Wow, that is hella disturbing! I just went on their website and was wondering why I cannot order anything, and have not been able to for a while. I know that "natural" products have a big thing about not using preservatives because they can be very unhealthy. I remember that I used to LOVE Carol's Daughter before they went the mass produced route. I used to go all the way from DC to NY to get the products twice a year. When the products winded up in Sephora, I started itching!...cause of the preservatives. I've been using Hairveda and they are the truth. They've found a way to keep the products natural, healthy, and have a reasonable shelf life. Now, you can't expect to have something natural sitting in your room for more than 6 months or so, and expect it to be the same. Think of natural products as kin to food, in a way. Anyhow, I feel you, there is a balance that has to be created. I've never had that problem because I use the products up really fast. Especially in the warm months when I wash my hair alot.

gorgeous!!!

Is this the only product that you've used from Ori? If you've used others, how did you like them? I plan on buying the samples when they do open...if they open the store again.

Great to see more natural women on the tube :)

2011-09-22T17:54:11.718-04:00

I've been making my own shampoos, conditioner, butters, detangler and oil for about a year now and don't use any preservatives. A jar of flaxseed gel I'd made did grow mold but it was at least 3 months old and was stored in the medicine cabinet, and I had a bottle of experimental conditioner turn rancid after about two months...but I kept it in the shower.

I love this body butter after having found it at a discount retailer as well. And a little goes a long way! I think they ship to the states now (?), but shipping costs from Australia must be crazy! Glad to see others like myself love this!

I noticed her, too.
Have you seen the new Charlie's Angels? One of them has the cutest curly 'fro. I wonder how long they'll let her keep it.

I feel you on fighting your hair. I'm looking fwd to that product review and one on Elucence. I've heard of it for years but never wanted to spend the money.

Hi Lady, thanks for that post, I have heard of that hype before as well. It was all over black hair media a few years back when I first started my hair journey. A lot of women were boasting about the amazing hair growth they acheived with this product. I looked at it and thought "to each it's own". Very thankful for your indepth research!

I am in love with this conditioner. I saw it at Marshalls a year ago and I still have it. The problem is now that the bottle is almost gone. I can not find this product anywhere. I've searched high and low for this conditioner. I'm beginning to think that it's only sold over seas. If anyone know of another place to buy this product other than Marshalls. Please post.

EXACTLY!! @Kiki.

And anonymous....the combination of ingredients couldn't possibly straighten. Well, not in the ingredients I pulled. It may have softened the texture to mimic relaxing maybe.

But I'd like to think(or maybe I just HOPE) they don't make a product that addresses bacterial vaginosis that is so strong that it can actually straighten hair!! That's....scary! lol

2011-05-21T05:33:32.416-04:00

I'm not sure if this is true but I heard years ago that women in prison use monistat as hair relaxer because they don't have access to actual relaxers. It was said that if you leave it on your hair for several hours it will straighten the kinks.

2011-05-20T17:45:33.004-04:00

Monistat is NOT something that I want to put in my hair. People have complained of severe headaches when using this stuff in their hair. Not to mention Miconazole is also used to treat Bacterial Vaginosis and can cause severe cramping for some. Now, why on earth! Smh... some people!

I stocked up the last time I found some jars of it, but just like you, Discount Shopper, I've been unable to find it. :( Won't give up, though. If you find any, let me know!! lol

2011-03-31T16:32:48.868-04:00

I Love this product but haven't bee able to locate it since I first purchased it last year! I even tried contacting the manufacturer. I'm hoping there is a way to buy at least a case of it soon.
