Perhaps the shampoo is infused with a crochet needle, thread, yarn, and shells.

I will never be okay with this narrative that black people need all these products to make our hair ‘grow’. Like no, that’s what hair does. It grows!! (Unless someone has a medical issue) It makes me so upset that people lie and push this toxic narrative that we need all these products. My routine is literally the simplest it’s ever been (shampoo, condition and style with one product) and it’s literally the healthiest it’s ever been!! Ughhh I hate that we’ve been lied to for so long! And you’re right! It’s not just hair!! Thanks for speaking about this, Mayowa!

They could’ve used Chloe or Halle for that Harper Bazzar video if they wanted women in the industry with natural Locs, but then again I think they like “us” embarrassing ourselves

Anyone with locs knows that it shrinks shorter after the initial install. Who's inch long locs shrink down and grow to Bob length in six months? Girl bye. That's how you know she doesn't know a damn thing

Lmaoooo yo your niece being the on-site videographer was THE CUTEST!

My bf has locs and he said the same thing. I said “Eva has locs now” he saw them and said “those are fake as hell”

Is the eyebrows for me!!! I’m catching all kinds of fifth element otherworldly vibes from where I’m sitting. 🥰🥰🥰💯💄💋👠

“If you want to make your money and lie, just tell me” - couldn’t agree more

No person with locs would be doing a whole ass multi step wash routine. You literally shampoo and go like twice a month…

your niece is coming for these videographers and photographers necks. they could never! this baby is an intern!!! just pure excellence. i don't know why people lie about their hair journey. it's unnecessary. and I'm so glad your page is expanding. love it!

Those of us who grew our locs from short length knows in six months your hair will not get that length. I saw that video months ago and was surprised at her hair because she is known for short hair, she and her handlers are making a mockery of those of us who took the time, patience and frustrations to grow our locs. If she gets cancelled no strikes on your part, continue your great videos you have your audience..... Blessed

Hair growth rate if you don't have underlying health issues like Alopecia, is between 0.5 to 0.7 inches per month. That's 6 inches in a year at best, If you can retain that length. As someone who formulates 🌱hair products, this 6 months progress from a shampoo, is false abegi!!!!🤣😂🤣😂 This needs to stop tbh...it's the reason folks come to me with unrealistic expectations for hair products. Great video sistar ✊🏽💕👌🏽❤️

To totally be that guy, I been peeped that her daughter with kinkier, type 4 hair has been loc’d since she was a baby, but her siblings (both boys at that) with type 3 hair is loose… nothing wrong with a little girl having locs of course (don’t drag me 😭), but Eva gives me vibes.. especially with her colorist and texturist past on RHOA.

it’s funny that she’s promoting nappstar’s products but didn’t promote them to say that’s the company that did her locs, cause there’s a whole video on their page of them attaching the extensions 😂😂😂 i would be so furiated as the stylist to watch that video hearing her say that’s her hair knowing i’m the one that did the extensions for her smfh

“If my hair can prevent me from getting a job, then how can you say it’s just hair”!!!!!!!! Yessssssss!!!!!!!!

Firstly, you are sooo beautiful and I love your non traditional makeup. You’re hair is flourishing. The way you articulate your thoughts is great and authentic.

The look is just GIVING ! Plus, your nieces' reflexion in the mirror was just PRECIOUS !

'Nappy' hair should be celebrated. Shame on Eva for her disparaging comments, and thank you for exposing her lies and disservice to our community. I looked at the comments on her video, and black women are NOT as dim as Eva and Harper's Bazaar perceive. Many in the comments called her out thankfully. I think your hair is beautiful and very healthy by the way. My favorite item of the outfit was the necklace.

I love the necklace, looks like something a mermaid would wear

Everything you’re saying is on point. You’re not alone.

I saw the video that Eva made and immediately exited when she said she grow her hair in 6 months. I was like this is nothing but fuckery and foolery.

Mayowa -- I love how when you get serious or more passionate about something you switch to your Nigerian accent ! I'm here for it 👌🏾🤣❤️💚🌻

I've been natural for 2 years and I have avoided all NATURAL KZfaqRS because they lie and are ridiculous!! There is no way I'm spending hours on wash'n'go. They are all product pushers. I have 3C/4A/4B hair, I had to learn what worked for my hair. Love you and your content!!!!

Desirability really has us in a chokehold….. per usual I love your content!!! So thorough, so poignant & you are spot on! I hope all is well with you love.❤️❤️

I legit have not thought of this woman since she was on ANTM

It’s SO cute how your niece was in the shot how cute! 😍🥰

I've yet to see Eva Marcille and Terrence Howard in the same room...I'm not sayin;, I'm just sayin'.

Sis every comment was on point, her locs are boho chic and synthetic, a person in the loc community can see this clearly. It is a big disrespect to all of us who go through the authentic journey. Give Thanks for highlighting it, safe journey to Naij🎊🙏🏿

Girl I am South African and I have 4c hair. It's been more than 8 months and my hair hasn't begun locking. Eva needs to sit down cos none of that is true.

I agree with you. I would say, I personally don't really like the term nappy for kinky hair because my mother's culture is Jamaican. She raised me and in that culture, a nappy is a diaper. Which is literally where the reference towards kinky hair stems-seeing kinky hair as looking like poop in a diaper. So I will always see it as derogatory because of the longstanding cultural connotations of using that word in regards to kinky hair. Eva has been problematic for years and she got away with a lot because black folk love putting a light bright with light eyes on a pedestal. Times are slowly changing but not fast enough in my opinion. We still have elite groups of 'black' people in the united states who are generational mixes holding most of the wealth and prestige in the black community that they inherited from their slave master fathers and mothers. That isn't discussed a lot because they are protected by their money and standing.

Just found your channel and i love this ! I tell my clients all the time that less is more. It’s annoying when videos like hers are made 🙄 like girl you not fooling us.

I remember seeing that video pop up on my KZfaq and was absolutely floored with how confidently she spouted those lies

Yay! Another video from my favorite KZfaqr. And I laughed out loud at "Where is the conflict? It's looking like slip n slide." Your jokes are superior love.

That lie was outright disgusting. I get 4 inches of hair in about 9months to a year, if things are good I’ll get 6inches. I can’t stand lying to sell a product

I always tell people, your hair will grow whether you want it to or not because you are alive. Once you are alive, your hair is always growing, the issue comes with length retention.

I couldn't pass over the light blue necklace on your skin tone 💙 I have learned the best way to grow your hair is to leave your hair alone

I literally feel like I have been teased for my hair so bad. One of my close friends told me my hair was too thick to do and it was making her hands hurt. She was putting my hair into braids. Then, my neighbor, called me nappy headed when she has kinkier hair than me. Smh. The texurism in our community suckkssss!

I enjoy your content too much… you inspire me to go full force with my podcast and speak about the things I love too, without fear. Thank you for your videos ! You always put into words what I’m thinking. Have a safe flight back to Nigeria ! (Also side note: Eva has always been a damn liar, even a liar on RHOA. Would just LIE for no reason.)

Unfortunately…she lies often. I had the chance to work with her several times. She’s also a covert colorist😖 So glad I don’t have to deal with that low vibe crap.

But Eva's daughter hair is not like hers, so she she needs to be careful what she is saying about black women. 🤔 Kamar is like......hmm I'm ready to pay her a visit

Unrelated but I love how free you are in the pick up and go to live in new countries,finding new opportunities and experiences for yourself. I'm gonna join your Patreon.

Thanks for saying that about locs... I dead ass litterally almost use nothing unless I have a "special occasion." No the less you do the healthier they get...

It’s the brows and necklace for me .😍 Also I love listening to your perspective on the natural hair care industry. - 22 year old from South Africa.♥️

I watched her harper's video and i ROLLLLLEEEDDD my eyes. I have my locs and the reality of locs and how they grow and shrink and matte u cannot grow ur hair from 2 inches to bob length in 6 months. It actually enraged me that she sat there with her loc extensions and gave people such an off impression. It was genuinely sinister.

You're so on point. I have been locked for almost 25 years. I have NEVER used that many products. I am semi- free form as I started manicured but for the last 10 years haven't retwisted. I wash with black soap or Dr. Bonners and put some type of oil in it and...that's it. Not doing all that stuff. Locs are not for that, like if you're locked just cause it's I style now.

Finally someone who ain't afraid to call people out on their shit 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Mayowa your subscriber base is growing and will continue to grow because we as Black people are thirsty for the truth. Especially the colorism issue. It's real. Love it whn it's discussed. For the sake of our beautiful young ladies that hve been made to feel unattractive via the media. Keep doing what your doing an we will be here.

HEEEEY! I am starting my loc journey to you thanks to you. I cant get free form because of work but I have been through so much in my family for not looking bi racial. I been natural since 2019, I had my mom secretly perm my hair and it fall out, I had a stylist cop off my hair rather than comb out product i didnt ask for. I wish I be like you! I be preaching the same things as you. I want my kids to love thier blackness just like you 💕💗🙏🏿

Hey girl, heeey! I see no reason why people would lie on their journey, but to each its own 🤷🏾‍♀️

Hi Mayowa! 🙋🏾‍♀️ Loving the white brows and the ripped jeans. I'm a Naija Babe as well, and I admire the fact that you live out loud and don't let others dictate the Trajectory of your life!! So inspiring!

When ever someone calls me NAPPY HEADED, I always say ''YOU NEED TO TALK TO GOD ABOUT THAT".

Mayowa, I love you because you say, do, wear, and say whatever you want.

As always I love your makeup, outfit and that necklace 😍

I had to go check Eva's video then come back just to make sure there was no misunderstanding. "What was the reason?!?!" 😂🤣😅

never knew this about her THANK YOU FOR SHARING

It's so overwhelming when I see anyone telling me I need 5+ products on my hair. As an elder millennial I literally use 1 product for my hair and body. Judge me all you want. Lol.

Even when you have hair with "weird textures" that don't really fall into one category or other (because man, my hair be like soft curls at the back of my neck and mostly fuzzy to real kinky on the top of my head) there's nothing that you do that "makes your hair grow". It either grows or doesn't (genetics) and then, most people who think their hair doesn't grow often thinks that because they keep breaking the damn hair by pulling on it with the wrong instruments... More often then not, if you leave the hair alone you'll see it grow. I was so sick and tired of people asking me what I put in my hair to make it grow. The answer? Nothing! I do nothing to my hair to make it grow! In fact, I cut it all off not once, twice in my life. People should stop lying about hair.

The Nollywood meme 💀💀

my favorite part of your outfit tbh is the white lace top paired with the denim jean and the white eyebrows!!! it's truly giving everything it needs to give!! thank you for speaking on this much love and appreciation 💜💜💜

BEAUTIFUL MA. LOVE YOUR ENERGY AND THE VIBE. New subscriber

I love that you reclaim the word nappy. Imma do it too. TY! Eff acting like there is something so wrong with my hair that I can't even describe it in a word or get all awkward trying to describe this brand of "curly." No, FTS. It's nappy. It's kinky. I'm free.

I really like how the necklace coordinates with the blue denim, so that's probably my favorite part of the outfit. I'm really feeling the white eyebrows on you though, it's so freaking cute 🤍

So glad you hit the nail on the head!!

Thank you for always keeping it 100 Mayowa! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Firstly, you look super cute as always. Love the necklace. Regarding the ripped jeans, I'm from the Caribbean, my dad is in his 80s and feels the same. He explained that when he worked in the cane fields, they would have to wear the thickest denim and the cane blades were so sharp that it would rip the denim to threads within days. They were paid less than 25c a day for their labor. When ripped jeans came into to fashion, he felt as if it was spitting in the face of persons like him who practically slaved away in the fields. Now some white man was making a fashion statement and millions off of their suffering. Eva, ugh. A while back I saw a video on IG, a page called Nappstar, company of the products she's selling and she was getting her extensions removed by the owner, a light skinned black woman. Her hair didn't even reach her shoulders when it was removed. To see a video like this knowing there's one with the take down of the fake locs is madness. It's sloppy and neither her or Nappstar cared to even hide the lie. Eva is a colorist, she problematic but she's also a biracial, green eyed woman who will get a pass because who really cares about insults thrown at dark women with actually kinky hair? The excuse would be that she's black too so it's fine. It took 5 years for my 4c hair to visually reached my shoulders. I started my journey with shoulder length hair but as it started to loc, it tighten so much that it shrinked to almost half its original length. There's no magical way to grow hair, it takes time and patience.

whew. thanks for talking about this!!!!! the amount of lies Eva got caught in on RHOA this ain’t surprising at all. but its very unfortunate. and i love that you pointed out her using the word “nappy” in a derogatory way!!!! ugghh

Another great discussion! Thank you for speaking on it...

Your whole outfit is great! Loved the brows but at first I didn't know what to think!

I love how confident you are in yourself. My daughter is your complexion and she was feeling down about being dark, bc of friends from school, but I kept affirming her and letting her know how beautiful and great she was. She has locs as well, and she is loving every moment of it. I just love your commentary on Eva call her out girl people need to know. Liars need to be put on the spot. Thank you for that btw I subscribed to your channel. Be blessed and keep it up. #queen #beauty

No lies told 🔥 also, what is with people who can't accept that maybe their hair just isn't meant to loc and that's ok? Am I the only one seeing Eva's wispy real texture hair, hella fine/thin, poking thru the locs and me thinking naaaw your hair fighting for its life for why 😭 Also my fave part of the outfit: def the denim! I love an asymmetric distressed/rip jean leg 💞

YES! You’re always giving!! Love you, love this channel!! 😍

You don’t know how comforting it feels for me to see your videos on my home feed 🥰

Six months!? Oh, girl. My sister started with a big chop and has had locks for 7ish yrs. It's a little past her shoulders. Btw, you look so good! 😍 And I especially love those jeans.

SIS, we need more thrifting/fashion content🤝

This is Gonna b so Insightful🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Wednesday😀….

Great video!

She’s definitely pushing that product because what magic oil can make your hair grow that fast?! I wish. I love when you highlighted that “it’s not just hair” because hair impacts many facets of everyday living. Thank you for sharing!

I LOVE Kinky hair. I have learned that my kinky hare is AMAZING! I mean, straight hair is recessive.

Gorgeous!!! I love everything!!!! 😍😍😍😍 You are inspiring!

New subbie here!!! Thank you for speaking the absolute truth and calling out the BS!👏🏾👏🏾

Your intern needs a raise! She’s so beautiful 😍

as soon she explained that the growth was from shampoo I screammeerddd and we can tell those are starter locs they love bashing locs but get faux locs/ starter locs 2 I hate how they hate on type 4 hair it’s frustrating

The eyebrows are a mood. I would've never thought to do that type of contrast, you got me out here about to experiment💄

Great Video as always !

You are giving me face, body and drip! Love your content and confidence! 🥰💞🤎💞🤎🤗

It was her getting the extensions removed by NappStar not even a month later that really cracked me up cause I’m like sis what was the reason?? You ain’t need to lie lmao

I love the top and you have your own swagger keep going

Sis...YOUR hair is GORGEOUS 😍

girl when you said ramen noodles I died for a moment. much love 🧡

Kenya's hair is loose because its heat dammaged. She straightens it super often. I remember when her hair was short. She is more a 4a hair texture. But nappy it is not in any way. Not even gonna speak on Eva. Never liked her since i first saw her face on ANTM. She is so stuck up. Dislike her personality tremendously.

Ate this upppppppppp! No lies we’re said

My favorite part of your outfit is all of it. You are very creative and beautiful. Please keep going you are really giving insight and truth. Those two combinations always win in the end. ❤

AND yes I was heavy on antm back in the first seasons. She was always nasty, uppidity, rude, colorists ect,

I have had my (manicured, 4c) locs for one year and ten months now. When I started, I was using so many products products that these social media hucksters promoted. Now I just use aloe shampoo and a spray or two of orchid oil. I love being free from using so many products. I appreciated so much how you put into words how nice it is to know that your hair doesn't need a zillion products just to exist, or be healthy and beautiful

i LOVE your makeup it is alway so cool and so flattering in the most innovative way possible!

You wear YOU well ALWAYS. SIDE BAR: I LOVED your Ramen noodles and Slippin & Slidin comparison to Eva's texture of hair! 🤣

The whole outfit is great as always',but the necklace is truly mesmerising. It caught my eye again and again during the video.

Yes girl we love you! You’ll be bringing us the real deal information that no really talks about. I haven’t found anyone else like you and I don’t think I ever will that’s why I’m subscribed to you💯❤️‍🔥. I love you for who you are! You’re one of a kind Mayowa!!!!😘

First off, thank you for holding her accountable about them stiff ass Locs. I laughed/ran to the comments looking for my Loc’d fam to stop the cap. 2nd, your crown is going tf off sis, beautiful. 3rd, it’s the jeans fa me. 4th, you need a white tee that just says nappy.

Mayowaaa!!! OMG, I remember seeing you around in Berlin and you doing stand up at the House of Living Colors party I was Dj'ing at. I'm so happy I found your channel. Your Locs are gorgeous 😩🤧🤌🏿. This is prime content. I can't with Eva Marcille LMAO and as a RHOA fan I was so mad at Eva when she made those remarks and was happy when Kenya and Porsha could finally come together on something, and that was calling Eva on her Bullshit . So excited to follow your journey into Nigeria! 💞 Nai in Berlin
