Hi guys welcome back to my channel.

My name is simone chaka in today's video we're going to be talking about my hair journey using the nature's bounty, hair, skin and nails extra strength, vitamins.

I made a first impression video on this product two months ago and i'll go ahead and leave the link in the comment box down below so make sure to check that out before we get started with all the details about these vitamins, let's go ahead and grab Our snacks grab our drinks.

I actually have a notebook guys filled with all the details about things that i was remembering, and i wanted to go ahead and cover that briefly here in this video and again guys make sure to watch the first video.

So you guys have a full understanding of how i began using these vitamins.

Let's take a deep dive into what the hell results.

I had pros and cons all the side effects using these vitamins, so the candle of the day guys is actually back there.

It's a yankee candle home edition it is santa's treats.

I picked it up at my local burlington check out your burlington.

Maybe they got that cattle too, so you guys can experience the smells that i'm experiencing this candle smells like honey bun.

So if you guys love honey buns, especially during the holidays, i suggest you find it pick.

It up burn it.

You won't regret it.

So, let's go ahead and get into all the details about using these vitamins.

I wanted to go ahead and talk about some of the reasons why i picked this up in the first place.

Back in october, before i started using this product, i was noticing that my hair was thinning.

Not only was i noticing the density of when i would put my hair up in a ponytail wasn't as thick as it used to be looking at the sides of my hair or my head, i should say i was seeing my scalp a little bit more like There are some areas where i can definitely see my scalp or you know what i mean the white scalp, because hair is obviously gone or absent right, so i was definitely noticing that a lot more and it could be age.

It could be jeans, but, as i'm getting older, of course, naturally i'm just losing hair.

That was a reason why i kind of gravitated towards taking these vitamins to see.

If there was any improvement, if it would help with the volume i have seen my hair growing.

I have little baby hairs kind of coming in i'll, go ahead and insert a photo here of just random me doing my makeup, and it just so happened that i found like a baby, hair and they're honestly kind of like all over the front of my hair.

Like little small, not obviously these but they'll be some smaller pieces of little like this, like little tiny hairs and they're they're, even smaller than that, there's some that are really small than that and i've just seen little pieces again like this kind of growing.

So that's kind of interesting, so maybe, as i continue using these vitamins i'll see my hair getting more voluminous.

So that's something that i've definitely noticed.

My baby hair is growing in some areas, so hopefully with time as i continue using them i'll see my hair a little bit more voluminous.

Now, as far as the length, i hadn't seen any kind of changes with the length, and i asked marco if you had seen any changes with the length, but again we see each other every day.

I see myself every day, so i wasn't really seeing any length.

It's really awesome to see before and after photos of it getting longer, but of course, during the meantime, you're in the hustle and bustle of life.

So you don't really notice those things.

So i'm gon na go ahead and insert a before photo of the video.

That is featured in the description box.

That's the first video, my first impression video and i'm going to go ahead and get up.

So you guys can kind of see side by side what the results look like.

It is a little bit curled at the tip on the side.

Let me put it in the front now in the first video guys, if you guys watch it you're gon na see that i mentioned my hair is about the side at the length of where my belly button is so right.

Now my belly button's right here.

So look at this and, of course i'm not getting like a freaking measuring tape or anything like that, but it's honestly grown like this much.

Can you guys see that i'm not sure what the hell measurement that is probably half an inch, but here's my belly button like there? It is so you guys won't say i'm lying there.

It is and then, if i go like this, you can see some growth.

So that's my hair and again i'm gon na insert those photos, so you guys can see first hand what results i've gotten.

So, let's continue on with my notes, like i was telling you guys the length, maybe like half an inch a little bit over half an inch is what i've seen as far as the growth.

I have seen baby hairs coming in at the crown of my head and what else i've noticed that my hair is more shinier.

The video quality is probably not that great, but i've just seen my hair a lot more shinier and i'm trying to look cute with this headband for the holidays, and maybe this light isn't doing doing it any justice.

But i feel, like my hair, is more shinier.

I think it's because i'm using these vitamins, so let's continue talking about the skin, what i've seen as far as my skin, my skin's kind of confusing guys.

So i'm gon na try to like say this kind of fast.

Okay, so like i was mentioning in other videos that i have, i am suffering from adult acne i had acne when i was younger back in middle school, i had acne blackheads all that good stuff in my junior and senior year of high school.

I didn't feel like i had a lot of acne and i say this because i don't remember it.

Maybe it didn't bother me that much maybe i didn't have it, but i don't remember having acne and more so now, as i'm almost 28 years old, i've noticed that my acne is has been getting really bad significantly worse.

These last couple of months - and i was discussing this with marco - and we were kind of putting our heads together because when we got together, he was also telling me that he didn't remember me having pimples he's like no, i don't remember you having like the face That you do now no offense or anything, but i thought that as well, so we were kind of discussing and talking okay, what changed between now and then what what have i been doing? What have i been not doing what things like that like trying to put the puzzle pieces together and we came to the conclusion that it could possibly be my birth control could be triggering my really bad acne.

So that's maybe a reason why i have adult acne.

Whatever i do, whatever creams, i do whatever masks, i do how much water i drink, it just doesn't seem to go away, but i wear makeup every day i beat this face to the gods, honey and, of course, that's not helping my pores leaving something on top Of your face for eight hours or more a day, obviously it's not healthy for your skin.

So that's probably another reason why i do suffer from my adult acne.

I have to say guys using these vitamins.

My skin got worse.

My skin was breaking out like freaking nobody's business.

I was getting really bad, really bad acne here, of course around like the mask wearing, and maybe it's also because we wear our mask every day is another possible reason why i got really bad acne.

But i also feel like these vitamins did something, because when my when i was experiencing a breakout - and this is kind of gross guys, but when i was experiencing a breakout on both sides of my face or one or the other, it was itchy.

And i knew scratching it.

Bacteria is gon na grow and just stuff like that.

So i was like what the and i had never experienced anything like that before and i knew this something's up something's up with my face.

Not only was i getting it on both sides on my forehead, i still have one now.

I have one on my chin somewhere right here, so just different areas of my face and i knew this product was making me break the out, but i do have to say talking about skin care, i'm not like a skin care expert.

I don't know that much about skin care, but talking to other people who know a little bit more, let me know that good skin care typically makes you or not necessarily good skin care, but certain skin care ingredients or certain skincare brands kind of push and pull Everything out from, of course, what's deeply penetrated inside your skin layers, and it kind of makes you break out, makes everything kind of come out and all that stuff.

So i was thinking that maybe this is one of those kinds of products.

I didn't really notice it right away, maybe like the first week or two i was kind of breaking out and that's where i kind of started putting two into that.

Maybe it's these products giving me really bad acne.

I've noticed that the surrounding area around my pimples has been really nice, like i'm talking about, like my skin, feels and looks to me more plump, more vibrant, more radiant, even the skin, on my body or even my hands.

I've just noticed them more.

How do you say colorful, like my skin, looks healthier so looking at my skin now guys through the makeup and stuff.

It obviously doesn't look that bad, but right now my skin is not that bad.

My skin is healing up, for whatever reason i don't know.

If it's, because the vitamins probably already kind of wore off and my body already pulled, pushed out all the icky gunky nasty stuff from my face or if using the juice beauty blemish, control line is actually working.

So, honestly, i have no idea what the hell is going on, but i'm not upset at my face getting better so hopefully using the products you know in conjunction will go ahead and fix my face as well as make me look like a radiant all over.

Let's go ahead and talk about the nails guys so back for most all year of 2019 and the beginning of 2020, i was getting acrylic nails.

I always had my nail sets on and ever since covet hit.

I haven't gotten my nails done and during that time my nails were very thin.

My nails were so thin that you can actually kind of like push into the nail bed and it would turn white and pink and you it would hurt.

When i would bang my hands.

My nails were very thin and flaky, like the top layers, were all flaky from when i would take off my nails.

All the layer of nail was exposed down to the last layer and it was very, very painful guys.

So these are my nails now look at how freaking, gorgeous and thick my nails.

I can't even freaking bend them, they have been broken, and this is like the third time that i've cut them so they've been growing non-stop uh.

Not only that not only is my hair and my nails growing guys, but the hair on my body has been growing a lot faster than anything.

So that's something else guys to think about.

Whenever you guys are using this product.

Yes, your hair will grow, but your hair might grow in all other places.

The taste is something i still haven't gotten over.

My stomach doesn't get irritated as it did back when i was using first using this product back in october.

I take it kind of chill.

I take one in the morning one in the afternoon one in the evening.

If i remember and just like that, i don't want to overwhelm my body, but the taste still is there.

I can still feel, or i can still like, burp up the fishiness and that's never gon na.

You know be cool with me, but i mean whatever it's a sacrifice.

I have to do to get all this looking cute, a recap: the pros using this is that you will see your hair grow and i do recommend you guys picking up this uh scalp exfoliator.

This was a dollar at the dollar tree.

So pick one up and use it in in combination with shampooing your hair, just to get those hair follicles stimulated and to get some hair growth growing.

Another pro was that i saw my skin.

I see my skin getting better now again, i'm not necessarily sure if it's the vitamins.

Finally, you know done pushing out all the pimple juice out of my face, and now you know my skin's looking a lot better or if me using my juice beauty, blemish control.

Skin care line has been working for me.

So again, i'm not too sure about that.

I'M still gon na see what's good within these next couple of months of using this product, and my nails have been so freaking long and beautiful and strong, and i'm just so happy of the results.

As far as like my nails go now the cons i haven't seen my hair dense yet still pretty thin to me.

You know again.

I know i have hair.

I know it's more than a lot of other.

Ladies and people, i'm very grateful for that.

But if there's stuff out there that we can buy and take, then why not? You know, that's why i'm making videos like this, so you guys can save your coin.

While i let you know if it's a good product or it's shitty um did i miss anything in this video.

I hope not and yeah, like i was mentioning.

My hair did did grow about half an inch, maybe a little bit longer and i'll go ahead and put those pictures up again, so you guys can see the before and after so yeah guys so make sure to like comment and subscribe to my channel.
