Advice for my daughters hair?

My daughter has very curly hair,. It looks a little dry in the back of her head and I would like to know what any of you do to keep your child's hair looking healthy and slick. She is half puerto rican and half african american. So her hair is smooth but it is a bit nappy too. I want to try to keep natural and not put too many chemicals in her hair. Thanks!

Wow, what a lovely combination!!! :-)

I love these products:

***Organic Root Stimulator - Olive Oil (it's a cream in a bottle, sold at Sally's... I actually like all of their products, but this olive oil cream is wonderful, especially on the kiddies)

**Unrefined 100% shea butter - it's yellow and has little spots in it - that's the only way I can tell... it's thick so a little goes a long way and I use it sparingly, but it seems to work well. I buy it from a lady, so I have not purchased the ones in the stores. Maybe you can look into it.

My mom used coconut oil when I was young, I use it sometimes, it's okay, nothing special.

A detangler usually does the trick too. Just any one. I haven't found one that doesn't necessarily work.

Oh yeah and there's a product, but I can't tell you what it's called, I know you can get it at Sally's and Walmart... it's PINK, the pink bottle, there's one called Light Pink, that one works best for my kids, but doesn't do a thing for my hair (kinky). So try that too.

I wash my hair 1 to 2 x a week, but I see that my kids need their hair washed 2 to 3 times. So be sure to wash it enough.

mayonaise works great..keep it in for about 5 minutes before washing off...howver make sure you get it all out because it doesnt smell the best.

I have the same problem I straighten mine. Not just with iron with ceramic straighteners because they put shine and bounce in your hair.

Use just a little curl activator gel or any motions product, you will only ever need a little touch, those store have it all. Get bouncy curls, no frizz.

i would reccomend Dove Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner, it will leave your hair very soft and it smells really good.

BIOSILK hair products. The silk therapy will make it smooth, shiny, and easy to comb. They also make a gel for gentel styling. If you use the silk therapy followed with the gel, you will give her soft, shiny, curls that maintain thier shape and be rid of most of the frizz.

oh I love this one. It is easy as pie. I use Professional products so you can find these at a salon or you know a friend who does hair for a living.

1.) Shampoo with moisturizing shampoo Design essentials or Kara care hydrating shampoo

2.) Condition with moisturizing conditioner by Design essentials or Kara care hydrating conditioner. Comb conditioner through hair

3.) Design essentials 2n1 this product will give her moisture and bring out the natural curl pattern. Put on hair while it is wet. use generous amount the first time, Then use as needed until next shampoo.

try it and let me know if you like.

ooh i like this question!!

im half black half white and had the same problem for years and years. not only with dry spots but also with frizz.

leave in conditioner is my saviour!! i recommend either AG Fast Food (purple and white bottle) or Abba (brown and tan bottle...this ones all natural). they can be expensive but theyre totally worth it. the keep the frizz down, moisturize, and keep it shiny without getting greasy. i put it in after i shower while im doing my hair and it keeps it nice throughout the day. my advice is to avoid chemicals...theyre terrible in the long run. but leave in conditioners are amazing!! hope that helps.
