One of the questions I get asked most often is, “what products do you use?”
My answer is usually “It honestly depends on the look I’m going for” (followed by an explanation). Sometimes I say “How much time do you have?” 😉
Today I’m sharing some of the natural hair products that I’ve been reaching for a lot this summer. I guess we can call them my summer favorites.
I am miles away from my product junkie days, but because I’m a blogger, I still try a lot of products. I’m a bit moody when it comes to products. The products I use just depends on how I’m feeling on a particular day or the look I’m going for. Sometimes I like to experiment and try out different combos to see what results I’ll get. On other occasions, it boils down to what I’m reviewing at the time or what my eyes land on first 🙂
Let’s get to the list 🙂
Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie
This is the first product I ever feel in love with way back in 2010. At one point I was using it exclusively but then I got bit by the “bug” and I started trying out different products. No matter where I roam, I think I’ll always love the smoothie. It’s very moisturising on my hair and whenever I want “big fluffy hair, don’t care” I reach for this.
Qhemet Biologics Aethiopika Hydrate & Twist Butter
This has been a favorite of mine since the first time I tried it. I love the way it makes my hair feel. I paired it with the Curl Enhancing Smoothie a few months ago and I LOVED the results. Since then I’ve been reaching for this Qhemet twist butter a lot.
Alikay Naturals Lemongrass Leave-In Conditioner
I remember adding this product to my Black Friday wish list last year. My friend later gifted it to me. To be honest, I was a little disappointed when I tried to use it as a “leave in conditioner” because it didn’t really work that well for my hair. I then started using it to add a light spritz to my dry hair and it worked really well for that purpose. It helps the smooth and detangle my hair and I’ve been reaching for it a lot this summer.
All Things O’ Natural Cupuacu & Rhassoul Deep Conditioner.
One word. LOVE. I did an in depth review on this product and how it performs on my hair. Check it out HERE.
Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Treatment Masque
This is another one of my favorite Shea Moisture products. I don’t use it as a deep conditioner because I find that other DCs work better on my hair. However, as a styler it is amazing.
LACE Natural More Moisture Cream + Apricot Mango Twist & Loc Pomade
I’ve been using these products for the past month and I love the results. I shared my flat twist out results in THIS post.
CURLS Blueberry Bliss Curl Control Paste
This is the newest addition to CURLS’s control paste family. As you know I love the Passion Fruit Curl Control paste. I was sent the Blueberry Bliss paste a few months ago to try out and I’ve been using it exclusively since then. It keeps my edges in place without being sticky or hard.
