OHHHH NOOOOO! I think I'm allergic

[HeChangedMyName]

. . . . . .To my Cantu Shea Butter Leave-In


It has been doing wonders for my hair, it is soft shiny and still moves when I wear it down. But I have bumps all over my forehead and on my cheeks(right where my hair falls. Keeping my hair off my head doesn't seem to be helping. erplexed

I am sooooooooooooooooooooooo distraught right now. I could kick myself. imma wash my hair tonight and not use it for a few days, watch what I tell ya, my face will clear right up because it did when I relaxed(I didn't put Cantu on it then) Hair was tooo straight and fly and I didn't want to mess up the flow.


What I'm gon' do now y'all. The first leave in to leave my hair fabulous and now this.

Are you sure that it is an allergic reaction ? were the bumps red or itchy? Was there any irritation to the scalp? If not maybe the product was just too oily to come in contact to your skin. But if is an allergic reaction, you should just discontinue use....

I dunno, they weren't red, but they are just ugly pimply bumps that I haven't had since puberty. My scalp has also been itchy, but I was chalking it up to growth or something.

That stuff is oily and thick and will clog your pores.

I dunno if you're acne prone, but I can't put that stuff in my head and wear it down. Not unless I want cysts on my face...
