snap.crackle.pop.
lots of us have been there. i can speak for myself and say that i’ve climbed the dryness mountain and came back down with a few scars, BUT, i made it down and now i know how to take it on.
if i can be honest, one of the main reasons when i first went natural that almost had me relapse back to the lye was dry hair. boy oh boy. dry hair will make a sane woman a nut case! and especially a type 4.
who wants to have dry, matted up, little balls on the end of your hair, hair? i know i didn’t and don’t want it now.

these are the certifiable “again & again” top “must have” hair products for naturals and transitioners.
this list will be updated after a poll at the first half of the year.
the list also includes where to find products so that you don’t have to go search for them. most of them you can find in the kisforkinky.com store!
if you are a newbie, you almost can’t go wrong with anything on this list! have a question about the definition of something on this list? check out the dictionary.
be sure to share your experiences with these c♥veted products!
(!!!) = you should at least try this
(O) = may be easier to find online vs. store
(N) = natural / organic
(G) = can be found in local grocery store
(G*) = specialty grocery/health store like whole foods
(S) = sold in salon stores like ulta, or sally, etc.
(H) = use alone or add to homemade moisturizing mix
