Top 50 Natural Hair Products For Black Hair

First things first, you need to know what exactly kinky hair is to understand how to best care for it. Obviously it’s how your strands grow from your scalp, but kinky hair is also defined as a 4a-4c hair type that is tightly coiled with a zig-zag pattern (LoveBeautyAndPlanet.com).

Kinky hair requires a lot of maintenance because of its tight curl pattern, making it harder for product to seep into the strand. All of which should help you narrow down the products you need to keep your hydrated, growing and flowing.

Textured hair loves moisture, therefore you should should treat your kinky tendrils to a drink once a week (not that kind of drink — water sis). Aloe is great for hair because it contains water. While we all love our hair oils because they certainly smell good and add shine, they’re not sources for moisture but help to lock in moisture in the hair follicle. Leading us to the curly girl’s secret weapon — conditioner. Conditioning your kinky hair is important because water-based conditioners provide that delectable scent and moisture that your hair is craving to make it happy.

Because kinky hair can be the most fragile of hair types and prone to the most breakage. We have 25 ‘must have’ products that will ensure your kinky curls stay moisturized, defined, and luscious all year long!
