I’ve been using hair oils long before I went natural. I had my hair relaxed for ten years, but I realized my hair would not grow past my shoulder. One day on a whim,
I decided to do the big chop by cutting all the relaxed part of my hair; I can say it is the most liberating and spontaneous thing I have ever done in my life.
I am in love with my hair in its natural state. I am getting to know my hair as it grows, with all its kinks and coils. Oils that I am using for my hair are Argan oil and *Coconut oil.
Here are some best hair oils for natural hair
