Can anyone recommend a leave-in (or rinse out) conditioner with essential oils as the main ingredients -- particularly jojoba oils? I used to make my shampoo many years ago, using essential oils, and my hair was so beautiful -- all of the time. I am simply too busy -- juggling an executive level career, two beautiful children and a dream husband -- to have time to labor over the stove making my own hair care products. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Can you please tell me where can a black women, who chooses to wear her natural hair go for information. And no, I'm not mixed with anything, just a black women with natural, beautiful kinky hair. There never seems to be any information on this blog relevant for kinky African American hair... the most prevelant black hair type.

I wear my hair natural. A really good natural shampoo and conditioner combination is from Alaffia. Their products feature unrefined shea butter and other natural oils. I bought it at Whole Foods, but it's also available on their web site at Alaffia.com. For a leave-in conditioner, I like the Organics Leave-in Liquid Hair Mayonnaise by Africa's Best. Some other really good natural hair products are available at MyHoneyChild.com.

Infusium is the "leave-in I believe in", because, as a mom of 3 little "tenderheaded" girls with THICK, TANGLY when wet hair, this conditioner was a true GODSEND! the comb just "glides thru" hair when it is applied after shampooing, before drying...I also love it for myself, it comes in a variety of formulas, like moisturizing, color treated, etc... Can u tell I Really like this stuff? lol... It also strengthens the hair cuticles, helping hair to grow strong.

ms jessies baby butter cream is the best leave in everyday moisturizer that I have ever used. I have natural hair it leaves it soft smelling good, and very moist not greasy like carols daughter. It can be used again and again.
