Natural hair product recommendations I've seen professional hairstylists talk about on here:

These are not the only products you can buy, a few of these are only found in the US,I'll try & find more international suggestions.

A GUIDE ONLY: use this at your own discretion :)
Recommended products for different styles:
-Wash&Gos = Water-Based Gels/Aloe Based Gels
-Braid/Twist Outs = Wrap Foam
-Direct Heat (Blow Outs/Flat Iron) = Heat Protectant
-Locs = Leave-In Spray
-Box Braids = Leave-In/Braid Spray & Styling Foams to smooth out hair/frizz
Clarifying Shampoos (to be used every 6-8 weeks depending on how active you are):
- Kinky Curly Come Clean
- Malibu Un-Do-Goo

Moisturising Shampoos:
-Redken All Soft Shampoo
-AG Hair Balance Shampoo
-Innersense Hydrating Cream Hair Bath
Conditioners:
-AG Boost Conditioner
-Innersense Hydrating Cream Conditioner

Olaplex (recommended if you heat style e.g. blowdry/flat iron)
-No.3 - Hair Perfector
-No.4 - Shampoo
-No.5 - Conditioner
Styling Gels for Wash & Go’s:
-Uncle Funky’s Daughter Curly Magic
-Kinky Curly Knot Today & Curling Custard (use together)
-Curl Mix Flaxseed Gel
-Flora & Curl Curl Defining Gel
More styling gels:
-Innersense I Create Hold
-Innersense Quiet Calm Curl Control (helps fight humidity)
-The Doux Big Poppa Defining Gel
Styling/Wrap Foams (not the same as mousse!):
-Nairobi Wrapp-It Shine Foaming Lotion
-The Doux Mousse Def Texture Foam
-Design Essentials Platinum Foam
Heat Protectant:
-Blow Dry = CHI Silk Infusion or BioSilk Silk Therapy Serum
-Flat Iron = Matrix Iron Smoother
- Both(I think?) = The Doux Light Weightless Shine Mist
The general rule of thumb for haircare products, you’d want to avoid ones with heavy oils or butters. So ideally products that don’t have these ingredients listed within the first 5 ingredients.
If you want specific product recommendations, you’re going to have to open your purse and purchases guides created by these professionals or book consultations with them.

That's it!
Correction to one of the products: Innersense Quiet Calm is NOT a gel, it's a cream. Kera doesn't suggest this for curlies to purchase. Sorry about the confusion

My UK folk - here are some salons to have a look at that cater to natural/textured/relaxed hair etc.

Still do your due diligence by asking them lots of questions because it's YOUR hair & not theirs.
Let's start with London:
Elite Hair Lounge (locations: Stockwell, Archway & Lewisham) Melissa's Wardrobe goes here so you already know the deal!

EbonyB Salon (location: Highbury & Islington) @/estaregrams goes here & I have friends who speak highly of EbonyB

I know some of my skincare girlies have recently been finding out what licensed natural/textured hairstylists have been advising so I’ll make a thread of all the findings and tips I’ve come across.

A THREAD.
Disclaimer: In all,you can do what you please with the hair on your head. I'm just helping my friends that have asked.If you have any specific questions in regards to what has been reiterated here, please book a consultation with a professional hairstylist.
Side note: pls don’t disrespect professionals (this relates to other fields) on their work or discredit them when they have receipts to show that they know what they’re talking about. They are just trying to help you use fewer products + steps so you can save money and time.
