  • Shea Butter 100% - Great Moisturizer and Styling product.
  • Aloe Vera Gel 100% -  Defines coils and waves, adds shine to my hair.

Aloe Vera Juice (moisturizes and strengthens)- GNC for about 8.00

Olive Oil (when put over moisturizer it helps hold it in) - Any grocery store (prices vary)

And if you like to use grease or hair butters:

Crisco makes a great substitution- no pretrolatum or mineral oil or any unnatual ingredient.

--- I use the Aloe vera juice on my hair and slather it with crisco then brush smooth.  My hair has never been softer or Smoother! No Frizzies!

Unrefined shea butter

Olive Oil

DDTA

Creme of Nature

Oyin products are great for natural hair and also Qhemet Biologics.  I use Whipped Pudding and Shine and Define from Oyin and everything in the sample pack from Qhemet works so great.  I love that line of products, it's the best I've tried so far. http://www.qhemetbiologics.com/conditioners.php - http://www.qhemetbiologics.com/conditioners.php
