A rice water shampoo and conditionner are a must-have for slick and shiny AND and before hair straightening. Thank me later ;)
Rice Water Protein Hair Shampoo Bar - Kitsch | Ulta Beauty

Rice-water based conditionner is the most important step in your slickness routine. If you'd need just one product for this, it'd be this one. But I hardly recommend to have a rice-water shampoo too, from the same product line preferably. The result ...

Black D6 Detangler and Scalp Massager - Denman | Ulta Beauty
Before drying or straightening your hair, a leave-in conditionner spray is a must. The shine it brings to your hair is really impressive. No hair protector does, so if you don't have this type of detangling spray, try it. Thank me later girl.
