OMG I'm obsessed with Pattern products (the smell, the way they make my hair feel, the way they make ME feel!!) and here you are, shouting out one of my favorite RU-vidrs!! Life is coming full circle... Lol! Speaking of full circle, I just have to put this out there on the interwebs, one of my best friends gifted me a mini set of Pattern products (with THE flyest tote bag) (gurrl, the MESSAGE!), that's how I learned about this brand, and THEN I found out that another one of my best friends is the proud mama of the brilliant young man (aka photographer/film producer/etc) who recently shot a commercial for Pattern!!! #fullcircleinfulleffect 😁
I formulate hair products and for the most part when you see an alcohol it’s to compliment the preservative in the formula. It’s normally used at the smallest percentage and it’s for your safety. I’m sure you wouldn’t want to use a molded product! Don’t be afraid guys! 💜💜
I like that you gathered us up like a therapist and told us to “shift our expectation!” Sometimes we be having a mountain in front of one product and shoot it before it even moves
I know some people hate product reviews but I admire yours because of your honesty! It never feels like you are pushing something you aren't gonna use and if you don't like somethin you tell us! Thanks, Faye
Your girl Sherea put me onto that Pre-Poo & I love that Kool-Aid Shampoo! 😍 Spa 🧖🏽♀️ day is well said! Thanks for letting us know what you started with!
Oh I’m do that too I need a treatment This winter weather has my hair so dry what are you ladies thoughts 💭 on hair steaming I follow a lady in hair business elite hair care here on you tube she is awesome tnx Faye for all you do
@@wandabanks679 i think using steam or heat with deep conditioning treatments can be very beneficial. I’ve never tried steam but heat makes a huge difference for me. A lot of people love using steam
Appreciate you contacting them (and them responding). I haven't tried anything from Pattern bc the reviews (whew) but I need a good strengthening treatment so I might try this.
There you go - back in my pockets! I thought we talked about this. I thought in 2021 you were going to stop acting up! You on time out!😩 On the Ulta app now😩😩
I appreciate your review on this because I was anticipating a moisturizing treatment! I only use protein before and after heat (which is the current state it’s in) so I may still purchase it ☺️ Great review Chile!!!!
@@FayeInTheCity Me too. I used it w their intense conditioner and I was blown away. And their scalp serum made my scalp feel like I was at the spa. Tracey got it right w this one!!
I would definitely compare this to aphogee too bc this treatment had my curls going crazy!! I was so surprised!! I enjoyed It honestly!! I didn’t go in thinking much about It but I was surprised!!
You could never play poker because your face would tell your hand every time! I love that about you. Besides the honest reviews, your face tells it like it is, too. I love Miss Ross, yet I have been wary of her line. Now, I'm wondering if I could try this. My hair needs extra strength because it is FRA-GILE! My hair is also super-fine and not dense, so I have zero control over it. I don't fight it, yet I'd like to have more strength to my hair so that I continue to retain length and health. You crack me up. Thank you!
I’ll tell you this: I like this. I really do! But if you ever want a recommendation on strengthening, my first recommendation is The Mane Choice reconstructor. It does the same thing as this mask but it also has moisture. This is Pattern mask is a good mask though
Thank you for the video. I just ordered the hair mask, and I watched Tracie's video for it, but for me it makes more sense to also see how it reacts with a hair type a little closer to mine. Your video was very informative. Was worried about that short amount of time, but the 10 minutes did the trick. Thanks again for all you do.
I use the African Pride Pre-Poo on my hair and I love it. Girl on a budget!lol! I just saw about this Pattern product on an on Instagram a couple days ago! Glad I came across this!
That's the thing with Pattern, you have got to have soaking wet hair a for all their conditioning products. I only use them when I wash my hair in the shower. They work for me really well but I don't want to be in the shower all the time.
Yes, this is definitely a “soaking wet hair” type of product too. I honestly prefer not doing my hair in the shower so I understand what you’re saying!
@@FayeInTheCity I actually rinsed my products out of my hair and used this treatment and then washed. There was no lingering smell and my curls are extremely soft and defined.
3c/4a highly porous fine hair here. My hair loves this product. I use most of her line. The intensive conditioner is the best for my hair. Smells like Aveda Shampure line to me.
Can I just say your face at 3:28. Classic! The way I holla'd when you made that face. Hi-larious! Also I'm glad you decided to not give up after your review of the smell because sometimes that's enough for me.lol
Thanks for the review. Will definitely look to switching to this from Aphogee. I’m smelling it first tho 🥴 Love supporting black businesses (well half black but you know 🥴😂)
Awesome video girl....needed this...just finished judas and the black messiah....awesome movie and if you know the story you know 😤😤😡😡🤬🤬.....looking forward to the next upload 😀
@@FayeInTheCity girl they did good!....proud of the story they told...I'm about to watch the little things...the new Denzel movie...check that out too lol....hope you enjoy them both and see ya tomorrow 😉
A viable alternative to Aphogee - thank you Ma'am!! What did you use in lieu of the balancing moisturizer?? Also, do you prefer this or Curlsmith as a replacement for Aphogee? Thank you for the great video!
I’m intrigued, and I love a good protein mask. I was definitely a bit weary, because it said it’ll elongate the curls, yet it has all of that protein in it! Thank you for your wonderful thorough review!🧡🧡🧡🧡
No lie: I totally ignored that. I never really believe any companies that say they will elongate my Curls. The elongation is always short lived so I don’t even count it lol
I’m kinda upset that they dropped this like three weeks after I bought the alphagee treatment bc I could’ve just bought this an just be done with it 😪 but pop off PATTERN more power to u sis I’m happy for y’all tho
Thank you so much for this review! I opened the container at Sephora and had the same reaction as you to the smell. So I thought I’d search RU-vid to see if the product is still worth buying. And I didn’t read anything. Like you, I didn’t know it wasn’t a weekly moisturizing deep conditioner. Thank you for doing the research, I’m going to pass on the product.
I just got my pattern order today in it I have a cabinet mask they may have changed the product because this smells really nice not too earthy almost citrusy
I know it's supposed to have rice water in it so maybe they are masking that smell. I'm not sure just a guess but the product sounds really intriguing!
I went to the store to buy that Mane choice Kool-aid shampoo, but I got the pre-poo instead. The problem I was experiencing with the Tropical Morainga was the clarifying shampoo I was using, and I can't use the conditioner as a leave in. I finally got a pre-poo, so fingers crossed no issues. Also, there you go again with that face, because something "Stanks!" Lol!
To me it smells like moringa seeds, but it’s worth ittttttt. Amazing slip, I wish I didn’t have to wash it out. I parted my hair and applied. My coils were fairly defined.
You mentioned the smell. I have sensitive nose for certain smells. I can smell something within a second. I get an headache. Why once in awhile they can make hair products for non fragrance. Thank you for information
I like Tracee's shampoo and one of her conditioners can't remember which one though🤷♀️🤦♀️I can say I had one issue with the leave in but they got back with me and sent me a new product (it was the spray nozzle not worker) but I just can't offered her products though😭 I was going through the shampoo😆 but I really do think her main concern is for the health of womans hair though...love the review Faye👏😊
Girl I wish this video was out yesterday. Lol...I bought this mask with excitement , 'cause I love Pattern's products. But thinkin' like you and clearly did not fully read the instructions. I was like what the....where is the moisture!😳 I also did not love the smell but I figured it was the fermented rice water. Anywho I did not follow up with the conditioner ...and I had it duh. Was wondering why my hair was like wtf😟. Lol...thank you for the review..next time I will read my instructions. Good review.👍🏽😉
