- Hi everyone,
Today I am sharing my thoughts and opinions on the Devacurl scandal that has been going around the curl hair community. I hope this helps anyone who is confused by the changes in their hair caused by this company. Please watch the videos of the great ladies I mentioned.

What are you using now for styling? I am trying out AG hair care and Innersense and I will make a video soon with my results.
Where did you get your glasses? I can’t find them online retail, but here is someone selling the same ones poshmark.com/listing/Prada-65...

Hi, I added some answers to the top questions in the description box! Thank you for watching my heart is so full from the kindness
Sydney Dragon I love your glasses where did you get them?
Elba Lizarraga or what brand/name of glasses are they? I have the same question ❤️

I use deva curl they 100% cause buildup and I use a clarifying shampoo once a month and have no issues. Also if you use the wrong products from deva curl you will have a protein overload. Protein overload will cause dry hair. They have products with no protein. When I started using deva curl my hair stoped falling out. I think their products are amazing but the buildup needs to be removed.
Dang the algorithm is straight up coming for deva curls 😂 anyone here from ayeshas video
HAH yep!!
me too lol
I came from Stephanie mero.
Yes!
omg yes!!
When your hair is stick straight naturally but you’re still watching all the “deva curl ruined my hair” videos
Megan Amber same
Yep.
I literally had this thought earlier 😂😂
Lol
Same
I’ve talked to my husband who works for one of the largest beauty manufacturer company of the world. He thinks that devacurl must’ve changed their formula within the last few years with cheaper ingredients. Some larger companies do this to make even more profit. Devacurl will not come out and talk about this because that will be millions of dollars gone in profit. The ingredients they’re using must be the issue. Obviously the formula was good at one point, but seems like they got greedy and wanted more profit. What will most likely happen is word of mouth will make them go under. The more people talk about it the better, this SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. Beauty product should not be doing this to anyone. Please do not use these products if anyone out there is!
mekaykay Once Lorraine Massey left, the product quality went down drastically. :(
@@alyariel9713 yea I keep seeing that once the ownership changed the problems seemed to have started. So unfortunate because many people go to devacurl thinking "this is the one line for my hair". Again I'm sure once upon a time it was a great product line. Unfortunately some brands, or I should say brand owners... get greedy and are just looking at that $$$ instead of the integrity of their product and safety for consumers. I myself just started embracing the CG movement 2 months ago and almost bought Devacurl products... glad I never did. I'm thankful for people spreading awareness to protect others, super important and I hope people continue.
mekaykay I completely agree.💯💯 Seeing companies lose their integrity is really disappointing. Kinda glad I was too broke to buy expensive Devacurl products xD Shea moisture is good enough for me! Take care of yourself!
@@alyariel9713 see I didn't want to fork out the money on devacurl either, and I can get it cheaper at Cosmoprof... and still didn't buy it lol. Shea moisture is a line I haven't fully checked out yet. So far I've been using As I Am cowash, Curls Blueberry Bliss, and Kinky Curly Custard. I plan on picking up and trying AG's more natural line and seeing how that goes. At least with AG's natural line it's 98% plant derived and gluten free. Some companies just have the consumer in mind, and some do not. I think Devacurl did at one point but the dollar sign got in the way with a new owner. I will continue to repost this message in hopes people will listen. My husband was like, yea people should not be touching this stuff, and the company he works for is massive. He understands ingredients and what they do and something is not right with Devacurl's products.
There's a class action suit against them for hair loss/damage. I'm sure that will tank them before public opinion does.
A little unrelated but I love how you're just filming in your pjs. It's like a sister sitting down to advise us. Anyway, I'm really sorry for the damage these products have caused :/
OutofOrbit ASMR I genuinely didn’t even realize 😂
i almost didn’t notice til i read this comment lmfao
The cutest damn pyjamas as well
The pjs were literally the first thing I noticed and it made me like the video and subscribe cus I felt like we were at a sleepover and she was spilling the tea. ♥️ it.
Omg i didnt realize! So cute
There is a current class action lawsuit and investigation. U should submit a claim!
Oh come on...that is for people that have had major hair loss etc. Frizzy, itchy hair and jumping on a bandwagon to get monetary compensation smh
This is really random but I had to say it: you have one of the *rarest* gene combinations in the world! Red hair and blue eyes!!! Wishing you the best in your curly journey from here forward! 💖
jzmnhrrs thank you so much my heart is so full 🥰
Arent they contacts..pics she showed when she was younger her eyes are brown
gootsy Collins no they’re natural, the lighting was probably bad in those pictures of her when she was younger.
jzmnhrrs the rarest would actually be red hair and green eyes, but yeah pretty close
stop it
Although green eyes are the rarest
red/orange hair and blue eyes is actually the rarest combination
This devacurl brand is getting draaaagggggeeeddd. I don't know what number video this is that I've seen centering hair damage and devacurl. Shame.
I love the product. I've used it for 7 years and never found anything that has worked as well. I buy 3-4 times per year, 32 oz containers of No-Poo and conditioner. I have switched between the Original and Decadence line a little bit, but never had any issues... I find the mere thought of it straightening my curls hilarious. I often wish my curls would relax some. I think people are trying to make money on clicks.
Herb and Heirloom Gardening well they are looking for hair ambassadors now sooo if you’re an influencer you might be interested
Let's just hope they take note or their business is going to go down the swanny
@@heathergreen5519 Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if some of these people were doing it for clout. What people won't do for attention these days lol But at the same time you see the damage some of these women have and it's absolutely shocking. I guess it comes down to different strokes being for different folks. What works for me might not work for you and vice versa. It's a shame they ended up in the pool of those Deva Curl products didn't work for, and consider yourself blessed that you weren't affected negatively. It's definitely something we can all learn from though. Problem is these days people like buying into hypes. Someone uses a product, it works amazingly on THEIR hair and now I want to use it on mine. It damages my hair suddenly the company is a scam lol
@@heathergreen5519 There's an entire facebook group of women whose hair has been ruined with Deva Curl products. I doubt those women are doing it for clicks.
I'm seeing many people complain about devacurl. They've clearly have changed their formula, probably to save money thinking they would make more money. It's annoying when companies ruin a good thing because of greed!
More like DevilCurl 😂😂😂
👏
haHAAAA
DEVAstating
DevaCurse
My momma said diva curl is of the devil.
Wow
Everyone is calling devacurl out
Loyd Putnam sucks to watch all these bc you think of all the symptoms you have been having and it sucks to know it’s the same. I stopped taking pictures too bc all my friends knew about my crazy hair routines and how strict I was. And it went from looking amazing to looking like crap and you are trying to figure out what’s wrong with it
@@karlaluna01 same here! I haven't taken a photo of myself in months really, I felt so embarressed about the curl quality. I'm losing hair in chunks, psoriasis flare ups, it's a mess. I didn't want to believe it was the products and then finally watched a video and now I'm in shock. We were all duped.
My hair still curls but my scalp started getting really “scabby” and it never used to do that. I’m sorry this is happening to you.
This happened to me as well
I have psoriasis and it made it so so so much worse
@@veronicavatter6436 Me too, the foam and light hold gel made my psoriasis spots burn and bleed so badly. Fortunately flax seed gel works for me (and is way cheaper) but I've saved my DC products in hopes that there is a class action lawsuit/recall.
This happened to me too, along with itchy scalp.
@@squish1267 I had to go to the dermatologist and get a prescription shampoo.
I’m so glad that you documented your curly journey with photos and with all the detailed information. I hope you find something better for your hair this year. I think your hair in this video looks beautiful too! 💙
She is so much more organized than me 😂. I'm super jealous.
If that's you in your picture then your hair looks FABULOUS.
Holy crap! I've been using the Deva Curl B'Leave In and Styling Cream for nearly 2 years now and have been struggling with an itchy scalp, dry hair, and having to wash my hair frequently and I'd been formulating explanations for everything. I never even considered that it was the Deva Curl products doing this to my hair ! Im actually so shocked right now at how much stuff is clicking into place. Idk what I'm gonna use now but I better figure it out cause no more Deva Curl.
Dillon Michaels you should try the not your mother’s curl talk
Dillon Michaels used it twice, started itching right away. Tossed it
Try SheaMoisture products
Same with me!!
Cantu is really good.
Okay, I know it’s not the moment BUTTTTT, can we take a moment to appreciate her eyes? SHE IS SO PRETTY! ❤️🥰
This just keeps confirming that’s it’s all marketing. Stop wasting your money. All these people have amazing hair initially and naturally.
Rah Bel I used it for a little under a year. It worked great until about month 7. Month 8 I started itching like crazy. My hair started to look like I fried it. I started noticing really bad thinning. I ended up having to cut 11” off. Talk about a chop. I quit using their product a little over a month ago and I’m still itchy and my curls need to be restyled every day which is stupid because I could regularly go 4 days with amazing curls and I still have to wash a lot more.
YESSS! I remember when I was becoming obsessed with the idea of "quick and easy" perfection makers..Like skin products, hair products, exercise equipment etc and my dad warned me to be careful and said when a skin/makeup company is shilling their product, the models they use have been explicitly chosen because they already HAD those attributes the company is claiming their product will give to you.
It opened my eyes and made me realize how marketing is a scam built on exploiting our existing insecurities and perpetuating them by using models who have something naturally that we could never have.
You have to use product with curly hair and most the time your hair will get use to a product and stop working. Her hair isn’t even that curly 🤷♀️
ss I’ve been using the same products well TGIN for years and my hair never “stopped working” I guess everyone is different lmao
Kyesha Carter your body is the same way with medication which is why they tell you you can’t take it too much but everyone is different you are right
Me: had straighter than straight hair
CZcams recommendations: devacurl bad
Your hair is absolutely beautiful btw💕
Ikr???!!!
I use SheaMoisture, this is the best for my curly hair. Would 100% recommend!
Or Aveda
I've been switching my products to shea moisture, and my hair has been falling out less and less, especially once I started using their products with manuka honey.
I use to use them and I swore by them until I went vegan. And that silk protein and some of those honey ingredients etc are just a no go now. It's sad, cause now I've been on a journey of discovery all over again!
RainbowdashSailormoon Morales Mine too, I thought I was the only one!
So Far Gone some Aveda products have sulfates/silicones in them and they aren’t curly girl friendly if you’re following the curly girl method, those ingredients aren’t allowed
Ok but are we not gonna talk ab how pretty she is!🥺
I know- she's stunning! Those baby blues with those red curls- wowza! But yet in her pjs and telling her story, so down to earth. You just know she is the bestest friend her friends could ever wish for.
Reminds me of Wen. Wen ruined so many peoples' hair
I'm very sorry. My hair is straight but ive been following the devs curl situation. It will grow back better than before. I'm so sorry. Shannon from louisiana.
Shannon Mcclary-Burton thank you!
I bought 90$ worth of deva curl products and after using it once i noticed in the shower my hair falling out more than usual. I shrugged it off and kept using it. Then my scalp became really itchy and my hair became really dry. Then I started coming across videos with people having the same issues and immediately returned all of the products. Wish I would’ve come across these videos sooner! My hair/scalp is still recovering.
I used diva products maybe a year and a half ago... And after like 2-3 weeks my scalp was non stop itching, like I scratched all day everyday and I realized it was the diva curl. In the shower I started to notice like globbs of hair falling out and my hair started to look thinner. I didn't want to believe it was their product and I didn't see anything online about it at the time.. but my gut feeling was that it must be the product. So I immediately returned alll my products. After I stopped using it, my scalp was a million times better and I no longer lost a ton of hair in the shower.
I'm so glad I just stopped using them. Finished my first bottle ever and noticed my hair starting to fall out and losing all my definition. Dryness & frizz. Ugh! So glad I stopped using it!
The only product I was using is the deva curl cream and the itchiness it was horrible. I've never experienced that and thought no way it can be the cream. But oh, yes, it was!
The moment I dtopped using it, my scalp was feeling much better. Still recovering, which makes me really mad :(
Well, this week, I learned that I am not going insane and that my products are ruining my hair. I am a hairdresser who stopped recommending deva curl because I felt so embarrassed about the way my hair looked while using it but still was somehow blaming myself! I loved the product at first but in the last year it was like the company replace the products with like Dollar store shampoo. One of my products went from being the best type of detangler I’ve ever used to turning my hair into a giant knot every time I put it in my hair.
I haven’t used diva curl since 2013. Their products never really worked for my hair anyway but my goodness, they are getting DRAGGED
Rightfully so. It is beyond shameful that they have done this to so many people and refuse to acknowledge it. Damn just admit you wrong and man up
Randomly, you have the most beautiful eyes and teeth. ☺️
Amberger Helper thank you so much!!
Contacts..no?
@@gootsycollins3046 just cause she's got blue eyes doesn't mean she's wearing contacts 🤣
@@gootsycollins3046 smh. Bitch, no!
@@lucywallis8259 thank you.
I don’t use deva curl. Just fell down a suggestion hole and found your video, but this is sad. But you look absolutely beautiful. That pink with your hair and glasses 😍😍
You are the second person I watched today saying these things about Diva Curl. I bought the travel size products because my daughter told me that my results would be different because I’m African American. I only used the products...maybe twice(?), and I must say that I DID NOT like the results. My hair can get frizzy anyway, and the times I used it it didn’t change anything.
Yes, they are expensive items, but like everyone else I thought having to pay that much for a product, I would get the same results as those girls I saw on Instagram. I live in Texas and I know about the “winter” we had/have and it isn’t contributing to the non-curling effect I got with this product.
I’m glad to see that I wasn’t the only one.
Red hair and blue eyes 😍 Youre so beautiful!
Me watching this video pretending I don’t have pin straight hair
🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Bahahhahahaa
You're such a calm, cool and collected speaker! Beautiful, too. :) Thanks for sharing your stories ad experiences.
For everyone talking ab the think dirty app & how the products shes using now arent good u guys are wrong. Think dirty isnt too accurate and they base a lot of its “impurities” on whether its an allergen or not to some.
Big Butts only right! I just looked into the app and noticed products that had add fragrance automatically get put in red if the rest of the ingredients are “clean.” I know a lot of people have issues with fragrance but it bothers me that one “bad” ingredient makes it a “bad” product.
They put glycolic acid as red in a glycolic acid toner. Bit counterintuitive
I started my curly hair journey when i was 13 and up until last year i never had itchy scalp and oily hair and the only thing i changed in my routine was using DevaCurl I went to a specialist curly hair dresser and she told me to stop using DevaCurl products I've been free of DevaCurl for 7 months and now I wish i never started using DevaCurl
My gals be aware DevaCurl is not a good brand
Based on what happened to everyone’s hair it sounds like there’s a chemical similar to what’s found in relaxers in one of those products. There is something that’s stripping the hair and irritating the scalp. Let’s hope an outside entity figures it out.
Probably an alkaline substance which forces the cuticle open
I can relate so much to the itchiness, dryness, frizz and my hair looking wavy. I was totally blinded by their marketing. Thank you for speaking up 💕 you’re gorgeous.
Thank you so much for coming out with this. I have sever damage from these products buns are like the only things I can do today is the first day that I have had a decent hair day. I with deva curl would just come out and say anything. Thanks so much ♥️➿〰️➰
I'm so envious of your hair! My curls are not cute and my hair is fine and not as thick as it should be. Your hair is GOALS 😍
I never heard of devacurl until this whole debacle.
You must not be in the natural hair community. The gurus have been shoving those products in our faces for years. And diva cuts.
@@DANNYTHEFROG123 lol no im not. I am sorry to the people who lost their hair because of this product. It's a really shitty situation.
Danyelle Jones define natural hair community🤔I thought that term was coined by black women who transitioned from chemically relaxing to cutting their straight hair and no longer using chemicals. Talk about birth of a nation😩
@@CherokeeMoor Some of them dye their hair. Natural hair means you dont relax.
Danyelle Jones I know what natural hair mean. I’ve been apart of the natural hair community for well over 10 years. I can’t name nan one law that bans curly hair. But I can name a ton that ban kinky hair. Which was the catalyst to the beginning of the natural hair movement
You’re so beautiful!!!! I’m so sorry this happened to you but thank goodness it wasn’t any worse!
the same thing happened to me! i feel like i’ve lost half of my hair
okjewel oh no i’m so sorry!!
I want to give you a thumbs down for the sadness of your hair loss! The same thing happened to me. Im in repair mode. I don’t feel pretty etc. I wish I would’ve known to begin with. I never would’ve bought the product.
☹️
Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm so glad I've come across all these videos of curly girls talking what I've been going through with my hair! When I started the CG method in Sept 2019 (also cut all my hair off), I used Loreal Ever Curl as my shampoo/conditioner and DevaCurl light defining gel as my styler. I immediately noticed my hair was becoming extremely dry and frizzy and I was losing a ton of hair. I only used the Ever Curl for two weeks and finally looked up the ingredients and noticed it contained drying alcohols so I attributed the hair loss/damage to that. I was also using the DevaCurl light defining gel that I had been using for years even before the CG method but never used other DevaCurl products. Since starting the CG method my hair has never been the same. It is super frizzy, much lower density, stringy, less curly, less ringlets/clumps, doesn't hold curl, just weird and awful looking! I've wanted to give up so many times on the CG method thinking that it just wasn't for my hair but maybe once I start using different products, it will get better. This sucks!
Omg I lost it when you said the dandruff spot, I had scaliness/flaking, itching, redness and thinning at my left temple for so long, and I also didn't consider my Deva products. For me, I thought I was using too much dry shampoo and not washing enough. Then I said screw it, bleached my hair blonde, got a bob, and wore it straight for like 3 months...lo and behold, after 3 months with no Deva products, I no longer had the itching, flaking/scaliness or redness on my temple, and I had a bunch of little sprouts of hair growing back in. I noticed and though, wait this makes no sense, I was washing my hair using purple shampoo regularly, using heat to style every time, and had double processed my hair, why is my scalp better and fuller after going blonde? Then I saw a video by the curl ninja, and finally it clicked.
About 2 weeks ago I had no gel to put my hair in a ponytail. So I used my old devacurl gel I hadn't used in so long. Immediately the next day i had and itchy hairline amd tiny scabs along the hairline as well. I was getting so concerned about the scabs I showed my boyfriend and thought I was getting psoriasis. After I had washed my hair a few times the scabs went away and I thought it was due to cold weather. Then I see a bunch of videos on devacurl. I cant believe their gel actually caused me to get scabs on my scalp. I really was about to go to the dermatologist.
I used my arc angel gel I got in like 2018 and my hair feels no different
The heat would activate the dangerous chemical release of formaldehyde. It happened to me to when I would diffuse as well
I'm sorry, FORMALDEHYDE??? whaaaaat??!?!?
GW S which preservative is this? I’d like to avoid it
@@ampersignia It's the kind to preserve dead tissue for dissection.
I noticed my issues with the products in October 2019 as well. I bought them in August though. It all started gradually from the hair loss, to losing definition in my curls, then to my scalp feeling a burning sensation.
itchy scalp was the biggest thing for me with devacurl products, second was hair loss and frizz. i had bought the cream styler and gel in may 2019. With the cream styler the itching lasted for 2 months after using it only a few times. and with the conditioner, the hair loss was immediate after each usage. Btw AG hair products were open in another tab before i started this video. I think i'll try them, although it's hard to trust again lol
g g i think everyone will have a hard time trusting hair companies, especially after losing hair. i don’t blame you! I don’t want to recommend anything I haven’t fully tested yet, but so far so good with Ag. I hope your good hair comes back asap!
I love the leave in and recoil cream 💕
I was having thee same issues with devacurl in late 2018/ early 2019. My hair was looking EXTREMELY dull and dry. And I had to cease use because my scalp was becoming itchy and dry and dandruff riddled. I was honestly embarrassed thinking that maybe its something about my hair or maybe I wasn't doing something right. I just stopped using it, my hair improved and kept it at that. I was stunned that so many people are coming out now with issues about devacurl and now I feel SO much better about my experience.
I quit taking pictures too. :( Lost my confidence.
I love how positive your attitude is!
Your hair is super gorgeous in this video! Hair goals 😍 I’m definitely throwing out my diva curl products now! My hair also has been getting worse!
I LOVE RED CURLY HAIR!!!!! You look great, I'm sorry for your bad experience
Thanks so much for posting this video. I have noticed that my hair is dry, dull, stringy, lacking curling definition and had a sour smell. My scalp would actually start to ache on day two. No more DevaCurl for this Curly GIrl!
OMG when you were describing your dandruff- I have the exact same symptoms and the only devacurl products I've been using lately are the buildup buster and no poo ;(( getting rid of those ASAP
Omg girl I literally just reached for an old bottle of devacurl gel that I haven’t used in a while and then I see this video!!!
Thank you for informing so many of us. Btw you are super pretty I love your hair texture and color
Thank you for this video! I've literally been using the same products as you and thought I was going crazy and it was just me. I've had all the same issues as you since last year and for months now I've just been wearing my hair in a bun. Started seeing these videos and now know I'm not alone and I washed my hair tonight with no Deva Curl and holy heck what a difference. I have some curls again! So yeah, thanks for sharing your story with us.
Love seeing so many people being open and honest about DevaCurl 👌🏼
I finally found a youtuber with the same type of hair as me, I cant wait to see your routine without devacurl, so I can finally see how to care for my hair
Keep seeing these videos finally clicked on yours and now all my scalp and hair problems make sense.
I really admire your frugalness. It is refreshing!
I love your hair color😍😍😍 and I think it’s best for all our curly head girls to use natural products, these expensive high end brand just want our money, which just ends up making our hair worse and having us think we need more of their product to fix our hair problems
Literally me. I have *never* had scalp issues until a few months ago and I chalked it up to winter, even though I also live in the south and never had scalp issues growing up in cold Pennsylvania. Ditched all my DC products, but am still having sore, itchy scalp, so might have to hit the dermatologist.
Thanks for sharing!
I really noticed when the weather got colder this fall. My curls have been frizzy since like april. And that makes sense because I had stocked up on like 8 bottles of conditioner and gel and ran out and had to buy new. Never thought it could be the product. I just thought it was my hair and the weather and kept making excuses for awhile 🤷♀️
Ur hair is so beautiful. Thank you for posting this.
Isn't this the same thing that happened with that Wen hair care system? As a curly girl this is terrifying to me.
Just stumbled on this video. I used DevaCurl products on my hair 5+ years ago. I liked them at first but after almost a year, they began to weigh my hair down. It's distressing to hear these stories of how DevaCurl is ruining hair. When I think back to when I used it, I did have an itchy scalp but never attributed it to the products I was using. After a few other brands in between, I switched to All About Curls by zotos purchased from Sally's. Finally products that worked and were affordable. I also invested in a shampoo brush purchased from amazon. It's all silicone and massages the scalp to prevent hair breakage and promote a healthy scalp. Your hair is beautiful, BTW! So glad to hear you got it back to where you like it. :)
i have only noticed a change with the no-poo and one condition with my hair. i never used it regularly but when i did i noticed a change. i have super curly hair so i use mostly the products they make from that line and i dont feel a HUGE difference. but i will be looking out for more differences even though i've stopped using those regularly. thanks so much for sharing!!
omg i got a sample of their leave in conditioner and have been using it for 2 weeks and started having the itchiest scalp on day 2-3 out of nowhere!! i didn’t know what it was, thank god for your video
This is the 5th video I see. I hope more people make videos so DevaCurl can stop lying about not changing their formula or whatever it is they’ve done. I know some people have gotten together to file a class action lawsuit for their scalp damage. Please keep spreading the word!!!
Thank you for making this video. You’re an absolute sweetheart! Btw, your hair color is STUNNING!
N A thank you so much!! 🥰
Can I just say that I ADORE your frames!!!🥰🤓
semi-unrelated note but I started my curly hair journey on almost the exact same date! I took my 'before' photo, the first of many monthly progress photos, on June 19th, 2018, right before my first wash day. and that second video you mentioned watching that inspired you to start your journey was the same one I watched!
It’s really unfortunate that we think we’re getting an amazing product because we are spending so much money for it to destroy the hair and scalp and have the company blaming the people using the product “wrong” instead of accepting accountability for selling a product that is dangerous. I hope your hair and all our curly lovelies gets better and back to it’s full health!
You’re so cute! So sorry for your hair issues!
We've been cg for about the same amount of time. I never felt Deva products were in my price range, that being said, I'm so sorry you went thru this and all the others that are as well.
youre so beautiful! And your voice is very calming. Thanks for sharing your experience!~!
Thank you! I have been using the shampoo, conditioner and some styling products. I'm a student so I blamed my loss of hair to stress although my schedule has changed so much as a grad student that I no longer have the stress I used to when my hair was better. I also have dandruff and my hair is becoming more and more straight!
I’ve mostly just been using the conditioner and now that i think about it every time i use it my scalp would itch like crazy and this weird film would come off and my hair would be so dry. Now I know it wasn’t just me and the products are crap now.
Hey! Little half off topic question. I noticed your hair doesn't curl at the top. Mine also just curls at the bottom. Where is that coming from? Is it the weight of the hair? I have shorter layers at the top and would really like them to curl :( any advice?
I have the scalp issues you mentioned and I’m not using deva curl nor have I ever. I do use a sulfate shampoo and the matching conditioner which my mom buys. Could this cause it?
This is the second video in a row that is saying DevaCurl did this. I feel so sorry for you and I hope your hair will revive
Thank God I never had the budget for their products. I hope you recover fully from this.
i’ve been using all devacurl recently and my hair is also DULL and not very curly and i think i have buildup too. it just looks so flat and stringy and gross??? like i’m so sad i’d rather shave my head at this point. my hair honestly looked better when i was using regular old sulfate and silicone shampoo and conditioner years ago. 😭
Britt Lyn use a clarifying shampoo and put everything devacurl away they might need it for testing later. Switch lines completely but definitely clarify first
Hey I also have an itchy scalp and I think it is because of the products I use, what shampoo, conditioner and stylers are you using right now?
This is the second video I've seen about devacurl issues and I don't doubt that this company switched up formulas! I feel so bad for those women who are suffering from the horrible side effects. I used deva curl products for the first half of 2018 and stopped because I just couldn't afford it anymore. I'm so lucky and thankful now, I'm wishing everyone else a safe &quick recovery!❣
I began having similar problems with my hair and scalp for at least 6 months, in hindsight, probably less so for a year. The problems finally became intolerable about 2 weeks ago, but I had been using an Herbal Essences product and Tigi products. I started researching what would change the texture of my hair and finally ordered some new products- which of course worked miracles instantly. Thank you so much for talking about your scalp issues and what you experienced with DevaCurl, (my hair never liked DevaCurl) becuase it sounds like my issues are almost identical to the problems people had with DevaCurl. Now I will throw out all of my formerly trusted products and work towards a new hair care plan. I can't help but wonder how many products are having similar issues.
What product are you using now? And I had the same experience when I used devacurl for a bit. My scalp was super itchy (I just thought it was because it had soy and wheat protein) and it weighed down my waves.
I only use archangel gel n conditioner in divacurl. I don’t put with close to my scalp. My scalp is so flaky top front. I wonder if it’s getting on my roots somehow?
Do you ever use briogeo hair products? I don’t have the scalp issue, my scalp actually looks better than it has in years but my hair is so dry and looks like your pictures I just went and cut it all off to try and start over
Love this video! Thanks so much for putting this out there. It really is great that you understand and can relate to all of us who has had damage to their curls. I have been using diva curl And getting the diva cur since 2014. The last two yeats i have noticed my curls dying. I have naturally really curly hair 3b but the last two years i have been wondering why my curls are dying. My hair is now straight barely wavy. No offense to people who have that kind of hair naturally. I just miss my natural curls and it isn't right to be deceived by a product. I dont know what to do with my alien hair now.... what ag product do u use? Im scared to try anything now.
Thank you for your video; I've been using Deva Curl products, doing the curly girl stuff for one year this month now. I've used the B'Leave in every single day. And I'm now feeling like my hair is DRY, losing definition, just losing the health it seemed to have. What AG products do you recommend? My curl pattern is similar to yours, and I've DEFINITELY noticed my hair losing all of its shine and just looking dull with less curls lately. Thank you!
Yes to everything you said!!!! I've been on my curl hair journey for a reeeeeally long time, I never got the amount of frizz and scalp itch that I got using devacurl this last year! Silly me never thought to question the integrity of the brand, I though it was just me!! Yuck! Out the trash it went. Waiting for my order of Innersense gel to come in, they are a clean organic brand that will hopefully see me through some scalp healing that I desperately need. I feel like I need a new cut, the new products, and probably acv rinses and hair masks.
YooToobgurl86 i want to try innersense and i feel like i need a new cut too!
I've only been using Deva Curl products for a few months, so I am glad I am hearing about this now! What shampoo, conditioner, and hair products are you using now? I don't know what brands to turn to now.
How did you get rid of the dandruff spot? I have that too but I don't use diva curl.
Your hair is beautiful! What are you using now? I have curly hair and used Devacurl, but stopped because my hair was falling out. Thank God I have a lot of hair!!
Your hair is looking stellar! I love your color too. I'll look for the AG products you recommended. Could you please tell me what AG stands for? Thank You!

It's great that curly/wavy movement has saved a lot of people from straightening and heat damage but it's sad that the it hasn't resulted in acceptance of the hair we actually have.
Is it okay using their mist-er right leave in? That’s the only products of theirs I have
Your hair colour is gorgeous!!
I totally love your glasses!
What AG products did you switch too? I had been using the diva curl stylers on my four year old daughter but in July she started to break out with a reaction. I stopped everything and I am praying I didn’t ruin her hair! I just want her to have her pretty hair back.
