Mineral Indulgence Natural Products Create Healthy Hair!


Mineral Indulgence hair care products are created with natural, organic ingredients that contain essential oils, butters and plant extracts that are well known for their conditioning properties. Research and product analysis have been done to create a special blend of ingredients that when combined work to soften and strengthen dry or unmanageable hair. 

Synthetic oils which includes mineral and petrolatum are never used in our product line due to their unhealthy nature of clogging pores and their potential to cause hair breakage. Our mission is to provide healthy alternatives for hair care that not only cause hair to be beautiful on the outside but also strengthened and conditioned on the inside. Consistent use of Mineral Indulgence Natural Hair Products will be apparent in normal to damaged hair within just one week when used as a complete regimen of cleansing, conditioning and moisturizing.  If you have never used our natural hair products which include over twenty essential oils, nutrients and butters, prepare  yourself for a very special treat! Include all of Mineral Indulgence natural hair care products in your daily maintenance regimen for best results. Your hair will love you for it!

Product review : I love the shea and cocoa butter hair cream. It did so much to thicken my hair after a long serious illness. After using the cream for approximately one month, I noticed new fuzz growing in where I had lost most of my hair ( in the top). Everyone in my office noticed that my hair was growing in and asked what did I do. I said between the hair vitamins and the consistent use of the product, my hair came back. I thought I had lost it forever. Thank you for having a wonderful product and I thank myself for finding it. Loren Gaffin

Product review: Dear Mineral Indulgence Customer Service, I want to let you know how great your Shea and Cocoa Butter hair cream is. I used it on my 13 year old foster daughter after she was placed with me. When I first started doing her hair I had trouble because her scalp had sores and scabs and she had a lot of hair loss because her hair had not been properly cared for. She was depressed so I took a chance on trying this product. In 2 months, her hair had grown back and the sores were gone! The areas where she even had what looked like patches of hair missing even had new growth. I reordered more for her and some of your additional products so she could have a regimen that could get her hair back in good condition. I look forward to trying some of your other products in the future. Yours truly, Melissa Grant, Atlanta, Georgia

Product review: I am glad that you brought this product back. I purchased it in bulk right before it was discontinued because it works better for me than your hair smoothies. It softens my hair but it doesnt feel too heavy. My hair is a 3a but it is very thin and the smoothie was just too rich and emollient for me too use. I gave it to my sister (she loves it) but I will be purchasing more of the Olive and coconut milk leave in conditioner to help keep my hair from drying out. I wish it was available in the Honey Almond fragrance though because that is my favorite scent. Renee Johnson, Jacksonville, Florida

Product review: Hi, My name is Makailya Smitherman. I just received my first order of your Shea and Mango Conditioner and I just wanted to tell you how much I loved what it did for my hair. I have natural coarse hair and usually  just no poo by using a conditioner since my hair has always been too dry. I am currently living in Canada and it is very dry here and also difficult to find good hair care products for kinky hair like mine. I saw a review about your conditioner in a hair care group and tried it for the first time two days ago. The first thing I noticed was that my hair felt soft immediately and it wasnt tangled as usual. I then noticed that my hair was very shiny and it stayed shiny even though I havent used any oils on it in two days. My roommate noticed the same results on her relaxed hair which was a pleasant surprise to both of us since her hair has some damage from flat irons and usually doesnt condition well. We will be ordering more soon and I cant wait to try the Herbalaxer too. Thanks from both of us.  Maki and Bree

Product Review: I am a newbie natural woman who was looking for a natural shampoo for my hair. I saw an article in Essence magazine about your product line and decided to try it after having no success with some of the more popular shampoos. I used the Napturally and could not believe how detangled and soft my hair was. The comb just glided through and my hair was shiny and so soft that my boyfriend could not stop touching it.  I am in love with this product line and highly suggest that other naturals like myself give it a try.

Dear Mineral Indulgence,

I very rarely write product reviews but I was so pleased with the results that I got from using your Kiwi Coconut Hair Smoothie that I wanted to say thank you!  I am stationed overseas in Iraq and have had a lot of difficulty finding the right kinds of products that could really work on my 4b hair.  My hair has always been extremely tight, frizzy, coarse and so dry that in high school kids called me the Brillo Pad. I have used all kinds of products in the past but my hair seemed to drink up oil no matter how much I put on it.  My mother found out about your product line and sent me a bottle of the Kiwi Coconut Hair Smoothie in Kiwi Coconut Fragrance and the Napturally Sulfate Free Shampoo.  One day after using these products ( I literally mean ONE day),  I did not recognize my own hair.  It was shiny, soft and detangled which was  a good thing but the BEST thing is how gorgeous my hair looked after doing a two strand twist! Heads were turning left and right when I walked past with my new hair do and everybody wanted to touch it to see if it was real because there was now even length to what once looked like short and frizzy hair. I also like the fact that my hair does not feel greasy after using the smoothie and the fragrance is not overbearing.

All of the women in my unit are excited about using Mineral Indulgence and we appreciate the fact that finally someone has created products for women of color that really work!  We wish you continued success! Bridgette Mason

Product review: I am vegan and I use your products because I have  had bad allergic reactions to other hair care products in the past. I can only use products that dont have chemicals in them so finding a solution to styling my parched hair always been a problem. I  purchased your Coily Locks and Revitalizer from a boutique and have fallen in love with it. I just spray, add the Coily locks  and finger style.  No more frizzies and my hair has springy soft coils. I use many of your products and now use some of the others that are on your kids line for my son too. Thank you for making our journey to healthier living easier! Keep up the good work.

Product review: Hello, I am writing about your hair scalp serum which I bought a little while ago after reading about your product line in Essence Magazine. I have never purchased from the internet before so this was a big deal for me. My hair is relaxed but I have had some hair loss because of what my stylist referred to as scalp burns from me leaving the relaxer on for too long when I tried to do my own hair at home. My hair was brittle and dry but I also noticed that it had broken off around the edges. I used your serum for a little over a month and noticed that my hair was trying to grow back. My stylist was very impressed and she also ordered some for her aging mother who also has had hair loss. I use the Avocado and Almond shampoo and the Shea and Mango conditioner with the Dress to Impress pomade on my hair every ten days which has helped me cut down on trips to the salon. I tell everybody about your products so I guess you can say that I am your biggest fan. Thank you so much. Patricia Dubose, Baltimore Maryland

Product review: To whom ever it may concern my name is Valerie Morrison and I recently used your herbalaxer on my 4a hair. Since it came with several packets, I used two of the others on my daughters hair which I believe is also a 4a. I was skeptical at first because I had heard that there is no such thing as a chemical free relaxer for natural hair but one of your customer service reps explained to me how this product would work to help me soften and detangle my hair. I used the first packet but admit that I didnt use it with the dryer as suggested so my hair just felt soft but it was still tangled. I bought a cap style dryer and did another treatment on me and my daughters hair the following week and immediately noticed a difference! Our hair felt stronger, softer and was much more detangled. I also noticed little curly q's  and more length  when I used the free sample of the Curls By Nature that was included in my order. I almost didnt buy this product because there is so much bad information out there in hair care groups and web sites that tell you that natural hair relaxers dont really work. It may not work for everybody but I am happy that it worked for me and my daughter. From now on I will be basing my decisions on my own experiences and paying less attention to groupie hair sites. I now use your entire hair care line as a regimen to maintain mine and my daughters hair. I sent you a pic of my hair and my daughter Kia so you could see for yourself.   Ps. When are you going to make the Curls By Nature available to purchase? I like to use it with the Nu Loc and the Coily Loc  for hold. We also love the Napturally and the Kiwi Smoothie. Thank you, Val Morrison

Straight, Waves, Curls, Relaxed or Natural

The options are endless with Mineral Indulgence Herbal Hair Care Products

Below is a simple easy to follow categorization of ethnic hair. Analyze your own hair texture to see which is most indicative of you. Mineral Indulgence hair care products are formulated to beautify all types of hair naturally! 

NATURALLY STRAIGHT HAIRClassification 1 


Hair texture: Fine in texture with natural high shine due to light reflection and absent curl pattern. Lacks body and may have difficulties in retaining curls.

Question:  I am biracial which includes Asian, African American and Caucasian, however my hair is naturally very straight.  It is also extremely dry and damaged from curling irons and hair dye. I am frustrated because my hair is breaking off every time I comb it. Is there a product that would work for my mixed hair type? Thanks for your help, Kioki, Manhattan, New York

Answer: Straight hair is classified as type 1 however it is not uncommon for people with biracial backgrounds to have mixed textures of hair. Knowing your hair type is important due to the fact that some products may adversely effect different types of textures. For example, perms and relaxers are both chemical processes however both are not as equally effective on different types of hair. If your hair is damaged from heated appliances, chemicals, dyes, or bad hair care products, use Mineral Indulgence Olive & Rosemary Hot Oil Conditioning Treatment to revitalize and replenish the oils that your hair is now lacking. Trim any split ends and maintain your hair with natural products in order to properly condition it in a fast and effective manner. Try to use less heat on your hair whenever possible but if needed, use a small amount of Shea Pressing Oil to help protect your hair during heat application. After using for as little as 4 to 6 weeks, your hair should be properly conditioned. Naturally yours, Mineral Indulgence Hair Care Team
 

NATURALLY WAVY HAIR- Classification 2A,2B or 2C 

Hair Texture: Easily noticeable  “S” curl pattern as it hangs loosely. Some shine due to light reflection properties. 2A hair is fine with wavy patterns.  2B hair has a medium texture which appears to be a bit heavier than 2A. 2C hair is thick with a frizzier/curly appearance. 


Question: I enjoy using so many of your products because they work wonders for my hair. I am hooked on the Almond & Avocado Butter Shampoo along with the Shea & Mango Butter Conditioner. I have naturally curly hair but it is also frizzy and dry so I have recently added the Pure & Natural Detangler and the Olive Oil & Coconut Milk Leave in conditioner to my regimen. I appreciate the free samples that I always receive with my order but noticed that sometimes the prices of my favorite products are higher or lower in cost.  The price changes are small and are not a major difference,  but I wondered why the prices change every now and then. I would also like to know what I can use to give my hair a more moisture so that it is easy to style in different ways. Thanks, Camille, Washington, DC

Answer: Mineral Indulgence hair and skin care products are created with herbs, plant extracts and other ingredients that must be cultivated and harvested as a crop. Changes in the economy from everything to fuel, rising food costs and production can have an adverse effect on businesses that operate according to demand for natural resources. This is also why some of our products are only available during certain times of the year. 
For example, all of our products contain at least 5 plant oils with the majority of the products containing shea, coconut and olive oil. When suppliers must raise the prices for these precious natural oils due to economic factors, it effects the fluctuation of prices for our products. The goal of Mineral Indulgence is to provide safe and effective alternatives to chemical laden products that are marketed to unwary consumers all over the world. For this reason, we try to offset any rise or decline in prices by either absorbing the difference ourselves, slightly altering formulas or introducing new products that are just as beneficial to our customers. Most recently we have changed to a more environmentally friendly shipping package as well as product labels that are half the size that they were originally. Nature provides everything that is needed to nourish and beautify hair and skin. We can all do our part by using alternatives that are both healthier and environmentally friendly.  Thanks for the great question..Ps..Try Olive & Rosemary Hot Oil Treatment for conditioning your hair without the need for frequent use of other moisturizers. It contains several natural oils and herbs that you can actually see in the bottle, to help condition your hair and scalp. Naturally yours, Mineral Indulgence Hair Care Team

 

NATURALLY MEDIUM CURLY HAIR – Classification 3A, 3B or 3C 

 Hair TextureTighter curl pattern with low shine, lots of body, coil, spring and medium to heavy shrinkage when wet.

3A hair types have a looser curl pattern. 3B hair has a tighter curl pattern thus appears to be dense. 3C hair has a tight curly look and may appear slightly kinky and frizzy with coils. 

 

Question: Hello and thanks for developing natural products for those of us who do not want to use the toxic chemicals that are inside of many hair and skin products. I am highly sensitive to chemicals and have found it difficult to find real natural products in stores. I am also a mother and use these products for my daughters hair too. I am very concerned with the fact that many popular store bought products contain chemicals that have the potential to be cancerous or cause problems with reproduction according to a program that I saw on CNN.  I love using the Nu Loc Hair Butter to create natural spirals in my hair and my daughters hair. I use it with the Kiwi Coconut Smoothie and our hair stays in the style for several weeks at a time without the need for added moisturizers. How can I find your products in my local store?  Thanks again for the great products! Adrianne, Atlanta, Georgia

Answer: Unfortunately there are many misconceptions in regard to the word "natural". Mineral Indulgence products however, are created from organic, plant, herbal and mineral ingredients that are derived from nature. Herbal remedies used since the beginning of time have been compiled to create products that can be used safely and effectively for natural hair and skin care. Products that are most often sold in stores, are not developed nor marketed to those who prefer to use real natural herbal ingredients. The word "natural" is often used to mean a variety of things however, it is not always indicative of the actual ingredients or process used to develop the product. Many so called "natural" products have been found to contain just as many toxic chemicals as others that are not marketed as such. This is a clever marketing scheme perpetuated by large companies in the health and beauty industry.  Since herbal, and plant based ingredients have a shorter shelf life before deteriorating or spoiling, it is not practical to sell them in large bulk to stores where they can be stocked for long periods of time on shelves.  Harsh chemicals are often times used as preservatives to allow products to be mass produced for sale which sometimes makes a product less "natural" to consumers. Mineral indulgence products are packaged and shipped on the same day in order to maintain freshness without the use of toxic preservatives.

NATURALLY KINKY COILY HAIR – Classification 4A, 4B, or 4C

Hair Texture: Naturally drier and susceptible to breakage thus requiring extra moisture for maintenance. 

4A hair may reflect ringlets or coils.  4B and 4C may appear to be wiry.
Tightly coiled, coarse and kinky in texture. Most often is thick and void of natural shine. Heavy shrinkage when wet.

 

Question: I only ordered one product (Shea & Mango Conditioner) initially but found out from reading your newsletter that natural products work best when used with other natural products for a complete hair treatment regimen. I stopped using my store bought brands, ordered some others from your website and have been using your products for a few weeks now. I almost immediately noticed a difference in my need for extra moisture and softness after using your products. Since I have been using the Kiwi Coconut Smoothie in the Light Kiwi Coconut Scent (LOVE IT!!), Napturally Sulfate Free Shampoo (LOVE IT!) and the Olive & Rosemary Hot Oil Conditioner, my hair is very soft and I do not have to apply extra oils to my hair during the week. This is great for me because my hair is normally very dry, coarse and brittle due to previous damage from a relaxer. I like wearing my hair in its natural state and can tell that it is much healthier that way, but my job is not as supportive of me wearing a less tailored hair style to work.  I would like to wear my hair in a straight style during the week and be able to go back to my natural state when I am not at work. I would like to know which product works best for my 4A/4B hair type and can give me some sheen as well. Thanks, Selana Jacksonville, Florida.

Answer: Unfortunately many people are unaware of the fact that many products sold in stores contain mineral oil or petrolatum as a means for lubricating hair. However, both of these ingredients are derivatives of gasoline and are simply used as cheap alternatives to natural plant based oils by companies who make huge profits by selling inferior products to consumers. The difference that you have noticed in your hair is attributed to the fact that natural plant based oils are capable of actually conditioning hair whereas mineral oils are not. What you believe to be extra dry hair is often times a result of using products that claim to contain moisturizers but really contain ingredients that make hair more  dry and brittle over time. This is also why reapplication is necessary in a very short period of time when using mineral oil based products. Mineral Indulgence uses plant oils and butters that work to condition hair from the inside out so that you will not need to apply extra moisturizers as frequently. Our products work in synergy with each other which means that they are most effective when used with our other products as a complete hair care regimen. Plant based products are not designed to be used with chemical based ingredients. Shea Pressing Oil is an excellent product for straightening transitioning hair so that it is more manageable during heat styling. You can apply as much as needed depending on your hair texture and thickness. Use Loc  Gloss for needed sheen when wearing your hair in a natural style.  Naturally yours, Mineral Indulgence Hair Care Team
