Shampoo
Gentle and refreshing shampoo from one of my favorite brands. It makes my scalp feel cleansed and not dried out like other shampoos. Perfect to pair with a clarifying shampoo!
Pure Harmony Hairbath - Innersense Organic Beauty
I highly recommend this brand if you’re just starting your curly journey. It’s simple and doesn’t strip your hair of its natural oils.
Hask Argan Oil Repairing Shampoo
Conditioner
Perfect conditioner/brand for curly hair beginners! This one is a great foundation for my styling routine. It helps detangle my curls in the shower and leaves it feeling moisturized.
Hask Argan Oil Repairing Conditioner
Love using this mask as an alternative to a conditioner, and as a quick mask! The tea tree oil leaves a cooling effect on my scalp. I section my hair and distribute it all over. Only takes three minutes!
Hask Scalp Treatment Hair Mask Infused with Tea Tree & Rosemary Oil
Leave-In
I typically use this to break up my cast after styling my hair. Apply with hands or spray right onto your hair. Subtle, sweet scent. Very lightweight.
Sweet Spirit Leave In Conditioner - Innersense Organic Beauty
Now this leave-in truly speaks to its name. With the right product combo, it keeps my curls hydrated all week long. I notice better definition and a significant reduction in dryness.
SheaMoisture Intensive Hydration Leave-In Conditioner
Styling
The most recent product that my curls
LOVE. It’s a lightweight consistency that’s not as sticky as a normal gel. Very buildable - I use one to two pumps per section to really define my curls. Perfect combination with a leave-in and/or a proper gel.
I Create Curl Memory Gelee - Innersense Organic Beauty
Amazing gel. Leaves a strong cast and extends my curl definition by several days. It’s managed my frizz well in both humid and dry climates. Perfect combo with my Innersense Curl Memory rec.
Advanced Climate Control Heat and Humidity Stronger Hold Gel - Ouidad
Love the Denman brand! My first styling brush. Perfect for detangling and styling. Once I got the technique down, my curls became SO defined!
Black D14 Original Styler 5 Row - Denman | Ulta Beauty
Larger size of my 5-row Denman brush rec. The 7 row creates more tension, allowing for more shape, definition, and volume.
Black and Red D3 Original 7 Row Styler - Denman | Ulta Beauty
Diffusers
Drying my hair is twice as fast with this diffuser.
WavyTalk Turblow Pro
Masks
Very simple and refreshing hair mask. It has a cooling effect and a subtle minty scent. My curls always feel revived after use.
Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Strengthening Hair Masque - 12oz
Color Treatment
Really great for color touch-ups in between appointments or for a less messy coloring session at home. Builds with each application and wash. I use “espresso”, but the brand comes in a variety of shades and bright colors.
Keracolor Color + Clenditioner Temporary Hair Color
