Dongho Jason rice waterfalls, please listen to the juices and the berries you're used to because this innit cheap, my hair is dry, hey, hey all, it's sure a what's up, as you can see from the tidal honey today we will be reviewing we talking about it. It'S just me today, I hope you're reviewing the new Miele. Isn'T my yellow me out? I don't know, but you better come through packaging. This is a new, my L or Miele rice water collection. I picked up two out of the four products in the line. I have the moisturizing milk as well as the clay mask y'all. All these little. These little brands are jumping on rice, water. You all know. I loves me some rice water. I got multiple videos on rice, water definitely check them out in the cars. I have an entire rice, water, playlist, no stranger to rice, water, um, so yeah. All these brands and stuff are jumping on the bandwagon and I don't have a problem with that. I personally love DIYs, but a and everybody loves no DIY. So for those of you who want to do belinda, but in rice, water, but you don't really want to DIY, that's why we have you know cater to us and whatnot. So, like I said, there are four products in the line Mia likes doing these little half lines, there's no shampoo, there's no conditioner and there's no real styler in this line, which is kind of you know, but is what it is this this little sprinkle these little Car this little car is noise like if I literally has Baxter. When I say - and this is the beautiful collection in terms of the presentation got ta give it to me out on the presentation but yeah I didn't get the shine mist, which is basically a lightweight nest that are not only adds shine, but also hydrates and blah Blah blah blah that thing was full of silicones. There are like two silicones in the top five ingredients and I don't need a shine this. I know I'm fighting to get it and I feel like I don't want fake shine, so I didn't get that there's. Also, a split and therapy which sounded good. It sounded more like a pre-poo, but I also didn't get that because I don't believe in the gimmicks that you can fix it ends if your hair is split, let's get into it right, let's get into it anyway, not so I just start off my wash day With a pre-poo, which I won't be talking about because it was basura, but I did go in with the product after that, but I really like, which is the meows shampoo. I talked about this in my previous video loves, it loves, it loves it. So we don't. We don't start, we don't start or whatever. This shampoo is great like it. It cleanses your hair really well, but it doesn't leave a feeling strip, love that about it, love to see it so I've been air drying, my hair for 20 minutes. So now it's time to go in with the rice, water claim mask and this package in a spoon. It'S really so nice I'll. Let see what it looks and smells like. Oh it has a light scent. It smells a little bit like their hawaiian ginger collection, similar very light. This is what it looks like it looks like hmm, it looks like a mass it. It looks like a clay in the sense I don't know it's like a hybrid between the clay and a conditioning treatment. So honestly, most of the ingredients in this product are conditioning products. So let's see the texture. So that's what we're looking like kind of bright, very thick, it's very thick. The first five ingredients are water, sits your alcohol BTM asks which is an emulsifier aloe vera juice and then sweet almond oil like even applying it to my hair. It feels like straight conditioner and oil. It doesn't feel detoxifying or anything, even though it claims at least on the website, to be a detoxifier. What it says this dual purpose mass is the perfect detoxifier for hair and body, so you can use it on your skin and your hair, designed to discuss off' i, by removing impurities while depositing moisture back into the hair, blah blah blah blah. But i am kind of confused, because the Clay's are literally to the bottom of ingredient list. They are Kyle and clip Kaylin clay and iliad clay, which is probably just French green play, they're literally by the fragrance and the preservative, like literally to the bottom of ingredient list yeah. I don't know if this product is a cleanser clay situation or it's a deep conditioner. I don't know because the the in directions on the packaging says to apply a generous amount of product to damp hair from root to tip leave on for fifteen to thirty minutes covered with a plastic cap and rinse may be used every two weeks, buddy and then The body we don't I'll talk about that because we know there's a hair channel, so it's basically the direction is basically to apply it like you would a deep, conditioner right right: basic English, basic English. Now, if we go on the website, no tea no shade, but we just trying to we're just kind of gon na be here on the website. It says after shampooing, which is the instructions that I use after shampooing apply a generous amount of product to damp hair. Damp hair tips, leave on to 15 to 30 minutes covered with a plastic cap and rinse follow up with a deep conditioner. So we don't know, but we gon na find out, we we don't know, but together I am Not sure I mean I'm hoping as a deep conditioner because I want watched a to be over, but I'm also not sure, since I'm just not sure so I'm done Applying the mask, I'm, you saw me have to go in with my hibiscus and I love tea because it just really wasn't applying well, it felt very stiff on the hair. It doesn't have much of any slip. I felt a lot better about it. Once I applied my tea, I felt it's softening up, but I feel better about it, but with on my tea it was definitely not going to be a favorite. Even with my tea. The verdict is still out. I'M going to sit under my hot head for about 20 minutes and then I will rinse it out. I'M still not sure whether I need to follow up with a DC or not. The verdict is still out on that. We will see, but right now, I'm feeling kind of may about it. I didn't want to say really quickly that these products wants the LME else website for five dollars: each they are regularly $ 9.99, so they are more little portable side, and I also wanted to say that, even though these products do have rice, water, rice, water is Not high up on the ingredient list, usually a product that has a high concentration of an ingredient, will have it in this top five for the mask. It'S in it's number eight number, ten scuse me I'm ingredient list. So, halfway down the ingredient list, you can find rice, bran water. Well, maybe like a third down. You can find rice, bran water and for the milk it is the 13th ingredient and it's way down on the ingredient list for them. It'S halfway down the ingredient list for the milk, so rice water is not a high concentration, so some people may say that's a gimmick. I mean do with that information as you will. So let me just go on to the my hot head and then I'll be back. So this is what my hair looks like. It actually looks pretty nice and moisturize. The clay won't that bad um isn't a product that I would go out and repurchase. I wouldn't, but now that I have it and I still have like half of use left I'll use it up. My hair has felt better, but it sure has felt worse as well so and for five dollars. You really can't beat it alright, so we're starting off pretty good. I am now gon na go in with the moisturizing milk. It says it's us Eskil, excellent, excellent for than pretension, because it does tell to have rice water but, like I've, said rice bran water. I don't know what right rice bran water is like. I know what fermented rice water is. So who knows what type of rice water is actually in this product, but it's like way down the list. It'S the 13th ingredient. According to this, it says that it's a daily moisturizer and it's perfect for bringing life back to dry, thirsty, hair, infuser, blah blah blah apply a dime sized amount from root tip on the wet or dry hair, maybe use for styling and hydration. So I'm going to use it for hydration. I don't know miele's products to have that much moisture, so well, they're leaving ever been really wowed by meals, leoben's. I don't think they're that moisturizing like the pomegranate and honey or the Hawaiian ginger. But who knows we gon na have an open mind. These products actually smell like cheap dollar tree lotion, yeah, it kind of smells. It'S giving me a pink lotion by kind of sounds like a cheap hair lotion or cheap body lotion um. So oh it's big. It'S just speak for me I'll and the same thing for the mass. The mass was very thick. Usually their products are very thin and lightweight, but these products were a lot thicker than they usually tend to be. Okay, I'm gon na apply a bit more. I kind of feel like I'm applying body lotion on my hair. I don't know I don't know y'all, so I'm applying that much. It doesn't feel like I'm applying anything, but we just won't keep fighting on and we're just gon na keep fighting on. I'M going to go in because I'm not crazy, I'm not gon na use it by itself, even though you technically can use hair milks by themselves. Sometimes I have kinky hair and I'm gon na be realistic, so I'm gon na go in with a lot of body with milk, honey, refined me curl, defining mousse y'all know I like the original a lot of body movement, natural hair, but I'm out of lotta BAE Have plenty of videos on that, so I'm just going to use this newest regimen. It came out like a year ago, but this is my first time trying it. Let'S talk about this moisturizing milk for a second, the first five ingredients are water, coconut oil, sorbitol, isopropyl, mistreat and citerior alcohol. This is the first meal leaving where I feel like it has a very high oil content. It'S very thick and I find it at least on initial application to be very moisturizing. I'M not sure how that's going to change as I apply. You know the product and it dries and what not or how long the moisture will last so right now, I'm actually surprised. I know I seem kind of iffy at first but after the product seeped into my hair, I felt a lot better about it. I also wanted to say that this product actually does contain a silicon. It contains cyclo penta stelazine. I personally did not realize it had a comb when I bought it because I would not have bought it as it is the seventh ingredient. You all know I'm what, if I CG, I will Dibble and dabble in some grease, but I'm really bad bang with silicone that maybe a little backwards. But that's just me so this product does have silicones, but it feels good on my hair so far. It also has anthem gum towards the end of the ingredient list, so I did find that it actually defined my hair. I couldn't use it alone for a twist out or braids or anything. Obviously I ain't doing a wash and go, but I did find that it did pack some definition as well. So we don't see, we don't see what it do all right. Y'All these are the finished results. I sat under the dryer for an hour last night and then this morning I woke up and sat on the dryer for another 30 minutes, my hair. It was fully dry and this review really took a turn. Um. Last night I felt like my hair. I felt nice and hydrated, but remember what I told you it smelt like body lotion. Well, my hair feels like I put body lotion on it, even though it's kind of shaking a little bit, I pinned it to the side, because when I was completely down, you could really see how dry and stiff it was um. I put it up so it kind of made it look like. I fell off, something let it shake, but I don't like this leaving besides my hair feeling dry and a rock to the Taj another rough and tough feeling um. Besides my hair feeling rough and tough, you got put an accent on it. You know rough and tough um, it's dry, it's it's dry and it's flaking, because I think of the xanthan gum in this product there was like solid. I think they probably like knocked out of my hair, I'm not really seeing them as much what you can kind of see them, especially in like this area. I'M not sure if it's picking up on camera, there's flaking from the xantham gum and like it's gummy in certain places where I applied too much, we all know I'm heavy-handed I will or not, but there's product. I know I love where I can use as much as I want. I'M just not going to get flakes, so I leave in with with casillas. I'M gum just really can go south. The best product I use today was honestly with a lot of body moves. I think my hair has a lot of shine and body and pretty good definition, because my hair is dry. It'S not locking in the definition like you're, not gon, na get a good definition on dry hair, at least for me. I don't get good definition on dry hair. If my hair was moisturized, it would have looked a lot smoother and silk here, so definitely going to use this mousse again, but the leave-in I'm going to give it away to a friend honestly, I told her to come for it tomorrow I won't hold on. I will hold on to the mass because I love I love the packaging of the mask. I thought it was a pretty okay. Last, isn't the best mask I've ever used? No, would I be okay with giving it away? I would but I want the packaging and I just don't trust that hole to return mine to return my packaging, so I'm gon na keep it and use it up. I mean I only have so little left, but I would say overall, this line was a mess. Obviously, I've only tried half the line, but just based on the views I finally watched now guys you know, have my own thoughts. I I wouldn't recommend this line. If you want to symbol in Java in rice, water, I suggest you watch some of my videos watch. Some other videos and make your own or there's a bunch of other companies that sell rice water products as well, and you can look them up. I'M not gon na name drop them here, but just use your Google's. I would say this is a path. Obviously, I'm all for supporting black women. It'S really an expensive line. It'S ten dollars. It was five dollars on sale right now it is sold out you're, not even able to get it right now, but even if you could, I wouldn't, but everyone's hair is different. Maybe it will work for you, but for me um, the mass was just okay but the leave-in my hair is like this is literally the next day and my hair is dry and that's just kind of the theme with my al. I never really get long staying hydration from it and the silicones don't help, because the silicone gives you thick full moisture. But that is my thoughts. I that's what you got ta wash it with you towards the end to the end, because my opinions have changed. So I'm probably gon na wash my hair midweek um and do a deep condition because my hair is dry, so that's it! This video has been long enough. Thank you guys so much for watching. I love you so much and I'll talk to y'all later peace plate. He
Comments
love you: Has anyone noticed that hair products are being treated like fast fashion. Every month there is a new collection from the same line. It's getting ridiculous!
K Courtney: Thanks for the review. A cosmetologist once told me when a brand invests heavily in the packaging and marketing of a product the formula is going to be lacking.
Miya: I haven’t used Mielle since November, and I don’t plan to. She left a VERY bad taste in my mouth during her Black Friday sale. I understand she was backed up, but I ordered my products as soon as the sale started and did not receive them until JANUARY! That’s right! More than a month later. My friends who ordered wayyyy after me received their products before i did. I reached out to her company numerous amounts of times and she did not respond. She didn’t even offer me a refund, a free product, etc. I called my bank so quick and said it was fraud. I got my money back so quick. She’s so rude!
rachel k: I’m on punishment, not buying anything new until I use up all my hair products Love seeing the reviews though
Mom2StNick: I died when she said the milk smelled like dollar store lotion I love how SheRea always keeps it real! Most YouTubers are clout chasing sponsors so they act like they like everything but SheRea is gonna keep it
LaLaAgnostic R.: This ingredients list is wild! Even when looking at it from the inci perspective of how it’s listed is massive! I can make a hair mask with 5 ingredients including clay and do better than that! None of my products have a list this long! I swear people sleeping on small business owners like myself, but if this is what happens when you “ get big” I’ll pass
Evryting Kriss: So....they formulated trash products but still decided to sell them (at a discounted price) to recover their money. Okay Mielle! Subpar is an understatement!
Simply JazzyD: I passed on this line because it seemed gimmicky to me. The fact that the ingredients in the name our at the bottom of the list is shady and I'm tired of companies doing that. The mask can be used on your body also if you don't like it on your hair.
Charnae Robinson: I advise everyone if you’re going to purchase a brand don’t look at the reviews on their website. I noticed that none of her products have less that a 3 star review. I purchased the rosemint oil line because the reviews on her site were decent. Long story short the conditioner left my hair very matted and took a lot of my hair out. I searched the same line on target after this happened and the reviews are very different than they are on the main site. A lot of women experienced the same thing I did. I’ll know better to do more research next time.
Tracy and Ryan: I'm done! THAT'S IT! GAME OVER! We are never going to keep length or grow our hair longer if we continue this vicious cycle! We need consistency from a product brand that's honest about its ingredients, who doesn't have to change the line every month. Just make 1 shampoo, 1 conditioner, 1 styler & stop playing games w/the customers. I threw out every product that I ever bought at the store. DIY all the way for me now bc this is complete CHAOS! I CAN'T, I CAN'T, I CAN'T DO THIS!
D Boone: This has just confirmed that I need to leave Mielle alone (yes she has a few good products) but I think she has more products that are a miss smh. I’m just going to give what I bought away- I don’t even want to play with my hair like that lol Thanks for the video!!
TheShereeBear: It’s so interesting to see that you love that Mielle Pomegranate and Honey shampoo. My hair hates it, it strips the life out of it and detangling is a work out afterwards. I love the conditioner to it though. But my hair LOVES the Adwoa beauty and Miche beauty shampoos and I remember you not liking those. It’s so true that everyone’s hair reacts differently to products.
Devin Pickron: Smh when brands use an ingredient in the product’s name and then use very little of said ingredients in the product as evidence by it being at the very end of the list
Reservechic: I was a littled intrigued about purchasing from the collection, due to the products being so cheap. But, then I began to think to myself, after checking out all of the product ingredients, that rice water should be in the top five, hell even the top 3 ingredients of all of this stuff. Plus, he hair milk has a non water soluble-silicone in it. Now I’m not against companies putting cones in their products, but when you put a non water soluble silicone on a product, that ingredient is just like putting Satan wrap around your entire head, therefore, the other ingredients in the product aren’t going to be able to fully penetrate ones hair strands and you don’t be able to reap the full benefits of them at all. Plus, there’s no way in this world that I could just a hair milk on my hair as a styler. It’s never worked well in the past, so I definitely had my reservations about whether it would work now. I just feel this collection is nothing more than a “money grab”. If gals really want the best benefits from rice water it would be to make it themselves, or to buy it from a brand who can really deliver such in more of a pure way, so that you can truly reap all of the major benefits from it. Which is why, it would take a miracle for me to buy anything else from Mielle, because I’ve tried a number of products from them and my hair didn’t really respond well to none of it. I chose to support them due to their being a Black owned brand, but unfortunately, I just can’t keep spending my coins with them and taking one L after another. So, when it comes to Mielle I’m out. Oh, and you’re absolutely right about the Lottabody Mousse being the star of the show. Because God only knows how much worse things would have turned out had you just used the hair milk all by itself in your hair. Plus, Mielle needs to stop touting their products as being natural, because they definitely aren’t and never have been. Plus, quite a number of the products have been recirculated and are no longer silicone free. Some people’s hair can handle silicones all the time without any issues, but my hair just isn’t about that life. When I use a product that is not silicone free i will use it very seldom, but for the most part using silicone free products definitely work best for my hair overall.
CheekyLovesCheeseCake:): I'm so grateful for natural hair content creators Y'all have put me on to a lot good products AND saved me from hella bullshit. Just know your work is not in vain P.S: Is that a black Tommy Pickles on your shirt?
KendiaMarie: That clay mask doesn't even have clay in it. It has neutral henna extract and that's way at the bottom. It's a good sale but I'm tired of brands promoting an ingredient that barely even has any of the ingredient they're promoting.
Soul Food and Trap Music: Thanks for this honest review! I thought about getting it when they had their $6 sale, but i'm like I could make my own ricewater and I can bet this is trash--and your review was everything!!
Denise Perry: Thank you for being honest. In our world of brand ambassadors and fake reviews it’s hard to find honesty. We and our pockets appreciate you sis!
blkbry 1972: That packaging threw you all the way off at the beginning, my girl was shooketh! Even though this was a good sale, not one of the products tickled my fancy so I passed. Tfs
Cornelia R.: When I first saw this new collection on the website I was excited for some new new. But then I looked into the ingredients and was like "nah, no thanks ma'm". Full of silicones and other stuff nobody needs (in my opinion). I'm not against someone using silicones, if it works for you then use it. I just noticed that they don't work with my hair. Furthermore, I was "disappointed" about the rice water. I don't like when companies advertise their products with ingredients they know are on trend and people gravitate towards, but then have little to nothing of that ingredient in their products. Always turn the bottle guys!
rogueteacher1: Girl I won these products on IG and I’m just not too jazzed to try them yet. Thanks for your review as always ❤️
Jorie April: Thanks for this review! Mielle will get you with the sales girl!!! This whole quarantine, I think they have had the best sales...but...I knew to pass up this line just because when I made my own rice water it dried my hair up honey!!!! And I agree, why is it not a full line?!?! I do love the Pomegranate & Honey but I just ordered the Hawaiian ginger, so hopefully that works on my high porosity type 3/4 hair.
Judy B Jones: Chile I impulse bought this collection cause of the $5 price tag and now I’m regretting it . A lot of reviews say these are really gimmicks and don’t really do anything
Tanya Heath: The Hawaiian Ginger line was whack for my assorted 4a/b hair, and I didn't even buy this. I was waiting for reviews--I'm hyper sensitive to protein so I don't even want to look twice at rice water at all. I can't even do coconut oil! I spent a lot of time eyeballing their ingredients for this line. LAWD, the dryness is what happened to me with the Hawaiian line and said never again. Thanks for your honest review and I'm sorry it failed you! Queen, keep it up!
Naturally Nishy: This is exactly what I thought of the line when I heard about it. It just didn't sit well with me. I'm always confused about those clay masks. Never sure if it's a DC or a cleansing product so I generally steer clear of them. Thanks for this review
NJ Eberhart: Feel the same about the clay masque. Didn’t get the milk and I’m glad that I didn’t. Thanks for the review love ❤️
Danie Mae: You are HILARIOUS sis!!! I love watching your videos very informative !!! I haven't been able to find too many 4b/c naturalistas that have high porosity hair that go into as much detail as you do. Keep it up love!
Celeste Bell: I stopped using all product on my hair. I went back to when I was a child in my Nana's kitchen getting my hair washed and braided using Royal Crown haorgrease. Works for me and my pockets
Myrna J: Was Waiting for this Review before I even thought about Purchasing that line!! Love your Review as I always do.
kit to the kat: Thanks for keeping it real once again girl
Shanyta Russell: I used this line and experienced a LOT of shedding! My hair was literally just falling out. Stopped using the product and the first wash with natural ingredients- minimal shedding.
BklynButters: I'm really glad I watched this because I did order 1 of the clay masks and now I know how I want to use it. Even though it doesn't really have much of any actual clay in it, I do really like the other ingredients it has. So I think I'll mix it into my DIY ayurvedic-bentonite clay masks so that I can get more definition and elongation than from using it alone. I did also get 2 of the Split End Therapy because it has hydrolyzed collagen, hydrolyzed castor oil and rice bran water as the 2nd, 3rd and 5th ingredients respectively and I wanted to use it on my scalp and the entire length of my hair as a pre-leave in and daily treatment. I figured it couldn't hurt my hair or scalp and may even infuse some more strength into my fine strands. Who knows lol. ♀️ I didn't even think about getting the other products because... silicones. I already have trouble retaining moisture since I have high porosity hair, so I don't even think about silicones much less use them.
Erika Fleming: More and more I’m thinking I need to go back to my faithful TMC Ancient Egyptian Line. My hair was flourishing with only that line and my DIY treatments; until I turned into a product junkie. ♀️
Student Dr. Taylor: Thanks for the honest review! I don’t get good definition on dry hair either.. Keep the reviews coming sissss. “I don’t trust that hoe to return my packaging” you are hilarious
John JohnRN86: My mielle order came today and we literally got the same products. I didn’t get the shine mist because I saw the silicones so I’m very disappointed to hear that the moisturizer has silicones. I don’t believe in spending a lot of money on cheap ingredients. That’s why I wasn’t messing with pattern beauty products. Luckily the mielle stuff were $5 but unless that mask does something nice to my hair, I’m expecting it to be as bad as the moisture rx line which I truly hated. Love your reviews. I’m definitely going to watch your rice water videos.
John JohnRN86: I watched this video before my products arrived. I tried out the mask and actually added my own clay to it- for that it really wasn’t bad . My hair was soft. But the hair milk was TERRIBLE!!!!!!!! I would not have purchased it had I realized it contained silicones. It was drying like I’ve never experienced.
Tisha: Okay we need a full version of a TLC “Rice Waterfalls” remix !!
Impress Williams: Lol Omg, I love your personality sis! I just recently bought the New Mielle Rice Water Collection and I really liked it. It kept my hair super moisturized. Their also really affordable!
Joy Deja King: SO excited to watch this video!! I was eyeing these products. I know this review will be based on facts and hilarious at the same time!! No #fakeshine I just love her
Brittany Motlow: Mielle hasn’t been the same since their first and second collection ♀️♀️
Shanik C: I bought the split hair treatment because these single strand knots are killing meeeeee. But now I’m like damn, what a waste. I just need to trim my hair . Thank you for the review!! Saved me looking into getting the others things
Naturally Lisa: Hello SheRea! Thanks for your review and your honesty. I purchased them because of the $5 but I haven't used them yet.
Simply Isha: I feel like the dryness comes from the fact that the product has silicones. When my conditioner has silicones, I don’t mind since I’ll rinse it out but when stylers have silicones it tends to leave my hair hella dry
Bella Flora: 'Mielle likes doing these lil half lines' Facts 'If your hair is split, cuUuuutttt ittttt' LOL
wcallisa22: any product with btms IS NOT A CLEANSER.......Btms is a cationic conditioner and cationic conditioners stick to the hair......so that is an oxymoron using this to clean your hair is like cowashing lol
Monkeyylover: I bought this and regret it too after all these reviews lmao , what do you think about using it with oil pree poo? And DC after ? Also your hair is very pretty
vispandex: The only acceptable hair milk from them is the avocado hair milk, the pomegranate line works well on other people but not on my confused hair.
Alexis Edwards: I Love how real of a natural hair channel you are! New subscriber here
20something: These brands are definitely on youtube watching the natural hair trends.
Olivia N. Matthew: TFS! I took one look at this line quickly closed my browser tab. I was super disappointed with the animal derived and silicone ingredients. I like the mositure RX line(you should try the anti-breakage conditioner) but it made me think; I give them my hard earn coins for them to release new collections like this, that I can't use?!? Nah sis, Soultanicals can take the money I was giving them....
Godisluv77: Thanks for saving me my coins on this product lol..... Personally I don't prefer hair products that says for skin and hair I need something more specific
QueenJoose LaMonica: Yea...i watched Linda Lynn's review. She went off lolz, she was not impressed and called the owner out on vid and in her pinned comment. So Mielle owner popped on the scene saying she used them all wrong. She even said she didnt watch all the vid. Wrong move.....cuz Lynn went by the "instructions" on the products. The owner said the mask was not meant to detangle and that she was suppose to apply to saturated hair ... So of course all of us followers commented and had her back. This line is just on the band wagon cuz of the rice water trend. Nopes, it aint getting my coins lolz. My fave from Mielle is the Mint and Babassu dc. Thats all ive tried...
Shay Hills: Thanks for your review! It will be a pass for me too!! I hollered when you coughed and said your hair was dry. I will only purchase if it’s bomb and this is a miss. Coins will stay in my pocket.
Healy Means: thanks for sharing your thoughts. from the reviews i've seen so far, this line is a pass. from my own perspective, with no cleanser and deep/conditioner, this line is a pass. i make my own rice water, so no FOMO here. stay safe.
CurlyNella1011: I got 3 masks and 1 hair milk and the fact you have to use a leave in under the hair milk is crazy. I'm all about shortening my routine and not making it long.
Quamina Johnson: I saw the CEO of mielle on the real talking about her creating this rice water collection and what was a red flag was she said that rice water is from Africa and she wanted to create this line because rice water has been trending all over so I thought that was a little weird she said all of that clearly she created this line because rice water is trending all over so.......
Kennis Powell: My product junkie days are long behind me.For the last few years over been using shampoo conditioner and grease.. that's is and my natural type 4 hair bsl. I've seen both sides of natural hair care and all these products are gemics. I use what my granny used.
Tiffany Rauls: Tfs...I will not be giving this a try but it’s just so satisfying to watch you do your hair and apply products ❤️❤️❤️
Purple K: Everyone is roasting this line lol. I knew it was gonna be trash. When I got the notification I knew it was gimmicky and clicked delete. I'm so glad I didn't buy this rice water line.
Shay Sitney: This is what you call a review hunty
The Lee Williams Show: Thank u for offering a genuine opinion. It’s well appreciated.
Latisha Jamerson: I really feel like she’s just about making her money now.
The Third Eye Journey: Sis I’m trying to keep an open mind on these products but... This entire launch has just been a joke.
Maia B.: I tried the mask and it made my hair really dry. At first when I was applying it was great, but once I rinsed it out and also that hair milk has a silicone...I’m having to give mine away!!
I Mac: The packaging lately on these lines have been too tier while the ingredients . They should know the inside is more important. Smh
Autumn 432hz: After Cyn Doll broke down how rice water breaks down the hair bond in the long run, i stopped and threw the rice water thought out of my brain
Antoinette: So many people gave this an unfavorable review. I wonder what made them zero in on that one particular youtuber.
Qiana: So shocked you bought this but so glad you did because I don’t want fake shine either Sis!
Shari-Lee Davis: I find it so weird that you can use this product on your skin and the only product I have from mielle is their hair milk and it does my hair good. I used their coil sculpting custard and it was horrible for my hair
Shamikah Dray: I like how you discuss ingredients. Thanks luv!
CravingNaturalHair: I always enjoy watching your videos! Really love your energy
CoolCalmChris: I bought the mask the lotion and the split in treatment I’m not crazy about the mask but I do like the lotion and the split end treatment so far.
Bridget: I think the clay mask is an unnecessary step. It doesn’t detoxify and it doesn’t provide the moisture that you would get from a deep conditioner. Hopefully they come out with a styler
T Will: I ❤️ your personality and realness ! You remind me of YouTuber, Faye in the City ! You two are awesome, keep up the good work
Feron Flo: Hmm I think the reason my hair felt so good is bc I used a leave in them the hair milk followed by my styler which was the hair smoothie. I did it this way based on her live so I was assuming the hair milk wasn’t meant to be used alone but they should state that on the instructions if this is so. Sorry you had a bad experience!
F G: I’m a sucker for a sale but something in me stopped me from pick this up. First off my hair ain’t with the rice water lol I tired black rice water and my hair was like yeeett, tangles. Secondly the price tag threw me in a loop because I’m like why so low when it’s brand spanking new? I like deals but this deal was a little too speculative that’s all
T.K.: a review i watched before yours said the same thing about how it felt moisturized while she was applying the products , then her final result was dry (when her hair is usually moisturized)
Nadia Frazier: I feel like this line would be good for somebody that has thin hair vs thick hair. I wanna try it, but then the reviews make me not lol
Lexx Full: Rice water seems to strengthen the hair moreso than moisture. I'll be sticking to the Original, Rx, and Pomegranate line.
Darrin: I'd like to see a full wash and style using only your favorite products
Alexis Simmons: This is why I didn’t buy the line lol. Something told me this line wasn’t it. I remember when her Original line of products were actually organic and that’s when they worked for my hair. Once the ingredients changed, my hair didn’t like her original line anymore. My hair does like the rosemary mint line and I do love her marketing and packaging. Most of her lines just don’t work for me. Thanked for reviewing it for us!
Stacey Andrus: I Really Enjoyed Watching This Review. Thank You For Sharing, And For Giving Us A True Review❣️♥️
Hiatus A.S.: Im really glad im not the only person who is experiencing the same thing with the products. MY HAIR IS THICKER BUT THIS IS NOT IT!!.
Monica M: I knew your review was gonna tell me what I really wanted to know. I’m about at the point that most of my products creators have the same texture as mine. No Mielle for me
WaterBaby Kendra: Thanks for your honest opinion because I definitely almost bought it
Felicia Dunn: I agree with you! If the line is trash just say it. Linda Lynn hated the line as well and the CEO Monique contacted her and was saying she was wrong about her review.
BklynButters: The shine spray isn't the only product in this line that has silicones, the moisture milk does to. It contains cyclopentasiloxane (which is a silicone) pretty high up in the ingredients, FYI.
Failedpuberty6x: How do you mess up rice water.....it's water...that's touched rice....I don't know-does the prospect of profits just make companies temporarily stoooopid?
D: Looking at the placement of the clays on the ingredients list, they have added no more than 1% of the kaolin and Illite
Carlos Cecilio Beauty: I’ve been using the rosemary mint line for about a year and the rosemary and mint in all the products are all the way at the bottom. A bunch of ingredients can’t pronounce. Ppl complaining about the rice water collection but all her collections that I have used were like that like the original. Even the mint almond oil, it’s 90% soybean and the rest of it is almond and peppermint which is different from mint. Ya’ll just love to jump on the bandwagon. From the jump she’s been in it for the money; which is cool. The packaging isn’t original. The most original thing was the first line. The rest is literally mirroring the mane choice . Anyway, use what works ya’ll. She just tryna feed her kids . Honestly, I’ve only ever really purchased when I was buying natural hair products on a budget. Been over she’s moisture. Mane choice expensive (now it isn’t black owned), Camille is hard to find (and expensive af), curls reminds me of deva curl (won’t work for my pre slavery hair), etc etc. so Mielle $9.99 it was. Now I mostly use Olaplex the entire line. Hair has been fantastic: but they seem a lil racist so now I gotta find something that works, black, and has integrity. Chile.
Ebonee Millican: I just found your page and I love your personality and your honesty!! You kill me
tenekqua1: Great video and review. I just was not interested. I think Mielle does shampoos and DCs well but styling products tend to be a miss for me... Thank you for sharing!!
❄️Naturally Kool🌬️: I'll stick with my dyi rice water. Been waiting for you...Thanks for your honest demo/review
baybischam: I just stumbled across your channel and your Rice Water results have inspired to give it a go. But I think I'll be DIYing it to be honest using your recipes if that's OK. Also do you have a video for your Growth Oil as I really need a good oil to use and yours seems like it's very good based on the results you've gotten so far.
Khadia Baptiste: Im so glad u did a review on these products! Funny thing is me and mama ordered those same two products out of the rice water line couple weeks ago ♀️......What is that paper like thingy that you put on ur ends before you rolled the twists up?
Nicola Valentine: The mask seems waxy when you applied it to the hair. I also looked at the ingredients and have noticed that clay and rice bran water was not at the top of the list. There should be more moisture for the mask and hair milk.
Naturally Rachel: Oh no I'm scared now. I have 4c hair to. I wish I had seen your post before purchasing.SMH I've always been sceptical of Mielle. Their products seem to be geared for type 3 hair to a 4a. Not coarse non curly hair.
Stacey-Ann Gordon: My-elle sis. Once Mielle dropped Organics, they lost their appeal. Smaller black businesses for the win.
Waxy Jas: I thought it was a DC but when I read the directions and it said to go in with deep conditioner after rising I was pissed. I was ready for wash day to be done.
LaCostasDreams: I wish I would have used a leave in under my milk because my hair was so dry, dry, and dry after my hair dried. I’m going to try a leave in next time.
