for saying such but I shop at both places and the employees do tell me at least half of the time I am in the stores. I've wasted enough of my own money searching for what works for me, too. :O

  • thank you for giving your insight on the products! :]

  • dis video is stupid. every1 have different types of hair so y put sum up dat dnt wrk 4 YOU. I use Profectvi Mega Growth & it wrks for me.

  • @Resha921 maybe you should read the title again.

    "products I"LL never buy again" a video of product SHE personally wont buy again.

    her hair is different then yours. like you said, "every1 have differnt types of hair.

  • I like profectiv mega growth because it saved my hair when I had moisture overload because it's a protein moisturizer; it isn't water based, though.

  • On another note, I am glad that there are very few products my hair hates. Actually, the only thing my hair hates is cantu shea butter leave-in.

  • If you don't mine me asking what are you going to do with all of these products

  • Oh and the products you say are too heavy, you should try using them sparingly. I only suggest that cause as a fellow PJ I hate wasting money.

  • I will say that i am a product junkie as well and sometimes we are so amped to try everything that we don't use the products right. I will also say that some of these products aren't good for hair in general. It's a good video for documenting your journey. Years down the line you can refer back. Now I do think you are using water based moisturizers wrong (based on your comment). You should try to use one on wet hair only. I think it will work out better.

  • I love the Profectiv products!!! :)

  • i big chopped twice, first time I put stuff in my hair all the time. Second time around around I don't put anything in my hair. I just wash and go.

  • Good video. Most of these products have mineral oil and petroleum in them. My hair grows faster (about 1-1.5 inches every two months) in braids barely being washed, conditioned, or moisterized, than using there products everyday. They clog up the pores and stunt your growth (making it seem like your hair only grows about 3 inches per year). I used a huge amount of fantasia and my hair to be very dry in less than an hour.

  • wow that's a lot of products, so what products do you use now that work well for you?

  • I have straight NAPPY hair. lol i cannot stretch no more than a month. I HAVE to have a relaxer. but i have spent alot of money on products and it did nothing for my hair. so i just don't do anything to my hair until it's time to go to the beauty salon. plus, i use good ole fashion hair grease and my hair still has movement b/c i don't glop it on. my hair use to be like SUPER short but after i quit puttin a million AND one things in it, it started growing on its own. oh well lol

  • When did you get a chance to use any of these products?...LOL...Ughhhh What are you using right now? Why don't you try to stick to 3 products sweetie. I think you use these products once and now you're saying you don't like any of them, what type of hair do you have? You are cracking me up.LMAO

  • im shocked at palmer's cause they have good lotion. now motion's, i dont like any of their products.

  • I say just buy professional product only. The price is high but worth it. You don't have 2 waste money buying stuff like this. And they have good return policies if u buy from the right places.

  • Girl you can go ahead and send me that proclaim gloss and profectiv lotion. That's my ish lol. Why did you buy the whole aisle of products? You should probably use natural products if you are having such a hard time looking for what you want.

  • thanks for your review; i have never tried those products but water based products perhaps work better on natural hair

  • all of those seem to be oil based products maybe you should stick with water based only

  • I hate every product you showed! Lol and the crazy part is how much they charge for the products so its like I was paying to have dry brittle yet greasy hair! Never again! But you should try Nexxus Promend shampoo and conditioner its AMAZING! Its all I use now. Great stuff. :-D

  • Ok dear, no upset feelings here ok, but all im saying some of those are so really good products, yea i had an interest that's why i watch it, because i want to see the products and know why or to see if you use any i use before that i decide not to buy myself, i will know im not the only one who had the same problem. But its ok everyone hair is different.

  • @kimopple everything you said contradicts everything you said in your earlier post. I think you were looking for a video with all positive opinions about the products. No hurt feelings on this end either. I don't understand why it affected you so much that you said I have issues. Maybe I misread your tone. But when you start with a statement like that, I assume it's meant to be mean. And I don't understand why people would want to be mean over a hair product video. It's really not that serious.

  • @kimopple right i used the profectiv one and nothings wrong with that soo....

  • @kimopple Maybe add some extra coconut oils to the products that you can add additional oils to. especially products that is not heavy enough for your hair.

  • @kimopple the products are not the problem but more of each person's hair. for example i hate the feeling of the Motion's hairdress at 6:34 mins on my hair while my sis seems to love it.

  • @kimopple OK... It's called products I'LL never buy again. And I do say in my video that you may want to try some of them.. Everyone's hair is different like you said. I'm not trying to discourage anyone. I didn't like those products. I let y'all know what type of hair I have to maybe save you some money. Why did you even watch my video? Didn't the title not explain what it was going to be about. You must have had some interest in it.

  • @kimopple Just because these products are good to you, doesn't mean they are good for someone else. You don't know how another person's head of hair will react to these products. I'm sure there are products that you don't like that someone else may say are terrible.

  • @kimopple.......I think what shortiebynature does here is quite useful...if we all talk about what did not work for us, we will find some common ones that one should not bother with..... if you really dont like it, pls do your own video or pass this one...simple...

  • yea i wasted too much money on design line. I dont think its for black people either. I dont care what no one says. I kept using it, & every time it made my hair dry & it broke off. but I didnt know how to care for my hair that much & finally just stop using it. She showed some other items I stopped using & I havent even tried the other things. & dont plan to.

  • @shellisa04 Yeah Design line is over priced and have really lame products in all of their products.

  • christ how do you even use that much?

  • @Pouchy17 let's not bring Christ into this. It's not that serious. It's just hair products.

  • i have the same fine thin hair when its relaxed just like you but ive used profective and its worked. i just dont apply a lot to my scalp, just a small thin layer every other day. maybe you should try sticking to one product cause often times they do the same things as all of those products combined. but do what works for you best :)

  • Most of these products lie its just to make a profit. Black hair needs moisture to grow. All of these products suck.

  • i really love the proclaim oil... it leaves my hair really nice :)

  • I used to buy the hair mayonaise it actually did stop the breakage in my hair and i LOVED how it made my hair feel but I didn't really care for the smell thats why i stoped using it, but it was one of the better products for my hair particularly but my hair is thick and curly so It probably depends on ur texture

  • My sis my niece an i all use the profective line and it works for us. the ic carrot infused hair polish works wonders on dry hair without weighing it down and it smells great. i have used the ic leave in moisturizer in my braids and sew in weaves for years and it has kept my hair moisturized. it all depends on your hair type, your regimen as well as your environment. but i cant knock all black hair products. you just have to try them and see what works best for you.

  • Those products look full. How can you use something for a day or two and expect to see dramatic results??? You have to use them for a longer period of time and everything seems to be too damn heavy for your hair!! What's not heavy is too light for your hair... Shave it off then!

  • @ConceitedDiamond9999 I give everything a good try. I'd say most of them were used for a least a month. Some were used for years because I wanted so badly for them to work. Heck..I wanted to get my money's worth. And I don't know what u want from me.. If I had used them heavily, way more would be missing from those bottles. Sorry that my video affected u so profoundly. Or maybe it didn't. That's just the tone I'm getting from all of those exclamation marks.. lol

  • These videos are all confusing me. Some people use products and say it works and in someone else's video it says not to :( Leaves me confused and I end up with a bunch of different products in my bathroom. But like others said I guess it just depends on your hair and it's trial and error. Right now I'm using a product that many people say NO! to but I'll use it for a month or so and see.

  • @Elephunktabulous Yep. Trial and error. But learn from me and try sample sizes. Or do your research first. And I recommend not shopping for hair products in walmart.

  • @ShortieByNature0711 I agree don't go to Wal-Mart

  • @ShortieByNature0711 I get hair products from walmart like tresseme heat tamer spray and garnier fructis leave in comditioneryou can get them at any drugstore and they work for me

  • @Elephunktabulous that cuz allhair is diferent, like the peole that have them...so waht is good for my hair, may not be good for you......

  • the palmers olive oil stuff is GREAT for me, it makes it sooo smooth and clean

  • i just wanted to add that idk about the profectiv growth lotion but i do use the growth shampoo and the deep cond leave in and i must say it has aided in my hair growth along with my other products i use...im natural now and dont use the profectiv as much but from what i have used...it has helped me!...

  • @naturalchik I'm glad you were able to find hair products that worked for u! I have now. Just took me a while to find them. =)

  • Thank goodness I have not spent any money on any of these.

  • @vanaphil Hey..They may work for u. But I believe some of those like the roux is just colored water in a bottle. Don't buy it!! lol

  • the carrot infused hair polish by IC is the bomb

  • @MsIslandsweet I've never heard of that one. Sounds pretty cool. I love the one for damaged and relaxed hair though.

  • @MsIslandsweet rightt i love that suff

  • All them products a wast of money..n the don't work...smh..nice video

  • @ladydede88 lol that's the truth! Thanks.

  • Anyone notices that most of the hair products made for black hair doesn't really work? 

  • @KiKiForeverBBZ - Amen to that KiKiForeverBBZ. These products just lighten our wallets. I just ditched all those products 6 months ago and headed to the Indian stores.

  • @sealie15 Speak the truth!! I hate these black products. Very few of them work.

  • Stay FAR away from anything Motions. That stuff is like that Pink lotion, if not worse, lol

  • @MoreForMo24 I agree!

  • I agree with the majority, all these products look good but they're not good. However, a few things on the beauty supply shelves do work, forreal :~) Also, its all about how you take care of it; it starts with you first. Drink plenty of water, eat healthy foods and exercise. A lot of people dont realize being healthy helps the hair, too, stay healthy and grow.

  • u should give me the 3rd product i love it soooo much i use it every time i get out of the shower

  • @beefnoodle01 I've thrown everything away. But what's the third product?

  • @ShortieByNature0711 haha i was just kidding its the olive polish thing i guess it depends on ur hair type great video tho

  • if it's not water based, it's not a moisturizer.

  • @truelycold Hawaiian Silky 14 in 1 works super well.

  • This is a good video. Most of the hair products out there (especially relaxers) are bad for the hair. DO NOT use any shampoo with sodium laureth sulfate, especially if your hair is relaxed because your hair will go down the drain. Before I started using natural shampoos, my hair was shedding so much. There are many recipes for natural hair products online. I make a lit of mine. And remember that sonenod the best products that you can use in your hair are found in your kitchen. Olive and sesame

  • @Preciousandpure absolutely natural things can work. We should try natural juices and berries on hair and see what happens (hey, Madam C.J. Walker did and Eddie Murphy did too on Coming to America LMBO)

  • @PSALMSOFSONGS hahaha!

  • @Preciousandpure Yep! Ever since I started using sulfate free shampoos, my hair has been softer. My scalp stopped itching. Love natural shampoos.

  • There are things in your video that I couldn't stand also, as well as things in your video that I actually like and still use. You're right...it all depends on how the products and your hair get along.

  • @Shannon920 exactly!!!

  • It doesn't matter what hair type you have, there is no reason anyone needs that many products. I mean damn. That's probably why it didn't work cause you put too much crap in your hair.

  • @luv2singkv please read the rest of the comments. thanks. but I agree.. most of those products were crap.

  • @luv2singkv wow, you're just brilliant, because you rightly assume that she puts that many products in her hair at the same time :) congratulations!

  • @yaayaa95 That's what I was just thinking hahaha and even if she did put them all at the same time why is she so damn angry haha

  • @luv2singkv

    LMAOO

  • @luv2singkv that's right

  • @luv2singkv im sure she wasn't using "all" of these at once, maybe she was just giving us an overview of what was in her cabinet

  • I finally use the Silk Expressions line (Olive oil shampoo/conditioner) now my hair is half way down my back..it's great. I always wrap my hair up at night, pull it up over my head and wrap it in a silk scarf/sleep on a silk pillowcase. Makes all the difference. Ur video is great:)

  • @DoUWanna007 agreed. I really think wrapping it or tying it up..or just putting a silk/satin bonnet on at night help prevent drying and split ends so you don't have to cut as much of your hair off when you trim. Thanks! =))

  • Comment removed

  • Olive Oil and Creme of Nature are really good products. Just my opinion...

  • I already see three that my hair hates...

  • @RegrowingRene101 lol which ones were they?

  • @ShortieByNature0711 Palmers Olive Oil Shampoo did the same thing to mines, the 233 and ion heat protectioner & mizani were killers too

  • Protectiv Megagrowth lotion was pretty great for my natural hair. It closes the cuticles, makes my ends curly and moisturizes great. It also works wonders before blow drying. I have 4b, fine textured hair.

  • @GooGoo32 Yeah I think it was too heavy for mine. and it's water based if I'm not mistaken. So not so good for my relaxed hair.

  • typo:Caused 

  • Re: Fantasia IC Olive Moisturizing Shine Serum, I do not agree . It does do more than the the other serums. If you turn the bottle around you will clearly see that it states that it protects hair from damage cause by heat appliances. I like it better than their other serums because it does not weigh down my hair and it moisturizes without making my hair wet.

  • @mochacreamdoll I just like the one for damaged hair more. it's been one of my staple products for YEARS! Love it.

  • Not being rude, I think Ur just using too much stuff on Ur hair. U don't allow each product to do its job.

  • @mpack86 seriously.. did you read the other comments? I understand if you didn't. There's about of them and it's pretty much repetition just like this one... but this is products I have accumulated over about 6 years. I use a shampoo, conditioner, leave in, moisturizer, and some type of protection and whatever styling product I need to complete my look. that's it.. but thanks for watch my video.

  • You can send me the products I like trying new things... Lol

  • Good video, but "true African American hair" does NOT need to be relaxed to be manageable. It's all about finding what works and commitment.

  • @babygalsix I don't believe I said that.. I was just talking about the texture of my hair. I do know that relaxed hair can be just as difficult to manage as natural hair. My mom is natural and I am relaxed and she spends less time on her hair than I do.. but thanks for watching my video.

  • @babygalsix

    PREACH!

  • Thanks for replying to my comment! Like I said before, whatever works for YOU! Everyone's hair is different...happy hair growing!

  • @ShortieByNature0711 Girl Excuse My Grammer Lol But Fuck What Everybody Gotta Say If You Wanna Do Another Video Then Go Ahead . Because 9 Times Out Of 10 We Gon Watch It Anyway ! And Give Our Feedback But I'd Really Like To Know What Products You Are Using Now Too. So Make The Video . At Least One Person Gon Have Something Bad To Say Regardless If Everybody Else Agree Or Not Thats Just Life

  • @SEXY656 Thanks for the encouragement. I think I will. =)

  • ok folks.. I've replied to many comments but it's becoming repetitive. I was cleaning out the area under my sink. I decided to show people what I would never buy again. I do not experiment that much. seriously. I try a new product about 2ce a year. I've been using things I love for well over a year and a half now. This is an accumulation of things over 5 or 6 years. And once again, this did not work for my hair because of the reasons stated in the video. No one's hair is exactly the same.

  • Hey girl, read the labels before you buy. For example, most hair pomades have mineral oil, petroleum jelly as the first ingredient, then is like using Vaseline. Any live in conditioner that is not heavy or moisturizing enough for you, you can add 1 or 2 teaspoons of olive oil, and glycerin and shake it. I always have to fix my leave in conditioners until they work for me. If is to heavy, you can not do anything about it though.

  • hmmm too much products sis, of course nothg will work lol

  • @kamela92 Never used them all at the same time. This is 6 years worth of accumulation. Thanks for watching the vid.

  • proclaim works the best my hair looked like an afro and then i put it on and know my hair has no frizz

  • @zerfe55 I like proclaim. I like IC fantasia better. They're really all the same though. lol

  • what about any ORS products jus would like your input thanks for sharing your video =)

  • @blackbutterfly233ify I've never tried ORS. Thanks for watching my video!

  • olive oil detangler is great it's the best. You shouldn't do negative comments because what works for you may NOT work for other people. You are also destorying people business. I used Olive Oil detangler and it's great it doesn't dry out the your hair. I love olive oil products, my hair is on my back and this is down to this product.

  • @MsHappyface111 she said those products work for sum but arent fpr her she said that multiple times

  • @MsHappyface111 I've said the same thing you said several times already. And I'm not going to lie and say it works for me when it doesn't. I don't think I'm hurting their sales too much. =)

  • Comment removed

  • I have to say that everyone's hair is different...but i know Mizani ROCKS! And Kera Care ROCKS! But, the other stuff...I just don't know...I used to experiment like you but not like all that...but...hopefully you will find what you are looking for...I felt like I was listening to the story of the 3 bears...nothing was right! LOL! Good luck! :)

  • @pinkladykitty I LOVE Mizani's oil sheen! OMG! I would buy it over and over again if I could find it! and their zinc shampoo. Love it too. and Kera Care is great. I didn't say it didn't rock. I just found something that's a lot cheaper and seriously works the same for me. Now why would I keep buying Kera Care if I didn't have too??! lol Thanks. I've found my products!

  • I loved protective for my hair when it was relaxed, you really don't need to use that much so if anyone is heavy handed lay off lol.

  • Those things are for white people , wow racist much .. white people can have coarse hair !!

    

  • @rosepretty1997 lol I don't know if you're serious or not but I'm pretty sure it's not racist to say a product would be better suited for non ethnic hair. But I get I was stereotyping! oops!! =)

  • Everyone tuting on hair and hair products always shows the stuff that they use but never say "this might not work for you". Thanks for your video and for keeping it real by showing what has not worked for YOU! I hope you have found something that works its trial and error for us all.

  • @inari0 Thanks so much! I've been noticing the same thing! And I'm not saying don't try them. I say exactly why they didn't work for me in the video. EX: I have fine hair so it weighed my hair down.. If you don't have fine hair, you might like it.. People aren't hearing that for some reason though. Thanks again! and I have found products I love. Don't want to post a video about it bc these comments from this one is too much! lol

  • I understand what you mean about products. I've had relaxed hair and no amount of produts will allow my hair to be better. I've gone natural now because relaxed hair is just a waste of my time and money. Allow all the products, I'll just stick to the natural products for my hair i.e oils. Plus I have that think, coarse hair that breaks combs and I use Tresemme to wash my hair not all that other crap that does nothing.

  • @bichickldn Baby shampoo works well too. Shampoo is shampoo. I think companies are putting way too much stuff in their products. I just need it to clean my hair and not dry it out at the same time. lol But I have products I use now that are working for me. I've been using them for over a year and a half. want to post a video about it but these other comments have me thinking twice...lol

  • those products arnt for every body but they fine for my hair

  • @mimi102239 agreed.

  • Wtf? Profectiv made my hair grow four inches in two weeks! Im definitely buying it again.
