Briogeo is white washed. They do not want people to know that they are Black owned and their brand doesn't show any care for other hair than curly hair... it's just recently that they have been trying to include Black people on their IG feed.

I feel you on the products. I use whatever works for my hair- regardless of who it is marketed towards. I’ve found that my hair thrives with Paul Mitchell products and lighter products in general. The way a stylist broke it down to me once- Products for straighter hair are designed to work quickly and efficiently without being too drying as they are designed to be used more frequently. What that means for curlier textures is that the shampoos clean well without drying our strands and the conditioner works super quickly and effectively but tends to wear off more quickly as well. For the last few years, I’ve stopped taking my hair too seriously and have been trying any and everything that suits my fancy. Color, cuts, Brazilian blowouts, micro links, and whatever else I can find!

Girl, that thing is the best blowout for black hair. Granted, it still gives you frizz, but it gets it as straight as a blow dryer can _and fast._ All a blow dry product needs is good tension and someone should tell that girl if product targeting was supposed to stop us from using it we wouldn't hardly have anything because up until the last half a decade finding black targeted products was limited to Pantene and black owned products would be a _hunt_ on the internet.

And it’s hard for them to see your disposition and try to change their mindset bc it’s mental. So you just gotta be like “sorry people in your life made you feel ashamed of your hair” and keep it moving cus there is nothing else you can say. They gotta heal on their own and hopefully they have people in their lives who can hold them accountable to their projection

I am someone who does care, and I literally use OGX. I've tried other brands, including that melanin one, but that's the one that my hair reacts the best to. And I think that's what matters in the end, what works on your hair. Again, as someone who cares about their hair, I feel like the dangers of heat damage have been over conflated. Is it the best, no, but your hair has a good tolerance for it, just don't be heating to 400° every day. And OMG, those no lather shampoos... I can't even tell if it's on my scalp, the part I want washed most, let alone my hair strands. There's a lot about the natural hair movement I love, but I feel like a lot gets lost in what is perceived as best for your hair, as opposed to what actually works best on your hair. Like, my hair has rejected most black owned brands, and having that experience has taught me that black owned doesn't automatically mean it works for my black hair. Use what works to yield the results you want.

I feel like most "clean beauty" stuff tends to work for very specific people, and I'm not one of them. I need the scientifically modified product.

I follow style and beauty doctor too! And it doesn't matter whether you have makeup or not. You're still GORGEOUS!! Edit: Now onto the video. 😄Edit 2: I have briogeo products. I have the don't despair repair shampoo and conditioner and a little bit of be kind oat milk and aloe shampoo. I heard about the "only shampoo the scalp or roots not the strands" and have been incorporating that "rule", which is kinda pointless given how short my hair is. LOL. But I do have an itchy scalp and prefer to use things like aloe, oat stuff and tea tree oil for my scalp and your average moisturizing conditioner for the strands. I'm torn between getting another be kind shampoo or just put some don't despair repair shampoo in a bottle I use to target the scalp and add some tea tree oil in it. Or I could get an old favorite (and cheaper) renpure tea tree shampoo. And I didn't know melanin haircare is at sephora! I know it's at ulta because I see it at the target near me. And those, "Must be nice" people are just jealous you have someone to handle your hair. Edit 3: Forgot to mention briogeo is no longer black owned.
