DEVACURL RUINED MY HAIR | MY HAIR LOSS STORY

- Hello everyone! Today's video is extremely serious, and I honestly didn't notice how actually serious it was while I was filming, until I joined a Facebook group of 20,000 + girls/guys going through the exact same thing! If you are planning on getting a diva cut, have used diva curl products, or are currently using them, STOP. PLEASE. Watch this video before making any decisions!
***** I want to point out, if it isn’t clear in my video, the Deva CUT isn’t the problem, the Deva Curl PRODUCTS are the problem*****
Also, I am not wearing a beanie because I have bald spots or anything, my hair is actually quite normal, thankfully, because I only used their products twice, but my heart feels so much for the people who used their products everyday. If this is what happened to me after using their products TWICE, I could only imagine what can happen to people who use them everyday for years at a time! :((( If you are suffering damage from DevaCurl, I am so so sorry! We have all been fooled and deceived.
LMK if you have any questions, comments, or concerns!

Your before photos are killing me 😩 you used to have such glamorous hair
Ayesha Malik yours too babe, I hope our hair heals soon 🥺🥺💛💛💛
@Ayesha Malik, Girl ur video was the first I saw about DC. It alarmed me and I immediately stopped using DC. Please keep updating us, good luck
Have you seen Jennifer Allwoods video about her hair loss
Ayesha Malik don’t lie.
Summer Lucio she’s lying? Bout what 🤦🏻♀️
The ‘build up’ you’re scraping off your hair is NOT buildup. That’s the first layer of your hairs keratin!
It that... normal?
omg, really? o,o
@@noemyemma9035 yes ur hair skin and nails r made of it
Karcher Cox yes i saw the intro and was screaming i used to do this to my shed hair and watch it get thinner as i scraped the layer of keratin away
yeah, dont do this @ home lol.
Have you reported your hair damage to the FDA? Everyone with DC damage should go to FDA website and fill out the form.
The more complaints to FDA, the more 'amo' the lawyers have in the lawsuit.
yep thats what i was saying a class action lawsuit def needs to be filed.
Curly hair is already such a struggle, I also have a scalp condition so everything is tougher. I’m so sorry this happened to you! I don’t even know what the hell to use anymore.
athena christine music i feel you girl, I feel like I can’t trust anyyy product anymore!
Jada you’re racist!!! Skin color does not define anyone! No matter the color of skin anyone can have curly hair!!!
@athena christine music bitch that's not curly it's wavy,which is a complete different texture than curly🤷🏾♀️First off black people can't be racist to whites Haha and your a dumb ass for thinking that your hair is more of an struggle than black women and girl go cry me a "white girl" tear river😢😜
@@jumarie80 you do know what "racist" means, right? Don't think just because youre Black that you have the right to look Down on other Skin colors. Besides, where did she even say that her curls are more difficult to take care of than Black peoples curls?
Jada Farris I never even said mine were any more difficult. And yes. Any color can be racist actually.
Make sure you look at why the products are being marked highly. Some of them are marked that high because they have fragrance.
Thank you!
Janice Disla When I downloaded the app and start looking through the ingredients of a couple products I purchased, I kept seeing red because of the fragrance. Fragrance is not at the top of my list as being terrible my list.
Absolutely, every product I looked up was red, i was like...so i can only use soap then? Lol yea I deleted the app right quick.
If you go on the Think Dirty app yes it says deva curl has fregrance which is fine but it ALSO says there is a formaldehyde releasing agent called imidazolidinyl urea/ diazolidinyl urea. Carcinogens. This triggers eczema, skin irritations and rashes.
@@dawson3885 ffrgrance is at the top of the list for a reason. it is bad. go check out dr drays videos
A benzonite clay mask would really help with getting rid of the buildup and totally reset your hair. So sorry you had to deal with this but thanks for sharing.
I think when you do that with the scissors, you're actually scraping off the cuticle of the hair. Cheap hair extensions are made by scraping/chemically removing the cuticle so that it doesn't matter which direction the hair goes (good hair extensions keep the cuticle and all the hair cuticle has to be facing the same way in order for it not to be frizzy and tangled)
Regardless, I totally believe that these products either weren't stored properly in distribution or that they do cause too much buildup and that's causing the issues. Good luck to you and thanks for sharing your story!
I’m starting to feel like I can’t even trust water anymore. What if they’ve changed the formula?!?!
Can we please just have a good clean curly hair product that is effective! Is that too much to ask.
Same! Why does it have to be so confusing and complicated!? 😭
Water can activate affect your hair depending on the minerals in it.
My hair also fell out just like yours by the handfuls and I thought my hormones might be off never thought it was devacurl. Got my hair cut short nearly pixie to get rid of dry dead hair. Only to use devacurl again and it’s dry and dead again and not curly anymore. Again. I’m mad. Thank you for your video
Trina so sorry that that happened to you! I hope it recovers soon!💛
Omg your hair was so voluminous.. 😭 I think you should cut it to shoulder length, grow it out and slowly cut it over time
Nicole x I was thinking of doing that, but my hair takes FOREVER to grow! 🥺
Yarely Galindo just go back to the basics! Make an Olive bath or coconut 🥥 help too
So you only used deva curl twice when you went to to get ur devacut?
My mouth dropped within the first few seconds. OMG your hair. This is disturbing but I can't stop watching these videos.
That scissor thing has been proven to just be cutting the actual hair. Not product build up.
ella elise what was the white stuff then?

This has been like when you’re dating a guy that so many people are giving you side eye about, but you ignore them because you LOVE him so much. And you ignore the fact that you have to beg him to make time for you, and he puts his phone down the minute you walk in the room, but you convince yourself that you’re just imaging things. Then you finally realize that it’s not just you and he’s always been a narcissistic, gaslighting asshole. And then when you try to talk to your “friends” about it, they have to really stop themselves from saying “I told you so” and are “supportive.” Yep, this has been nuts.
bruh what
CECE DevaCurl is gaslighting the shit out of people. And some people in the curly community couldn’t give two shits about what’s going on because they still use Devacurl and haven’t had any negative side effects. Or there are some people saying the products were too expensive and they dodged a bullet, which is really insensitive and is basically like saying we got what we deserved for spending more money on our hair care products.
I only used devacurl products. Mostly styling, about 10-15 times in all. But since I started the curly girl method about 6 months ago, my hair looks worse. It's frizzy when wet. About 2 weeks ago, I started using a shampoo bar. And I'm getting a few twirls back. Don't know what kind of products to use. , As my hair is still falling out :(
angel wings Same. Today I did my 3rd wash since stopping DC. I switched to AG Apple Cider Conditioner. So far, it’s working really well. But yeah, I’m still seeing a lot of hair. I’m not sure if it’s cause I only wash once a week, and it’s natural fall out.
No you're being sensitive by taking that as a personal insult...
I'm sorry you had to go through you went through. I stuck to the Shea Moisture only because the price of the Devacurl was out of my budget. I saw some more videos like this one and know about the lawsuits. First Devacurl said they would have their products independently tested (cheaper than recalling their products by far) and they are now having a 30% off final sale. There is so much going on with Devacurl and so many folks not using it anymore, I think I'm going to actually buy stock in products that I believe former Devacurl users will be using now. I hope the beauty industry takes a heavy lesson on this one.
caroljoywolf i feel the exact same way, it’s so sad to see companies care more about making money than the customers they claim to care about so much. Everything we are suffering through is extremely serious on different degrees and i hope we all get compensated for it!
shea moisture isnt good either😭
I watched the same video, downloaded The Dirty app, and was shocked at the products I had that claimed to be natural but aren't! I also just bought SheaMoisture! I wish you all the best and hope thi gs get better soon!😘
be careful of the new formula for the shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie-it has changed
Sarini Rangedera that’s so sad because I used to love that curl enhancing smoothie they should change it back to the original.
Sarini Rangedera Yep!
YES
@Kaede it's been much more drying for me
I've heard the products are just watered down.
Hey girl, I wouldn't freak cause the talk dirty app is really misleading. If a product has perfume/fragrance...which most do, they put them in the red zone!! I deleted it an hour after I downloaded it. Chemicals aren't bad for you, and natural isn't necessarily good. I used the DevaCurl line for 8 years, and loved it for 6. Two years ago something went wrong with the formula (the curl ninja said it was a storage issue causing them to be tainted) and I noticed I had an oily scalp, dandruff, dry ends, and it was so frustrating. So for the last two years I've been using a drugstore shampoo and DevaCurl conditioner with the Ultra Defining gel. My scalp was better but my curls were NON EXISTENT, but again like all of us we think oh it's my diet or I'm stressed or it's my pillow. And then all this controversy came out and I'm so shocked and hurt. Threw away the rest of my DevaCurl stuff, and it sucks cuz they used to work, they used to be amazing and now they're ruining women's lives. My advise is to try as many curl hair products as possible (which is what i have to do now cuz i'm literally lost, and also my stylist recommended a few) and start all over again, heal the scalp, see what works best for you. Hopefully your hair grows out and your scalp heals!
@xtina baaae Same here! Saw all the red 8's for DC in the app, and then clicked to see what was offensive. It indicated was only the fragrance (and the DC prods i've used have barely any noticeable fragrance.) Then I saw in a disclaimer in the app that the developer(s) of the app receive money for their evaluations. Immediately deleted it. Still, I was a long-time DC user and developed serious issues that are going away now that i've stopped. Definitely something changed in last year or so. However, I don't think it's plausible to still have DC build-up from only two uses done months or weeks ago. That's stretching credulity.
I’m not sure why you don’t see then that there are bad chemicals being put into our personal care products. It jacked up your hair and I doubt it was lavender oil or water. The app is good to inform you what’s in there. Get informed and you can decide if a high number is bad for you or not based on what you know.
I spent so much money on these organic products and my hair was just MEH. I get the most compliments and my hair feels the best with L’Oréal products lol so I don’t trust anyone anymore
Some people are saying that it's not devacurl and it's just people not washing their hair and following instructions but I don't think so I wash my hair as I should and I believe others do and suffer those symptoms. Their is Somthin in these products for sure
Honey it is definitely not “people not washing their hair” lol. I was my hair every other day ( you aren’t supposed to wash curly hair everyday because it dries it out) and am suffering. I have always washed my hair every other day, and I never had any issues until I used DevaCurl products! Plus, there are 30,000+ other people in the Facebook group in my description box that are also going through the same thing 🤧
You’re absolutely right, nothing to do with long-term not washing. I literally Flippin used this product for only a month and half. With the thinning, bald spots and massive damage...no joke....nearly half my hair is gone. it’s devastating. I started using early January 2020 and the horrifying aspect for me is the fact that DevaCurl has known about this for so long. they don’t give a shi🤬 that they’re turning people lives upside down. it’s really sad😔. I am so feelin such hurt for each and every one of us✨🙏💫
I don’t think scraping your hair with scissors is the best idea but if your probably gonna big chop then I guess it doesn’t matter
Also hask means hair mask
I don’t understand how two or three devacuts cause this much damage. You never bought any products to use at home, right?
Mrs. Sippi she commented and liked everyone’s but yours maybe you speaking the truth 🤔
look in the description. she states that she only has used the products twice.
Blueberry Emzie If she’s only used it twice. Then why are 100s of ppl coming out now about it now? The product came out years ago, if ppl used it 2x and had a problem then it’d be resolved by now.
Jean Edouard
Well, it’s thought that they only recently changed the formula or at least the suppliers, because after years of good reviews suddenly everyone’s hair started falling out,
Sparks Fly oooooh that is highly possible
I’ve been losing that much hair for decades but I’ve never used DevaCurl...
Same. But my hair is way thicker/ i have more hair than her. So msybe that balances its out. She kinda seems to not have the highest hair so loosing this much everyday could be troublesome.
There’s a lot of reasons why you shed so much hair :
Maybe you stress out a lot
Your diet
Not enough sleep
Not drinking enough water
Not enough moisture to the hair
Not getting your ends trimmed or dusted
Your age
Not being careful when you comb or brush your hair
etc.
Not saying it couldn’t be other hair products that you use but you can try taking other things into account
chibi :3 hi, can you help me too? I don’t have a lot of hair on my temples and my forehead looks huge. Do you have any suggestions/explanations? Thank you ☺️
Take care of your food intake
It could be hormones
"Natural" hair care has always made my hair feel weird, I don't use it. I use Biolage and it feels amazing.
The matrix biolage?
Sorry you going through this.
Shea moisture has been changing formulations as well and they can cause lots of build up due to the Shea Butter and coconut oil. I also realized some products it only has like a red number on think dirty because of not knowing what the fragrance is. I love kinky curly it has helped me after Deva
Products by bigger brands are going to be market to you on the current trend that money is flowing to. The power is in where the consumers are. I was only using DC’s Wave Maker product and girllll let me tell you, the bottom of my hair (where I applied the cream) would frizz like some of the photos I’ve seen in your video. Mind blown.
My heart is breaking for all of the women who are suffering because of this negligent, multi- million dollar company. I've been suffering from hair loss over the last two years (not from diva curl) so I understand first hand the devastatiion, frustration and defeat that you're all feeling. What makes it even worse is when people ridicule you for being emotional over something like hair. Or when even doctors brush aside your concerns instead of leading you too solutions.
While I'm not a victim of this company, I stand by and support all of you.
Vindi thank you so much, you are so kindddd 💛💛💛
Your hair still looks really pretty if that’s any consolation :( I’m sorry you and so many curlies are going through this.
Off topic, but what camera do you use? Super high quality.
Best of luck with your curls 💖
poppyexists thank you so much! It means a lot 💛 I use the canon rebel t7i 😌
DO NOT SCRAPE YOUR HAIR. You know how you file your nails and it makes white powder? Your nails and hair are very similar. That isn’t build up.
omg. I'm so sorry for what you've been through. That build up was just sad.
The think dirty app is not accurate, and labels a lot of stuff as bad, while it really isn't. Also, if you shampoo you cannot have build up from months ago!
You need to do your research. Even Think Dirty app is geared towards its own products. What works for 1 may not for another.
I use shea moisture products and so far and they have changed my hair completely . Look it up on the app . I’ve only seen good reviews and have had good results . my favorite is the Shea moisture enhancing smoothie
Inexpensive too I must say!
My hair fell out almost two years ago from a L’Occitane conditioner I’d used for years. There’s a shampoo from Vichy, a French pharmacy brand, that’s especially for people who are experiencing hair loss, I used that after it just happened and it helped. My hair was really straight and I lost about half of it, but what I got back is wavy, so I’m still not able to wear my hair loose until it’s grown out. It’s taking a while to get it fixed, but I’m so relieved to have hair again. I hope yours will start to grow again soon as well. If your scalp is still itchy, maybe a menthol shampoo would help. I’m not sure as I’m no doctor, but if the treatment has done something to the health of your scalp and there’s an imbalance that’s made it possible for the fungi we naturally have in our body to grow more than they should a menthol product could help out with that.
Sue 11 I am so sorry that that happened to you!! I am so glad that you are on your road to recovery, and I hope to be on mine soon! Thank you for the tips 💛
I honestly hope you can heal whatever has happened so you can get those amazing tresses back 💖 from a 3B girl
Silvia Menéndez thanks girly 💛
So sorry this happened to you. It also helps to prove it is happening to women, men (my son) and kids of all ages. I am 48 and I have had the same experience. I stopped using it after the Curl Nina’s first video. A year later it is slowly returning to health. Good luck with the next part of your journey. 💗
The few haircuts wouldn’t have caused all of that damage you’ve experienced, I don’t believe at least. I think excessive DevaCurl use would for sure, as it is and has for many. Before I buy any products for my 2c/3c hair - I always have to check the ingredients list (not just what it says on the front of the bottles!) you can look up if products are safe (or cg approved) on isitcg.com or curlsbot.com ! Shea Moisture has been my go-to for a year now ♥️ I just wish you found out earlier, girl!
I feel like every girl I talk to is having this issue....deva curl or not.
I think we are all experiencing hygral fatigue from not cleansing our hair properly. Just think of all the build up and no sulphate to remove them. It's like doing laundry with dirty water.
Before 7:18 min. Wait a minute... you washed/wet your hair in the shower everyday?... not supposed to do that, even if you don't use DC... That's going to really weaken the hair, encouraging them to break and fall ....
I used the low poo range for a month or so when I began leaving my hair natural and I hated it I could tell there was build up on my hair it never ever felt clean. I stopped using it because I hated how my hair felt and just switched back to a normal drug store shampoo/conditioners and my hair is completely healthy and my waves are soft and full. There's thing whole thing these days that natural is better with beauty products but it's so not the case, these manufactured ingredients serve a purpose in products like actually cleaning and conditioning and stabilising other ingredients. It's a shame so many people are having problems, I'm really glad I only used DC for a few weeks. I'[m sure your hair will recover soon enough :)
So... your hair got damaged without using the Devacurl products? I don't understand, honestly.
Dan I got a DevaCut twice ( a DevaCut consists of a haircut, and a wash where they use DevaCurl products to wash your hair) and that is why my hair is going through this 😕
I sure hope you can recover! When you’re using the THINK DIRTY app, I’ve heard that fragrance will bump the product into the “dirty” category. That’s because many people are highly sensitive to fragrance. If you’re not, maybe the product wouldn’t bother you. Shea Moisture can be VERY heavy especially for looser curl patterns. Check out Jessicurl, BounceCurl, Curls, Innersense, Inahsi...there are so many that are made from pure ingredients. I’ve only been using the DC conditioner and experiencing some of the same things. They used to be good but not anymore. I’m done with them!
I had a horrible scalp reaction to the maui shampoo and conditioner. My scalp was so red and irritated with dandruff everywhere. I literally had to use peppermint oil on my scalp to help with the irritation because I could feel it burning .
Gotcha. Totally understand and empathise in terms of hair loss and damage because of devacurl, but for Christ's sake... Why are you scraping scissors along your hair shaft? Of course it's going to flake. It's essentially buffing away layers of hair the same way you buff your nails. It proves nothing.
OMG!!!! I used to get those red things along my scalp, near my temple, where I think to almost no hair, I thought my hairline was receding and I didn't know what to do. Every time I would wash and style my hair, even if I used a different shampoo and just the DevaCurl conditioner and a styler, it would look like that, all the way towards the back of my ear.
Get that tested to see what is that exactly!? I’m soo sorry you had to go through this. They need to pay for this. DevaCurl was sold to 2 different company’s since they began, somewhere down the selling and new ownership the formula was changed. I’m sorry love
Jyvhyshkarr thank you so much for your kid words 💛
Shea moisture ruined my hair? Not all of their products are clean, a lot of them have silicones..
Enchantress_of_Oshun I only like silicones because of their fabulous heat protection. Otherwise, in shampoo and conditioner, they shouldn’t be involved. Only in serums for heat protection.
Can you please elaborate on how it ruined your hair? I use Shea moisture but I’m very curious ❣️❣️❣️❣️
Alexa I notice my hair pattern changed, not all of their products ruin your hair I think their first line is safe but the other lines ruined my hair, I would get build up and itchy scalp. My curls hasn’t looked the same. I was using them for years then I went to see a deva cut specialist and she said she doesn’t recommend them for my hair. I’ve been using Jessicurl and innersense which is as clean as it gets! I also make homemade masks and cleansers.
Not all the Shea moisture are clean. Found some with Phoenixyethanol.
Look at Innersense products on the Think Dirty app. Also, have you tried a chelating clarifying shampoo like Malibu C Undo Goo?
Omg, I’m so sorry what happened to your hair! But I’m glad you were able to figure out the cause and stop using those products. On another note, I love your necklace! Where did you get it from? ❤️❤️
Shampoo isn’t the enemy. I learned that. You have to clean your hair and anything but soap on your head isn’t a good solution. Your scalp is alive. You have to clean it or else those hairs will fall right out and your poor scalp, just injured. Even cowashes can’t replace a shampoo.
Deva cuts do not ruin your hair, the products that your stylest uses on your hair is what ruins it. Go and get a deva curl cut, and then explain to the stylest that you do not want deva curl products used in your hair. There are many stylests out there that are curly hair cut certified, but they run their own salon so they have many additional products, not just devacurl, which is what you would be limited to if you went a devacurl salon. I had a deva curl hair cut and my stylest did not use deva curl products in my hair and it was the best thing that happened to my hair.
Also, SOME Shea moisture products are rated well in the ThinkDirty app, NOT all of them, so make sure you are paying attention to that. If you do decide to use Shea Moisture in your hair, good for you it's a great brand I love it, but you need to start clarifying your hair more reguraly than you used to, if you did at all. Shea Moisture products have heavy oils and butters in them like coconut oil and Shea butter. Those do not wash out with your typical shampoo and they build up very quickly. It won't be long before your curls will be heavy, greasy, flat and frizzy and you will be frusturated all over again.
I never had deva curl products used in my hair ever, but I had considered buying them for a long time. I never did because they were super expensive. I am so sorry to all you curly girls out there who are experiencing this kind of pain.
Some products are flagged only for Fragrance. There are some really great brands that have an 8 all because of Fragrance. If you click and read, everything else is green but would be flagged for fragrance. You can't really run away from all fragrance when what said products are made out of has their own natural fragrance. DC never felt right in my hair, and I had a stylist pushing it at me. She claimed my hair was dry from build-up, and whatever products I was using outside of DC was causing it to be dry and stiff. Mind you, while she said this looking through my hair, I had DC in my hair, and I found that laughable. I told her, DC was in my hair, and she looked like she didn't believe me. I told her I wouldn't be buying it anymore, while she was trying to push me to buy their new leave-in and curl cream that's meant to "stretch" your hair. I told her no. I had her wash my hair and do a stand-alone treatment of Olaplex, after doing a trim and had her put in a deep conditioner in and went home with my hair still wet with said conditioner in it. When I got home, I rinsed my hair and styled my hair with products that worked and felt so much better for my hair than DC. I thanked god til this day, that I didn't constantly use DC, and DC alone. That I had them pushed back, and barely reached for them. At some point, I just threw them out, and this was way before all of these claims started surfacing. I also never went back to that stylist and this is a stylist I started going to for a few months. I am now color-treated, and my hair is so healthy, with a new stylist and they do not use DC. Thank god. She tells me every time, she can't believe how strong my hair is even with it being color-treated. I'm so thankful that I have stubborn hair that doesn't take to everything so easily. Try doing some Olaplex treatments, it isn't only for us color girls.
Carmen Ice yea my stylists were trying to really push it on me too now that I think about it, thank you for the info, ill look into the olaplex! 💛
Carmen what else are you using? I'm definitely trying your suggestion, my hair is all screwed up and I am having a hard time finding something that works 😩
Carmen Ice If you go on the Think Dirty app yes it says deva curl has fregrance which is fine but it ALSO says there is a formaldehyde releasing agent called imidazolidinyl urea/ diazolidinyl urea. Carcinogens. This triggers eczema, skin irritations and rashes.
@@aeziajardin7154 I'm talking about other products on Think dirty. There is a lot of items flagged just for fragrance alone.
@@freyamariano106 My main two favorite lines are She Moisture and Camille Rose. They work so well in my hair. Now that I am color-treated, I wash my hair 2x a week. The middle day, however, I am more like rinsing my hair and doing a little 5 -minute deep conditioning. I learned that its best to try and deep condition 2x a week if possible even while having virgin hair. On my real wash day, I shampoo and do deep treatments like Olaplex, Fanola, and Briogeo don't despair, repair and depending on the day of the month, I will do a real protein treatment such as Aphogee 2 step strengthening kit. Anything with bond rebuilding, moisture, and strengthing is what I go for. I don't want my strands to weaken from coloring, so I make sure I prep it at all times for the stress. Even before my hair was colored, this had always been my routine, the only thing I added, was an extra day of hair "washing" though it more like me rinsing rather than shampooing on that in-between day. I think that is the very reason my hair is so strong and fights off damaging situations, lol. Just listen to your hair. My hair loves oils after its already dry. Some people can add oils to their hair while it's wet, but that causes frizz for me. It's all about listening, and figuring out what your hair loves.
I'm sorry you went through that it really sucks I know. I'm currently using Innersense. I use to use Deva Curl as well and I kept complaining to my Deva Cut stylist about it making my scalp itch and she said I maybe getting fake product from Ulta. My scalp was itching like crazy and she said it was from product build up and switched me over to innersense. She said to not use the Decadence line and there was no reason your shampoo should not lather. She also said it takes 4 to 6 months to get rid of build up. Make sure you look at the think dirty app on Shae Moisture as well they are not all clean. The particular line you have is but other lines within the Shae Moisture brand are not. Of course I looked at the think dirty app for innersense since they where the ones to introduce me to Deva Curl after all.
Also what sucks is that I just bought the supercream and foam like 2 weeks before I found this all out. I can't even return it because I don't remember where I got it or where the receipt is. My man use to warm me about buying all these things and he was right. I'm so sorry for all of us and I pray that we can all recover our curls soon.
I’m so sorry for what happened to your hair. I don’t have curly hair and have never used Devacurl but last year July I decided to go to a random hair salon (regret it it big time) got my hair re layered and got highlights and tone. Since then I have lost almost all my hair and I know it’s due to that salon. I used to have very long thick straight hair and now I hardly have any hair left on my head. I regret not doing anything to sue the salon and now I will never get back the hair that I had
I also got a Deva curl cut it was the worst mistake I ever made
Your hair looks great! How did your heal the damage?
Here is a tip. Wash your hair with a sulfate shampoo and follow it up with a deep conditioner using heat. Ladies, you have to wash that stuff out of your hair using a cleansing shampoo like a Suave, etc. at least once month. You can't co-wash forever. Who told you this?
My hair stylist told me she noticed an ingredient shared with body hair removal creams. When her students asked about this at their advanced Deva training, they (basically) refused to reply.
Um thats not build up! You are just scraping off the hairs cuticle!
I totally believe everything you've said about devacurl but you are giving this app way too much credit
Hi Yarely, what products did you use at home? What is your hairroutine? Thanks for sharing!
The color might be what damaged your hair and why you are experiencing hair loss.
The same thing happened to me but not by using devacurl it was polish and american products sold in here in egypt . And i suffered alot and i am still suffering from it. Selling the same No paraben,no sulfate,no silicon. I stopped for more than 5 months and i still suffer but thanks to god not the same any more, it is less painful.
I think it is just companies selling "Natural" products are all lies ....
OMG YARELY 😭😭 I’m so sorry for your hair !!! Also thank you for the app I’m bouts to download it. UGHHH I hope your hair get healthy and I hope it grows back ! YESS Girl I use Shea moisture a lot. It’s one of my favorite products
Thank you girl, I pray it goes back to normal soon! 🥺 and no problem, I’m glad you found out about it so you can find products that are good and leave products that are not! 💛💛I’m currently using shea moisture too, and it’s not too bad!
That is so crazy! We learned to check ingredients but somehow these brands still duped us. Maui seems to have great ingredients, I can't believe that it's actually a con. I've been using it for a while and I figured since I moved to Mexico and the water is different that could be why my hair doesn't act the same. But maybe it's the product? Gosh I'm just so mind blown by all of this. I'm definitely downloading that app and buying new products!
Sorry for the problems you’re having with your beautiful hair. Seems like a combination of forces working against you. Maybe stop coloring your hair for a few months, even the most moisturizing brand can cause problems. Most curly girl
Methods say avoid oils, especially if your hair is already dry, the oil seals out the moisture and perpetuates dryness and flaking. Your system could be vulnerable from shingles, neck, chest and scalp are typical areas for flare ups. Try to manipulate as little as possible as well as products. Most import, find a dermatologist who specializes in hair and scalp. Best wishes.
We need to all wash our mursty scalps with shampoo. Cream don't clean it moisturizes and softens
Going down a CZcams hole of these videos and you saying just putting your fingers through your hair in the shower and pulling chunks out I had that. Again, so glad the scandal started shortly after I started my journey and I immediately stopped using them. So glad I only used the products for a little under a year. Like maybe 7/8 months. My hair is getting back to its full thick state again
Thank you for sharing your story. I'm in complete agreement that people should stop using DevaCurl. I recently downloaded the Think Dirty app. I think it can be a good tool but I have questions about its accuracy. For example, Curlsmith is a very clean brand but it scores an 8 in the Think Dirty app (on a scale of 0-10, with 10 meaning highly hazardous or contains very dirty ingredients). The majority of ingredients in Curlsmith score between 0-3 but fragrance scores an 8. So that now means the entire product is an 8 because of one potentially bad ingredient out of a vast field of clean ones?! That seems weird to me. But I guess the point is to give people some further direction on ingredients they may want to steer away from.
HEYYY NOTICE THIS!! NOTICE THIS!!! You need to go watch “manes by mell” video about the think dirty app and the deva curl video. WATCH IT!! Please!!! Do not throw all of your products away!!!! They’re okay!!! Think Dirty hasn’t been updated I’m years, they’re are websites you can look at this. Go watch her videos please!! She’s THE hair god.
stop believing everything that influencers promote on social media. if you wanna buy and try a product go to a dermatologist or go on the internet and search for the ingredients that the product has and then see if the product is good for you. hope your hair comes back to life cause its beautiful
That is exact what my shower has looked like since I began this entire "curly girl" journey. It also started for me with a deva cut. But I got the styling products from the salon and when they ran out I began trying all kinds of other curly products and since then my hair has thinned, my curls lost it's normal texture and it has been falling out like crazy since 2013. I have regretted starting this journey for so long. I used to be able to go 5 days with a wash & go and now the next day my hair looks crappy. Thin, frizzier than ever, my curls are more like waves. I've spend thousand too because I was on the hunt for the next best thing. I can't remember the last time I had an amazing wash & go that lasted more than 1 day in years.
Tash Velez i feel you to the core bbygirl, before I started the “curly girl method”, my hair was beautiful and i thought transitioning would only make my curls even BETTER, but that wasn’t the case.. i think we have just been brainwashed into thinking that these products are whats best for us ( I also didn’t have processed hair, my hair was a Virgin when i started the CGM)... my family uses regular shampoos and they don’t have any issues w their hair
@@yarelygalindo7623 U and I pretty much have the same story. I'm so sorry this happened to u. My friends use to say my hair looked like a lions mane and now I look like a wet pollito. Well good luck at getting your beautiful hair back. Btw, I think you are so pretty. Good luck girl.
I’m actually allergic to a lot of the those vegan all natural hair products. I started getting an itchy scalp from the Maui moisture shampoos. So, i just used a really good clarifying shampoo (unfortunately it had sulfate in it) and my scalp does not itch anymore. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do 😒
Ppl gotta read the label. Starting from An early age with products they put on there skin, hair, ect.
Your hair actually looks healthy.
Honestly the 8 are mostly because of fragrance. If you click on the products, you will see that EVERY ingredient is 0-3 but the fragrance is an 8
How can u tell if its build up or keratin short of testing it? Dont hairdressers do this to sell u a detox product/wash and expesnsive "clean products" like innersense?
I don't get it...did you use or did you not use the products outside of the deva cuts? I think you can't have it from using the products at the salon once for it to last for a couple of months. Like anything can happen of course, but just to be sure, check your thyroid hormones and all the other. Just in case.
Theres a professional clarifying treatment you can get for your scalp and hair at a dermatologist. Also some people are reporting the damage is permanent so attack this fast. Sending you love 🥰
The only way to remove the product is to manually have it scraped off for some.
Our mothers used random shampoo from supermarkets and had thick healthy hair this new crap is disgusting and people hair is getting thinner everyday
Girl I just can’t even believe this! I literally I’m just finding out about this. I used the product for less than a month and a half I’m thinking maybe four or five times and I’ve already had to cut off 7 inches! I had as much hair as you if not more. have bald spots. I’ve known about it since night before last but after I watched your video I called them and went So fu!$ing Richter on the sales person. I couldn’t believe I had that much anger in me about this. Been a wreck for a day and a half. it’s not only me it’s everyone that’s been affected and the fact that they will not take accountability. it’s flipping devastating! Well I guess I’m having my Flippin meltdown on at all. it’s been devastating the last two months thinking my health had gone to sh%t and losing my hair but knowing this has just given it a whole new spin! Praying for all of us that further health issues are NOT in store🙏 I haven’t used it in almost a week and a half and my scalp is on fire right now. And oh ya, you’re still crazy beautiful...I think we’re both blessed that we have tons of hair to begin with and that’s because your hair still looks way better than the majority! I hope you know that, and believe me it pisses me off when people tell me “ you’re still beautiful anyways”....I understand what you’re going through in every way but straight up, you’re a beautiful girl~•🌺Sending you lots of love and light and thank you for the video✨🌸💫
What is the deva cut suppose to do for your curls? I used a sample of deva curl from my sephora play box. It was the gel. And it made my hair very frizzy. So i was fortunate not to get into the hype because of how pricey the products are. Im so sorry you are goi g through this.
Jenny Garcia supposedly they are the best thing that can happen to your curls, if you use them, “your curls will be the healthiest that they’ve ever been and they will be rejuvenated” and other things like that, but unfortunately the ingredients that they use are *apparently* harmful. I’m glad you did not buy the products!!! 💛💛
@@yarelygalindo7623 i have faith your hair will recover! I use shea moisture and it is good!
So you only used deva curl twice? When you got your haircuts? 😢I used it 3 times. I had a few samples of deva curl products. I had symptoms right away. The weird build up and my hair felt like that for weeks after I used it. It was a weird dry, waxy texture that I couldn’t get ride of. I had little pimple- y blisters on my scalp. It was itchy. And I had breakage. I thought it was just an allergy I had. When I hard about this I realizes it was the products. Most videos I see, the women use the products all the time. You’re the only one I’ve seen who didn’t use it regularly like me. I thought the breakage and weird texture was something else I was doing or not doing. This just blows my mind.my experience is very similar
OMG! This has been me these past weeks, I been so scared wondering what's happening to me, that's how much hair I been losing a day with knots on the bottom half of my hair. I'm in shock! What can we do to get our hair back😭😭 I've used Diva products..
Basically all of you guys were scammed and didn’t bother to read the Ingredients in back of the bottle. Don’t ever fall for these companies without researching what is in it. So sorry that happened to so many people. I’m so glad I never put that crap in my hair.
To play devil's advocate, you would not still have build up from deva curl if you have been using other products. Build up occurs when you use leave in or styling products--regardless of the brand. Clarifying/washing is the only way to remove that build up and not using any leave in product.
I am now trying the “SheaMoisture” brand.....
Girl do ACV rinse !! Its been helping me with my DC damage i have i think permanent damage at the crown of my head i dont even like doing my hair i have type 3b 3c and 4a towards the back and my crown looks like 2c 😞😞😞😤 Shea moisture and Maui is helping my hair with ACV rinses
Katt Moon i tried doing ACV, but I can’t stand the smelll 😭😭 It makes my hair super greasy too, it didn’t work :(
OMG I am so sorry, this is really bad, what products are you using now??
I am having the same issue, I cut my hair, and now is just not growing.
😥😥😥😥
Do you use a clarifying shamppoo for apple vinegar rinse...this is sooo important. You havve product buildup.
Y’all can’t call this fake bc she made a video before any of this blew up about her being bad a while back. I am so sorry that you’re hair had to go through this 😢❤️
Kaitlyn Hanks thanks bby, I appreciate you 💛
Yarely Galindo I send all the love ❤️
Does suave clariffying shampoo strip the build up off of it and then doing a conditioning treatment like not ur mother curl talk or Shea butter ?
No product can be permanently binded with hair, beside henna. Even all the proteins are bidned with hair only temporary. So there is no possibility your hair is falling out because of bulidup from two diva cuts.
All of people who used only 3-4 products of diva curls for years should realy find out about proteins - emoliets - humectants balance.
And for those who got scalp damage I am really sorry and hope that all of you will get your explanation and justice.
Same thing happened to me but I was using their products. I stopped using the products in January and my hair is still falling out. It’s so thin. I’m so sad and it makes me feel really insecure.
Eileen Grier I only used their products twice, last time I used them was in December & my hair is still falling out, thin, and barely any curls :( so sorry that that happened to you, hope you recover soon ❤️
Yarely Galindo I pray the same for you. I pray we all get better.
I just got the Naughty curl defining shampoo. It is not on the app so if anyone know about it please let me know.
You didn’t even use the products regularly. This is crazy! I hope your hair recovers soon.
You should try an Apple Cider Vinegar wash to strip the crap off your hair. Also have a look at AG Hair as it has apple cider vinegar in it. Good Luck hun x
Try a aphogee treatment or Aztec healing clay you need to detox your body from the products I recommend like everyone else to see a dermatologist to work on a plan to get the stuff completely off your hair
Put some dawn dish soap in your shampoo. Then wash your hair. Dawn is gentle and will take it off. Then deep condition your hair.
