Hair Oils
A oil is essential for your hair growth and health! I highly recommend that you do research on your hair type whether it’s high porosity or low porosity, because the type of oil you use depends on your hair type.
As someone who's hair gets oily very quickly, jojoba oil is the only oil I can really use since it is light. I really like to use this on my ends to make them soft as well as on my scalp and edges. Also, if you're a fine hair girly like me, this is a...
100% Organic Jojoba Oil for Hair & Skin
I know there has been some controversy about this hair oil, but for me personally this was the product that grew back my damage hair. I don't use it anymore since this oil is quite heavy on my hair, but truly this was what made my hair grow back heal...
Rosemary Mint Hair oil
This is another hair oil I really like. I usually use this on the ends of my hair the day before or a few days before wash day, just so that my ends are extra soft. This product is also multi-purpose, meaning you can use it on your skin, hair, or nai...
Africa's Best Herbal Oil
Shampoo/Conditioners
I have been using this clarifying shampoo for two months now and I LOVE IT! i definitely understand the Cécred hype now. This shampoo genuinley makes my scalp feel and look clean. I also really love the peppermint scent. I have a very sensitive scalp...
Cécred Clarifying Shampoo & Scalp Exfoliating Scrub
Recently, I started using the Cecred hydrating shampoo and I don’t have any thoughts on it yet since I am quite new to it, but I will say it does leave my hair feeling very hydrated and soft. I love using it after washing my hair with the clarifying ...
Center Hydrating Shampoo
This Shampoo is my go-to. I use it every wash day on my hair. I like the formula as well as the scent. It's not a crazy expensive shampoo as well which is nice.
Pantene Repair & Protect Shampoo
This is hands down my favorite conditioner! I leave it in my hair for 3-5 minutes and it makes my hair so soft and also easier to detangle which makes the blowdry process way much easier!
Pantene Repair & Protect Conditioner
Hair Mask
A hair mask is definitely not something that you need in your hair care routine, but it is definitely something that you should consider adding into your hair care routine. especially if you’re someone who has really dry hair.
This is the first deep conditong mask i've used ever! I just started using this a few months ago and I really like it! It makes my hair really soft and also smell so sooo good, even after I washed, blow-dried, and straightend. The scent on my hair li...
Camile and Rose Algae Renew Deep Conditioning Mask
Heat Protectant
If you’re someone who straightens their hair every now and again or you straighten your hair regularly, you should have a heat protectant. This is to ensure that your hair is not damaged by the heat. you should have a water-based protective and a oil...
This is my go-to heat protectant. I believe it works well. I only use this to blow-dry my hair, not when I am about to straighten it since it is a water based heat protectant.
CHI 44 Iron Guard Thermal Protection Spray
This is the heat protectant I use when I am about to straighten my hair. It leaves my hair feeling shiny and also smelling really nice.
Fantasia Heat Protector Spray Treatment
Silk Press Essentials
For my silk press girlies or my straight natural girls, you definitely want to consider getting some of these products!
This serum definitely makes my hair feels very silky after I have straighten it. It's also lightweight and won't make your hair feel heavy or greasy.
CHI Infra Silk Infusion
I unfortunately live in a very humid state which means my hair will freeze up a lot. This humidity spray works really well with combating that. Its light weight and smells good. For me personally, the spray last in my hair for about two days before I...
Kendra Anti-Humidity Spray 5
When I had sew-in this was used almost daily. I didn't like to use heat on my leave out everyday, so I used this holding spray to make my leave out look more blended and put together. I also really like using this for my slick back ponytails.
Extra Hold Hairspray
When I had my sew-in this was my holy grail! I'd bring this to school with me and whenever my leave out was looking a little crazy, I'd take this out and slick it down. I still use this for my slick back ponytails or low ponytails.

Hair Tools
I love scalp massagers for when I am oiling my hair and especially when I am washing my hair! This tool is really good for picking up that layer of dirt on your scalp as well as stimulating hair growth!
Scalp Massager
I love scalp massagers for when I am oiling my hair and especially when I am washing my hair! This tool is really good for picking up that layer of dirt on your scalp as well as stimulating hair growth!
Scalp Massager
I really love using a wide tooth comb rather than a brush with smaller bristles, because my hair is fine and using a wide tooth comb for everyday use is much more gentler on my hair.
Wide Tooth Detangling Comb
I really like using satin scrunchies, because their more gentle on the hair and cause less breakage or pulling.
Satin Scrunchies
A satin bonnet is a item I think every person should have whether you have curly hair or not. It protects your hair from unwanted friction or breakage and insures your hair is protected.
