Karen I agree.. I'm sure Simply Stylin' is a wonderful product.. However I have a problem with advertisers disguising themselves as "helpful" members.. The marketing techniques used have turned me off from this company and their product forever.. I am deeply offended that they would try and bamboozle the public in this manner..

Thanks for the information about them.

PS - I have no problem whatsoever if you wanted to vaporize this thread. I recall reading the good reviews by so called "customers." Obviously these reviews were left by the company itself which is inexcusable.


 
Hi AMM,
 
You are very kind.  I am going to let the post stand because it is only fair that you provide your feedback on the product.  I just wanted to share what happened on my end.  It may actually be a good product...I don't know but at any rate...I appreciate your post.  Thank you so much.

Not only did they post all over this forum, but they posted the same "recommendations" all over Black Hair Media as well.. They used the same tactic.. That is pretending to be customers passing on product tip information to other members.. The funny part was watching these shill members have whole conversations with each other..

If they don't change the recipe on this stuff, they have a customer for life with me.   

 
Hi AMM,
 
I do not mean to be disrespectful but I want you to know that last week I had the HB attorneys getting ready to go after this company. 
 
They - SimplyStylin - spent ALL last weekend spamming HB.com.  They posted a ton of advertisements all over HB.com and I reported them to Verizon for spamming. 
 
I also sent a note to their CustomerCare email and told them that if they ever posted about their product again on HB.com that I would have my attorneys take immediate action.
 
Their product may be good but as a company, they suck and I stand by that.  Any company that spams like they did has no integrity.  I still have the long list of "fake" posters with their IP addresses and my correspondence with the company.
 
I also told this company that I will never promote their products, never recommend them and never use them.  I don't care if they have the best product on the market.
 
Did they make me angry?  I guess you can tell.  :-)

I've been using Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum and it's pretty good.
I'm looking forward to trying this!!!
