Favorite Natural Hair Products – Shampoos
I don’t use shampoo very often. Usually after wearing a protective style for an extended period or I’ve been co-washing for a few weeks in a row.
Even then, I always dilute the shampoos. I also use shampoos when I need to clarify my hair after applying a product that didn’t work out well and I need to start again.
In 2019, I’m hoping to try out shampoo bars for the first time and already have a few lined up. Stay tuned for reviews.

Favorite Natural Hair Products – Leave-in Conditioners
A great leave-in finishes off a style and seals in all the goodness from the start of your regimen.
I always have at least 3 – 4 leave-in conditioners in my rotation at any given time.
When I’m in a protective style such as braids, I also dilute my liquid leave-ins, mix with a few other ingredients and use it as a braids spray.
