My Staple Hair Products
I am often asked what my staple hair products are and I thought now was the perfect time to share a list of them with my readers. I am a HUGE fan of the Shea Moisture line because of their creamy products. It has taken me 8 months to realize that my hair responds better to creamy products, and not those that are oil-based or watery. The Shea Moisture line is available at your local Target store or Amazon. Some of the other products that I use are readily available on Amazon as well and at your local beauty supply stores.As you can see, I don't use very many things on my hair but those that I do allow me to achieve the results I desire. Do not get discouraged if you find your hair not responding well to a product. Do your research and experiment based on your curl type.
