Mielle Organics CEO Monique Rodriguez has addressed claims that her brand’s Rosemary & Mint line causes hair loss after several rumors about it surfaced on TikTok. Not only that, but Mielle Organics released an official statement denying being involved in active litigation regarding product safety and potentially cancer-causing ingredients.
On Sept. 8, Rodriguez took to Instagram to clarify the situation after a TikTok user named Danesha Mo’Nék and several other netizens claimed that they experienced hair loss and scalp irritation from popular Mielle products like the Rosemary & Mint Hair Strengthening Conditioner and the brand’s hair growth oil.
“From the very beginning, authenticity and transparency has been at the very core of what I do,” Rodriguez, who sold Mielle to major consumer goods corporation Procter & Gamble in 2023, explained in a video shared Sunday.
