I hope life is just fantastic for everyone! My lovely sister Zipporah sent me a comment that I just had to address today. Her comment is:
'My hair is natural it's has been for some time now. What kind of tips would you give to me. Managing natural hair is very expensive. What would be your suggestion to an African American with natural hair. That would be less expensive."
Well Zip, I do have some suggestions for you that many many African-American women with natural hair swear by! As you stated, bi-weekly or monthly natural hair care maintenance can be very expensive. However, you can use certain products designed for natural African-American hair that will maintain your natural hair do while also promoting healthy growth and appearance. And the best part is that they are made by African-American Women! Cool right? Here are my top 3.
1. Miss Jessie's Hair Products. Miss Jessie's Hair Products are specifically designed for curly and kinky hair. They have several products that many of my friends love. They are Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue and Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding.

2. Carol's Daughter Hair and Body Products. Carol's Daughter is a 100% nautural hair, skin, and body beauty company. Celebrities and Natural Divas love these product.

Jada Pinkett Smith and Mary J. Blige are spokeswomen and part owners of the company! Jada Pinkett Smith attributes Lisa's Hair Exlier ($17.50) and Hair Balm ($11.00) to her hair's growth and healthy apperance. Zip, I believe your hair texture is closer to Mrs. Smith's. I personally have purchased the Black Vanilla Leave-In conditioner. I LOVE IT. It retails for $11.00.

3. Taliah Waajid Hair Care Products. Taliah Waajid is a premier natural hair care stylist in Atlanta.

A big hug and kisses to all my natural fly Divas! Please email me if you have any other natural hair care tips!
