All natural hair moisturizer/curl activator recommendation.

[Opulence]

I have been using Sebastian Wet for my wash and go natural hair days, and it really brings out my curls, but it's very drying for my hair (i think it contains alcohol) Summer is here and I know I am going to be wearing my wash n go's on the regular but I wanted a more hair healthy alternative.

So I need a an all natural or close to natural hair product i can use to define my curls that won't dry my hair out.

I used Sebastion Wet years ago and it dried me out too. I love Kinky Curly Custard.
The Shea Moisture Curl Smoothie that they sell at target works great too. They both give me moisturized, defined curls.

Some people use the Oyin Handmade Honey Hemp Conditioner as a leave in. Darcy's Botanicals has good moisturizers as well as Beauty By Donna Marie, Qhemet Biologics, Afroveda and Karen's Body Beautiful. Hope this helps!

I hate to even recommend this LOL but I have been using Care Free Curl activator for 2 weeks now (no mineral oil - this one contains glycerin) and my hair feels moisturized and my curls look beautiful.

CFC is the truth! Don't sleep on it. S-curl or sta sof fro either. The key word: Glycerin!

Glycerin and aloe juice in a spray bottle is very nice to revive curls. I'm also a KCCC stan big time. I like adding some castor oil and Aubrey Organics White Camelia under it.

I second this one as well as Alba Botanica Leave-in that doubles as a moisturizing hair lotion. They both have all natural ingredients, no mineral oil, no parabens, no petrolatum, no cones.

I've been using a mixture of deep conditioner ( Hairveda) mixed with natural oils ( darcy's or karen's) with some Eco styler & curl activator, mix well and apply to wet hair. Once dry, I slather with Karens hair milk and fluff. I love this mix and it works well for my hair and all day it's moisturized.

Thanks Ladies, this is a great help!

I have been using Hawiian Silky 14 in 1, and it really makes my curls pop! It doesn't leave a sticky residue like I thought, it leaves your hair light and moisturized, with a little bit of hold. It's also cheap! I hope this helps!
