It'S Black History Month that we're celebrating this is some black magic material. Look at this volume, though hey guys it's of the submarine here welcome back to my channel today. I'M really really excited for this video. I feel like I say that every time but like I'm extra excited today, because I'm gon na talk about something that is very near and dear to my heart and honor a Black History Month. I wanted to honor all of my favorite natural hair, fair brands that are black owned. I love to support my own, which is why I'm so so excited to do this. Video, like it's just it's so uplifting and empowering to see other black women or other black men like excelling, and just doing the damn thing, and I just love, love, love to support it and just sitting here right now and seeing all of these amazing products in Front of me just gives me so much pride. I love it. I mean I could talk about black girl magic all day, but let's just go ahead and get started actually wait before we get started. Please make sure that you were subscribed to my channel, please that help your girl out so just sit here and watch my videos and not be subscribed. It'Ll. Make me really sad, alright. So, let's get into this, I am NOT gon na list any of this out. In any specific order, it's really just around an order in terms of how they're laid out on the table in front of me. So the first brand that I want to talk about is curls. So my favorite of the curls Brown, like ultimate favorite, is their blueberry blitz collection. That collection has been game-changing. So specifically, I really love the leave-in conditioner, as well as the reparative hair masque. These two are the bomb.com like on a wash day. If you go and use this mask and then style with this leaving conditioner and then use whatever gel on top, your curls won't be defined and shiny every single time so good, and it also smells like a blueberry heaven. It is balm. I actually also just recently started using their blissful lengths liquid hair growth vitamin as well. So let me tell you a little thing about growth vitamins. I haven't you any throughout my entire natural hair journey until now, so I just wanted to clarify that the reason for that is when I was younger in college. While I still have my relaxed hair, I tried Hairfinity pills and they broke me out like crazy. My face was covered in acne, so ever since then, I have been so scared and just refusing it to touch any other hair growth vitamins. Then I heard about these, which are liquid, so apparently the liquid formulation makes it a lot different, so I've been using this. I was so nervous at first, but I'm happy to report. This is my second bottle, which is almost done actually and I haven't experienced any acne like how I did before. I have been super pleased with this and I'm just going to continue and see like what. My growth looks like I'm always taking pictures y'all know so I'll, be able to compare, maybe in like the next 3 or 4 months to see, if, like there has been a drastic increase in my level of hair growth. Alright, next up, I'm gon na talk about design, essentials and natural hair. They have this eminent avocado, curl enhancing mousse that is so bomb. I actually use it in my hair today. So the thing I like about this mousse is that it actually gave me a lot of volume, but still helped me maintain some curl definition. I washed my hair today, like maybe two three hours ago and look at the volume okay. This is not heard of. For me for day, one especially well, I'm still used to using gel. So when I started to use this, I was like wow. This is incredible. You guys actually recommended this on Instagram, so shoutout to y'all alright. So next I want to talk about. Camille Rose that I'm so like I'm so sad right now, because the product that I wanted to talk about was curl maker, but I could not find it for the life of me and, like I'm, I feel a little bit lost without it. So I'm gon na put up a little cute little photo of it right here and basically the chrome maker is like life-changing as well. It is such a good gel. You guys have probably heard about me speak about this multiple times. This is one of those products that I've used throughout the very beginning of so hair journey. All the way up until now, it has always worked with my curls always worked the same. It is just bond if you like incredible curl definition with incredible shine. It is so good, it is one of those products that at first once it's drying down, it will leave a bit of a crunchy cast. But if you just fluff your hair out with your hands like this, the crunch goes away and you're just left with super defined, defined and shiny curls. I also love love love to use it when I'm slipping back. My hair is so good like it like. Flyaways are not a thing when you're using Chrome maker, alright on to the next one, so kinky curly is another really great brand. Another really great gel. This gel is actually very similar to the curl maker, so they're not today, leaving conditioner and they're curling custard gel match made in heaven. So, whenever I need to do a wash day on like a Sunday and then not have to worry about my curls, not refresh them too much not have to worry about frizz or anything like if I'm going on a trip or something for like a full week. Need my curls, nice and maintained these are the styling products that I go to for my washing gold like these are so good. This gel is so hardcore. Frizz we're okay. As soon as you actually comb it through your curls, you can feel it just like gripping them and defining them God. This also works on all curl types. I would say best for maybe type three to four curls. I feel like this gel actually works the best with this leave-in conditioner, so I always use them together. Alright, let's see what else we got here: ooh, the honey and sage deep conditioner by alakay naturals. This is so good. This is one of those things that smells like something that you could eat like a nice cinnamony chocolaty kind of dessert like it smells so good, but it is also so very effective in your hair as a deep conditioner. It is so balm for moisture like that. Is the main thing that you get moisture and softness? This is actually great for all hair types, every single one. It'S just one of those go to products if you feel like your hair is just looking a little bit tired. Looking a little bit dull, a little bit dry and frizzy like this is what I will reach for it to give it that bounce back. This is the thing man, when women with natural hair, create products for other women with natural hair. It'S just it's just a match made in heaven. We know what we're doing alright. Next, I want to talk about Brio Gio. I never know if I'm saying this name right, is it Breo, Gio abrió Gio like where? Where does the emphasis lie? I have no idea, but I'm just gon na call it Rio Gio, because that's just the easiest thing for me to say their entire curl charisma line is Bom. In particular, I really love their curl, defining conditioner for his control gel and the coil custard. So good, especially this coil custard, this is Bom, especially for type 3 to 4 hair types like I can even wear this without a jaw on top, and it gets me to fight, and it gives me a lot of volume as well another one of my favorite Things about this brand itself, like in general, is that they are so focused on using more clean and more non-toxic ingredients in their haircare products, which I am a huge fan of so on all of their products. You'Ll see it'll, say no sulfates, no silicones and no parabens, like those are the main things that I always look for in products to see whether it's beneficial or not, and all of their products are formulated without that bad stuff. So I really really love brands like that, because anything that they come out with. You know that you can just completely trust that at least it'll be healthy for your curls all right. Next, we got to talk about tph, I'm just gon na go over this. Very briefly, because I did an entire long, detailed video reviewing the entire collection, some products, I loved some products. I didn't love so, if you're interested in finding out which ones I will go ahead and link that up here for you to check out so my ultimate top 3 favorite products from her entire election have got to be the hair scrub, the scalp cleanse and then The gel the Scout products specifically were life-changing. Y'All gon na have to watch a video to find out, but his life changing so good and the gel I've heard a lot of other mixed reviews on the gel me personally. In the way that I used it, I didn't experience any flakes at all. I must have worn my hair for at least four days after and zero flakes whatsoever. So three, what else we got here as I am okay, so everybody knows about the as I am a coconut co-wash and if you don't know where have you been, this is the most creamy delicious Kailash I've ever used, it's so moisturizing, but yeah. It'S so deeply cleansing. At the same time like I don't even understand how it works. This is also another product, that's really great for every single hair type, it's just so good. This is just such an effective product, another one that just works the same every single time. It doesn't have the harsh Sun thing like how regular shampoos do you all already know, I'm not into shampoo. If you want to hear about that as well, I will link lots of links in this video, but I will link this up here as well. Alright, so those are a few of my favorite natural haircare brands and my favorite of their products. There are also a lot of other brands out there that I wanted to mention that are kind of like on my list to try. So they are melanin, haircare, Carol's, Daughter, meow, soul, Tana, Cole's, mixed chicks, Oh Ian and then tgin. I only have one head of hair: that's pretty much! The only reason why I haven't gotten a chance to try these brands, but they're definitely definitely on my list of next to try so make sure you're subscribed. So you guys can see when those reviews come out. Coz, I will be doing some more reviews, especially with me kind of giving up, diva curl for the moment so yeah guys that is it for this video, a happy Black History Month.

Hasna حسناء: Love this video! Can't wait to try some of these products. Already using the Tgin green tea super moist leave in conditioner with green tea and argan oil.. it is BOMBBB!!
TheDivineFeline: I love the Curls leave in conditioner and their mask. The leave in keeps my hair moisturized and I love how thick the mask is. It leaves my hair very soft. I have the Design Essentials mousse but I havent used it yet but I'm sure I will like it. I still don't know how I feel about the kinky curly combo but I will try it again. The Alikay Naturals Sage conditioner didn't really do anything for me but I only had a sample of it. I love that TPH scalp scrub. It felt so good and relaxing to use. Her master cleanse was stripping but I want to try the scalp conditioner as well. After seeing your review of TPH scalp products & Taraji use them in her Vogue video I had to try them!

I bought the Goddess Strength collection by Carol's Daughter but I haven't used it yet. The use of black seed in it intrigued me. I'm currently using the Coco Creme collection and I do like it.
Hailey McCrea: I cannot wait for the Melanin Haircare review!! Also have you tried the lemongrass leave in from Alikay Naturals? It's amazing

May LaVerne Barnes: We have similar taste as Honey and Sage is my favorite DC and Curls is another favorite. Bask&Bloom is a recent favorite particularly their shampoo bar, Brahmi Masque, Ease Leave-In, More Moisture, and their Twirly Gel. Adwoa Beauty and KeraVada are my favorites too. I will be trying Camille Rose, Uniqurl, Eden Bodyworks, Koils By Nature, Aveda, Earth Supplied, Mielle, and Kinky Koily Tresses for the first time.

Thothme.: It’s not how you start out It’s how you finish the thang See it’s just makin the moves go ahead and get in the race. Paradise is not a place. Paradise is what you make. Let’em hate because slavery was a bad thing. Find a niche that people aren’t selling and people need -and make it happen or don’t. I understand Polarity and my mind. If your a business owner or not. Meditate every day and vision-imagine, manifest= same thing. See yourself constantly with money all around you, stuffed in your pockets, shirt, in your shoes etc... Meditating every day is for success, health, prosperity, love and the list goes on. You must have a strong healthy mind to work along these thieves, liars aka,” other businesses, Google ads and the state politics. To navigate this very lucrative game within the American corporation. America is not a country anymore. It’s a corporation and a place to do business. Ain’t no one talking about it because of fear- or saying,” whatever and getting rich. Let’em hate, so what and your immediate family are the worst ones. I send them Christmas presents, pay moms rent because she’s too self destructive to own a home, bs on YouTube and just do it. It’s nice during this BS to take private flights to absorb those gamma rays down south, South America or the Virgin Islands. Y’all all deserve to be rich but that’s on you. I love y’all.
Trenice: Luv your hair,makeup,and video!New subbie
jamie Henson: I’m ready for you to try Melanin Haircare!!!
Duraunte Jackson: This is something we need to INVEST IN
Angela B: I wish you’d list the products in the description. You don’t even need to link them. Just list them and link your amazon thing you always do too.
Maryam Kapama: I love you Alyssa, love from
serious: Ohhhh....your hair is EVERYTHING!!!! And you're a gorgeous woman to match :) thanks for the vid...by the way, are you sure that As I Am is black owned? I heard otherwise, but I'll have to do more research..
Ashley Curtis: OMG, thank you so much I’m tryna go shopping for my kinda hair products owned by black owners, Do u suggest any of these to wear when going to bed? (when I sleep I wear a bonnet)
