At least that’s what the model claims in this YouTube video.
It’s an Internet advertisement a new organic hair care system for some supposedly aunaturale, chemical-free temporary straightner that miraculously turns kinky hair into bouncing and behavin’ straight hair. Can you say RIO? Remember that fiasco. Women flocked by the thousands to buy that product from some California-based company in the 90s. It also made the claim that it was an herbal hair straightener with totally natural ingredients and the guy applying the relaxer even ate some it before he put it on the model’s hair. I remember wishing I could try it…but I’ll tell you my mind kept saying at the time it was too good to be true. So I put on my investigator hat and tried to call the company. I eventually got a Los Angeles phone number for them but no one ever answered the phone. That to me raised a big red flag. Low and behold, about a year later complaints started surfacing about this product ranging from turning hair unnatural colors to making it fall out. A class action lawsuit was eventually filed and the plaintiffs won.
