a company can apply for trade secret exemption with the fda which allows them to sell a product without listing all of the ingredients (the fda knows the ingredients and approves them) on the label so its not illegal. i read that kinky curly did this with their jojoba jelly when it first came out. it keeps other businesses from stealing the formulas. i suspect this is what kemi oyl did. they've been around for years and im sure you aint the first one who tried to get them in trouble. i dont think fantasia ic or wild growth oil lists all of their ingredients either.

I thought the ingredients were listed on WGO?

It is and so are fantasia's ingredients.

WGO would be dumb to do that, especially they make such lush claims about hair growth and all. You KNOW people would get naturally curious.

Xim, when I was reading the Cosmetic Act I didn't see that info. I guess that is the info they hide from consumers. Anyways, great info and thanks for sharing.

wgo lists some but not ALL ingredients. the fantasia ic gel with sparklites is the one that doesnt list them unless they added them since last year when i bought mine.

girl, u gonna make go to the fda site to find that info. lordy, ok, this will take some time..

ok, i got this from a law site since i couldnt copy and paste the stuff from the fda site.

basically, if a company can prove that their product is novel, contains unique ingredients and can be duplicated by a competitor, they may have grounds (among other requirements) to receive trade secret protection.

Ah Man, I really hope that isn't the case, I was looking forward to finding out what the ingredients were for the Kemi Oyl

 

[~*~ShopAholic~*~]

LOL @ this thread.
I would really like to know what those ingredients are too and for all we know they could have stole or duplicated these ingredients from someone else just added a different fragrance and/or color.

I bet that's exactly what they did. That, or just add one more oil or other ingredient.

Me, too

 

[Poobity]

Well....I don't know what their ingredients are. Thankfully I haven't had any ill effects from using their oil....as a matter of fact I just bought a bottle today.

 

[AlliCat]

So did anyone find out??

 

[peacelove]

I would love to know too.

 

[lamaria211]

I had a friend in highschool who had beautiful hair she always said that she only put this oil in her hair. I remember it always smelled so good where are u ladies buying it from?

 

[winona]

lamaria211 When I went to visit my mom last year I picked some in the BSS for nostalgia purposes

 

[peacelove]

Well after revisiting this classic a couple of weeks ago, I can tell you with almost 100% certainty that there is silicone in this oil. Don't know if that has ever been discussed before, but there must be some in here based on the slip factor.

 

[NappyNelle]

I used to buy Kemi Oyl when I was relaxed. It made my hair blingy and smell amazing. *sigh* I'm into natural oils now, but maybe I'll purchase this the next time I straighten my hair. lol: Who knows when that'll be.)

 

[SUPER SWEET]

Aww man yall made me go back to my college days...KEMI OIL I really liked the product they had in a plastic container that looked almost like lotion.

Now someone PRETTY PLEASE duplicate BBD stretch cream because that is the ULTIMATE hair growth product for me. It's soooooooooooo hard finding it.

 

[KhandiB]

I used to use the heck out some Kemi Oyl, lol
They still sell it in all the BSS's out here in baltimore county

 

[Eiano]

Wow, old school...

This is super OT and I realize this thread is like 6 years old but.....

do you pronounce it KEE MEE oil ? Long E or Kem-eee oil, (like the artist Kem)

I'm just realizing that I may have been pronouncing it wrong for the past few years.

 

[jcdlox]

I always pronounced it keemee oil, but after using it for about 10 yrs I stopped. To me the formula is different and smell is no where near as good.
