Detanglers & Moisturisers

Detanglers & Moisturisers

Afro and curly hair needs moisture every day, and it needs slip to detangle without breaking. This collection of nearly 300 products covers hair lotions, oil moisturisers, leave-in detanglers and detangling tools from ORS, Cantu, Kuza, Curly Kids and more.

Which one do you need?

  • Hair lotion: a daily moisturiser for dry hair, such as an olive oil lotion.
  • Detangling spray: light and quick for knots, popular for children.
  • Leave-in conditioner: creamier, for wash day and thick hair.
  • Detangling brush or dryer attachment: tools that separate hair with less pulling.

Common questions

How do I keep afro hair moisturised? Layer water or a water-based leave-in first, then a cream, then a little oil or butter to seal. Refresh every day or two.

Why is my hair dry an hour after moisturising? It may need sealing with an oil, or there may be build-up stopping moisture getting in. Clarify, then start again.

Should I detangle wet or dry? Damp with product in, never bone dry.

Detanglers & Moisturisers FAQs

How do I detangle without breakage?
Apply a detangler to damp hair, work in sections and comb from the ends up to the roots with a wide tooth comb.
How often should I moisturise my hair?
Whenever it feels dry. Curly and coily hair often needs moisture every day or every few days.
What is the difference between a hair lotion and a hair cream?
Lotion is lighter and absorbs quickly. Cream is thicker and suits coarse or very dry hair.
