Finding the right products for curly hair can feel overwhelming with so many options available. The truth is, curly hair has unique needs—it requires moisture, definition, and gentle care to thrive. Here's your complete guide to the best natural hair products specifically formulated for curls, coils, and waves.
Why Curly Hair Needs Special Care
Curly hair is naturally drier than straight hair because the oils from your scalp have a harder time traveling down the twists and turns of each strand. This means curly hair needs extra moisture, gentle cleansing, and products that enhance curl definition without weighing hair down or causing buildup.

The Perfect Curly Hair Wash Day Routine
Follow this step-by-step routine for healthy, defined curls every wash day:
Step 1: Pre-Poo Treatment
Apply Re-DO PrePoo (matched to your porosity) to dry hair. Detangle gently from ends to roots and leave on for 15-30 minutes. This protects your hair from the drying effects of shampooing.
Step 2: Cleanse
Use GrowPoo Moisturizing Shampoo for regular wash days, or GrowPoo Clarifying Shampoo once a month to remove buildup. Focus on your scalp and let the suds rinse through your strands.
Step 3: Deep Condition
Apply The Condish (Protein) if your curls need strength, or The Condish (Protein Free) if they need moisture. Cover with a plastic cap and sit under a hooded dryer for 30 minutes, then rinse with cool water.
Step 4: Apply Leave-In
On soaking wet hair, apply Hair Dew Leave In matched to your porosity level. Use praying hands method to smooth it through your hair.
Step 5: Add Moisture
Layer Mega Mangrow Moisture Milk over your leave-in for extra hydration and softness.
Step 6: Define and Set
Apply Curling Custard Gel (matched to your porosity) using the rake and shake method or finger coiling for maximum definition. For extra hold on edges, use Grow Glaze Flax Gel & Edge Control.
Step 7: Dry
Air dry or use a diffuser on low heat. Once completely dry, scrunch out any gel cast for soft, bouncy curls.
Choosing Products by Porosity
Your hair's porosity level determines which products will work best for your curls. Not sure of your porosity? Check out our Hair Porosity Guide.
Low Porosity Curls
Low porosity hair has tightly closed cuticles and needs lightweight products that won't cause buildup:
- Hair Dew - Low Porosity Leave In
- Curling Custard Gel Low to Medium Porosity
- Stimulating Scalp Beverage LOW POROSITY
Medium Porosity Curls
Medium porosity hair is balanced and responds well to most products:
- Mega Mangrow Moisture Milk
- Curling Custard Gel Low to Medium Porosity
- Stimulating Scalp Beverage - Medium Porosity
High Porosity Curls
High porosity hair needs heavier products to seal in moisture:
- Hair Dew – Medium/High Porosity Leave In
- Curling Custard Gel Medium to High Porosity
- Vegan Texture Butter
- Stimulating Scalp Beverage – High
Essential Styling Techniques for Curly Hair
The Praying Hands Method
Smooth products between your palms and glide them down sections of hair. This method reduces frizz and creates smooth, defined curls.
Rake and Shake
Rake products through with your fingers, then shake each section to encourage curl formation. Perfect for looser curl patterns.
Finger Coiling
Wrap small sections of hair around your finger to create tight, uniform curls. Time-consuming but gives maximum definition.
Shingling
Apply gel to small sections and smooth from root to tip. Creates very defined, separated curls.
Nighttime Care for Curly Hair
Protect your curls while you sleep to extend your style and prevent breakage:
- Sleep on a Satin Pillow Case to reduce friction
- Use Satin Head Wraps to protect your style
- Pineapple your hair (high, loose ponytail) to preserve curls
- Refresh in the morning with water and a bit of leave-in
